The prophet Isaiah chapter 53 verse 5 sums it up. Some 700 years before the birth of Christ.
“But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.”
Grateful for a loving God, our God is quick to forgive and full of mercy. As we celebrate this day I pray we all take time to reflect on what is the reason for this Holiday. To ask Jesus into our lives and to receive what only believing and trusting in Him can give us, true happiness and eternal life! Merry Christmas everyone, thank you for reading.
I love reading the book of Isaiah. Thank you for the quick history lesson. The Bible is so truly amazing. Merry Christmas. I love you dearly. The Wife.
