Luke 2:11 says, For unto you is born this day a Savior.

This passage serves as one of the most pivotal moments for all mankind.  It is one of the most theologically rich passages in all of Scripture.  Let us never lose sight of this beautiful promise, especially as we celebrate the fourth Sunday of Advent tomorrow.

One a day – in real history.

In a city – in a real world.

The Savior – came to take away all our guilt.

The Christ – came to fulfill all our hopes.

The Lord – came to defeat all our enemies, to save us from sin and our enemies.

This promise was followed up with a celebration in heaven that spilled over to earth:

And suddenly there was with an angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased!  Luke 2:13-14

This is a celebration that should continue on in our lives every day, not just during Advent. Because of God’s unconditional love for us, He gave us this awesome gift – The gift of eternal life.  I can’t think of any gift I would rather have.  Can you?  Thanks be to God.
