Welcome from Brown Chapel/Avant & Mt. Pleasant
Prayer: Rev. Pelton
Scripture: Luke 2:10-11 - And the angel said unto them, "Rear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."
Subject: The Meaning of Advent
- Coming and arrival - the coming a arrival of Jesus Christ
- This is good news.
- No matter our situation here and now, Jesus is the good news.
- Jesus was born in Roman times which was not favorable to Christianity.
- Jesus came into this world to pay a debt - our sins
- Jesus came into a world of darkness to bring light.
- Jesus came as a prophet - for the kingdom of God is near. Jesus calls us to make a decision to come out of darkness. The disciples saw what Jesus could and did do. They had "on the job" training. Only after Jesus was raised from the dead did the disciples see the whole of Jesus' message.
- Jesus came as priest - one that acts as a mediator between man and God. He was the divine priest. We no longer have to sacrifice animals. Jesus will take on all your burdens and give you rest.
- Jesus is our King - His kingdom is not of this world.
Holy Sacrament
