Luke 2:1-21

Luke 2:1-21 (Sermon sheet1) In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. 4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields near by, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.’ 13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 ‘Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.’ 15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.’ 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. 21 On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived. (Circle: ‘manger’, ‘Lord’ & ‘amazed’)

Luke 2:1-21 Be amazed, Be in wonder, Be astonished, Marvel, Be surprised V19 Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise Think of the heat of the sun with nuclear reactions within it creating a blinding brilliance even millions of miles away. Yet there's an intensity and substance to God's glory far beyond that of our sun...He remains a consuming fire. (Tim Chester)

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise Glory to God in the highest heaven

You will find the baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise Veiled in flesh the Godhead see. Hail, the incarnate Deity! Please as man with man to dwell, Jesus our Immanuel.

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise 3. God's word is more certain than we realise

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise 3. God's word is more certain than we realise since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account for you...so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught. (Luke 1:3-4)

Luke 2: God's word is more certain than we realise

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise 3. God's word is more certain than we realise The Biblical gospels consistently get place names right, name patterns right, botany right, shape of houses right, shape of the temple right, coinage right, social stratification right, religious setting right. There are so many opportunities for them to get it wrong if they are making it up, yet they do not (Peter Williams).

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise 3. God's word is more certain than we realise

Luke 2: God is more glorious than we realise 2. God is more gracious than we realise 3. God's word is more certain than we realise 4. God gives greater joy than we realise ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.

Luke 2: God gives greater joy than we realise This is the world we live in. But Christmas morning reminds us that there is a promise that one day there will be a world of no mourning or crying or pain. Those who celebrate Christmas will do so with a profound sense that this day represents a moment of hope that…God is real, and that he cares enough to get intimately involved in the human drama.
