The voices that sang 0 -om heavei to earth still sing to t stening ears. The angel of the Lord a ill speaks. The babe whom Mary ved is with us. The Son of God is ere. The birth of Christ is historic. The resence of Christ yesterday and to- ay is a fact. Nothing' is more cer- tin than that Christ once lived. The i, ospels attest it. Contemporaneous , acords recognize iL The Christian t rorld around us is a consequential h vidence of His reality and His in- t uence. Men mi&y dispute concern- ig the exact day and month and e ear of His coming into the affairs f men; they may speculate concern- ig the exact place of His birth; they -v iay argue, as they will, over the ianner of His coming; but they can- t, they have not and they will not 0 eny His actuality. Jesus is a fact; u ie most momentous fact of history. a Let us con'sider the significance of We birth of Jesus in the light -of the ges. The birth of Jesus is significant -as e consider it to.be the -falfillment f Iebrew prophecy; as we under- I tand it to 'be the culmination of a ivine self revelatibn; as we study its ifect on humanity. The .birth of Jesus -was the ful'fll- e rent of prophecy. Except we glance d own the long record of the -propheti-e V opes of Israel we cannot imderstand I e Christ. Christ, apaTt fr-om Jew- ;h history., is inexplicable. Jesus is t an isolated, but, rather, a resu-1t- nt fact. The Saviour is the fulfin-5 ent of a nation's .hope, thoughso rgely unaccepted. He ~is the 'con- mmation of the 'edoi-t .f :a i- ~ons saintly hren to 'lead their -peo le near to God. The messages of aah .are the adumbrations of -the hrist. The visions of the prophets re the 'lore-gleams -of the gent-le a~lilean. Israel looke~d -vntb expect- r cy -and with hope 'unquenchab~le r Immanuel-the presence *of Je- ovah 'in the, midst of lis p,eople. aing been led out -of physical and erking bndage they loohe~d forward ith eagerness at a later day to -a sus,~-a :Saviour, who., clothed with i'ine power and enriched wth 'a di- ne scomnmission, shonld lead 'the sin-1 jek -people of God ont of the thrall-C m 'of spiritual slavery into the free-1 m and -the blessedness of an eterna-1 e d sufficient salvation fromr their .ns. Jesu-s was the fuTfillment of -that pe and prophecy. What the fath- s had det'iared, He was. The -chos- n people of God yearned far .an rthly -king, a Messiah anointed of od, set -apairt to a holy leadershipa vinely 'dedicated to the consumma- on of a national existen ce in r~rht-C usness and truth. And in Jesus c 'as this -other hope fulfilled-, and r ith a nobler purpose and with :a r irger scope. Within the spiritu-al indom that He came to institute y the secret of a kingdom which ould rule the world. Far grander ti ian any prophecy and hkope of Is- g tel was tne plan tnat, in Jesus ti rist, God unfolded to His chosec ople. What a pity it is that nine- en centuries ago Israel did not see e beauty of the plan of God, that e did not recognize that broader ad that grander mission of a world- ide ministration and universal do- Lnion to which God, in Jesus, 'called er And how sad it is to-day that~ te -race to wbom the principles of esus are most easily understand~able so opposed to the system of relig- us truth that in our times is termed istinctively Christian.

In d e personality and the message of fc e Christ God gave the fullness of fc e divine self-explicat'ion. Jesus is 5 e ob.iectif:ing of the Godhead be- re the very eyes of humanity. In m Jehovah unfolds the personality divinity. Iri His message is pro- aimed the mind of God for the. wel- a breand sanctifying of the world. si sus is the declaration of the divid- h the humanity, the fatherhood of- d. And in the person of the Christ completed the long endeavor of a ving and patient Father to impress imself upon the minds, the hearts, e lives of His wayward, errant chil- en. Throughout all the ages and the lives of all His people God had xen revealing God to man. Here d there, as Israel heard the voice Jehovah, there a:'ose men of 5?~e- sion, men of insight, men of intense iritual discernment to declare to fl ie duller and less spiritually acute a: ultitude the meaning and ;he i:n-o rt of God's self-revealment. C( roughout all the history of the Losen people of God Divinity strove diverse and incessant fashion to a ipart to the consciousness of man- ad a true understanding of Him- ' lf.And as man, from time to time, s understood the truth that God al s delivered to him by His Spirit o Ld through the prophets, we have B Ld varied interpretations of the aracter and of the personality of d. T'he changeless God has con- atly revealed- the truth concern- g Himself. His plans. His purposes, men.

Jesus is the finality of the divine 1f-revelation. The work of the Pi,it before the days of Christ was reparative, in order to human com- . -ehension of the Christ. And the ci ruggle of the Spirit since the as- rc msion of our Lord has been Zo lead ev en to hear, to heed, to understand e rd to accept the truth which, so g chly, Christ communicates from od. Jesus is the consummation of ie effort of the Spirit of the old dis- m ensation; He is the inspiration of e labors of the Holy Spirit of the Lter covenant between God and men. he photograph of God that Jesus vingly imnarts to men is the ripest roduct 'of divine self-impartation. :e is the culmination of divine self- a velation. But 't is in its ef:ect on humanity c iat the birth of Christ is most sig- th ificant and of widest and most ro- st influence. The birthday of Jesus a the birthday of the larger liberty C man. The coming of Jesus is the u eginning of man's nobler age. The ativity of Jesus is the nativity of P ie transcendant inspiration of the to uman soul. Mary's child is the hope tc all the children of men. T The birth of Christ is effectual for el umanity individually, socially,- eth- d ally, rel'.jusly. . The birth of Christ marks the dawn th -the most glorious epoch in the his- >ry of the human unit. In the face a faith and of a civilization that T >o strongly emphasized the social T spect of human society Jesus de- ared the dignity, the integrity, the icalculable importance of the indi- idual. He placed the common man te n the plane upon which God in His rovidence intended him to move.. tc But while the Lord dignified the t. adividual and proclaimed the eternal ®orth of the human unit apart from H e. mass, He in no wise lowered the w igh position of the social system in t he scheme of God for the ordering ti f this world's affairs. Rather did He c anoble society as a whole.

The birth of Christ marks the dawn th-the most glorious epoch in the his->ry of the human unit. In the facea faith and of a civilization that T>ostrongly emphasized the social T

spect of human society Jesus de-ared the dignity, the integrity, the

icalculable importance of the indi-idual. He placed the common man ten the plane upon which God in Hisrovidence intended him to move.. tcBut while the Lord dignified the t.adividual and proclaimed the eternal®orth of the human unit apart from H
