How God presents the Royal Savior to us—in crude, abject humility--is a striking contrast and major indictment of how the church presents Jesus to the world, especially at Christmas: Disney-like performance, expensive staging, Las Vegas showmanship, snappy images on a screen, dazzling lights, artificial smoke, a Six-Flags-over-Jesus atmosphere, performers who advertise THEIR talents, and hero worship. Wait a minute. What ever happened to God’s method of presenting His Son and our Savior?

God Didn’t Create Us to be Farmers: Genesis 2:15

The Sun Points to the Son: Genesis 1:14

Few people gaze up at the sun or moon and recognize them for what God intended them to be. Most folk just see the sun and moon as a sources of light for the day and night. But God gave the sun and moon an equally important purpose. Our English translations, though, mask this purpose and create confusion. I’d like to unmask that purpose by analyzing the Hebrew text of Genesis 1:14 and clear up the confusion.
