All three members of the Trinity were present in the manger in Bethlehem, that first Christmas. As Mary held baby Jesus' little frame in her arms, all the fullness of the Godhead bodily indwelt Him (Colossians 2:9-10) and God was launching in Christ, a reconciliation of human individuals to Himself (II Corinthians 5:19).
There is a timelessness about the Christmas story... God stepped out of eternity and entered time, for the sole purpose of delivering man and womankind from our lost state. All three members of the Trinity were present in the manger in Bethlehem, that first Christmas. As Mary held baby Jesus' little frame in her arms, all the fullness of the Godhead bodily indwelt Him (Colossians 2:9-10) and God was launching in Christ, a reconciliation of human individuals to Himself (II Corinthians 5:19).

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." John 3:16-17 The verse above separates all of humanity into two categories: those who believe and reach out to receive the proffered gift and those who do not and who hope to secure their eternity another way!
