Lesson 33, Part 2: Birth of Christ - Part 2

• The incarnation of Christ is the clearest revelation of God
• What was mankind’s response?

So Jesus had to be born of a virgin not to receive a sin nature and had to live a sinless life. Hear a definition of imputation and understand that when someone believes in Christ as their Savior divine righteousness is imputed to them. Hear the importance of the missing "article" in Mary's genealogy in Luke.

Lesson 32, Part 2: Who Do You Say That I AM? - Part 2

Previously …

• Jesus was the “wrong” type of Messiah
• They refused to believe that the Messiah is Yahweh
• Some Jews believed
• His disciples, others
• Some Gentiles believed, too
• What is our reaction to Jesus’ claims?

What happened when the Messiah arrived on this earth and what was the response of the Jews?
