Christmas Revelation - The Infinite Becomes Finite

What's your favorite Christmas song? Both Jay and Tom agree that "Joy to the World" is each of their absolute favorite. However, research tells us it was not intended to be a Christmas song. Written in 1719 by Isaac Watts, it was meant to be a celebration of the Messiah's Second Coming. Read the lyrics with that in mind and you'll see what we mean. However, in 1833, Lowell Mason created a melody for the verses and it soon became a celebration of Jesus' first coming as well. And if you haven't heard the story Jay loves to tell at this time of year about "Wally's Christmas Play," you'll be touched by the message. The infinite becomes finite. How can God become man? Our discussion today lays out the explanation, giving us what we need to maintain or change our focus of the celebration of Immanuel, God with us, that many heathen around the world participate in. The over 300 Old Testament prophecies Jesus fulfilled, should cause every person to stop and consider that His birth, death, and resurrection wasn't just so we could give each other gifts and eat more desserts than we should. "The Reason For the Season" isn''t just a nice platitude. We're celebrating the birthday of our soon returning King."
