Luke 3:21-38 NIV
Who's your father? One's genealogy is important to many people. There are many in this world who don't have a clue through no fault of there own. I have spent hours researching my own genealogy on the internet. Where we come from is important, but just as important, if not more important, is where we are going and who loves us.
Today we read about the genealogy of Jesus who is the Son of Man and the Son of God. At his baptism, by John, heaven was opened, the Holy Spirit descended upon him and a voice from heaven declared, "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased." (vs. 21-22) God is the Father of Jesus. Then we read of his earthly genealogy all the way back to Adam.
We all have earthly genealogies; even if we don't know who is in our ancestral tree. But, for those who don't know their family (and even if you do) you should know that our Father in heaven loves you. He loves you enough to send His only begotten Son to live and die and live for you.
