I love how God chose to press this point home as He inspired the Word & the many millions of worship songs which have celebrated and proclaimed this truth over the past 2000 years.
Jesus is Christ THE Lord! The Only God who has wrapped Himself in humanity and come from heaven to live among us, and show us just how much God truly loves each one of us!
Good news this Christmas, and every day!!
