Church notes - 17th December 2017

17th December
Isaiah 9
Luke 1:24 - 36

Communion
Mark 13:33 - 39

Sermon - Joy to the World
The Lord is Come - a source of joy.
Luke 2:8 - 10
The Good News causes great joy. But this time of year is filled with anxiety for most people.
No lasting joy other than in the person of Jesus Christ. He came into this world.
God displaces our fears and anxieties
Psalm 98
It speaks of a Saviour coming
A new and conditional love.
Breaking News of great joy. Fullness of joy in Jesus' Presence.

Through the joy of Jesus the circumstances of our lives can be redeemed. This joy flows from the fact that Jesus has achieved victory over sin and death.
Repentance - thinking and acting differently.
Are you saying a default 'no' to Jesus.

Because they're aware of the joy, things looked different to the sheperds.

Revelation 4:8
