Around 2000 years ago... God took on human flesh and was born of a virgin on this planet earth. He did this so as to fulfill Isaiah's prophecy of the coming Savior.

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

This child is called "Mighty God". Jesus is God.

Isaiah 7:14

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.(which means 'God is with us')

The burden and guilt of sin was enormous and the people wanted God to rescue them from their sins. But God already promised to send a Savior a long time ago, all the way back in the garden of Eve when Adam and Eve sinned.

Genesis 3:15

And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
he will crush your head,
and you will strike his heel.”

God's promise was fulfilled when Christ was born. And He did rescue His people from their sins.

Matthew 1:21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

God loves the world enough to send a Savior to redeem whoever believes in His promise.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Jesus is the only one who saves! Trust in Him with your life. He is the way, the truth and the life.

And have a merry Christmas

Here's a little message that all need to hear.

You an I have sinned against God. We have lied, stolen, used God's name as a cuss word, lusted, coveted, hated and disobeyed our parents. We cannot change our past. Our evil actions are written recorded in God's mind. No wonder He is so angry at us that He often punishes us in many ways. We have broken God's laws, and thus deserve to go to hell.

But, let us remember, God is Love. God sent His Only Begotten Son, the LORD Jesus Christ. He gave Him as a gift to all mankind. How is He a gift? This Gift promises you that He will forgive of what you have done against Him. God is just. Justice may no longer be targeted at us, who sin against God and do evil everyday.
Justice and it's punishment was instead targeted at Christ. Jesus was the Most Favorite One, of the Father. Yet the Father risked the Life of His Son. That's why He was so severely punished. He was mocked, hated, beaten, rejected, laughed at, spat on, whipped, His hands were pierced and His feet too. Jesus is the free Gift, that anyone can appeal to, and ask, and they may receive Him. Jesus stood in our place, as a representative of mankind, and said "Forgive them".

Jesus died for all mankind without exception, and that includes you.

He has paid the price, the very big price, that you were not able to pay through your own punishment.

God made the moral law, we broke the law, Jesus paid our fine. Right before Jesus died, He said "It is finished". In other words, our debt is paid.

The Father risked the life of His Precious Son, for you. That's the Good News! All what you need to do is respond to God's appeal, or accept the gift that God is wanting to send you. If you say with your mouth "Jesus is my Lord" and believe in your heart that the God raised Jesus from the dead, then you will be saved. Not only that, but this is a LIFELONG commitment. Make your decision and count the cost. It's not gonna be easy. If you come to Christ, then you must deny everything at His feet, that means even your own life. What I mean is that you must prefer Jesus over everything else, and by a high degree. Only then will He raise you up, on wings like eagles. You shall be freed from the bondage of sin. If you are actively doing something that is wrong and immoral, God commands you that you must turn away from them. Turn away from Satan. You know pretty well that they are wrong. Apologize to God, say you're sorry. He will forgive you because Christ willingly shed His blood for you. You don't deserve forgiveness, it's only because God wants to forgive you.
