Joseph and Mary Travel to Bethlehem


Luke 2:1-5, "Caesar Augustus issued a decree for a census to be taken of the entire Roman world. Everyone went to his own town to register. So Joseph went from Nazareth to Bethlehem to register with Mary who was great with child." 

Some months before, an angel appeared to Mary:



Luke 1:30-35, "An angel said to Mary, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with GOD. You will be with child and give birth to a Child, a Son. Name Him Jesus. He will be Great and called the Son of the Most High. The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. The Holy One to be born will be the Son of GOD.'"



Matthew 1:18-23, "Mary was pledged to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. The angel of the LORD appeared to Joseph in a dream telling him to take Mary as his wife for Who is conceived  in her is from the Holy Spirit. He is to be called Jesus because He will save His people from there sins."

This is the fulfilled prophesy of Isaiah 7:14, "Therefore the LORD Himself will give you a sign. The virgin will be with Child and will give birth to a Son and will call Him Immanuel  (which means GOD with us.)" Jesus Is GOD in the flesh, come to redeem mankind who will accept Him as LORD and Savior. Almighty GOD has made it possible for you to know Him! All you need do is ask Him for the forgiveness of you sins. His Holy Spirit will then confirm in you His salvation! Then His glorious promises will begin to fill your life with His Love, grace, and mercy! Hallelujah! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
