Luke 1:30-33 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. (31) And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. (32) He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: (33) And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
Immanuel-God with us, Almighty God
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
God chose to become flesh and dwell among men in the person of Jesus Christ. He came from glory to fulfill all of the law in His perfection and then to go to the Cross and take the punishment for all the sins of mankind.
This is a demonstration of God's love and grace that is so hard for us to comprehend. Someone said, "Jesus would have come and taken the punishment for sin if only one person would believe."
Actually he would have done it if not one person believed. His love and His grace are so strong that He wanted to give us a chance.
When I say give us a chance I guess I should be saying give us the chance because there is no other name given among men whereby you must be saved. There is only one way for man to be reconciled to God and that is through Jesus and His payment for our sins at Calvary.
