Listen from:
“She shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins” (Matt. 1:2121And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21)).
“All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” “When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law,” in fulfillment of the first Messianic promise, spoken by the Lord God to the serpent, Satan’s tool, in the Garden of Eden, that “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise His heel.” “God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” “No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him.” He said that “I and My Father are one,” and “he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father.” He is “our Lord Jesus Christ  ...  the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath immortality  ...  to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.”
The holy Son of God came down
To dwell on earth among men;
Refused, despised and rejected,
He paid the price for our sins.
