Although Jesus became the baby at Bethlehem, we should never see Him as a little child in relation to God the Father and the Spirit. Bethlehem was not a beginning for Jesus as our birth is for us. He is the eternal Son having no beginning and no ending and co-equal with the Father and the Spirit. On the cross He was not an unwilling victim, but He was fulfilling what God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit had planned together before the world began, in order to bring about this costly salvation for His children. Such salvation could not be obtained in any other way, the Sinless One must give His life for the salvation of the lost. This teaching of the cross is to many foolishness and to many a stumbling block and they will coin crass phrases to belittle it, but for those who will believe, it is the pure water of life. I hope reading this blesses you today.
