Christmas is often celebrated with joy, generosity, and tradition — yet many miss the profound reason behind it. Why did God become a man?
In this Christmas message, we explore seven biblical reasons for the incarnation of Christ, grounded in Scripture and centred on the gospel. We see that Jesus became a man to fulfil the law, to mediate between God and man, to die as a substitute for sinners, to serve as our High Priest, to restore the image of God in us, to become the firstfruits of a renewed humanity, and to adopt us into God’s family.
The incarnation is not merely about God reaching down to humanity — it is about God humbling Himself, dwelling among us, and accomplishing our salvation. Through Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, sinners can be reconciled to God, forgiven, and made new.
This message invites you to consider who Jesus truly is, why He came, and how you are called to respond — not just at Christmas, but with your whole life.
