Bonar Bethlehem and Its Good News

Bradford Daily Meditations and Prayers




“There was nothing great about Bethlehem.  It was ‘little among the thousands of Judah’ (Mic 5:2); perhaps but a shepherd-village or small market-town; yet there the great purpose of God became a fact; ‘The Word was made flesh.'”

Thus begins this tract by Horatius Bonar about the incarnation.  Here we see the glory of God becoming man and the love that God showed in sending His Son to live and die in humility.  At Bethlehem we can learn about the way to God, the vanity of the earth, a life of holiness, and a  heart of humility.-Chapel Library
