The Christ of Christmas; O, What a Saviour


Listen Later

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life." - John 3:16

 

Have you heard this verse before? Have you thought about it in the context of Christmas? Now, you might be thinking, "Well...that's a very strange thought. While we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus, we’re thinking about His death?"

Well, yes…you cannot separate those two events because it's the very reason Jesus was born. Jesus—who is both God and man—lived an absolutely perfect life…died on the cross for our sins. Why would he do that? Well...it's because He loves you. And that love is so deep, that He would sacrifice His very life for you. When Jesus hung on the cross, He cried out, "Tetelestai," which means "the debt is paid." The Bible says, "The wages of sin is death..." And Christ paid it. All we must do is put our trust in Him.
