P. 19
G od promised that He would send His people a Savior, the Son of God.
From the beginning of time God spoke through His prophets of the coming
of Christ and what signs to look for. Generation after generation believed
these words. They waited and longed for the day when the Savior would
come and they would have peace. When the Savior, who was
Jesus Christ did come, He spoke these very words:
“Peace is what I leave with you; It is my own peace
that I give you. I do not give it as the world does.
Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid.”
John 14:27
The world is not what it promises. True peace, joy and acceptance
come only through Jesus Christ who humbled himself and entered the world
as a defenseless little baby so that we might accept Him in our hearts.
The scripture was fulfilled, for not only the people of Israel, but for
all mankind. Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world and if people let Jesus
into their hearts, He will set them free. He will give them peace; He will
fill their days with love and joy beyond understanding.
