Jesus coming is good news for everyone, no matter who you are. The word became flesh and moved into the neighborhood. (John 1) He was born in a garage, to humble parents, with a rough crowd (shepherds) as prominent guests. The way He came, gives us insight as to who he includes (Luke 2:8-20)
Jesus coming reveals who God is in a unique way. In the past God revealed himself to man through His world (Psalm 19:1-6) (burning bush) or His Word (Psalm 19:7-14) (prophets), through Jesus, God is revealed in a totally new way, flesh and blood.
