The birth of Jesus is the time God began fulfilling the greatest promise ever, and the greatest promise ever is the solution to the greatest problem ever. Scripture explains for us both the problem and the solution. The problem is that we are separated from God, and this means that we are as a result separated from the life he provides. We cannot solve this problem on our own. Jesus came as God with us, and he came to be the solution to this problem himself. This answer is described as salvation, and salvation is a relationship with God through Jesus. This is the promise that is at the heart of all of Scripture.
