This Sunday the sermon is from Luke 1:26-33 – “Christmas and the Catechism”. “Christ, the Son of God, became man, by taking to himself a true body, and a reasonable soul …” – Westminster Shorter Catechism #22

Many Christian denominations subscribe to certain creeds, confessions and catechisms. These tools aid Christians as they seek to understand the truths of Scripture. Presbyterians, for instance, subscribe to the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms. Question #22 of the Shorter Catechism is particularly helpful during the Christmas season. It asks the question, “How did Christ, being the Son of God, become man?” Then, it gives this answer, “Christ, the Son of God, became man, by taking to himself a true body, and a reasonable soul, being conceived by the power of the Holy Ghost, in the womb of the virgin Mary, and born of her, yet without sin.” Charles Wesley put this truth to song, “Veiled in flesh the God-head see; hail the incarnate Deity, pleased as man with men to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel.” Let us worship the Christ of Scripture.
