HISTORY’S GREATEST ANNOUNCEMENT 12-23-2018
“Fear not: for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ, the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger. Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men”.
There have been announcements that heralded the end of a war, or the beginning of a new era. There have been announcements that came to larger or more prestigious crowds. There have been other announcements that changed the course of history. But there has never been another announcement that defined the course of history. The entrance of Jesus Christ into the world is the event around which history revolves. No other event compares. No other announcement compares. Merry Christmas!
