Jesus was born to die in our place so that we who were dead would be born again to new life.
For further study: 2 Peter 1:3 - 9
For parents and children: Help your children to understand that Jesus didn't come to earth to give us just eternal life, but abundant life right here, right now where we live every day. Ask them if they know what what abundant means and then define it for them (it means filled to overflowing). Help them to see that Jesus was born so we would have life to the fullest - not just in the future, but right now. Help them to see that the birth of Jesus is God's promise to us that he will fill us with every good thing we need until we are finally home forever with him.
