Nobody Special 142 | Justin Bieber’s Faith and Jesus In The Flesh
Advent is a time to look at the first coming of Jesus Christ in eager expectation of the second. At the core of the Gospel is the proclamation that Jesus came to be with us as one of us, so that we might be with Him.
As we kick of this Christmas/Advent season, we give props to Justin Bieber for being more open and honest about his faith and public declaration that Jesus loves us. Then we go on to talk about the announcement from the angel Gabriel to Mary that she would become pregnant with child. God took on flesh and choose to be with us as both Fully God and Fully Man and died on the cross for our sins to establish our eternity.
In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary. And he came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you!” But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end. (Luke 1:26-33, ESV)
