This powerful message takes us back to the revolutionary words Jesus spoke when He taught us to pray: 'Our Father in heaven.' What seems like a simple opening reveals something absolutely astounding—the God of all creation doesn't want us to approach Him as distant subjects before a king, but as beloved children climbing into their Father's lap. We discover how Jesus, through His birth in that humble manger, opened a door that had been closed since Eden. The coming of Christ wasn't just a beautiful story; it was God's adoption papers written in blood and sealed with resurrection power. We learn that in Roman culture, adoption was permanent and transformative—all old debts were canceled, all former ties were severed, and the adopted child received full inheritance rights that could never be revoked. This is precisely what happens when we receive Christ. Our identity shifts from our past failures to God's promises, from performance-based religion to grace-filled relationship. The message challenges us with an urgent question: have we opened the gift that sits before us, wrapped in the love of Jesus? Or are we like someone at Christmas who leaves their most precious present unopened? The truth is, God is not the Father of everyone—only those who have been adopted through faith in Jesus can call Him 'Daddy.' This Christmas, we're reminded that heaven wasn't made for us by accident; it's our intended home, and the invitation to come inside from the cold is extended with open arms.
