The greatest Christmas blessings are not the gifts wrapped and placed under a Christmas

tree. They are the ones that are wrapped up in Christ. He is the gift, and he was given by God

to you.

The gift doesn't end with salvation through Jesus.

That is simply the beginning of the blessings given to you by the Lord.

Join Scott today for this study, Christmas blessings,

and let your heart be encouraged with scriptural promises of Christ's coming.

The greatest blessing in my life is eternal life. The greatest blessing in my life is that this life is not all there is.

I've been forgiven of my sin.

I have an eternal home in heaven and I have a constant companion

in Jesus Christ. We're looking at so many of these special blessings and we're on the first page

of the New Testament, Matthew chapter 1. We've been looking at the genealogy and so many beautiful

things in it and we've been examining the fact that there are four women listed here in the genealogy and so many beautiful things in it. And we've been examining the fact

that there are four women listed here in the genealogy. And that's very unique, very unique,

because that was not the norm. And yet, aren't you glad that God has no prejudice? Aren't you glad

that the Holy Spirit inspired that Tamar and Rahab and Ruth and Bathsheba's name would be penned right alongside Mary's.

All their backgrounds are different.

Their stories are different.

And yet one thing is true, and that is they were all sinners who needed a Savior.

And that's the one thing we can all identify with.

And we've learned from them something about sinfulness. We're all sinners. We've learned from them something about sinfulness. We're all sinners.

We've learned from them something about significance, and that is we're all loved by God.
