If you were Joseph? Would you have believed the angel sent by God to give you His message? Would you even have believe that you had encountered an angel? Praise God, Joseph believed, and hopefully we do as well. But we need to let that belief affect who we are as Christians. We talked a lot about putting Christ back in Christmas, but let's also take time to see and help others see what Christmas really is. It is the miraculous coming of God into the world to be with up and save us. If Joseph didnt believe what the angel said and if he really encountered an angel, what do you think what happened to the world now? We weren't be able to be saved and the world might be filled with bad people. So we really thank God that Joseph believe so Jesus Christ our Savior was born and save us. We awe Jesus for saving up from bad deeds so we must thank Him and praise Him and serve Him for all He've done for us. Again may the Lord Jesus Christ continue to bless up always.

Absolutely you're right. Joseph's response made a great impact to humanity and Mary as well. If Mary didn't also believe what the angel told her and she didn't respond: "let it be done to me according to your word," then God's plan would not be able to materialize. But, you know, God is omniscient. He had known it from the beginning and already prepared these two souls, Mary and Joseph, as part of His divine plan. They had been predestined to accomplish His will and their response to the angel were the fulfillment of God's divine plan. We, too, must cooperate with God and always say: "Yes Lord" to His call. May God give us His grace to always say "Yes, Lord," Amen.

Really well said Caline010507. Christians had to believe what they hope for. Believing Christ as our Lord and saviour is a great part in one's life and let's continue to have faith in Him that He will provide us the strength to reach out to the world to serve Him.
Believing is christianity.
Nice discussion. Have a nice day.. God bless you... Cheers...
