From Isaiah to Jesus
Dec 22, 2024
Summary
In this message, we see how God’s promise to a broken king, “The virgin will conceive and name Him Immanuel,” reveals the ultimate hope for every crisis and the heart of Christmas.
Detail
Right in the middle of Jesus’s genealogy, we find Ahaz, one of the most wicked kings in history. Yet, in a moment of crisis, God sends the prophet Isaiah with a message of hope: “See, the virgin will conceive, have a son, and name him Immanuel.”
This promise not only speaks to Ahaz’s need but also reveals the ultimate solution for every crisis, including ours today.
In this message from The History of Christmas series, we explore how this ancient word shapes the reason we celebrate Christmas now.
