This morning, as the Gospel writers continue telling us the story that leans to Christmas, We first have the birth of John the Baptist.
We are starting to see that these stories of John the Baptist and Jesus the Messiah are intertwined. There is a family connection, and family was so important in biblical time, even as much as the family of Jesus is so important today.
But the Family of God doesn’t start with the people who came after Christ and put their lives in His hands, but rather is started much earlier before his birth. When John the Baptist was born a few months before Jesus was born, the last member of the “Before Christ” family had finally come, and now it was time for the Messiah.
Let’s open our Bibles this morning to Luke chapter 1, verse 57 before we turn to Matthew in a message I’ve titled: The Not So Royal Family of Jesus.
Point number 1 in your notes this morning:
The purpose of the birth of John the Baptist was to point people Jesus.
Point number 2 in your notes this morning:
The promise of a Messiah through the family of Abraham is an important part of the Christmas story.
Point number 3 in your notes this morning:
Jesus, who is born a King, is part of a not so royal family.
Point number 4 in your notes this morning:
And this is a big point
Every single person in the family of Jesus needs a Savior.
