Historical Jesus 2: Birth of the Messiah

Drawing on the promises God gave Abraham and David, and the historical events prior to Jesus’ life, we can get an idea of what messianic expectations were like when Jesus of Nazareth was born.  In this lecture, learn how the birth of the messiah both fulfilled prophecy as well as set the stage for what Jesus’ ministry would be like.  After seeing all of the remarkable events surrounding the birth of this baby, we can’t help but ask the question: “Who will this child grow it to be?”
