Tell Me the Old, Old Story: The Christmas Prophecies

Isa. 9:6-7

Introduction: There is just something about the power of a good story. Today, I want to talk to you about a story— so beautiful, so powerful, and so life-changing that it’s been told for thousands of years. It’s not just any story; it’s “the story.” Of course I’m talking about “The Christmas Story,” the story of Jesus Christ, His coming, His birth, and His mission. This is “the story” of God stepping into history to change everything! And here’s the twist: this story didn’t begin in Bethlehem (as many believe). No, this story was told long before the angels proclaimed it, or the shepherds or wisemen came. In fact, it may surprise you to know, this is a story that is woven through the pages of the Old Testament, as prophets, priests, and kings all pointed to the same hope: the coming of Jesus Christ. So today, I want to tell you “The old, old story.”
