【谦卑自己成为救赎】

主讲: 谭天恩弟兄

25/010/2023

引言: 毛遂自荐

一、耶稣降生带下盼望（2:1-21）

1.耶稣是按着预言来到世界（V1-7）

约瑟和马利亚因报名上册，特意从拿撒勒南下到伯利恒，结果耶稣在伯利恒城诞生，其实先知以赛亚弥迦先知早有预言，可见神安排救主的降生，在历史中应验是何等地奇妙。

2.耶稣是光来照亮一切黑暗（V8-14）

神在两约之间有四百多年的沉默。对于神的选民，他们渴望弥赛亚早日到来，拯救他们脱离控制与困锁。天使显现与报信是最大的喜讯。因为这个喜讯给人带来重见光明的希望。

3.刻意生在律法下成为救赎（V15-24）

耶稣即是亚伯拉罕的的子孙，为女子所生，且生在律法之下，就当受割礼。给他取名叫耶稣，耶稣即约书亚，乃耶和华的救恩之意。因此耶稣谦卑生在律法之下，就是要把律法之下的人给救出来。

二、遵行神话得知使命（2:25-39）

神的话像方向标一样引导我们。当我们学会读神的话、行神的话，就一定可以明白我们的责任与使命。

三、孩童耶稣与众不同（2:40-52）

童年的耶稣以父的事为念，目标清晰，更是儿女当顺从父母的好榜样。因此，他的智慧和身量并神和人喜爱他的心都一起增长。

总结：

不要让成长的环境，和眼前所见的限制了你的眼光，以至于无法看清上帝在你生命中的托付与祝福。同时，当我们愿意信靠及顺服神的带领，认定祂的同在，祂终必带领我们通过考验并进入丰盛之地。

Introduction: Self- recommendation

1. Jesus' birth brings hope (2:1-21)

(1) Jesus came into the world according to prophecy V1-7

Joseph and Mary purposely travelled south from Nazareth to Bethlehem because of enrollment in the book of the Lord. As a result, Jesus was born in the city of Bethlehem; in fact, the prophet Isaiah Micah had foretold this, so we can see that God had arranged for the Saviour's birth, and how marvelous it was to be fulfilled in history.

(2) Jesus is the light that illuminates all darkness (V8-14)

God was silent for more than four hundred years between the two covenants. For God's chosen one, they longed for the Messiah to come soon and rescue them from their control and bondage. The angelic appearances and announcements were the greatest glad tidings of all. For this glad tidings brought the hope of seeing the light again.

(3) Deliberately born under the law to be saved (V15-24)

Jesus, the son of Abraham, born of a woman, born under the law, was to be circumcised. He was given the name Jesus, which means Joshua, the salvation of the LORD. So Jesus humbled himself to be born under the law to save those under the law.

2. Obeying God’s Word to know of the mission (2:25-39)

God's Word is like a directional sign that guides us in the direction we are going. When we learn to read and act on God's Word, we will surely understand our responsibility and mission.

3. The child Jesus was different (2:40-52)

The child Jesus was mindful of his Father's business and had a clear goal, and was a good example for children to obey their parents. As a result, he grew in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and man.

Conclusion:

Don't let your upbringing and what you see limit your vision, so that you cannot see God's commitment and blessing in your life. At the same time, when we are willing to trust and obey God's leading and recognise His presence, He will ultimately lead us through trials and tribulations. He will lead us through the trials and into the land of abundance.
