Christmas is All About “I Believe”

November 7, 2021

November 7, 2021 • Dr. Randall T. Hahn

Christmas is all about believing. In the weeks in front of us, we will see Christmas movies, commercials, and cards that call us to just believe. Believe in Santa. Believe in humanity. Believe in the Christmas spirit. And belief is just a warm feeling that doesn’t need things like truth and reality. Now that belief, that warm feeling doesn’t actually accomplish anything, help us solve real problems, but you will feel good, for a moment, at Christmas, I think. I am not sure where this idea of believing came from, but it did not come from the Bible or Christianity. And we see that so clearly in the opening lines of the Christmas story in Luke.

The Faith of a Child

Today we finish our study of the Christmas story as the Holy Spirit gave it to Luke. It is a story about an 8-day old Jesus, and two other children, Simeon and Anna. Luke 2:21-39.

A Sovereign, for You

The headlines for weeks in the Roman Times, Jerusalem Today, and every other paper would have been, Augustus Mandates Census. And that caused a great amount of time, money, and headache. We have been studying the Christmas story for 4 weeks, and now today we come to the heart of the story. Look with me at Luke 2:1-20.

What Happened to the Awe?

What gives you a sense of awe? You might be thinking, the mountains and the moon sure, but the castles and the football game. Yep, God did that. Look with me today at Luke 1:57-80. This is the fourth of our six Christmas messages from the Gospel of Luke. I have learned so much, been challenged so much in this, and I pray the same had been true for you.
