This Good Friday sermon is based on the Christmas text of Luke 2:10-12, which says, "Fear not, for behold I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you. You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger." In these words, we already see Jesus' purpose not only for His birth, but also for His death.
