We remember baby Jesus at this time of the year , cute , innocent , non-confronting , and palatable .
However , don't ever forget that this BABY is actually all powerful , all wise , all glorious , all just , all holy , altogether lovely , and supremely ALL SAVIOUR !
Understand a biblical definition of who this SAVIOUR 'JESUS 'really is , and underline His attributes ( of which there are many ),particularly emphasising the truth from John 1 : 17 "FOR THE LAW WAS GIVEN THROUGH MOSES; GRACE & TRUTH CAME THROUGH JESUS CHRIST ."
Jesus came to save us from ourselves ( all love & grace ) , but equally He came as 'truth incarnate ' , you cannot have one aspect of His character without the other . GRACE & TRUTH , TRUTH & GRACE .
Both aspects are needed , both are required to be present in our own lives ....we need His gracious presence to restore & revive us , as much as we need His holy truth as the standard by which we must live .
This Christmas don't delete or be distracted from the whole truth of the coming of JESUS , this is 'THE ONE 'you cannot ignore ..... you can accept Him ..... you can reject Him.... but you will never be able to ignore this SAVIOUR of the whole world .
Do yourself and all around you an Eternal favour , worship JESUS for all that He is and will be for all eternity.
Marney ( praying for my readers this Christmas .)
