Gospel Peace and the Advent of Jesus, 12/8/24

Today's sermon was on Gospel Peace and the Advent of Jesus. The presence of Emmanuel, God with us, brings us peace. This peace is not only our eternal peace with God through salvation, but the peace we can have now. How is current peace possible despite our circumstances? Through the fruit of the Spirit, living by faith as we remember the truths of scripture, and praying. Be encouraged to live by faith for a life of peace even now.
