The wicked things to God
was laid in a manger.
Then, why a manger symbolizes the world? Do you think the
manger is clean, or do you think it is dirty? Of course, you
think it is dirty. A manger is in the place where animals live,
which is animal pen. Therein animals eat, excrete and sleep.
Animals instinctively eat and excrete, but do not have a sense
of the uncleanness of the excrement. Since it is the place
where animals eat, excrete, and sleep, how dirty and unclean
there? No matter how unclean, such animals do not have an
ability to clean cleanly for themselves. Eventually animals
are bound to die because infectious diseases and germs are
infiltrated by their own excretion unless the owner cleans the
pen and animals every day. So, the pen of an animal is the
fallen human world by sin, and the human beings, who are
to be dead in all kinds of sins, are a symbol of the inevitable
existence which they cannot solve their sins for themselves
like that animal, and it means that Jesus came in the midst
of that sin.
If human beings know their status and believe that
Jesus is the Lord and the Savior to purify their sins clearly,
they would know that Jesus came to give Himself as a whole
through the sign of the Savior that He came in a manger of
animal like that. Now, did you get how to understand this
Word? You must connect it to yourself, not only the Word
