Every year people spend a month (or more) with Christmas on their minds. They decorate their homes - inside and out - and buy gifts for loved ones in anticipation of one singular day on the calendar. Christian and non-Christian alike celebrate together in this way.
While the traditions and excitement are fun and certainly not sinful, the depth of the day we celebrate is easily lost on us. Even as faithful Christians, many of us fly right past the fact that we are celebrating the day God became a man. We have lost the wonder of God in flesh.
In fact, without the truth that Jesus is God, Christmas is meaningless. It could be a celebration of the birth of a great man - even a sacrificial man - but if He was not God, He has not saved us.
In this series, we will be spending the month on the important doctrine of the deity of Jesus - it truly is the wonder of it all.--In week one, we study Jesus as the Word - the preexisting, objective reason of all life - and the exact imprint of God the Father. And how Jesus is our only hope.
