Historical Revealing of Christ

DailyBibleStudy.Org


From the earliest days of human history, a savior was promised. This savior is Jesus Christ. Consistent and tested, predating all other systems of belief invented by man, the promise of the Messiah and Savior has withstood time (over 6000 years), and attack from all directions.

Others will contend that there is no proof, but history is full of proof, as the world around us is proof of a designer and a superior being in God Himself.

All attacks against God and Christ are fabricated and without substance. How can truth be proven wrong?

Truth is the perfect joining of fact with reality, and any attempt to discredit truth is by default, a lie.

Others say that they are the truth, however, no religion, no cult, no system of belief can document its origin or even its existence, apart from human invention. No religion, no cult, no system of belief can produce a deity that will back it up.

Only Christianity has withstood the test of time and the divine revelation that comes only from God.

This is only a partial list of Biblical references, however it provides for your benefit, a certain chronology of the revelation of Jesus Christ, up to His birth, and beyond.

The exact date of His birth is not known, and for good reason. If a date were known, then His purpose may have been lost long ago. So controversy can swirl around His birth date, which reinforces His purpose for coming into this world, which was to provide salvation for us all.

Jesus Christ is the object of our attention, not some date, not some article of clothing, not some dining utensil. Evil will try to make anything else out to be more important than Christ and doctrine, in order to distract us from His purpose, and from our priority in life.

So as we celebrate Christmas, we look to the one for whom our celebration is intended, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, without whom none of us would even exist.

For through Him, our life has been given meaning and purpose. From dust of insignificance, to members of the highest Royal Family in the universe and heaven, a change and opportunity that cannot be matched anywhere else.

You have that opportunity for your very own life.

Before you were born into this world, you had no say about any part of your life. However, being born again, you have every opportunity of defining your next eternal life, through spiritual growth to maturity. With blessings that surpass the imagination, how could anyone pass up on that opportunity?

Please, at the very least, sign up on the free subscription (through the link at the bottom of this page), to the daily bible study, which has been blessed beyond my wildest dreams, being read daily by folks in over 160 countries, and has become the foremost daily study of scripture in all of the world, in our current generation.

And join with me on a daily adventure that will transform your mind and your life, and make your life for all of eternity the greatest adventure of them all. Not to mention the making of your life now, in time, an interesting adventure as well.

From my family to yours, I want to thank everyone who has joined this daily study, to those who will join this study, and especially to our Lord, who has given us all this time in history to be acquainted across the globe on the internet through doctrine. I wish you all a very merry Christmas.
