Light Has Dawned: The Light Has Come

The sermon focuses on the theme of “The Light” that Christmas represents, emphasizing that the true essence of Christmas is not the lights we hang but the Light who came—Jesus Christ. It begins with an analogy of tangled Christmas lights to depict how our fascination with light is a deeper yearning for the divine Light. The sermon unfolds how Jesus was prophesied in the Old Testament, fulfilling promises made centuries before His birth, showcasing divine orchestration rather than coincidence. Key prophecies highlighted include His birthplace in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14), and His divine mission (Isaiah 61:1-2). These prophecies underscore Jesus’ dual nature as both human and divine, essential for understanding the Christmas story. The message stresses that Jesus, the eternal Light, entered a world of darkness to bring true life and purpose.
