Prophecy of Christ

December 26, 2019December 26, 2019 Joanne Guarnieri Hagemeyer

He was born in the hamlet of Bethlehem, an inconsequential dot on the map, but it was the birthplace of Kings, the very root and stump of Jesse, and from it now sprang this young shoot, the ruler who would sit on the throne of Judah forever. Continue reading Prophecy of Christ
