Matt. 1:18-25, (or Sunday, December 21. i M?t week’? lesson dealt with fear;' today’s, with security, which can kdeliv.er us from fear only as «e |re secure in Jesus Christ by • truss And faith in Him. Jesus Christ is a divine being whbse cdmftig was the consummation of God'A plan for the redemption of mankind. ajid He is still here. V.|B. “Now the birth of Jesus Chriit was on this wise: When hi? mother Mary had been bethrothed ' to Joseph, before- they came together she was found with child of tjie Holy Spirit.” Mary was Jesui' mother; hence, he waa truly man-SThe Holy Spirit was his,father; Hence, he was truly God. He was i-be God-man. V.lO. “And Joseph, her husband, a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public examplfe, was minded to put her aways privily.” Joseph, being kind,, merciful, and just, cpuld not subject Mary to public shame—death 7 by stoning—so he planned to give her she bilL of \ divorcement requirep by law. If we have a clear conscience God will protect; our reputation. V. 20. “But when he thought on these: things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared jto him in a dreaip, saying, Joseph, thou son kof David, fear not to take unto thee Mary 1 , thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit;’’ When we look thoughtfully at a perplexing subject and know not what to do next, then God will direct our way. if we are trusting Him. Mary'? body had been prepared pure and holy that Jesus be 77' -7 7 '7. ..... ■ 7y— The way to overcome trouble and worry is to develop a fight attitude toward them. It is a race for mastety. If troubles, and worry master you, thAn yob are on the way to defeat. If an attempt to mastef them is made, then you are on tim road to victory. This reducesptself to an attitude, state, of mil d that must be cultivated and which may take time and patienc?.

qualified tor His great work. I V-. 21. “And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his I name Jesus; for it is he that shall ' save his people from thbir sins.” Jesus was not just a leader, a teacher, a great person; he was \ the Savibuxj to rid us of our sins, the guilt of which is eVer with us till removed by His power of forgiveness, permitting His love to ’; enter our lives and flow out into those of others. capie to t make us new to make a new w-orld. Only His presence can : dojt. ( V 5.22,23. “Now all this is come to pass that it might be fulfilled i which was spok,en by the kord ; through the prophet, saying. Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth, a son, And they BhaU call his name Immanuel; which 'is, being interpreted, God with\ us.” God reads the future, knows what will happen, and so makes His prophecies accordingly.. We celebrate Christmas not just because Jesus ijcame into the world but because h© is with us today—”Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Christ wants to be born anew in our hearts Christpias. V. 24. “And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of th? Lord commanded him, and took unto hin? wife.” We are impressed by , Joseph’s faith and quick obendilence to divine command. All distrust and perplexity vanished. Joseph and Mary could now begin to nurture their Child wif'h a sense of privilege and responsibility ajid aWe'. V. 25. “And knew, her nbt she had brought forth her first-born sop: and he called his name Je : sus.” It is evident from this verse that Mary remained a virgin till Jesus was born, and that she had other children by Joseph. —Based oil copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Christian Education.
