C. the Jews, carries to# ggnaafpfy hmk to Adaa, “tha tgthip ot §11 men”. or A vnwHic— TTie starting pblhf in our record ot Hhe histerteal Jeans is His in* carnation. His advent into the world in which we live. How did he come into the world? , Was his birth miraculous, or was it as that of Abraham and Isaac, and the prophets? Blatthew tolls ns that his birth was miraculous, that he was born of a virgin, even as the anelent prophet had promised (Ipa. 7:14). “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. And they shall call his name Immanuel (Matt. 1:23). It would be difficult for any one with even a slight knowledge of the original language, In which the New Testament was written, to tall to get Matthew’s point with reference to the birth of Jesus, namely, that It was mira culous. In th^ighth verse of the first chapter Ip says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise; When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit". Now the phrase "of the Holy Spirit” means, more literally, “out of the Holy Spirit”. The preposition “of” is used to trans late the Greek preposition "ek” which is always used with the ablative case and which never varies from the original meaning “out of”, and Implies a “previous position" within a given boundary (Robertson). In other words, Jesus was begotten of the Holy Spirit. . His genesis Is not of “fleshly” origin. He has no earth ly father.

There are eome. olFeeuree, and the number is in nO wise smal^ Who would tale out the eupey- natnral element with regard to the birth of Jtons. They wbnld not have hia birth to he miracu- louB in that he was bom "of a virgin”, and in that he was con ceived "of the Holy Ghost”, But the record remains, ai(d all the events ot hie life corroborate Matthew's account of his birth. A HOLT MifiSIOlt— What was Jesus’ mission In coming Into the world? Why did h|come? Can the answer to such a question be succinctly stated? ' It can. Matthew telle us that he came Into the world to "save his people from their sins”: “And she shall bring forth a son; and thou Shalt call his name Jesus; for It is he that shall have his people from their sons” (Matt. 1:21). Paul, likewise, in his letter to Timothy, sets forth the mission of Jesus in similar terms. Says he, "Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief” I Tim. 1:15). One cannot understand the character and life of Jesus apart from this basic interpretation of his Saviorhood. He came into the world to "saye” sinners. He came for this purpose and for this alone. Wherever he went, throughout all the days of his public ministry, he was engaged in this “saving business”. He was forever busy with the matter of lifting up the fallen and restoring to society those who had become social and moral outcasts. He told his disciples that they were , to carry on his mission in bis ab sence, and to spend and be spent in the conservation of his world wide redemptive enterprise. They were to go ufto all the world in their attempt to give the Gospel unto “every creature”. All man kind must have the opportunity of laying hold of his redemptive love, by faUh. He held up to them'the’“wdfld” ah'the “field” (Matt. 13:28). It is so easy for churches and for Sunday schools and Sunday school workers to lose sight of this basic mission of Jesus. It is so easy for moral and spiritual I energies to be "dissipated” in dealing with secondary matters. As we engage in our “Centennial Crusade”, as Southern Baptists, let us above all things strive to be used by Christ in his "saving” Mission. Let us seek to become soul-winners! THE EVIL WORLD— The world into which Jesus was born was an evil world. That is why Jesus was born into it. It needed to be “saved”. Paul, a contemporary of Jesus, in speak ing of it in his letter to the Philippians reminded his fellow- Chrlstlans that they were living in the midst of a generation crooked and perverse” and for that reason they must shine “as spiritual stars”. There were missions of slaves in the Roman Empire during the days of Jesus. To the Romans, their empire was the world! All roads lead, so far as they were concerned, to Rome! Through out the far-flung provinces of the mighty empire, tough rulers en forced the decrees of Caesar Au gustus (B.C.-A.D. 14) backed by his formidable army of perhaps three hundred and fifty thousand men. In Judea was to be found Herod the Great, a pretty provin cial kind who was kept in power by the strong arm ot the Roman Emperor. It was Indeed a dark and uninviting picture—the world into which Jesus was born, and his pathway was to be one of suffering and shame. But that was all the more reason for h!s coming. His mission was a "saving” one, and no thought of self, not even the sufferings of death, could deflect him from his holy enterprise. THE HAND OF GOD— Throughout Matthew’s account of the coming of Jesus into the world, one is able to see in bold outline the mighty hand of Qod. Event upon event is shaped by him as the way is prepared for his Son to begin his public minis try. It was “an angel of the Lord” that appeared to Joseph, per suading him that Mary was of child by the Holy Spirit, and con vincing him that he should pro ceed' with his marriage as prenrl- ously planned. It was God who warned the Wise-nien, “in a dream’* not to return to Herod, but. to depart Into their own country another way, to the end that the Chrlift- chUd might be spared destruction at the hands of evil Herod.
