Jesus Is Kinsman-Redeemer
The Old Testament foreshadows a divine deliverer who would rescue humankind from bondage and captivity. One symbol of this coming redemption was the role of the kinsman-redeemer, a close family member who could choose to rescue a relative by paying his debts.
As the fulfillment of this sign, Jesus became our Kinsman-Redeemer. He became flesh and blood so that He might share in our humanity, becoming the Son of Man as well as the Son of God. He walked with us, identifying with us so that He could pay our debts and show us the way back to our Creator. No one else could have delivered us from our sins and freed us from bondage.
Activity: Bake some goodies and treat your neighbors or co-workers to something sweet.

About this Plan
On a quiet night 2,000 years ago, angels brought news of the Savior’s birth to shepherds tending their flocks—and after hearing the news, those same shepherds left everything to seek a baby in Bethlehem. All these years later, the invitation has not changed. Join Dr. Charles Stanley as he helps you draw near to the Savior, encouraging you to make time to rest in the Father’s love this season.
