There is More to This Christmas Story...
Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be barren is in her sixth month. ~ Luke 1:36
God chooses not just one woman to make way for His desired redemption of mankind, He chooses two! No words between God and man for 400 years, and suddenly He's speaking to women about having babies. You gotta love it. Totally the unexpected ~ or was it? The Old Testament has over 300 references to the coming Messiah.
And six months before His birth, John the Baptist is born to prepare people's hearts for Christ's imminent birth. John means "the Lord is gracious," and Jesus means, "the Lord saves." They made a great tag team.
