Culture’s departure from God’s design illustrates what has been true from the beginning: by nature, mankind is in rebellion against God. The institution of marriage is no exception.

Are you ready for Christmas? It’s possible to believe many things about Jesus without ever trusting Him. Alistair Begg urges us to consider that because we are sinners, our greatest need is salvation—to be rescued from our rejection of Jesus for a relationship with Him by His own sacrifice on the cross. God’s gift of salvation is not related to our performance. It is ours when we receive the Savior whose coming we celebrate during the Christmas season.

Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See his banner go!
