A Child Is Born

Isaiah 9:6 (ESV)

For to us a child is born,

to us a son is given;

and the government shall be upon his shoulder,

and his name shall be called

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Jesus is the first child born of God. The Son of Man and the Son of God. 

Each one of us who receives the Holy Spirit is reborn as a child in the kingdom of heaven. The gift of His grace allows us to become sons of God. When we celebrate the birth of Jesus, we should give thanks for the supernatural reality of our own rebirth. 

We follow in His steps as a son of man who has become a son of God. We shall be with Him.
