Christ Born of Mary

18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.G1161G1083G2424G5547G2258G3779G1063G846G3384G3137G3423G2501G4250G2228G846G4905G2147G1722G1064G2192G1537G40G415119Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly.G1161G2501G846G435G5607G1342G2532G3361G2309G3856G846G3856G1014G630G846G630G297720But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.G1161G846G1760G5023G2400G32G2962G5316G846G2596G3677G3004G2501G5207G1138G5399G3361G3880G4675G3137G1135G1063G1080G1722G846G2076G1537G40G415121"And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins."G1161G5088G5207G2532G2564G846G3686G2424G1063G846G4982G846G2992G575G846G26622So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:G1161G3650G5124G1096G2443G4137G3588G4483G5259G2962G1223G4396G300423"Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us."G2400G3933G1722G1064G2192G2532G5088G5207G2532G2564G846G3686G1694G3739G3177G2076G2316G3326G225724Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife,G1161G2501G1326G575G5258G4160G5613G32G2962G4367G846G2532G3880G846G113525and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name JESUS.G2532G1097G846G3756G2193G3739G5088G846G4416G5207G2532G2564G846G3686G2424

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
