Micah 5:2 in the Old Testament foretells Christ's birth, and the fact that Bethlehem would play a significant and eternal role in the Christian story. Two North Carolina faith leaders weigh in.
The fact that Jesus' birth was foretold by hundreds of years – and that it was foretold that Jesus would be of ‘everlasting origins,’ should give us "great comfort and assurance," said North Carolina faith leader Alex McFarland.
"This gives us great comfort and reassurance," added McFarland, who is also host of"Exploring the Word" on American Family Radio. Another North Carolina faith leader said that not only was Christ’s birth a gift to mankind, but that hundreds of years prior to the blessed event, God was speaking though the prophets about it.Micah 5:2 not only"foretells of the Messiah’s birth" but the writer"also reminds us that he came forth from"ancient days," Judge Phil Ginn, president of the Southern Evangelical Seminary in Charlotte, told Fox News Digital via email.
"If you could travel as far back into history as you can imagine, the very son of God will come walking out of the mist to greet you," said North Carolina faith leader Judge Phil Ginn."But John tells us this in his first chapter in verses 1-4: ‘In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
