While the letters B.C.E -- (signifying Before the Common Era) have replaced the letters B.C. -- designating the time Before Christ, for the past 2000 years history has been divided into before Jesus was born and after Christ entered the world. Of what other great or notable person can such a thing be said?
Even those who do not embrace Him as Lord cannot deny Jesus' impact on the world. Consider this quote from a well-known scholar:
I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history. -H.G. Wells
Without a doubt the birth of Christ changed history forever. But not just history - the coming of Jesus into the world has changed countless individual lives and continues to do so right up until this very moment.
Jesus' impact on the world continues to this day because He was no mere man; He was God come in the flesh. This is why we worship Him. This is why we honor His entrance into the world.
I believe the service we have planned for this Sunday at The Bridge will lift your spirit and remind you of the true meaning of Christmas. Be sure to join us for any of our three services.
Our services times are 8:30, 10:00 and 11:30 a.m.
Have a blessed and a truly Christ-filled Christmas!
Bo
