Show Notes

In today’s episode Professor Davies (Grandfather) delves into the theological concept of the "fullness of time," referring to the divinely appointed moment of Jesus' birth, as described in Galatians 4:4-5. In a sermon, he explores ten reasons why Jesus' birth occurred at a significant and precise time in history. These reasons include the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, the era of Pax Romana, and the extensive Roman road network aiding travel and the spread of the Gospel.

 

Professor Davies concludes by reflecting on how Christmas continues to arrive at the right time each year, offering hope, fostering generosity, and uniting people amidst global challenges and personal struggles. Christmas is celebrated not just for its traditions but as a beacon of light and a testament to hope and love.
