God became human to rescue us and offer the gift of salvation.

Jesus calls us to repentance, so that He can rule over our lives with wisdom and power.

Jesus came to reveal Himself as a servant, and give us an example to follow.

Who is Jesus and why did he come to Earth?

What does the future hold for us? Is 2014 going to be a good year? We can live with the assumption that things are continually on the upswing. Maybe last year was tough, but next year will be better. The Magi were optimistic as well, but maybe not the way we are. Their optimism was not based on the world improving itself and the Roman developing and evolving into a glorious nation of peace and tranquility. They saw that the ruling powers and kingdoms are ultimately headed in the wrong direction. The only hope and optimism for a bright future was born in Bethlehem - the One the Magi were led to by the star. Only in the Kingdom of the Son of Man will the world know peace - a peace and a Kingdom that will never end! And the Saints of God will rule there in perfect peace with their King!

What attitude should Christians have to all the hype of Christmas?

I want you to consider just what happened on that night in Bethlehem - do you know HOW MUCH Prophecy was fulfilled.. and what the odds are that they would come to pass in ONE person?!! JEHOVAH IS GOD

Questions about Christmas. Is it good? Is it true? Is it important.

Jesus..A greater love story than any Hollywood romance movie, a rescue plan put into action thousands of years ago. All through Biblical history prophecy and events have pointed towards Christ. Ra unpacks Israelite history to show us the precision and wonder of God's greatest love story rescue plan.

When the earth was only beginning, mankind (Adam&Eve), chose the darkness. God then put his greatest plan into action...Christ's birth was prophesied..He would be the light coming into the world! Phil shares with us about how we may lovingly show this light to others this Christmas season

As we think of what Christ has done for us, and what started with His birth, we think today of what He gave up and what He deserves from us.

The first advent brought the promise of peace, and the second advent will bring the reality of peace.

The Magi found Jesus because they were searching for Him. God revealed Himself to them and they responded with a faith that led them forward. Are we seeking Jesus? If we truly seek Him, we will find Him!

He came to REDEEM us.
