God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
[The virgin birth] graphically shows that salvation comes “from above” and that the source of our hope and confidence lies in the living God who entered into human history in the historical figure of Jesus Christ. The virgin birth marks off the origin of Christ from the human race just as his end is marked off by the resurrection
Consider the irony. At a certain point in time the One who was creator, would actually become part of His creation. The sustainer of the world would be killed by the hands He was sustaining. The One who was loved by the Father, would be predetermined to be rejected by the Father. The One who knew no sin, would become sin. And the One predestined to die for sinners, would be predestined before there ever was sin. First Peter 1:20, says He “has appeared in these last times for the sake of you.” The One who needs nothing, would come to the aid of those who hated Him and purchase a people for Himself.
Hope my Mother - in - law doesn't mind :-) This is my MIL's recipe for
Christmas sugar cookies - obviously you can use any shape you want :-) We
usually make these in large batches a month or so before Christmas and
freeze them until they are needed for whatever event we are attending that
requires us to bring cookies
:-) They thaw wonderfully!

remaining ingredients. Add to shortening mixture.
Roll out gently on floured surface. Use floured cookie cutters. Bake 400
degrees Farenheit for about 10 minutes or until done.
