We don't know a lot about Jesus' childhood, but in our text today we see Him at the Temple talking to the Priests, Sages, and teachers when He was 12 years old. And, we have the first recorded words of Jesus in the New Testament!

Mark and John have nothing to say about the events that happened after the Birth of Jesus. But between Luke and Matthew’s narratives, we get exactly what took place.

Jesus was most likely born around September 25, 8 B.C. On or about Rosh Hashanah - the Feast of Trumpets.

Going deep in a study on the Last Supper, The Lord's Table, Communion, Passover, and the Bread of Life!

What year was Jesus born? Believe it or not, there is a huge debate on this and some even question the veracity of scripture because of it. Pastor Brett digs deep and discovers the best date for our Lord's birth!

In our study today, we will find that Jesus said there is no one greater, of all the men who had been born to this point, than John the Baptist. And then He says, 'the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he'. How are we greater than John the Baptist?

Only three people (excluding Jesus) were 'filled with the Holy Spirit' (in the New Testament) prior to the resurrection of Jesus. But that was a temporary filling for a specific purpose. After Pentecost, we become the temple of the Holy Spirit and we are constantly filled with the Spirit all the time!

The most amazing event in the history of the universe! God the Son, emptied Himself of His divine attributes and became a developing embryo in Mary's womb! The creator became part of His creation! It's called the 'Kenosis'. What did Jesus empty Himself of? How did God the Son become a man? Pastor Brett digs deep and brings out what the Bible has to say on the matter of the incarnation and kenosis. CORRECTION: Thank you Alan Bennett for pointing this out! Pastor Brett was exhausted when he put this sermon together and even when he preached it. Jesus did not get His divine attributes back at the transfiguration. He will not get them back until after the resurrection.
