Lesson 33, Part 2: Birth of Christ - Part 2

• When Jesus saves, He also imputes
• For Jesus to be the Savior, He had to be sinless
• Jesus: Son of God and Son of Man
• The incarnation of Christ is the clearest revelation of God
• What was mankind’s response?

Why was it necessary for Jesus to be sinless in order to die for our sins? Listen to this lesson to learn that only someone who was sinless could pay for the sins of all mankind. So Jesus had to be born of a virgin not to receive a sin nature and had to live a sinless life. Hear a definition of imputation and understand that when someone believes in Christ as their Savior divine righteousness is imputed to them. Hear the importance of the missing "article" in Mary's genealogy in Luke.

Lesson 33, Part 1: Birth of Christ - Part 1

Previously ...

• The Jews were expecting two things from God
• The incarnation of Christ: the God-man
• The virgin birth of Christ
• Why a virgin birth? – Part 1

Why was the virgin birth necessary for Christ's birth? Listen to this lesson to learn that men pass down the sin nature to each member of the human race. Since Christ was fully God as well as fully man, He could not have a sin nature in order to qualify to die for the sins of all. Learn the role of the Holy Spirit in the virgin birth and how when anyone believes in Christ they receive the imputation of Christ's righteousness.

The following short video gives you a glimpse of a church in Ukraine where one of our contacts by the name of Vasya has distributed hundreds of our God's Powerful Promises booklet. Many of these people don't have Bibles, so this is a welcome provision for them. 

Dean Bible Ministries has been printing thousands of these booklets in Ukraine in their language ever since the war broke out. Faithful people, like Vasya, have been driving them to locations such as this. This church is located in the town of Kramatorsk which is 15 miles from the war's front lines. Please be in prayer for these people.

Romania

Today, Pastor Dean and Jim Myers spoke at a Roma church in the village of Gulia, Romania which is a Christian Church According to the Gospel Maranatha. Dr. Dean reports being very warmly received and the congregation very much desires for them both to come back soon. The Brethern pastor of the church is looking into transcribing and translating the Light from the Light videos so they can be subtitled in Romanian. 

They have two more churches scheduled for tomorrow in another nearby village.
