“But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.” (Galatians 4:4-5)
People are getting ready for Christmas. Stores are crowded, lights are strung, trees are decorated and mantles are adorned with “stockings that have been hung by the chimney with care.”
That first Christmas came and went with most of the world being unaware. It was “when the fullness of time was come.”God never consulted with the Bethlehem Chamber of Commerce to see if it suited the merchants and the inn keeper.
That first Christmas saw God give the Greatest Gift ever given for any occasion, the gift of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. When the gift becomes ours by faith, we become His by redeeming grace. Have a wonderful Christmas this year.
