LOOK UP YOUR HISTORY BOOKS
AND … SEARCH … SEARCH … …
We have all read, and
studied during our school-days, about, Henry VIII, about Julius Caesar, about
Hannibal, Alexander the Great, Stalin, Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, and a host of
other renowned, famous or notorious people.
Have you ever stopped to
think about the fact that we got to know about these people, and their doings,
only when they reached adulthood. We know very little about their childhood,
and, much less about their birth. Imagine going a step backward. Has anyone of
us ever read any thing about them, before their birth? Or any news before they
were born? In short, is there any record that
their birth ever pre-announced?
You can look up the pages of
History, using a magnifying glass to help you. You will not find any
pre-announcement about the birth of Alexander, Caesar, Herod, Lenin or any
other person. These people became famous or notorious when they reached
adulthood.
In the History of humanity,
only one person was pre-announced, His birth was foretold exactly on the day of
conception.
It was foretold that He was to be great. So much so, the reigning
king was afraid that the pre-announced might topple his kingdom and usurp his
crown. As a consequence he tried to murder Him, but only the innocent babes died.
He did not manage to get rid of this pre-announced personality.
Yes, the Birth of Baby Jesus
was foretold to His Mother by a Divine .Messenger. Of all the billions of billions of humans
born, since the foundation of the world, no birth was ever announced beforehand.
We can even say that hundreds of years before His Birth, it was prophesied,
foretold by Prophets. And every prophecy was accomplished. So, we must admit,
this Jesus Christ is someone very special.
The whole of the Old
Testament Books all point to one focal point, to one direction, to one event;
and that was the Birth of Jesus and subsequently His death.
