Matthew 1:19-21,24
Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her os of the Holy Ghost.
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife...

Luke 1:26 -33
AND IN THE SIXTH month the angel Gabriel was sent from GOd unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David, and the Virgin's name was Mary.
And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women...
And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be..
And the angel said unto her, Fear not Mary: for thou hast found favor with God.
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
Luke 2: 34-35, 38
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the son of GOD.
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

Story of Christmas was written according to the Gospels of Matthew and Luke from the King James Bible
Story of Christmas was written according to the Gospels of Matthew and Luke from the King James Bible
INTRODUCTION:
The gospels are four books that tell the life of Jesus Christ and his teachings. They are found in the New Testament of the Bible. The Gospel of Saint Matthew comes first, followed by the Gospels of Saints Mark, Luke and John.
Saint Luke tells the story of the angel Gabriel's visit to Mary with the news that she would give birth to Jesus. Luke also tells about the Journey of Bethlehem, the birth of Jesus in a stable, and visit by the Shepherds.
Most scholars believe that Luke was Physician. Some say he was also a painter. He traveled around the ancient world with Sain Paul, spreading the teaching of the christ. Many think Luke wrote his Gospel while living in Greece or Asia Minor seventy to eighty years after christ's death and resurrection. He is considered to be the author of another book in the New Testament, the acts of the Apostles. Of the four Gospel writers, he provides the most complete account of the circumstance of christ's Birth.
Matthew was one of Jesus disciples. It is likely he wrote his Gospel fifty to seventy-five years after christ's death and resurrection. Matthew believed that the birth of Jesus christ fulfilled a prophecy in the old Testament: "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is "God with us" ( Matthew 1:23). Matthew's Gospel provides the story of the three wise men. Like Luke, Matthew traveled to many places in the ancient world and preached about Jesus Christ....
