To worship God is the supreme duty of any child of God. To learn to worship is our greatest need. To worship in spirit and in truth is our ultimate privilege. That’s the bottom line. We’re saved to worship. You would be better if you worshiped better. Why? Very simply, we become like what we worship.
REVEALING JESUS' MISSION BEYOND THE MANGER
Christmas’ true meaning is often overshadowed by the glitz and glamor of beautiful decorations, gifts, and parties. For the followers of Jesus Christ, the true meaning of Christmas began long before the manger scene in Bethlehem. By studying the Old and New Testaments, we can know who this Child is and why He came to Earth.
Jesus Himself told His disciples that all of Scripture testifies of who He is, but each of us must decide what we understand and believe about our Savior. When we know the author and the hero of the Bible, we can better understand all of what the Bible is saying to us as His followers. He did not come from Heaven down to Earth so we could celebrate a happy holiday; He came with an intentional ministry of redemption, revelation, and restoration—that is a great reason to celebrate!
