God’s Unstoppable Love

As we explore the meaning of Christmas, we must discuss the motivation behind the entire story. Why would God, who is perfectly self-sufficient and glorious, send His only Son into this messy world? The answer is simple, powerful, and utterly life-changing: Love.

The Nativity wasn't a political move or a tactical strategy; it was the most dramatic act of love ever performed. The whole reason for the manger, the star, and the eventual cross is captured in that one famous verse:

John 3:16 (KJV): "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."
