The Hope of Christmas

God knows all about the cracks in our world and in our lives—even in the deepest parts of our hearts and minds. That’s why Jesus came to show us where real security is to be found.

Jesus came into this broken world to rescue us—a world so broken that many of us don’t even feel that we need rescuing. We don’t realise this because we are all living our own way, and remain separated from God. So Jesus, the mighty God, became a man and came to earth. He lived the life we should have lived and died the death we deserved, so that all the things we had done wrong would not be held against us.

Those who put their faith in Jesus and in what he did for us, and ask for his forgiveness, can be restored to a perfect relationship with God, now and forever.

That’s the hope of Christmas: it gives us a new foundation for our lives, one that rests not on what we need to do, but on Jesus alone.
