And now, let’s think of the day of our Master. The reading of the text brings it to a spot in His life that where He had become very popular. He was born with a illegitimate accusation against Him, and He came in the way of a stable. Could you imagine it? And inveiled He was Emmanuel. God was in Him. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. He was a King of glory came down and tabernacled among men, making Himself subject to death, that He might taste death for all the human race; in Spirit He could not. So God created a blood cell in the womb of Mary that brought forth the Son Christ Jesus. And God dwelt in that body. Jehovah tabernacled in the body of the Son, which was the Son of God. And here He came through a mang—by a barn door. He lived a humble life, no place to lay His head. And He went out of the world through capital punishment, in shame and disgrace for us. And now, He was the Ensign that was to be lifted up. And I am so thankful tonight that He did that for me and for you. And now that after all these years we have His favor and fellowship with us by…Skeptics has arose up and many Bob Ingersolls and so forth has tried to condemn the Word, and tried to say, “Well, it was this a way, and that way, and it was days past.” But we as Christian Holy Ghost filled people have the Holy Ghost as a Witness of the Word. See? The Holy Spirit is a Witness.
