The Joy of Salvation | 12/22/24

Imagine being found guilty of a heinous crime, and instead of being rightfully punished you are set free and given a reward that will greatly bless the rest of your life.  That is the message of Christmas!  Of all the things that bring us joy during this season from an earthly practical sense, making it the most wonderful time of the year, the greatest blessing of all is that our sins are forgiven and we will be rewarded with the paradise of heaven someday.  All of it given to us by grace, none of it deserved, and that alone makes the joy beyond expression.  The birth of Jesus set all of this in motion.
