The Savior
To see what Christmas is all about, we’re considering the 3 significant titles given by GOD through an angel to shepherds which describe the One who was born on that first Christmas day. Each of these names convey certain wondrous yet distinct truths about Jesus regarding His nature, His authority, & His mission. Now the birth of a child is nothing unusual, even one born into abject poverty is not uncommon; but One whose birth has been foretold many hundreds of years before the event, & whose birth was attended by heavenly beings which sang His praises & declared Him to be a Savior, the Christ of the OT Scripture, & the Lord of glory, is both infinitely unique & significant. Friends, to truly see what GOD wants us to see is wrapped up in those 3 designations: Savior, Christ, & Lord.
