The cross, the fulfilment of the manger (Prof Kobus de Smidt)

That is the message of Christmas. God wants his people to experience hope and to share it with the world: the hope that has world-transforming power and which God revealed the first Christmas morning. It is more than just anticipation of what God will do in future. The new heaven is not only a future destiny but also a hidden dimension of our ordinary lives. And like Joseph and Mary, God wants to use you!
