The Birth Of Life

In our previous message “Magnitude Of The Coming Of Christ” we learned how Jesus Christ affects everything, and everyone in the human family, with eternal consequences! Today’s message for Christmas Sunday shall highlight another biblical paradox as we examine the  Biblical reality of “The Birth Of Life” the impact of Christmas on the whole world and the souls of all people.

Old Testament Scripture Reading Psalms 2:1 – 7 (KJV)

Psa 2:1  Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

Psa 2:2  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

Psa 2:3  Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

Psa 2:4  He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

Psa 2:5  Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

Psa 2:6  Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

Psa 2:7  I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

New Testament Scripture Reading: Hebrews 1:1 – 6 (KJV)

Heb 1:1  God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

Heb 1:2  Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

Heb 1:3  Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Heb 1:4  Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

Heb 1:5  For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

Heb 1:6  And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.

Transforming Power Statements / Special Scripture Notes:

Psalms 2:7 I will declare the decree: The LORD hath said unto me, Thou are My Son; this day have I begotten thee

Acts 13:33 God has fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that He raised up Jesus again; as it is written in the second Psalm, Thou are My Son; this day have I begotten thee

Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said He at any time, Thou are My Son; this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?

1) Psalms 2 is actually about the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, as stated in Acts 13, but this would only be possible because Jesus first had to be born in the flesh to fulfill this amazing role as mediator between God The Father and all of humanity!

2) Adam was created, and the life of God was breathed into him and he became a living soul, and then fell into sin; bringing death and destruction upon all mankind who were in his loins, so that it was necessary for God The Son to be born of “a human being” but not to have the blood of Adam, which was corrupted with sin.

3) Through the extreme wisdom and omniscience of God, as He dealt with the “means of acquiring human flesh” without sin; through the virgin birth of Jesus Christ; which addressed the first thing in Holy Scripture that was “not good” (Genesis 2:18) attaining, therefore, The Birth Of Life; through the reality of Christmas, Calvary, and the empty tomb!
