Hallelujah, What a Savior

It's Christmas Day! One of my most favorite days of the year as we celebrate the arrival of Jesus, who came into the world as a baby to live and die for us, that we might be saved. 

Every year we ponder this mystery, "God in flesh" who humbly came from his home in heaven to live among us. Immanuel.

I never cease to be amazed that His love for humanity compelled Him to do this - to leave heaven, live, die and be resurrected so that the cycle of sin and death would be broken, and thus a way would be made for us to be in relationship with him, now and for all eternity.

Do you know this Savior? Jesus, who we celebrate today: the One who came to seek and save the lost. 

"...if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." 

Romans 10:9 states it clearly ... confess, believe and you will be saved!

"And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord."

Hallelujah, what a Savior! Happy Birthday Jesus!
