HIS
STORY

Gabriel appeared to Mary

Jerusalem
from the Mt of
Olives

"Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a
virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call His name
Immanuel..."
                           (Isaiah 7:14)

And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God
unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a
man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David and the
virgin's name was Mary. And the angel came in unto her, and
said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee:
blessed art thou among women...)
                             (Luke 1:26:28)

"And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And
Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth,
into Judaea, unto the  the city of David, which is called
Bethlehem...and it was, that while they were there, the days
were accomplished that she should be delivered. ."
                        (Luke 2:3-6)
Star of Bethlehem
marks spot where Mary
gave birth...

"And she brought forth her son, and wrapped Him in swaddling
clothes, and laid Him in a manger; because there was no room for
them in the inn."
                              (Luke 2:7)
But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little
among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall He
come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel, whose
goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
(Micah 5:2)

The Prophecy

The Annunciation

His Birth
The Holy City in the time of Jesus

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan, unto John, to be
baptized of him. And Jesus, when He was baptized,went up
straightway out of the water and, lo, the heavens were opened
unto Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove,
and lighting upon Him: and, lo, a voice from Heaven, saying, This
is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
                               (Matthew 3:13-17)

Because of Love

Why did He do this deed, why did I have to sin;
I hear the bang, bang of hammer against wood
Each piercing sound, a cruel blow as
Nail drives inch by painful inch;
My heart laments, the tears do fall
I can no longer stem the flow
I feel the pain, I want to die
Why did they take His life?
Then His words in mind I hear:
“No man taketh it from me, but I lay
it down myself…for if I go not away
the Comforter will not come unto you…”
More comforting words from Isaiah I hear:
“But He was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities;
the chastisement of our peace was upon Him;
and with His stripes we are healed.”
Because of love He did this deed!
How unselfish was my Lord and God
To give His life for my iniquities;
Thank you Jesus for love so great
Fill me with unselfishness;
Help me freely give!

“For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him
should not perish, but have
everlasting life.”
(John 3:16)

Praise the Lord!
