A Babe in a Manger?

Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. http://read.ly/Heb2.14.NKJV

Did Jesus come to be a little baby on a bed of straw, forever sat on your mantel? NO!!!

Jesus came with a purpose and a task. He came to destroy the power of death and release us from the bondage of Sin. He didn't do that in a manger as a babe, or on a hillside as a teacher. He did it as an innocent man dying on the cross for you, in your place. And He didn't do it on accident either, it was a choice he made, because he lives you.

So remember, Christmas is about the God of the universe invading Earth to save you, by dying on the cross. That's the true meaning of Christmas.
