When the Messiah was born long ago in a faraway manger, the world power system shifted. God's mysterious arrival as a baby inspires awe. The Son of Man defeated the powers of sin and death worldwide, forever, on the cross. He offers us this priceless gift of grace.
During the Christmas season rejoice. Immanuel, God with us, has ushered in his kingdom. God reigns. Therein lies our comfort and joy.
"For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death."Romans 8:2
