Come and Behold: Christmas Eve

Luke 2:8–14 CSB

8 In the same region, shepherds were staying out in the fields and keeping watch at night over their flock. 9 Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for look, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people: 11 Today in the city of David a Savior was born for you, who is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be the sign for you: You will find a baby wrapped tightly in cloth and lying in a manger.” 13 Suddenly there was a multitude of the heavenly host with the angel, praising God and saying: 14 Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to people he favors!

I. Unexpected visitors(Angels)

II. To an Unexpected people(lowely Shepherds)

III. Delivering an unexpected message(The Good news)

IV. That all people could be redeemed through this unexpected way.

V. The Savior of the world, Son of God Himself came as a baby, to live in this sin cursed world yet without sin, and through his death pay our price.

Sin was man’s problem, so by a man, it had to be paid for. Christ became man, lived a perfect life, any by dying on the cross took our punishment, paid our fine, and reconciled all those who would repent and believe to himself.....Good news for all people....

Luke 2:14 CSB
