Intro: The word "certainty", as recorded in verse 4, means "freedom from doubt; a clearly extablished fact; definite; fixed; sure to happen; unfailing; assured". In verse 3, Dr. Luke declares that it "seemed good to him to write unto Theophilus, that thou mightest know". This statement coupled with the word "certainty" implies that Luke wanted Theophilus to have a "state of being certain" rather than a moment
or period of certainty. As we began to survey and digest Luke's gospel, keeping in mind his plea for us to be in a state of certainty, there are several things that Luke reveals to us. That Jesus Christ was born a little over 2000 years ago is a historical fact, and we do not need the Bible to know that. But the divine certainty of His birth can only be known through the revelation of God's inspired and inerrant Word. The certainty of who He was, where He came from, what He was to do, and how long His ministry would be, were all predetermined and foreordained by a Holy God in eternity past. There was no searching all over heaven for one who would be Saviour. That fact was never in question. So we now need to concentrate our undivided attention as Dr. Luke sets the stage for all resulting revelation by declaring the certainty of the Christ Child. He shows us"
