Right from time the world has been in gross darkness,where people murder, commit adultery, covet, and do all sorts of perverseness without remorse. Then The Creator looked and was perplexed, seriously angry with humanity, and He regretted ever creating man. So He thought of eradicating man from planet earth because He could not withstand their sins.
Then He saw a faithful man, distinguished from the rest, he was righteous before the creator, because his ways was pure, his name is Noah. God told Noah all He had in mind, destroying the earth with a great Flood, but sparing him and his family including some animals, preserving two species of all kinds of animals. But aw would this be possible? God told Noah to build a big ark to contain his entire family and the animals.
God destroyed the earth, then after the great flood, Noah and his family are to replenish the earth and form the nations. So God covenanted with Noah not to destroy the earth with flood ever again in the history of man, so He set up rainbow as a sign and remembrance of the covenant He had. But with this, after people increased on the planet earth, they never stopped doing all sorts of evil in the sight of God, Then God chose a man called Abram,he had a wife named Sarai, but they had no child. Then God changed his name to Abraham, his wife to Sarah, He promised to make him great and a father of many nations and through him the nations of the world would be blessed. So God blessed him with a child of promise, Isaac, so through him Isreal came to be(a third generation after Isaac) from there the family grew large to become a community and God loved them and cared for them more than any people on the planet earth.
Then God gave them laws to abide by and make them distinguished from the people of the world. So He sent prophets to put them through the path and ways of God, but still they never kept the entire law, so when ever the people go against God law, they sin, they would slaughter lamb to appease God and to make them right with Him, they do this occasionally when ever they commit sin. But the blood of lamb could not save this people from the wrath of God from coming to them when they go against God's law. He thought why is it difficult for this people to obey my laws, so He decided to come down Himself in human form to feel what they feel about the law, to fulfill the laws himself and abolished it since they can't fulfil the law and to make atonement for their sin once and for all by being a Lamb for slaughter for the remission of sin, He didn't only want to do it for this set of people, Isreal, but for the whole world so they can benefit from his love and compassion He had for them.
So He came through a virgin by the power of the Holy Ghost( His birth was not through the fussion of a male sperm and female egg). So after more then 33yr after is birth, He gave Himself to be slaughter by man so He may through His blood redeem the world that is meant to be destroyed, that whosover believe Him would not perish but have eternal life. His name is Jesus Christ, He died over 2000 yrs ago for the whole world so whosover believe in Him would live and not die, even after the person exit this world to eternity, will live in heaven with Him and not perish in hell. Pls if you are yet to believe Him and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour Pls do before its too late.
Today we are celebrating him because He gave His life for you and me. Thank You Jesus.!
