Shepherds and Angels?
(Unwrapped: the Truth about Christmas #20)
What's in the series? Previous: Born in a Stable? Next: Three Kings?
According to Luke's account, on the night Jesus was born, there were some shepherds in the fields nearby. They saw some angels, who told them that the saviour had been born.
This seems a very strange story to our modern way of thinking. But if God is real, then the birth of Jesus is the most important thing that has ever happened. What is so strange about angels announcing it?
Why did Luke include this account? The angels announced good news – news of peace with God; news of the arrival of someone who can rescue his people; and news of great joy for the whole world. If this is true, nothing can be more important.
