The Advent of Christ

1224.815 - 1257.964 R.C. Sproul

Again, if we look at the Christmas story in the New Testament, when the angel announces the birth of Christ to the shepherds in the fields of Bethlehem, the angelic hosts say to the shepherds, unto you this day is born a Savior. Centuries before that, Isaiah is announcing the birth of a child, not simply to a particular woman or to a particular set of parents, but to the nation.
