He was the son of David, yet He was the Lord of David.  He was before David, yet was born of David’s line.  He was the son of Mary, yet He was the Lord of Mary.  He was before Mary, yet He was born of her by the Holy Spirit.  He was before Adam, was born of Adam and is the Second Adam.  Jesus said, “Before Abraham was, I AM!”  He was before you!  Have you been born of His line?  Do you live your life under His Lordship?
