Angels From the Realms of Glory
Ovilla Road Baptist Church
The birth of Christ is a redemptive act so profound it stands alongside creation itself in God’s work in history.

Genesis reminds us that all of humanity ultimately falls into one of two lines—the seed of the woman or the seed of the serpent. This passage calls us to guard our hearts from loving the world more than we love God. But it also...
