Simeon

Christmas time and anticipation
Just as simeon was ready for Jesus’s first coming We too ought to be ready for his second coming
This text presents a checklist of how Simeon was ready
Are you saved? () - “righteous” / “just”
Are you surrendered? () - “devout”
Are you spiritual? () - “Holy Spirit was upon him”
Are you sensitive? () - “it had been revealed to him by the spirit”
Are you satisfied? () - “Now Lord, You are releasing Your bond-servant to depart in peace”
no person is really ready to live until they are ready to die.
New American Standard Bible: 1995 Update (La Habra, CA: The Lockman Foundation, 1995), .”
The prophesy
Who is Jesus?
He is the one who brings deliverance (30-31)
He is the one who dispels darkness (32-33)
He is the one who determines destiny (34)
John 3:36
He is the one who provokes derision (34) “and for a sign to be opposed—”
When Christ was here on earth some said:
“you’re mad!”
Others said “he has a demon”
Others said “he’s a drunkard and a glutton”
Others said “he was born out of fornication” when the Pharisees said “we were not born out of fornication for we know who our father is”
He is a sign that will be spoken against and friend i have news for you today if you want to follow him you will experience trials and persecution and you will be pushed back against also.
2 Timothy 12 says “everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted”
How to preach a gospel that will be accepted and not rejected:
just preach a Jesus that is
“Not virgin born”
“not sinless”
“no deity”
“no demand for the new birth”
“no standard of right and wrong”
“no judgement”
“No discipleship”
“no only way to heaven”
At the end of the day we are all unamerican if we do not put our arms around one another and say your faith is just as good as mine Folks that is a lie straight from hell because

there is salvation in ano one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.

He is the one who reveals decisions (35)
