Twenty Five Days of Christmas Devotions预览

These are the words of a good man, centuries before Jesus came to this earth. In the midst of unprecedented pain and suffering, he realized the need for a mediator who could bring peace between fallen man and a holy God. There had to be an impartial mediator, who had the righteousness and holiness of God and yet had the frailty of mankind in order to empathize with them.

So in the fulness of time, Jesus came into this world, conceived of the Holy Spirit, and born of a woman. Fully God and fully man, He was “Immanuel” – God with us. Connected with the Heavenly Father yet accessible to every human. He paid the price for our sins and rose victorious, to be the perfect mediator and advocate between God and mankind. We who were far off can now enjoy peace with God through Christ Jesus, our Lord.
