Jesus Came and Lowered Himself to Find Us

(Luke 2:1-20)

Overseer Sung-Hyun Kim

Jesus
is the Savior and Christ
who was sent by God
for the world’s sake.
When God sent Him
to the world,
God revealed
His love and compassion
for sinners who seek His mercy
– it is limitless, great and deep.
God’s Son
lowered Himself to the utmost
for this,
and He not only came to the world
in man’s likeness,
but chose to have very humble
social status and living conditions,
and sacrificed everything that was His.
○ This was solely to find
those who were weak, in despair
and had nothing to rely on
in the world.
○ It was to call sinners who sincerely repent
and grant them favor,
and give them eternal hope
and courage to overcome the world.
○ In this way,
the birth of Jesus, the Son of God,
testifies plainly and precisely to
everything sincere about God.
※ Jesus
is the only hope who
we can trust in forever.
