The Word Became Flesh So Sinners Could Become Sons

"The Word Became Flesh So Sinners Could Become Sons"

John 1:14 – Christmas Sermon

Dr. Daniel Bohannon | Ukiah Bible Church | December 21, 2025

While the world celebrates Christmas with stories of human transformation—like Ebenezer Scrooge becoming a better person—the gospel presents something far greater: God Himself becoming man.

In this Christmas message, Pastor Daniel Bohannon unpacks the profound truth of John 1:14: “And the Word became flesh.” Far beyond moral improvement or seasonal sentiment, the incarnation reveals who Jesus truly is—the eternal, personal, and fully divine Son of God—and why He came.

Explore three key truths:

Jesus – The Eternal Word He is eternal, personal, and divine—the Logos who perfectly reveals God.

Jesus – God in Flesh The eternal Word took on true humanity, tabernacling among us, fully God and fully man, to sympathize with our weakness.

The Purpose of the Incarnation He came not just to reveal God, but to rescue helpless sinners through His death and to restore broken fellowship with the Father—and with one another.

Christmas is not primarily about us becoming better.

It is about God becoming man so that sinners could become sons.

Watch to discover the wonder, assurance, and transforming power of the true heart of Christmas
