Behold the Lamb--The Christmas Story
400 years of silence does not mean that God was not at work. Rarely discussed but critical to the story are those 400 years. Silence finally broken by the cry of a baby born in Bethlehem.
The background to a story is often as interesting as the story. As we endeavor to see the full tall tale of the coming Messiah, we begin to see God clearly directing traffic all along History. The pieces begin to fall into place....
The story continues.
The story of Christmas is not just Luke 2 and Matthew 1, rather it is the story of redemption. This story is not in just 2 chapters, but rather it is told throughout all of history. The Old Testament is a reminder that God keeps His promises.
