    “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”   — John 3:16 The Gospels of Matthew and Luke share with us the story of Jesus’ birth.  The Apostle John doesn’t offer historical details about the nativity, but he does give us a valuable theological framework.  He clarifies once and for all why the Heavenly Father sent His Son into our world.
    God sent Jesus to reveal Himself.
     
    Through Jesus, God put His heart of love on display.
    • The wideness of His  love.
    • The depth of His love.

    Away With the Manger
    Series: (All)
    Luke 2:8-12
    The manger, referring to the feeding trough in which Mary’s newborn child was laid, played a relatively minor role in the Savior’s birth.  And yet, it represents for us the humble nature of the incarnation, and also the kind of Messiah Jesus came to be.  But why is it that some people, even among those who love to celebrate the holiday of Christmas, prefer to do it without acknowledging the full gospel message?
    • For some, the incarnation seems an insult to their intelligence.
    • For some, the incarnation is an affront to their ideals.
    • For some, the incarnation poses a challenge to their authority.
    Will you try to celebrate Christmas without the Christ of scripture, or will you open your heart to the fullness of the “good news of great joy?”

    Isaiah 9:2-7 Many centuries before Jesus was born in Bethlehem, His coming was foretold by the prophet Isaiah.  Great expectations were certainly set for the One who would bring hope to a shattered land and a broken people.  He is still the all-sufficient hope even for us today. He is our . . .

    Dining with Jesus at Simon’s House
    Luke 7:36-50 This story from the Gospel of Luke uses the setting of a dinner party at the home of Simon the Pharisee to illustrate a clear contrast between those who truly love Jesus and those who don’t.  Jesus’ short parable reveals what it is that fills our hearts with eternal gratitude.
    • Our gratitude is based on an acknowledgement of debt.
    • Our gratitude is based on the realization that we are unable to pay.
    • Our gratitude is grounded in our faith in a loving God who accepts us, forgives us, transforms us, and offers His eternal salvation to us—because He loves us!
    Jesus is The Messiah Worthy of Our Gratitude!

    Dining with Jesus at Emmaus
    Luke 24:13-35 Those who loved and followed Jesus were at an all-time emotional low after his crucifixion and burial.  Even after his resurrection, there was much confusion and lack of faith.  But Jesus is the risen Lord who loves to reveal himself!  On the road to Emmaus, Jesus walked and talked with two of his disciples, but it was not until he broke bread with them that they truly recognized him.
    • While always in our midst, Jesus often goes unrecognized.  (24:13-16)
    • The result of our ignorance is discouragement.  (17-24)
    • Jesus gives us insight into his Heavenly Father’s message.  (25-27)
    • The more we commune with Jesus, the more of himself he reveals.  (28-32)
    • When Jesus reveals himself, there is always a message to share. (33-35)
    Jesus is The Messiah Who Reveals!
