“God so loved the world that He gave His only Son…” —John 3; Matthew 1, & 2; Luke 2

A common element in all forms of human story telling is a
main character who has something to prove or earn_
King Herod was trying to prove that the king’s throne was his


Striving to prove our worth is a recipe for disaster
*King Herod has innocent babies murdered to secure his reign ____


EMMANUEL is a miracle and it means…
“God with us”


God’s LOVE is the reason “Emmanuel” exists
• God came to be with us because
otherwise we could never be “with Him” in our sin
• Jesus came to Earth to be a living, breathing
love letter_ from our Creator


Without understanding_ & believing God’s Grace,
we can’t really experience God’s love


This Christmas don’t focus on what gifts are
exchanging with one another, but on what GOD
exchanged Jesus to give you.
