A man's biogrphy is written after he dies, or near the end of his life. The sole exception to this is Jesus Christ. His biography was written centuries before He came to earth. Prophets foretold His miraculous birth. They describe the glorious person we would come to worship and adore.
At this season, many or their prophecies are recounted in some detail. We sing, O Little Town of Bethlehem, remembering how Micah prophesied the place of the Messiah's birth. We remember Isaiah had called Him Prince of Peace, when we recall the angelic message.
One prophecy is often overlooked, however.Daniel included this significant prediction: In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people.... It will itself endure forever (Daniel 2: 44, New International Version).
The famous Scottish preacher, James Steward, explained, The Christian religion does not begins at the throne of God. What we Christians worship is not a human life that climed up to God by a process of dedication. It is God coming down into humanity by incarnation. It is the one faith realistic enough, down to earth enough, to make an impact either on the Roman Empire of the first century or the miseries and hopes of the world in the twentieth century (The Christ of the Earliest Christians).
Christians are part of the world's only eduring kingdom. We serve the King of kings. Our faith has its source at the throne of the God who created the universe. There it culminates as well. Our Lord is more that the babe in Bethlehem's manger. He is the all-wise teacher who confounded the religious leaders of His day; he is the all-powerful Master who healed the sick, calmed the strom, and raised the dead. He is the all-loving Savior who died for our sins on Calvary, but was resurrected three days later. He is the Lord. He is King over all kings, now and evermore.
Like the magi of old, wise men today kneel before Him in humble and grateful worship. We can sing with Isaac Watts,
Joy to the world! the Lord is come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,
And heav'n and nature sing.
His kingdom will endure forever! *
