Series: Immanuel – God with Us
Part 4: Christ the Savior
Sermon by Paul Lawler
Scripture: Luke 2:8-14
“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:11 (ESV)
Christ: He is the fulfillment of all that the Old Testament spoke. There are more than 300 specific O.T. prophecies spoken of Jesus. Lord: He is pre-existent and is sovereign over all things. Savior: He saves us from something. But what are we saved from?
"(We have created) a god without wrath [who] brought men without sin into a kingdom without judgment through the ministrations of a Christ without a cross" H. Richard Niebuhr
