By: Dr. Chris Moore
Series: 2015 Joy to the World
When we think of the Christmas story, we usually think of Matthew’s or Luke’s account and we think about a manger, shepherds, and angels singing. In this sermon, we look at the Christmas story according to the book of Revelation, and we discover there is a lot more happening behind the scenes. Christmas is about a cosmic battle that continues to this day. We can be confident in the battle, and this text gives us good reasons why we can be confident even when it seems like the enemy is winning.
