Is Christianity a New Religion? | Christ For You

Text: Luke 2:36–38 | Midweek Advent 3

Did Christians make Christmas up? Is it only a New Testament idea? Did the Church turn Jesus into a legend and force the Old Testament to fit Him? Is Christianity a new religion? Modern skepticism says the Incarnation is a later invention. Scripture says something very different.

In this sermon, you learn of Anna. Forgotten by history, overlooked in the Nativity, yet standing right in the center of God’s plan. Anna waited for redemption her entire life—not because she imagined it, but because Scripture promised it. She didn’t twist the Bible to fit Jesus. She recognized Jesus because the Bible had prepared her for Him.

Anna’s witness dismantles the myth that Christmas was constructed by Christians. Before creeds, councils, or theologians ever existed, she saw God in the flesh and told everyone who would listen. Christmas wasn’t invented. It was fulfilled.

Learn how the Incarnation anchors your faith in reality, how fulfilled prophecy gives you confidence in every promise of God, and how the Christ Anna met is the same Christ who meets you now, in flesh and blood, for your salvation.
