Natal
O Natal celebra o maior milagre da história: Deus se fez homem. O menino Jesus, nascido em Belém, é Emanuel — Deus conosco — a esperança do mundo inteiro.
O nascimento do Salvador
O anjo anunciou: hoje vos nasceu um Salvador, que é Cristo, o Senhor! A virgem concebeu pelo Espírito Santo e deu à luz o Filho de Deus.
10 And the angel said to them, Don't be afraid; for look, I bring you{} good news of great joy which will be to all the people:
11 for there is born to you{} this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David;5 to enroll himself with Mary, his wife, being pregnant.
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered.7 And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
A profecia cumprida
Isaías profetizou: a virgem conceberá e dará à luz um filho que se chamará Emanuel. Em Jesus, essa promessa se cumpriu perfeitamente.
14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you{} a sign: look, the young woman will be pregnant, and give birth to a son, and will call his name Immanuel.
Glória a Deus nas alturas
Os pastores glorificaram a Deus e os anjos cantaram: 'Glória a Deus nas alturas e paz na terra entre os homens a quem Ele quer bem!'
14 Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men in whom he is well pleased.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, even as it was spoken to them.
