| 0:00.0 | All right, good morning and welcome. We're so glad that you're joining with us online. |
| 0:05.0 | We're currently in the book of Hebrews, but today is going to be our Christmas service and also our Christmas sermon. |
| 0:16.0 | And so I'd like to invite you to join me in the Gospel of Matthew, the first chapter, |
| 0:23.2 | and I'll begin reading in verse 18. |
| 0:26.0 | Why don't those of you who are able stand, you can follow along as I read. |
| 0:31.8 | If not where you're seated is fine. |
| 0:35.8 | Matthew, by the Holy Spirit records the account beginning in verse 18 by the Holy Spirit he |
| 0:44.1 | writes, this is how the birth of Jesus, the Messiah, came about. His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, |

| 2:30.3 | home as his wife. But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son, |
| 2:40.6 | and he gave him the name Jesus, the name above all other names, the only name given among men whereby we must be saved. Let's pray if |
