So often, the message of the Bible concerning the coming into the world of God’s Messiah, at this time of the year, is buried beneath a mirage of secular concerns, as well as the many “humanistic good will” wishes and expressions for world peace; all of which only serve to obscure the true message for the reason of our Lord’s incarnation. The only way the world will find true peace is through the One who is the Prince of Peace, who by His sin-bearing, blood-letting death on the cross provides us with the way, indeed the only way to be at peace with God. Psalm 22 is surely the Psalm of the cross that sets before us, “Christ the Deliverer” (Psalm 22).
