The Christmas story (without the sentimentality) speaks into our human condition. Our frustrations, fear, joy and anxieties. Sadly it also speaks into the remorseless violence that we have witnessed over thousands of years and continues today. Into our human frailty God breaks-in, as God is being God, the One who brings love, peace, joy and hope in the form of a baby.
John’s questioning whether Jesus is the one or should he wait for another, reflects the raw honesty of the Gospels. It allows us the freedom to question, explore and discover who this Jesus is in our own lives and the life of the Christian community. As Jesus answers John, he also answers us, ‘see and hear for yourselves’.
