Matt 2:1-23 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem...
Luke 2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Now that we have heard Brother Branham explain why God chose Bethlehem, who the mysterious Magi were, and how the Angel Gabriel came to Joseph and the virgin Mary, Brother Branham recaps it all in this Message, God’s Wrapped Gift.
We follow the lineage of Rahab and Salma, down through the ages, to the Lord Jesus. We learn that writings of the prophet Daniel were fresh in the minds of the Magi as they followed the Star to Bethlehem. We learn from Isaiah about the return of the Jews to their homeland on the wings of an eagle. In this Message, Brother Branham shows us Jesus Christ from Genesis, to His birth in a manger, and on to this very day.
As the sun sets on the mountains of Judea, the Bible will come alive when we close our eyes and see the reflection of the Star of Bethlehem in Mary’s eyes. We will travel with the Magi through Jerusalem and shout out, “Where is He that’s born King of the Jews!” We will hear how that old, dirty rag that wrapped up our Lord Jesus can still be found today, among the world’s outcast. But thanks to God’s prophet, we can raise that cloth off and find Eternal Life in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
The tape, God’s Wrapped Gift, is truly a gift from God.
