What Child is this?
I'll be preaching, " What Child is This?" as we focus on the best gift ever given, the Savior, Christ the Lord. As men seek to answer that question, some say Jesus is a "good teacher", but good teachers don't claim to be God. Some say He's a "good example" but good examples don't hang around prostitutes, drunks, and dirty politicians. Some say He's a "religious madman" , but madmen don't speak the kind of words He spoke, nor do they draw women and children to themselves. Others say that Jesus was a "religious fake" , but fakes don't rise from the dead. Some say He was a "phantom" , but phantoms don't have flesh to crucify and blood to spill. Still some have said that He was "only a myth" but myths don't set the calendar for history. What child is this?
