The biblical account is still the supreme authority on the subject of Christmas.

The symbolism of light of Chanukah and Christmas intersect in a profound way.

The Bible is a cohesive message outlining God’s redemptive plan for humanity.

Isaiah’s message pierces the darkness of despair like a pinpoint of light at the end of a long tunnel.

That His humanity is coupled with absolute deity defines the uniqueness of the Incarnation.

Contrary to artistic depictions, no aura or halo distinguished Jesus from any other newborn.

His humanity did not diminish Jesus’ deity. And, His deity in no way invalidated His humanity.

Most scenarios base calculations on Gabriel’s appearance to Zacharias.

God is not detached from creation or surprised by world events.

Gabriel’s messages were unprecedented and confirmed the progression of God’s Messianic plan.
