The Second Sunday After Christmas

This week we pick up the story of Christmas in the palace of Jerusalem where a power-hungry king named Herod fears the birth of a child in Bethlehem and plots to kill Him. Christ escapes and journeys to Egypt as God’s people of old did also. While the Israelites were unfaithful in their journeys, Christ came to complete what they failed at, so that we, in His faithfulness, might become the righteousness of God in Him. As sons and daughters of God through faith, we are imputed with Christ’s perfect life. No worldly rulers can take away what we have in Jesus
