This is the Christ
40 When they heard these words, some of the people said, “This really is the Prophet.” 41 Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Is the Christ to come from Galilee? 42 Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the offspring of David, and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David was?” 43 So there was a division among the people over him. 44 Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him.

This is the Christ
You know the whole story. Born in Bethlehem, of the lineage of David, announced by angels and worshipped by shepherds, the Christ was given to us. Indeed, this is the Christ that was promised of old. This is the Christ that crushes the head of the devil and takes away the sin of the world by dying on the cross. He is God’s anointed to make you and me his children and to wrap us in his righteousness. This is our boldness and our courage. The truth is always under attack. The world, the devil, and even the sinful flesh wants nothing to do with it. This really is the Prophet promised of old for the life of the world. He has done all things well. He loved to the end and gives his life so that you can live with him.
