The statement regarding the person of the Messiah was startling. 2. The statement regarding the work of the Messiah was startling.

The Birth of Jesus
Luke 2 is a familiar passage to most people. We hear it every Christmas. Yet there are some unfamiliar things that we can take out of this passage. Luke placed the birth of Jesus in a historical setting. The birth of Jesus isn't just a nice story, but it was a real event that took place. Also, Jesus was born into the most humble of circumstances. The Savior, Messiah, and Lord was placed in a trough where the animals ate. If the Son of God is that humble, we need to be that humble, too.

Are You Chosen to Follow Jesus?
What was the real issue in this story? It was about being chosen by God. The Hebrews were chosen from all the nations of the world to be God's special people. Similarly, the NT teaches us that all followers of Jesus Christ, both Jews and Gentiles, are chosen by God to be His special people in these last days of time. Instead of choosing only one ethnic group to save, God chooses people from all ethnic groups. God chooses Jews and Gentiles from all over the world to be His chosen people. These people are chosen to follow the Messiah. Again, they are not chosen because they are intrinsically better than anybody else. In fact, they are sinners like everybody else. Instead, they are chosen on the same basis that God chose Abraham; they are chosen because of their trusting, obedient faith in God. They believe God's word and they accept God's Messiah--God's own Son, Jesus--as their personal Savior and Lord. I will briefly explain three implications of being one of God's chosen people.
