In December large parts of the world shift their focus to the Christmas holidays. And while to many it has become all about commerce and very little about Jesus’ birth, we should still seize the opportunity to remind people that, although not technically in December, Jesus did come to this earth to save lost humanity. His miraculous, humble incarnation as a fully human baby while still remaining fully God, growing up and living among us, His public ministry, death, and resurrection—all highlight the boundless and powerful reality of God’s deep love for each person. He truly is our Immanuel—God with us. – Jonathan Walter, ARt editor
The Temple is ready
Pure
And dedicated.
All is in order
According to the divine Plan of old.
And so comes the angel
To announce
That in the most sacred space
Of this virgin’s womb
Will dwell
For a time
The Shekinah Glory
The holy Presence
Of Yeshua
The Messiah.
