Luke 2:13-14 “And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, saying, Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward men”

Peace on earth, good will (favor) towards men. What powerful words spoken by the heavenly host praising God on the night that Jesus was born. This peace is not peace between men, but this peace is between God and man. This is the greatest news ever spoken. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, being born as a man, became sin for all mankind. Jesus took all the punishment, all the curse upon Himself when He died on the cross. God is no longer angry at men because of sin, He has sworn that He wouldn’t be angry anymore. That means that from God to man, the war is over! Let’s make this personal…there is now peace between you and God. As you celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, you can know that God is no longer angry at you. So, join all the heavenly host and rejoice and be glad, the war is over! Merry Christmas!
