The Christmas Easter Connection

Christ was born a baby
God Immanuel Messiah
Christ grew up
In wisdom and stature and favor with God and man
Christ lived the perfect life
Under the Law fulfilling the Law
Christ was made the perfect sacrifice
On behalf of those unable so to live
Christ was raised from the dead
That we who have been dead in our trespasses and sins
Might by repentant grace and faith be made alive together with Him
His coming the first time as a helpless infant was in the fullness of time
His coming the second time as reigning triumphant Messiah King of kings and Lord of lords will also be in the fullness of time
