The The Creator Visits Earth St. Luke Chapters I and II And the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou art highly favour ed, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women. And when she saw him she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said unto her, Fear not Mary; for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be call ed the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his’ father David and he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. Then said, Mary unto the angel, How shall,this be? And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the High est shall overshadow there, therefore also that hply thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. . . . And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar-Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

And she brought forth her first born son, and wrapped him in swad dling clothes, and laid him in a man ger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same coun try shepherds abiding in the field, keep ing watch over their flocks by night. And 10, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them; and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not; for, behold, I bring you good tid ings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you Is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into hea ven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had been it, they made known abroad saying which was ■told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wonder ed at-those things which were told them by the shepherds. And the shepherds returned, glori fying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them. Across The Fence Row Rest is for the dead.
