...the name that is above all names, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven and under the earth. Philippians 2: 9-10
The angel Gabriel visited Mary and then Joseph to tell them of the amazing news of their miraculous baby. Gabriel said His name would be Jesus, a nod to both His identity and what His mission on earth would be. Jesus means 'God saves.'
Jesus came to save each one of us from our sins. Sin is anything that we say, do, or think that goes against what God wants. Sin separates us from God, and Jesus came to close that gap. Sin is a disease that has been passed down through every generation of mankind. We have all been born as and live as sinners.
But, Jesus. Jesus was born as a baby in a manger so He could live on earth, walk as a human, hurt as a human, laugh and love as a human, and die as a sacrifice in our place.
Someday, every knee will bow at the mention of the name that was once uttered by an angel.
Do you know Him?
