What is there to doubt? ... God came


What is there to doubt
He came
God came
as  the Christ child
He who walked on water
and commanded demons to be gone
He who made the blind see
and the crippled to walk
He who made the sick well
God came
as a servant to the masses
The One who knew no sin
took the sins of all mankind
upon Himself
He was rejected,
despised,
judged
condemned
He took our guilt
to the cross
at Calvary
He bore the shame
that was ours alone
God came
to live and walk
in the world
as we,
yes,
but never of the world,
for He was not.
God came
as Jesus
the baby born to the Virgin Mary
the man destined to die
to save the human race …
from death
… the death of selfishness
of idolatry
of witchcraft
of hatred
of jealousy
of anger
of lies
of adultery
of uncleanness
of murder
of envy
of drunkenness
and countless more
to save us from ourselves
and bring us
to a new life
in Him,
The One who came
who lived
who died
who was buried
who rose again
who lives.
God alone
came.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”  John 3:16-17 NKJV
