10th Day of Light

In our devotion today I want to talk about the perfection of the light Jesus Christ. Not only was he God as we talked about yesterday. But he was perfect without sin. The Bible says that God made him a body. This body did not receive any DNA or cells from human beings such as Joseph or Mary. But the Holy Ghost made Jesus a perfect, sinless body. His perfection was not in his looks or how handsome he was. The Bible says in Isaiah 53:2-3 there was no comeliness about him. He came as a humble servant yet sinless for you and me. That is why he is called the second man Adam. As God formed Adam a body in Genesis, so God for his Son made a body, Hebrews 10:5. Because a perfect Lamb had to be slain for the sins of mankind, on a cruel rugged cross, he would die for us all. That is the light that we celebrate that drives out the darkness that sets men's souls free. At Christmas time we celebrate a sinless child who came to take our sins and to redeem us for eternity.
Father help us to realize the power of Jesus name and the power of his death because he was the sinless Lamb who took our sins and set us free, in Jesus name Amen.
