In Luke 2:1–20, the Shepherds leave their flocks and run to Bethlehem because they believed something extraordinary: God had come to save His people.In this Christmas sermon from Westwood Church in Evansville, IN, Christian Barrett explores:1. What the shepherds believed from the Old Testament2. Why the angels worshipped3. Why the Savior had to come in the flesh4. Why the Savior had to be God5. What it means that Jesus is “God with us”The angel’s announcement—“For unto you is born this day…a Savior, who is Christ the Lord”—was not new information, but the fulfillment of everything God had promised in the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms. From Genesis 3:15 to Isaiah 9:6–7 and Micah 5:2, Scripture points to a Savior who would be both truly man and truly God.This message reminds us that Christmas is not about sentimentality or tradition, but about the gospel:Jesus Christ came in the flesh, lived the life we could not live, died the death we deserved, and rose again to conquer sin and death.If you are not a Christian, this message is an invitation to receive Christ by faith—the greatest gift of all. If you are a Christian, it is a call to stop striving and to rest in Jesus, pondering Him daily rather than only at Christmas.Main Passage: Luke 2:1–20Supporting Scriptures: Genesis 3:15; Hebrews 2:14–18; Isaiah 9:6–7; Micah 5:2Subscribe for biblical teaching centered on ChristShare to help others hear the true message of Christmas#ChristmasSermon #Luke2 #GodWithUs #Incarnation #JesusChrist #Gospel #Shepherds #ChristianTeaching #ChristmasTruth
