"O come, O come Emmanuel..." The essence of this song speaks to hope breaking in at the first coming of Jesus at Christmas. He "ransomed captive Israel," "dispersed gloomy clouds," and freed us from "Satan's tyranny." Advent speaks to the fact that if Jesus came once and did these things, then we can rest assured that He will do it again! On Sunday, we will look at Romans 13:11-14, as we focus on becoming a people who live with anticipation of Jesus' movement towards brokenness and a confidence in his engagement of those in need! Don't forget that our Advent Guide also begins today. A downloadable PDF version is available at vintage242.com under resources.
