Message Notes:
25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. 27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law, 28 he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said, 29 “Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word; 30 for my eyes have seen your salvation 31 that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, 32 a light for r evelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.” 33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him. 34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed 35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.” – Luke 2v25-35 (ESV)
For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy – Revelation 19v10 (ESV)
4 aged, OT saints
Christmas means not just hope for the world, despite all its unending problems, but hope for you and me, despite all our unending failings. – Tim Keller
Simeon says…
Simeon’s Testimony…
1. He waited
And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. – Luke 2v26 (ESV)
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'Til he appears and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone forces his way into it. – Luke 16:16 (ESV)
2. He worshiped
27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law, 28 he took him up in his arms and blessed God – Luke 2v27-28 (ESV)
Christmas is not about a holiday to celebrate
It’s about a King who deserves worship
