Christmas Eve - SERIES: King Jesus
Have you ever wondered why we give gifts at Christmas? In the Bible we see people giving gifts to Jesus (the Magi in Matthew 2). We also see God giving a gift to us at Christmas in Jesus (John 3:16; 1 John 4:9). Becoming a Christian is a gift exchange with Jesus, the King of the Universe. We wrap up all of our junk, our sin, our despair, our hurt—and we give it to him, as ugly as it might be. In return, he wraps up and gives to us his perfect righteousness, peace, and salvation. He loves to receive our gift, and delights to give us his.
