The Cross and the Crib.

We must not let it slip by that Jesus was born to die, He was the final sacrifice for Sin and His death and resurrection would do away with the need of the Temple sacrifices.

Mary was told about these events after Jesus was circumcised in the Jerusalem Temple by two old folks whom God had allowed to see the Messiah of Israel and the Savior of the World.

Simeon and Annah had waited a long time, but because of their devotion to God in a godless and near pagan nation.

Luke 2:21-39,  1 Corinthians 1:23,  Hebrews 12:1-3,  1 Peter 4:14.

Jesus the Jewish Messiah and the Saviour of the world in now born. Matthew 1:18-25, Luke 2:6-7.

Jesus is born not in a palace, not in luxury, not even at home. He arrives in a smelly stable, wrapped up in cloths and placed in a feeding trough.  Every Christmas is the same, many people have given up on the meaning of the story, they would rather get drunk, eat to much and party.

Others will be alone, some suicidal some will get sick drunk or use drugs to cover up their pain. But the answers to our problems are only to be found in Jesus. Many Christians will enjoy the season, but they never even try to read the Bible for themselves, relying on ‘Christian radio and TV to fill them. Let alone actually apply their faith into action daily.

That is why Jesus was born in a stable and died on a cross. What will you do this Christmas with your life?
