This Christmas season, the Creation Museum is celebrating its ChristmasTown event by introducing several exciting additions, including the state of Kentucky’s largest conservatory and a unique exhibit showcasing the plants mentioned in the Bible. However, a significant highlight this year is the installation of Scripture signs along the lakeside, guiding visitors towards a live nativity on the newly created outdoor stage.
These signs are adorned with biblical verses beginning in Genesis, illustrating God’s promise that a ruler would come from Judah, and continuing through various prophecies about the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem and the miraculous birth from a virgin. The narrative transitions to the New Testament, showcasing the fulfillment of these prophecies, culminating in Galatians 4:4, which emphasizes the moment when God sent His Son into the world.
The historical context is profound, marking 4,000 years since sin first entered the world and silencing prophecy for 400 years before the coming of Christ—a remarkable journey leading to the birth of the Savior. The anticipation of this defining moment in Christian faith is rooted in Genesis 3:15, where the offspring of the woman is prophesied to defeat evil.
The full spectrum of God’s redemptive plan is captured in the well-known John 3:16, which encapsulates the essence of Christmas—a celebration of God’s love and the gift of eternal life through faith in His Son.
As we gather with loved ones this holiday season, we are reminded of this powerful message. In celebrating, visitors can also enjoy a video of the Creation Choir and Orchestra’s inaugural True Christmas concert at the Ark Encounter, which showcased a full orchestra, a talented choir, and impressive vocal performances of traditional Christmas songs.
This holiday message from Ken Ham and the team at Answers in Genesis serves as a warm reminder of the true meaning of Christmas and encourages us all to reflect on the love and sacrifice that underpin this special time of year.
May this season inspire hope and joy as we cherish time spent with family and friends, celebrating the timeless truths of faith and the shared journey of redemption.
