Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is Christ the Lord.\u201d<br \/><strong>Luke 2:10\u201311<\/strong><\/em><\/p><p data-start=\"229\" data-end=\"910\">While the Lord Jesus was being born in the city of Bethlehem, outside the city shepherds were keeping watch over their sheep that night. <em data-start=\"366\" data-end=\"496\">\u201cAnd behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.\u201d<\/em> It is interesting to note that every time an angel appears in the accounts surrounding the birth of our Lord, the people to whom they appear are afraid\u2014Mary in Luke 1:30, Joseph in Matthew 1:20, even a few months earlier Zacharias was afraid (Luke 1:12\u201313), and now the shepherds are greatly afraid when the angel\u2019s glory shines around them. Which of us wouldn\u2019t be afraid if an angel appeared among us, glowing?<\/p><p data-start=\"912\" data-end=\"1172\">This word <em data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"929\">shone<\/em> is used only one other time in the New Testament\u2014when the Lord appeared to Saul of Tarsus: <em data-start=\"1021\" data-end=\"1158\">\u201cAt midday, O king, along the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me\u201d<\/em> (Acts 26:13).<\/p><p data-start=\"1174\" data-end=\"1759\">As I considered the fear that gripped each of those present at the birth of the Lord Jesus, my mind went back to the Garden of Eden\u2014to Adam and Eve. They had never known fear until sin entered the world. When the Lord called for Adam, we read that Adam answered, <em data-start=\"1437\" data-end=\"1529\">\u201cI heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself\u201d<\/em> (Gen. 3:10).

And we experience shame because of our sin.<\/p><p data-start=\"1999\" data-end=\"2398\">But the word that surrounds the birth of our Lord is <em data-start=\"2052\" data-end=\"2070\">\u201cBe not afraid!\u201d<\/em> The angel declared to the shepherds, <em data-start=\"2108\" data-end=\"2175\">\u201cI bring you good news of great joy that will be for all people.\u201d<\/em> The Lord Jesus Christ came to demonstrate the love of God, and <em data-start=\"2239\" data-end=\"2383\">\u201cThere is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment.
