This sermon is based on the angelic announcement to the Shepherds in Luke 2:8 – 20. The Lord Jesus was born in the time of the great Roman emperor Caesar Augustus. Christ was born in the most humble of circumstances, but His lineage was in the line of David, the great king of Israel, the one to whom the Messianic prophecy was made (2 Samuel 7). Christ’s birth was announced by a host of angels singing, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased.” God’s peace is on those who are justified according to God’s sovereign election and through their faith Christ (Romans 5:1).
He is the Prince of Peace
