Our Lord wa not a Gentile, He wa 18 mini ter of the circumci ion, a the cripture puts it: He wa a Jew, an I raelite, and ··He came unto Hi own." The world did not know our Lord prior to Hi incarnation, even o I rael failed to recognize Him however we read in ver e 12 of John 1, "BUT as many a received Him, - (God is never defeated) - 'To them gave He ithe po\.\ 1 er (or right) to become the children of God, even to them that believe on Hi name: Which were born, not of blood, nor oi the will of the fle h, nor of the will oif man, but of God.' I n't that marvelous! Isn't He Wonderful! " ow I belon 1 g to Jesus, J e us belongs to me Not for the years of time alone, BUT - FOR ETER ITY!" Bless the Lord for the day He (The Light of the World), came to dispel the darkness of sin in and about us, and to give us a right standing before our Heavenly Father.
