Healing
We need healing. Our world is in need of healing. So much sickness: physical, mental, emotional. There is so much that is unhealthy and life draining. Jesus came to bring healing. Because of His coming, we live with the hope of a new creation in which there will be perfect healing. As citizens now of this new creation, we strive to be agents of biblical healing in our lives.
From Series: "Why He Came"
Our Advent Series this year leads us to take a step back and look at the big picture of what we will celebrate at Christmas. Why did Jesus come? It was more than showing us the love of God. It was more than living as an example. It was more than the forgiveness of our sins. It was nothing less than bringing about a new creation, free from sin and all its corruption. Each week of Advent, using the readings from the prophet Isaiah, we’ll look at one of the aspects of the New Creation that Christ has won for us. We prepare to celebrate His coming by celebrating the blessings that will be ours in eternity because of His coming.
