WHY WAS JESUS OUR LORD BORN IN A MANGER?
(Heavenly Revelation Knowledge)
🔳 It’s true Jesus Christ was born in an animal shelter and was laid in a manger, but this was not the plan Joseph had when he left Nazareth, together with Mary.
Many people think, the reason why Jesus was laid in a manger was because he came from a poor background, BUT this is NOT TRUE.
🔘 When Mary’s pregnancy was 9 months old, something happened in the Roman Empire. Emperor Augustus ordered a census to be done throughout the Roman Empire, and since Galilee and Judea were provinces in Rome, the census needed to be conducted there. During this period, Jospeh and Mary were based in Nazareth which was a town in Galilee.
Joseph who happened to be a descendant of David had no option rather than to move with Mary down to Bethlehem a town in Judea to get themselves registered.
🔘 Unfortunately, as a result of this census many people were forced to travel down to Bethlehem too. Because of the I flock during the period, the Inns were all full. This prevented Joseph to secure a comfortable place for Mary. And as a result of this, the only place they could find was the animal shelter and a manger.
This is a clear explanation, why Jesus Christ our Lord was born in Bethlehem, in an animal shelter and in a manger.
