Luke 23:38
And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Christ did come. He came into this world as a little child. Meek and lowly. He performed many miracles. He was about His Father's business. He taught those around Him how to serve, to be kind to one another, the importance of keeping His commandments, He laid out the organization of His church, and He taught His gospel.
This chapter is about the crucifixion of the Lord. We all know the story of how it happened. But I really love that while He was being mocked and being crucified for being what He said He was, there still on the cross were the words King of the Jews. That is what He was and still is. He is the King and the Savior of the world.

Luke 7
Luke 7:50
And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
This woman, who was a sinner, had a box of very expensive ointment. She stood at His feet, anointing His feet with the ointment. Weeping, she washed His feet with her tears and kissed His feet. The Pharisees seeing this accused the Savior of not knowing that she was a sinner and said that she shouldn't touch Him. The Savior taught a lesson using a parable. He doesn't love those with more sins less than others. He loves us no matter what. No matter what I do I can always return to Him. He is always there with His arms outstretched for me.

Luke 5
Luke 5:20
And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
That is the greatest thing that the Savior has done for me and for all of us. He has the ability to take away all of our sins. With that we can again stand in His presence and hopefully live with Him again.

Luke 2
Luke 2:11
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
Christ was born to Mary. The star of Bethlehem witnessed the birth of the Savior. He came not into this world wearing a velvet robe or having a golden throne. But a manger only, that didn't house any worldly things, that made that child a King.
