Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.

Everything about the birth and life of Jesus pointed to the truth that He was the Lamb of God. John the Baptist said it right when he boldly stated, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”

Even from the womb, John knew that this child was the eternal Son of God. Luke records of John, “…the babe leaped in her womb.” John knew that Jesus was more than a carpenter, so He proclaimed to the world that Jesus would be God’s Lamb to take away sins.

So when we look at the babe in the manger, we are not looking at just another child. We see the Son of God. The Angel said, “…thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”

Remember that Jesus came as the Saviour of the World. As God, he alone was worthy to take away our sins. So, let us heed the words of the Psalmist, “O come, let us worship and bow down: Let us knee before the Lord our maker.”
