let's talk about the first coming of
Christ when he came as a baby he came to
bring us
Grace say
Grace Grace is something that the world
cannot
understand they think that Christianity
is a religion you know you do certain
things you do certain worship
then you reach God it's like you go up
the stairs you know you do panents you
do certain things then one day you come
to a place where God accepts you nothing
could be further from the truth God came
down to where we were and some people
have a problem thinking that how can you
say that Jesus is a man but you call him
a he's also God no the problem is not
that you think that Jesus is a man who
calls himself God the thing is this he
is a God who became man
for man to become God is
impossible let me ask you a question can
God become a man supposing that I take a
a walk in the park Wendy and I and uh
another
couple and two ants going for a walk in
the park they're dating and I happen to
step on one of them all right and he's
dead I didn't mean to kill him y'all
don't look at me like that you have done
it all so many of you you have done it
on your way
here amen and and the poor the the poor
other end the other end is carrying away
all right and I'm I'm trying to say hey
hey I I didn't mean to kill your
boyfriend I I really didn't see him and
all that I mean she wouldn't be able to
understand he a she won't be able to
understand what in the world I'm talking
about unless because we a different life
form I'm too high my life form is too
high for the for the end to understand
me so the end only responds with fear if
I can become an
ant just for a while maybe the end will
know my
heart the Bible says that when he was
born his name was called
Emmanuel amen the prophecy of Isaiah one
of his name is Emmanuel which means God
Is With Us Amen in Luke the Bible tells
us she brought forth her firstborn son
and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and
laid him in a Manger because there was
no room for them in the Inn let me just
tell you this that Mary was probably
about 14 15 years
old and she had no
help you know for her to travel all the
way from Nazareth because there was a
census taken during the time of
Augustus and the Bible says that when
when that decree was done for taxation
purpose it's not so much of Taxation at
that time but they wanted the all the
Roman
provinces at that time Israel was under
the Roman rule to register their names
based on their lineage based on their
tribe based on their their family
inheritance so Joseph being from the
Royal line of David Mary Joseph can be
traced back all the way to
Solomon Mary can be traced back to
Nathan both are the sons of
David so the Lord Jesus has a double
claim on the throne of
David but they were in Nazareth at that
time when the census was decreed by the
emperor of Rome they had to make and and
and Mary was Advanced at that time do
you know that she had to make a 75 mile
Journey from Nazareth to
Bethlehem about 75 76 miles now there
are two Bethlehem at that time even
today the other one is seldom heard but
Bethlehem Judah is the one we are
talking about there's another Bethlehem
in in
Galilee just s miles from Nazareth that
is nearer actually but she took a 75
mile Journey All the Way to Bethlehem
Judah Bethlehem
IFH because it was
ordained by God and God spoke to the
mouth of Micah the prophet oh thou
Bethlehem IFH out of you will come the
ruler of
Israel whose foregoing have been
foretold of old that's in Micah prophet
Micah long before Christ was
born and she had no help when she was
giving birth she had no help except for
Joseph I believe that she she washed her
baby she bathed him I believe that she
wrap him in swaddling clothes even when
Israel was in slavery in Egypt the Bible
tells us those slave women actually had
midwives Hebrew midwives to help them
but Mary had none she was all by herself
many of you ladies can appreciate that
you know um being a young girl never
before you know having given birth in
fact the Bible says she's a virgin
prophet Isaiah gave gave a sign he said
the Lord will give you a sign a virgin
will bring forth a son why a virgin well
we going talk about the
blood God made man with blood I have
blood you've got blood God doesn't have
blood God made man blood in fact when
God made
men God called men blood
men amen Adam the word dam is blood in
Hebrew So Adam Adam means liter blood
men the ground from where God took his
body from all right God made that's why
when you die they say dust to dust
because you go back to the dust but
that's not the real you the real you is
a is the spirit and when God made man
God made man like a you know from the
dust of the ground like a house he was
not
mobile sorry mannequin he's like a
mannequin right but God breathed into
man and Man became a living Soul so that
part of man is that breath came from God
and cannot die so when you your heart
stops beating your heart is part of your
body you actually step out of your
house amen now whether you are house
from then on in heaven or your house in
Eternal darkness in Hell the Bible tells
us that's the reason Jesus
came because that part of you cannot die
amen you are
Eternal are you listening God never made
hell for men the Bible says the Lord
Jesus says all right hell was made for
the devil and his angels but if God
extends to you his salvation and you
slap his hand I don't need your love I
don't need your salvation I can manage
all right then you have chosen your
destiny amen the Reason God sent his son
is because in fact if you drop down it
says that there were shepherds in the
field that night and Angel of the Lord
came and they were greatly afraid the
angel said to them don't be afraid for
behold I bring you good tidings of great
joy which shall be to all people for
there is born to you this day in the
city of David in the Royal City a
savior I love to say this a savior not a
lawgiver a savior not a
judge in Hebrew literally that's his
name Jesus Yeshua savior the angel
literally says there is born to you this
day in the city of
David
Yeshua Savior for he will save his
people from their sins now if you say I
got nothing to be you know I I'm cool
Pastor I got nothing to to uh save huh
in in me then all I can say is
this one day you wake up and
realize that one sin to God is worse
than than a lot of sins so the problem
is this when we look at a prostit ude
when we look at people who are drug
pedlers when we look at the terrorists
we see they are big Sinners and no doubt
their sins is great but I tell you this
all of us have sinned and come short of
the glory of God and one sin is enough
to send us to hell so when God pronounce
the name Yeshua Jesus he will save we
don't need another law the law cannot
save us how many of you have kept the
Ten Commandments not outwardly inwardly
as well amen how many of you not
committed adultery maybe you say I've
never committed adultery pastor but in
your mind in your heart have you ever
led the Lord Jesus says if you have led
you have committed adultery amen we put
sin outside the Lord put sin
Insight all of us have sinned in that
way you all of us we need a savior amen
come on the Lord Jesus says you call a
brother in Anger you fool you've in
danger of Hellfire we say that thou
shall not kill as long you don't take a
knife you plunge it to someone that's
murder no the Lord says if you hate
someone you wish him dead you wish her
dead that's Mur so it takes it inward
that makes all of us in fact all of us
broke the Ten
Commandments preach it preach it preach
it man that's good preaching so all of
us Hey listen this is the good news
therefore all of us qualify if we are
all sinners amen then we all qualify for
the
Savior Jesus said one time when they
asked Jesus why do you eat with
publicans the tax collectors for the
Rome for the Roman Empire all right that
there were Tax Collectors he was eating
with them and he was eating with with
prostitutes and all that and they said
you know the Pharisees they have this
holier than thou attitude why do you eat
with them all right it's almost like
don't you know they are dirty and we are
clean you should be spending time with
us the Lord says I did not come to call
the righteous but sinners to repentance
then he said this those who are well
don't need a doctor is those who are
sick so if if the truth is known all of
us are
sick we do not know it you know people
who have outward sin many of them they
are the first to see his grace they are
the first to see his him as Savior but
those of us with cultured sins you know
we don't let it out we are too smart to
let it out we just watch it behind
closed
doors amen Pastor Prince all right so
what I'm trying to say is that all of us
qualify for the Savior if you are a
sinner you qualify you entitled to him
and all that he has done for you can I
have a good amen

Jesus says I come that you might have
life and have it more abundantly so Man
was created to enjoy
life man was Creator to enjoy everything
that God has provided but what does the
devil do the teeth comes to steal every
time you have your joy stolen you have
your health stolen whatever it is is
never never
God majority of the people have no doubt
God has the power
amen the only doubt is that whether God
is willing the leper did not say Lord if
you are
able he did not doubt his ability he
says Lord if you are willing I know you
are able but I'm not sure you're willing
to use your power on my
behalf
just like the woman with the issue of
blood she came trembling all right and
she touched the ham of His Garment he
never says things like this you think
for one moment my garment has power
don't you know it's me and because you
only go for my garment you will not be
healed he will never say that he's a
lord like this you really believe your
finger on my garment will heal you then
your finger on my garment will heal you
he always comes down to our level
according to your faith be it unto you
so at the cross Jesus Christ bore your
sins and watch this he also bore your
diseases you must come to a place where
you know that God hates
sickness that's why God put it on Jesus
At The Cross just as Jesus bore our sins
that God hates Jesus bore our diseases
that God
hates
[Music]
the Bible says if you discern the Lord's
body how it was beaten how it was
battered you have healing for your body
the body was broken for your health for
your healing amen the the blood was shed
for the remission the Forgiveness of
your sins if you have a condition your
body why can't you just take that as
your
medicine and
peror and see the
result and receive more
life and more
abundantly
amen
