Christmas Questions

In ten days, we will be celebrating the most significant holiday in history, the incarnation that gives hope to all. Most of us think we know the events leading up to and including the event and what took place after.

These could be used with your children and or following Christmas dinner. You will need a bible in hand to check the answers from Luke 1-2. You could read Luke 1-2:21 before answering the questions.

but have eternal life. John 3:16

Jesus was punished that we may be forgiven.
Jesus was wounded that we may be healed.
Jesus was made sin that we may be righteous.
Jesus died that we might be made alive.
Jesus was made poor that we may be rich. (prosper)
Jesus was shamed that we might receive glory.

Good Friday 2025
