Some 2,000 years ago, the most important birth of all history occurred.
God sent His only begotten Son, fully God and fully man, to be naturally born from a woman.
Isaiah 9:6
6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
At this time, King Herod heard of His birth and decreed that every innocent boy under the age of 2 years would be put to death. (Matthew 2:16-18)
Yet ultimately Joseph and Mary fled Bethlehem to save Jesus' life, and life prevailed indeed. 3 decades later, Jesus was once again sentenced to death by the cross, and conquered the grave 3 days later.
Today, we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior.
Because we know, ultimately, He will prevail.
From the Colorado Right To Life family to yours, Merry Christmas!
