The angels' announcement of “peace on earth” at Jesus' birth has often been misunderstood, leading many to question the Christmas message. While the world remains filled with conflict, the peace promised in Luke 2:14 isn't a cessation of war, but peace between God and humanity through Jesus. Dr. John explores how the true peace of Christmas is found in reconciliation with God, not the absence of conflict, and how this peace was revealed in the prophecy of Simeon, who saw in Jesus the fulfillment of God's promise of salvation.A Well-Researched Christmas: You can't tell the story of the birth of Jesus without telling the story of impossible problems, political intrigue and a great ancient promise being fulfilled among unsuspecting people. It's a hope so real and solid and explains why this amazing story of Christmas never gets old and will not pass away. In this 10-message Christmas series, Dr. John Neufeld unpacks the first two chapters of the book of Luke.

First of all, we've had a bit of a "situation" over here, and I'll share all the details in today's intro. But here's a little teaser: neighbors, overgrown shrubs, and me sneaking out in the cloak of darkness. If that doesn't paint a picture that'll make you want to listen, I don't know what will!
Have you discovered true peace? The peace you can only find in Jesus?
Speaker: Pastor Nick Date: December 15, 2024 Synopsis: Today as we celebrate Advent we look at the theme of PEACE and we tell several stories that culminate in the idea that Jesus rewrites our narrative around how enter into conflict and how we create peace in the world. Humanity's limited imagination seems to answer conflict with more conflict in order to obtain peace but Jesus demands that we understand that His spirit is here to bring and offer life ... even to those who have been excluded.

John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let NOT your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” Jesus gives us peace: 1) with God (upward) Romans 5:1 2) in the midst of our circumstances. (inward) Phil. 4:4-7; 11-13 Psalm 119:165 Rom 8:37 3) with others (outward) Romans 12:18 4) in the face of death (forward) Psalm 23:4-6 2 Thessalonians 3:16, “Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all”.
The Wonder of Christmas: Peace - KSBC LIVE - 15th of December 2024 by KSBC

Message by Jeff James
Matt Crow, High School Pastor
‘Silent Night'. It is one of the most beloved Christmas carols ever written, translated into over 300 languages. It also captures a theme many long for during the hustle and bustle of the busy season of Christmas… Peace. Written by Joseph Mohr in 1816 while he overlooked the sleepy town of Mariapfarr, it would later be put to music and performed for the first time in 1818. It has been sung by countless voices over the past two hundred years. Most notably on Christmas Eve 1914 when German, French and British troops along the Western Front had a Christmas truce. Amongst the conflict and chaos of war, all was calm and peace was found. But is that the peace that we celebrate at Christmas time? Or is there a deeper peace that Jesus' advent brings?

In this episode of On Mission, Chris Pierno, Amy Cardin, and Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C., discuss the peace that Christmas offers and how we are called to bring that peace into our lives throughout the entirety of the year.Christmas is the most wonderful time of year, people are most joyful and can be extra generous. However, there is no reason why generosity and peace cannot be brought into our lives in the entirety of the year. As Christians, Christ--the Prince of Peace--gives us his peace in our relationship with him so that we can share his message and his peace with all whom we encounter.

This week, Pastor Chris finished our Christmas Peace series teaching about relational peace. The peace of God reaches from the depths of heart and emotions all the way to our relationships with others. The full experience of God's peace hinges on being in right relationship with the Lord.

This week, Pastor Chris shared a brief exhortation in our Christmas Peace series. For many people, Christmas brings stress and hurry rather than peace. However, God has shalom (peace) for us through a relationship with Jesus. This is open to all who commit to trust in Him, walk with Him and be changed by Him.

PEACE.Peace, I give unto you. My peace. Not as the world gives. Mine is perfect peace. Let not your heart be troubled and do not be afraid!The words of the BABE OF BETHLEHEM. The most reassuring words, the words, the promises, which this world needs now so desperately. All humankind craves peace now more than ever, and that peace is more elusive than ever.In the end times, so say scriptures, there will be wars, rumors of wars, and physical brutality. Hatred among mankind will replace love. Jealousy, suspicion, lawlessness, and evil conduct will be how the world is. The peace of God in the person of Jesus Christ, THAT PERFECT PEACE, will be nowhere to be found, NOWHERE!Israel battles Hamas, the proxy of the brutal land and its rulers, Iran. There is enmity between the seeds, Arab and Jew, so says the scripture. That enmity is nowhere more evident than what now happens in The Holy Land, The Promised Land. The very land where the Babe of Bethlehem was born, the Christmas ambassador of peace has really never known that peace now more than ever. We are admonished as Christians to:PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.We pray, and pray more, and earnestly so, but that peace eludes in every way. It should be obvious to all that only the Messiah, THE PRINCE OF PEACE, the Babe of Bethlehem, Jesus Christ himself the Messiah, can bring that peace. That will come only WHEN HE COMES.War goes on. Hatred increases between Arabs and Jews, between Israel and Hamas. War goes on between Russia and Ukraine, war fostered by the evil dictator Vladimir Putin and civilians die, thousands upon thousands of innocent men and women, the elderly and children. They die without cause, craving peace, begging for it, praying for it, but it eludes them as the war-like hatred, the Christ-less hatred of mankind prevails. More of this will come. China will become a serious war monger and so will North Korea, and Iran, governed by men who dictate war, hatred, and killing, with no concern for human loss but only human destruction and more of it. The conduct of this world indicates clearly signs of:THE END TIMES.There would be nothing left of this world if those days were not shortened and the only one who can do that, THE PRINCE OF PEACE returns to take charge.When He does, swords will be ground into plowshares. The prince of Peace will make certain there will be no more wars, NO MORE! But, only the Babe of Bethlehem, whose birthday we celebrate soon, can bring that peace, can change whole nations and bring them to the Holy City of Jerusalem, to learn how to cooperate, work together, and foster peace under His rule of love. Only HE can make that happen, no one else.So, we who believe, believe in Him, His salvation message of love, healing, and PEACE. You should not worry or be afraid. Our Lord, the Prince of Peace, has admonished us:LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLEDNEITHER LET IT BE AFRAIDBELIEVE IN ME! Believe in my promises. Believe that I come again and I, He says, will bring the peace, the eternal peace which all humankind craves. I PROMISE I WILL DO THAT. So again, don't be troubled. Don't let your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe in Me and that promise. BELIEVE! I will bring the PEACE OF JERUSALEM and I will bring (Shalom) peace to the whole world.So, don't worry. If God be for us, who can be against us? No one or nothing can. PEACE-SHALOM I give unto you, so let not your heart be troubled. Rather, praise God for His unspeakable gift, the gift of His Son, Jesus of Nazareth:THE BABE OF BETHLEHEM.So, like the Angels of old, as they made that unbelievable announcement to the Shepherds about this divine birth, let us say with those Angels:GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHESTAND ON EARTHPEACE AND GOODWILL TOWARD ALL MANKINDAnd let us praise our God for that gift.And let us worship Him as the angels do, those of us especially who believe in that Salvation message which came from Bethlehem of old.And let us be thankful unto our God for his unspeakable gift. We cannot describe in human words the wonder, the magnitude, the depth of the love of that gift but we can now and evermore give thanks, and praise, and worship, and GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST! All the while we pray for that promise of peace on earth and goodwill toward all mankind, and for the soon return, THE SOON RETURN of the MESSIAH:THE PRINCE OF PEACE.So, we thank you, Father God, I thank you for our Savior, your precious son:OUR LORD JESUS CHRISTTHE PRECIOUS BABE OF BETHLEHEM!
Advent - Unwrapping Christmas Peace // Scott McPeak
This week, Pastor Chris continued in our sermon series called Christmas Peace. God offers us an authentic, biblical peace available through relationship with Jesus our King. When we come to Jesus, connect with Him and allow Him to change us, we experience a peace the world cannot offer. We can only have true peace in our life when we rest in Jesus' presence.
A VINTAGE CHRISTMAS - PEACE
This week, Pastor Chris started our Christmas Peace series. During the Christmas season, most people are looking for peace but instead experience stress and hurry. God offers us a heart-level, lasting peace the world cannot give. Through a relationship with Jesus, we have peace with God, ourselves, and those around us.
Kyle Walters | Philippians 4:4-9, Luke 2:10-14
Of all the passages that are read at Christmas, Luke 2 is perhaps the most famous. And in this most famous passage, the most famous word is peace. What is Christmas all about? Peace on earth. When Jesus Christ was born as a baby, he was born to bring this peace. But what is this peace on earth? We'll look at 1) what it is not, 2) what it is, and 3) how you receive it and live it out. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 22, 1996. Series: The Real Jesus Part 2; His Life. Scripture: Luke 2:10-14.
