MARY DELIVERS HER FIRSTBORN

Luke 2:5-7

MARY DELIVERS HER FIRSTBORN

…and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger. Luke 2:7, NIV

The fact that Mary delivered her firstborn child was not an issue, but the fact that it happened in an unusual place, a manger was and is still an issue. The cause of the unusual birthplace for the King of kings and Lord of lords was, “because there was no room for them in the inn.” One may be tempted to wonder, that even if the personality of the baby born was discountenanced,

So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, ‘After I am worn out and my master is old, will I now have this pleasure?’ Genesis 18:12, NIV
