TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY
"Then the angel said to them [the shepherds], “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord" (Luke 2:10-11 NKJV).
The birth of Jesus was the most astonishing thing that ever happened to this earth. Nothing like it had ever happened before. Jesus was born of a virgin, grew up in a humble peasant home, traveled about as an itinerant preacher, died in ignominy and shame, rose from the grave, ascended to heaven and now is at the right hand of the Father. He was truly "God with us, the Word made flesh . . .the Christ, the Son of the Living God" (Matthew 1:23; 16:16; John 1:14). The coming of Jesus to this earth as our Savior is indeed tidings of great joy for everyone on this earth. Read all about it in the New Testament and find true fulfillment through fellowship with Jesus Christ our Lord. As you receive Jesus you will begin to experience eternal life, the life of the age to come. You will indeed become a new creation in Him (see 2 Corinthians 5:17).
