Passage: Luke 2:1-7
Continuing in our study of Christ’s birth as recorded in Luke, today we look at three things the account teaches us. One, it shows who was really in power. You could intuit a power struggle between Herod and Jesus, but there was none from God’s perspective. Two, Christ’s birth was a humble birth, but a royal one. And three, Christ’s birth reminds us of His death. Recall that there were wrappings at His birth, and also at His death, for example.
