God in the Flesh: Immanuel

New Beginnings Lutheran Church

God in the Flesh: Immanuel

December 10, 2023 • Pastor Joe Sullivan • Matthew 1:20–23

What is the birth of Jesus about? It’s about God being with us. Through the birth of Jesus, we see the lengths God will go to in order to be with us come hell or high water, life and even death. Nothing will separate us from His love.

God in the Flesh: Savior

December 3, 2023 • Pastor Joe Sullivan • Matthew 1:20–21

What is the birth of Jesus about? It’s about salvation. Christ the Savior is born! The birth of baby Jesus highlights the fact that we are sinners needing to be saved. What stands out even more is that Jesus is our Savior who came to save us!

God in the Flesh: King

December 17, 2023 • Pastor Joe Sullivan • Matthew 2:1–2

What is the birth of Jesus about? It's about His reign. We likely fail to grasp what “King Jesus” means, for we live in a representative government, after all. King Jesus is not elected; we don’t vote for Him. He rules. Period.

God in the Flesh: Lord

December 24, 2023 • Pastor Joe Sullivan • Matthew 2:11, Philippians 2:10–11

What is the birth of Jesus about? It’s about every knee bowing and every tongue confessing that Jesus is Lord! The birth of Jesus is the prequel to the parousia--known only by God the Father Himself. Prepare the way of the Lord!
