Merry Christmas

The omniscient omnipotent uncreated Creator of the universe, eternally unconstrained by time and space, entered into time and space as a baby born in a manger, steadfastly setting His face towards the Cross and dying the most gruesome of deaths for us while we were yet enemies… because He loved us!

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

(Isaiah 9:6 )

Have a glorious Christmas!
