[Zechariah said,] "Praise be to the Lord, God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed his people. He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David, as he said through his holy prophets long ago."
- What God does in Jesus, is not a surprise...
- It was unexpected, but the "hints" and prophecies of his coming are found all over the Old Testament
- The holy prophets had spoken about it "long ago." But more than the prophets, Jesus coming is God keeping his word!!!
- Jesus' coming is God's answer to his promises
- In Jesus, God comes, God ministers, God cares, God saves, God redeems, and God keeps his promises!
