A Season of Peace Luke 1:26-38 The weeks leading up to Christmas should be a time of joy, peace, and love; but far too often they are times of uncertainty, frustration, worry and stress.

To fully understand who Jesus Christ is, we must understand the dual nature of Christ; both Oneness and Trinitarians agree on this point.
