Listen "Look at the Stars | Adam Points Us to Jesus by Pastor Greg Mah (Dec 7, 2025)"
Episode Synopsis
We’ve tried all kinds of things to hide and cover up our shortcomings.
Adam and Eve tried sewing fig leaves.
Some of us will sin to cover up sin: We’ll lie about our past. we’ll pretend to be someone we’re not. We’ll put on a facade.
Some of us will try to do good to cover up our wrong: we’ll show up to church, give more money to the offering, serve in a ministry… as if we could “distract” God from our sin.
But at the end of the day, God sees right through it all because our man-made efforts will always be insufficient.
UNLESS. Unless God sufficiently covers us up with the same thing.
A life for a life. A man for mankind.
So God gives us his son to be our covering.
John 3:16 | “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
Romans 10:11 | “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.”
Christ is our covering. And when God looks at you and the clothes he’s put upon you, he says: “You’re beautiful. You’re righteous. You look like one who’s forgiven and free!”
The first Adam failed us. The last Adam frees us.
That’s why rejoice at the birth of our Savior!
