Nehemiah 8:1-18; Zechariah 4:1-14; Revelation 13:1-18

Hendrick Van Loon, in “The Story of Mankind”, wrote, “Seven hundred and fifty-three years after the founding of Rome. Caesar Augustus was busily engaged in ruling the world. Mary, the wife of a carpenter, was tending her little Boy, born in a stable. Before long, palace and stable were to meet in open combat, and the One born in the stable was to emerge victorious.” —Arnot P. McIntee
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes.
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise. —Walter Chalmers Smith
