Christmas Day 2012 Welcome to Grace Church and Happy Christmas!

Christmas Day 2012 All this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us). Matthew 1 v

Christmas Day 2012

Mary – The Underdog “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour…he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts; he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate; he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty.” Luke 1 v

Christmas Day 2012 The Shepherds – Normal People God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. 1 Corinthians 1 v 27 – 29

Christmas Day 2012 The Wise Men – Humble and Obedient “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 18 v 3 – 4 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.” Revelation 3 v 20

Christmas Day 2012 Christmas reminds us that: God has reached down to us Immanuel, God is now with us, through Jesus God understands us where we are at How will you respond to Jesus today?
