Download MP3 (right click to save) There's a moment that officially begins the Christmas season at our house - the night my son and I bring home the Christmas tree. Christmas would be incomplete without a tree! That's sorta how God feels about Christmas. It's incomplete without the tree.
Not the evergreen with the decorations, but the one on Skull Hill...that brutal cross where God's Son completed the mission that began that first Christmas. In God's own words, "Jesus bore our sins in His body on the tree."
Our sinful running of our own lives carries an eternal death penalty which God had every right to let us pay, but God loves you too much to lose you. So, He sent His Son by way of a stable to pay your sin-bill on that tree, and nothing matters more to God than whether or not you put your trust in Jesus to be your Savior from your sin. If you've never begun this life-giving relationship with Jesus, there's someone waiting to talk with you at 888-NEED HIM. References: 1 Peter 2:24 |
