They awaited a conqueror; not a suffering servant. They awaited a political enforcer; not a spiritual healer. They awaited an earthly kingdom; not an eternal other worldly one. What the angels announced to those lonely shepherds – has come to pass and is coming to pass everyday! On this planet, this sick, sinful, fallen planet; we now have: Peace with God and peace among men.
