As I begin the message this morning, I want to ask you a questionWhat is your
response to the truth of the Christmas Message? In our text we will see how the
Shepherds, the multitude, and Mary the mother of Jesus responded to the truth of the
Christmas message.
Notice with me this morning by way of introduction, the response of the Shepherds
1. They Beheld the Truthvs. 8-14
2. They Believed the Truthvs. 15-16
3. They Broadcast the Truthv. 17
The message was that which was revealed to them from God by His angelic messenger.
God was the source of this message.
B. The Subject of this Message
concerning this Child
The message was about Christ and Him alone. They preached Jesus, not Mary or Joseph.
C. The Scope of the Message
they made known abroad
The phrase make known abroad means to publish abroad, to make known thoroughly.
They made know the message to everyone they could. It was probably limited to the Bethlehem
area, but they did their best to make it known in the Bethlehem area.
