This is one of the most holy days of the year. This is the day we have chosen to celebrate the coming of our savior into the world. Jesus' birth was the physical beginning of our salvation because he came to take the punishment of our sins upon himself. But his birth and our salvation was planned before the foundations of the earth were built (Isaiah 40; 1 Peter 1:17-21; Ephesians 1:4; Matthew 25:34; Hebrews 4:3).
Today we rejoice in the great mercy and grace of God our Father, Jesus our brother and the Holy Spirit our helper, comforter, teacher and guide (Ephesians 1:3-9; John 2Corinthians 1:2-4; John14:26-27, 16:13).
Ip for these reasons it is a great day!
