In keeping with the "Advent" season, I wanted to commit the next four sermons (this morning, being the first), to opening up a summary of the glorious advent of our Blessed Savior.
This morning, we will begin by considering the "foretelling of the Christ," standing in the shoes of our first parents, looking forward and longing for the promised Savior, who would usher in a kingdom of peace, in the light of their dreadful fall, which has infected the entire world, with a terrible curse of depravity and unrest.
Please pray about these next four weeks, that God would be pleased to present the glory of His Beloved Son— the very center and purpose, for which, everything exists— through weak and tainted lips, which are, by far, not worthy of conveying such a wondrous and holy message. That said, let us travel back then, to the beginning. Let us consider the "curse," which necessitated the desperate need for a divine Savior to rescue this lost and fallen world. |
