December 25, 2015: Nativity of the Lord--Christmas Day

Throughout Advent, as through the centuries before Christ's birth, the people of God heard prophecies foretelling the coming of the Lord, as the beginning of Hebrews states. It continues to say that now God has made His greatest revelation to us, in the appearance of His Son.

Jesus Christ reveals to us the glory of the Father, as He, very God, comes to dwell among us.  His coming reconciles us to God, as we are made righteous again in our relationship with God by the birth of God into our hearts.  This Manifestation of God is truly reason for rejoicing, as God has given us His greatest gift.
