But to appreciate the main point of the story—that the eternal Son of God assumed our flesh-and-blood human nature—we need to learn from the rest of the Bible why Christ came to earth. Why did Christ come? In this book, thirty-one thoughtful meditations answer this vital question, and the answers encourage us to celebrate Christ’s birth more deeply, see more clearly how it is connected with the rest of His ministry, and recognize its importance for our lives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEndorsement \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Can anything new be said about Christ’s incarnation?  Actually, a lot of old things that we may have forgotten!  Like a multifaceted diamond, the question ‘Why did the eternal Son become man?’ admits a variety of answers.  Probing some of those with wisdom bathed in the Scriptures is what makes this devotional guide so rich.  It will be part of our family’s Advent devotions and, I hope, a source of blessing for many others.”\u003cbr\u003e—Michael Horton, professor of theology at Westminster Seminary California and cohost of the \u003cem\u003eWhite Horse Inn\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Do the Will of the Father\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Save Sinners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bring Light to a Dark World\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Be Made Like His People\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bear Witness to the Truth\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Destroy the Works of the Devil\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Give Eternal Life\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Receive Worship\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bring Great Joy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Demonstrate True Humility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Preach the Gospel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bring Judgment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Give His Life a Ransom for Many\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Fulfill the Law and Prophets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Reveal God's Love for Sinners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Call Sinners to Repentance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Die\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Seek and Save the Lost\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Serve\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bring Peace\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bring a Sword\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Bind Up Broken Hearts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Give Us the Spirit of Adoption\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Make Us Partakers of the Divine Nature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Reign as King\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Restore Human Nature to Holiness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Be a Faithful and Merciful High Priest\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Be the Second and Greater Adam\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Satisfy Our Deepest Thirst\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Be Loved by God's Children\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo Reveal God's Glory\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNotes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reformation Heritage Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53009930223927,"sku":"ngp1789814955155","price":7.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/8910\/4695\/files\/why-christ-came_1.jpg?v=1789814959","url":"https:\/\/effortlesschicclad.shop\/products\/why-christ-came","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
