Overview
All the Way to Bethlehem is an unimaginably great distance. Our Saviour came all the way from the splendour of heaven’s throne to a cold manger at Bethlehem. Before He was laid in that manger He was carried a long way to Bethlehem in the womb of Mary. But all the details of His journey, planned “before the foundation of the world”, were predicted in Scripture, beginning in Genesis 3, continuing through the Pentateuch, through the history books of the Kings, and in the messages of the ancient prophets to find its climax at this “little town of Bethlehem”.
This delightful book describes the lasting importance and the immediate relevance of all this to our faith in these days of doubt and change. Be reassured, and prepare also to be affected personally and emotionally as you read these 13 short chapters. Serious challenges to our devotion to Christ and our witness for Him are here, along with earnest appeals in the gospel to unbelievers.
Linking it with another of his captivating books, David wrote, “The One who went All the Way to Bethlehem to be with us went All the Way to Calvary so that we might be with Him.”
