Advent in Hebrews: Prophet // Rev. Matt Kennedy // Dec 1 2024

from Roseville Covenant Sermons · host Roseville Covenant Church

Despite the increasing commercialization of the holiday in our increasingly unchurched world, most people can still name who's birthday we celebrate on Christmas. His name and the circumstances of his birth are well known. What is less understood is what Jesus was born to do. Theologians have sometimes described Jesus' work in this world as his "Threefold Office". Jesus is a prophet, a priest, and a king.While the entire New Testament speaks about the work of Jesus, the book of Hebrews stands out as an extended meditation on the mystery of Jesus' nature and his work. This advent season our hope is to not just rehearse the particulars of Jesus' birth as we look to Christmas, but to contemplate his purposes in our lives. This Sunday we'll consider Jesus' prophetic work: speaking the will of God for the church, for the world, and for you and I.
