After the Birth of Jesus

One night many years ago there was a great tragedy that occurred that broke the hearts of many mothers and fathers in the town of Bethlehem. That night their hopes and dreams for their baby boys were destroyed as a jealous and sinful king named Herod ordered all to be done away with.

Why? Because word had spread of a special male child that had been born in Bethlehem who was to be the forever ruler of all peoples. Where sin is involved, so can its desire to protect its interest, and that is what it did that night, and still attempts to do today. When sin is threatened, its first response is to deceive and destroy truth.

There are those who do not understand the importance of a life with the true God. Today there are many who wander through life without the true knowledge of a relationship with this Jesus, the son of God. They do not yet know their true identity, for we are all known by God. But for us to know Him, we must know His Son. And then be given that gift of an eternal name, to be written in the book of heaven as one who will eternally be His.

Do you really? Can you safely say that if your life was taken today that you would fully be secure for eternity with Jesus? You must be serious about this decision.
