How it Happened

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise:

When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

Matthew 1:18-19


How it Happened

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying,

Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee

Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Matthew 1:20-21


How it Happened

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Matthew 1:22-23


How it Happened

Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

and said unto her,

And the angel came in unto her, and said,

Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Luke 1: 26-28


How it Happened

And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

Luke 1:29-31

And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Luke 1:32-33


How it Happened

Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

And the angel answered and said unto her,

The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.

And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, ....

Luke 2:1-4


How it Happened

....

unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem;

And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

How it affects us

Christmas is about Jesus Christ and you.

At, Christmas, we celebrate the birth of Jesus but he was born for a reason: to give you and me eternal life.

He says anyone who believes in him has this eternal life


How it affects us

Eternal life is the life of God.

The indestructible, and imperishable and faultless life of God and it's given freely to all who would believe.

He came to die for us that we may have this life.

And if you accept his Lordship believing that God raised him from the dead you shall be saved.
