In Douglas Adams's science fiction series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy after 7.5 million years the hypercomputer Deep Thought finally provides The Ultimate Question Of Life, the Universe and Everything. The answer: "forty-two." But Deep Thought did not know the question.
God's answer to Life arrived 2,000 years ago in a small town in southern Palestine. The answer was a baby named "Jesus." Was this answer just as baffling as "forty-two"?
God's answer was not just any baby, but as the angel announced to Joseph, this baby was "Immanuel" or "God with us."
But those who only focus on the baby miss the point that God was making. Many allow the package God delivered to overshadow what the package contained. God gave us the story of Jesus' birth to explain the supernatural origins of Jesus, not to simply adore a baby.
Jesus entered this world as a baby, but not to stay a baby. The baby grew up and became a full grown man, and the man, like the baby was far more. And that is the real point of the story.
This Sunday is our last in a series of messages on "Fact & Fiction on Jesus' Birth".
Perhaps the greatest fiction that many perpetuate is that Jesus is still a baby. The fact is He is "A Baby No More ."
