Jesus was born in a stable one night. He came to die a criminal’s death to take on the punishment for our sins. The beginning of the story (Christmas) is wonderful and great but its the ending that can save us and that is why we celebrate! It truly is about the cross, about our sin, its about Jesus coming to be born once so that we can be alive in Christ. Jesus was nailed to that cross, and if we think about it, every drop of blood He shed should have been ours but He took our place. |
