Sermon Discussion Questions
- As you read Luke 1:31-33, pause to reflect on who Jesus is. What titles / names has Jesus been given? What Do these names mean to you as a believer, and what does it spur you on to do?
- Emmanuel has come. Christmas is about Jesus Christ our King. What is the significance of God sending us this gift of Christ? What does God coming to be with us show us about His character and do for our relationship with Him?
- He is a Wonderful Counselor and still our Mighty God. How do these two aspects of Jesus minister to us? What can we take comfort in and draw strength on?
- Why is forgiveness our greatest need and Christ our Savior, the greatest gift? How is it aligned with God as our Everlasting Father and Prince Of Peace? How can we receive or share this gift with others? (Rom 5:1)
