EP 24: Embarrassing Moments and Tying Strings

It's Christmas Day, so this week -- like the spectre from Charles Dickens' classic tale -- I'm sharing some stories from Christmas past. Stories that entail some embarrassing moments and concentrated efforts to re-tie strings that had been broken.

- “Although He existed in the form of God, he didn’t regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.” - Philippians 2:6-8

- "He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief. Like one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. Surely He took on our infirmities and carried our sorrows; yet we considered Him stricken by God, struck down and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. We all like sheep have gone astray, each one has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid upon Him the iniquity of us all." - Isaiah 53:3-6

- "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." - Romans 6:23

- "In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He lavished upon us...." - Ephesians 1:7-8
