- Introduction
- Luke 2:11 (NAS) For today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
- Luke 1:1-4 (NLT) 1Many people have set out to write accounts about the events that have been fulfilled among us.2They used the eyewitness reports circulating among us from the early disciples.3Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write a careful account for you, most honorable Theophilus,4so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught.
- Luke 2:1-5 (NLT) 1At that time the Roman emperor, Augustus, decreed that a census should be taken throughout the Roman Empire.2This was the first census taken when Quirinius was governor of Syria. 2(This was the first census taken when Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3All returned to their own ancestral towns to register for this census. 4And because Joseph was a descendant of King David, he had to go to Bethlehem in Judea, David’s ancient home. He traveled there from the village of Nazareth in Galilee. 5He took with him Mary, his fiancée, who was now obviously pregnant.
- John 8:58 (NAS) Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am."
- John 8:12 (NAS) Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."
- Matt. 24:35 (NAS) "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
- Matt 18:20 (NAS) "For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."
- John 15:15 (NLT) I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn't confide in His slaves. Now you are My friends, since I have told you everything the Father told Me.
