An Old Testament Christmas - Pastors Jeff Evans, Teresa Breeding, Sam Pharris, Dennis Daniels

What if Christmas didn't begin in a manger at all? This profound exploration takes us back thousands of years before Jesus was born, revealing that the story of Christmas is woven throughout the Old Testament in stunning detail. We discover that Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies, with mathematicians calculating that fulfilling just eight would be a statistical impossibility—1 in 10 with 17 zeros after it. From Genesis 3:15, where God promises that the seed of woman would crush the serpent's head, to Isaiah's prophecy of a virgin conceiving Emmanuel, we see God's redemptive plan unfolding across centuries. The virgin birth, the lineage of David, the humble town of Bethlehem—each detail was foretold with precision. What makes this particularly powerful is understanding that prophecy is what separates Christianity from every other religion. We can trust Jesus is who He claimed to be because His very existence fulfilled promises made generations before. This Christmas, we're invited to see beyond the nativity scene to the grand narrative of redemption that spans all of human history. The child in the manger wasn't just a baby—He was the culmination of God's faithfulness across millennia, the answer to prayers whispered by generations who watched and waited in hope.
