Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ - The Birth and Death of Jesus

Published: Oct. 25, 2023, 2 a.m.

The birth of Jesus was a very monumental time because prior to his birth, the nation of Israel was in disarray. The people were waiting for a political leader to arise. Jesus was born to fulfill His promise of redeeming His people. 

Jesus' birth illustrates humility where because of where He was born and under what circumstances. His lineage was also important because He was coming from a line of broken people. Jesus' birth destroyed the barrier to race and gender. His birth was for all the people. 

In the same way that his birth was so important, his death was even more important. Jesus had to die because the penalty of sin is death. He had to be a perfect sacrifice to redeem His kingdom. He could have just restarted the world over but instead He redeemed us.

Tune in to listen to our in depth discussion on the birth and death of Jesus and why these are such important events that still impact our lives today.
