Good News is Fulfilled

Good news that isn’t ever fulfilled isn’t actually good news. A loved one you haven’t seen is a long time tells you they are coming home for Christmas. But when Christmas actually arrives they are nowhere to be seen. What was supposed to good news is now nothing but heartache because the news was never made real. Good news must be more than good intentions.. When God told you that he was going to send you a Savior to reduce you from your sin, it was far more than a good intention. That is why he actually sent his Son to be born of a virgin. The good news of a savior is fulfilled.

Scripture References: Luke 1:26-38

From Series: "Good News For Christmas"

Imagine that your neighbor comes up to you and says, “Good News! We’re finally heading out for vacation.” While you may happy for him, it’s really only news—it’s good news for him but affects your life very little. Or imagine that you read in the news that two countries were in peace talks. You may be very happy at the prospect of peace, but unless it was your country then the peace talks are just news. Good news is always specific to you. In order for news to be good news it has to speak to a predicament you find yourself in. And in order for news to be truly good then it has to do something more than just make you happy. This Christmas God has news for you that is actually good. It speaks to a situation you are in and the goodness of the news lasts until eternity.
