  1. Part Three

  2. Matthew 1:18-25 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows. When His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with

  3. Matthew 1:18-25 child by the Holy Spirit. And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not wanting to disgrace her, desired to put her away secretly. But when he had

  4. Matthew 1:18-25 considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for that

  5. Matthew 1:18-25 which has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their

  7. Matthew 1:18-25 with child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which translated means, “God with us.” And Joseph arose from his sleep, and

  8. Matthew 1:18-25 did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took her as his wife, and kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.

  29. Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock…

  30. Step One The opening of the door was the first sign that she was interested in moving forward with the betrothal process.

  31. Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock and if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me.
