This will FREAK YOU OUT about the nature of God’s word
I’m I’m sorry I’m blowing up your nativity scene because there was no room in the end. Baby Jesus was probably born in a cave because they were used for stables. They were used for place your animals in. By the way, it says young child. Anybody know how old Jesus possibly was by this time? Say what? >> Two years old.
I’ve decided to take a completely different approach to Christmas. We can pretty much predict Christmas services and that’s why this series is different. And I hope that you have a tremendous time going through this study. And I hope you learned some things about how incredibly committed God displays himself to be for you and I to be in heaven to such great lengths.
Friends, he loves you and he proved it by many infallible proofs. Tonight, uh here’s here is what we’ll do. Much like Sunday, um the the theme of this entire uh four-part series is uh found uh here in the book of Acts. So, let’s uh stand together if you would. And uh it’s only three verses. Uh you can read verse number two together.
But I just love this. You say, “Jack, that’s not a traditional uh Christmas passage.” And I know it’s not, but I told you guys at the beginning before uh last Sunday that we were going to be looking at Christmas with an apologetic, meaning an argumentation. That is an argument from the Bible as to why all these things are true.
Um we’re avoiding the Christmas story and we’re talking about the Christmas facts. And so, as I mentioned last Sunday, the book of Acts is written by none other than our author of the Gospel of Luke. He’s the same guy. And he writes, by the way, Luke’s Gospel to Theophilus as he writes the opening lines to the book of Acts to Theophilus again.
The former account I made to the Theophilus of all that Jesus began both to do and teach. >> The day in which he was taken up after he through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen, >> to whom he also presented himself alive after his suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during 40 days.
