Matthew 1:18-25 ~ The Purpose for His Birth (2014)

Excerpt:

I draw your attention back to verse 21, the purpose for the birth of Christ. You will call His name Jesus; for He Himself will save His people from their sins. Emphasis on the word from. We know the Scriptures teach us that Jesus came to be our Savior and to die on the cross so that we might be forgiven of our sins. But this text says purposely that He came to save us from our sins. It emphasizes deliverance. It emphasizes separation from the source of sin itself.
