Christmas Sermon Series # 4

Christmas Through the Eyes of a Savior

Scripture:

Luke 2:1-20

Notes:

1. Different Time.

2. Different Place.

3. Different Manner.

4. Different Parents.

You see we’re all about impressing people. God is about changing people. 

We love to make as big a splash as possible, but God usually understates His involvement. 

We’re proud; He’s humble.

Our way leads to conflict; His way leads to peace. 

Our way always leads to futility; His way leads to fulfillment. 

Our way leads to death; His way leads to eternal life.

Christmas Through the Eyes of a Woman

Scripture:

Luke 1:26-39

Genesis 18:14

Luke 1:45-55

Luke 2:34

Notes:

Mary’s Reaction

Troubled.

The emphasis is on the Lord being with Mary, not on any merit that she has on her own.

Afraid. 

Uncertain.

Mary’s Reminder

I can’t always control my reaction but my response is my responsibility.

Let’s declare – “nothing is impossible with God.”

Mary’s Response

Offered herself as a servant.

Moved quickly.

Here’s the principle: When we know, we must go!

Sought a mentor. 

Gave glory to God.

Carefully reflected.

Treasured (Luke 2:19a).

Pondered (Luke 2:19b).

Marveled (Luke 2:33). 

Mary’s Reality

God often calls us to do more than we think we can do but He never calls us to do more than He can do.

God uses ordinary people who are available and obedient.

God often shatters our dreams so He can give us new ones.

Always do what God tells you to do even if it doesn’t make sense.

Sermon:

Christmas Through The Eyes Of A Child

Scripture:

Luke 2:25-38

Notes:

Do you get excited about the Christmas season? 

- Even though there are only two children mentioned 

In the Christmas story, there are two servants who Show us how to be Child Like.

Two Servants are: Simeon & Anna

Consolation - When comfort and salvation will come to the Jews through Their Messiah (king).

Redemption of Jerusalem holds the same theme as the Consolation of Israel. 

Simeon and Anna know that Israel’s consolation 

And Jerusalem’s redemption will be for the Whole world.

Christmas through the eyes of a Child means being Faithful while waiting on God And His promises. 

Why should I be faithful while waiting for Jesus?

Reason #1 - We’re waiting with a purpose (Matt 28:18-20). 

Reason #2 - You faithfulness now, means Faithful ones later. (Ps 71:18)

Take Home Questions: 

    • What are some Christmas traditions you celebrate by yourself of with your family? 

    • In your life specifically, what is making it difficult to wait on God and his promises? 

    • Can you name someone who’s faithfulness to God has influenced you? 

    • Who is someone you can influence with your faithfulness to God?
