Scripture: Luke 2:21-40
SHOW NOTES:
The central message of Christmas, found in Luke 2:11, is “Christ the Savior is born.” Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem, the promised Messiah, brings hope and peace to the world. This phrase symbolizes Jesus’ fulfillment of prophecy, His divine identity as God’s Son, and His mission as Redeemer. This is God’s story—His master plan.
Scene 1: Zechariah and Elizabeth (Luke 1:13-25)
Scene 2: The angel, Gabriel, visits Mary in Nazareth (Luke 1:26-38)
Scene 3: Joseph’s Dream (Matthew 1:18-25)
Scene 4: Mary Visits Elizabeth (Luke 1:39-45)
Scene 5: Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem is witnessed by angels and shepherds (Luke 2:8-20)
In Scene 6, Joseph and Mary take Jesus to the temple for purification as required by the law of Moses. Two trustworthy witnesses, Simeon and Anna, who had faithfully walked with God for many years and waited for this child—God’s gift—were present. Anna shares the good news of Jesus, and Simeon proclaims, “My eyes have seen Your salvation.”
“Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word; for my eyes have seen Your salvation that You have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to Your people Israel.”
- Luke 2:29-32
