ADVENT 2 - THE PROPHECY
On this second Sunday in Advent
we celebrate the Messiah prophecy foreshadowed in Genesis, Numbers and
proclaimed by such Old Testament voices as the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah
and Malachi, and repeated by John the Baptist.
Isaiah also foretold John’s
coming. “A voice cries, ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make
straight in the desert a highway for our God.’”(Is40.3) John te Baptist was the
voice in the desert when Jesus came to Bethany, beyond the Jordan, where John
was baptizing. John, seeing him, saw the Spirit descend as a dove from Heaven
and remain upon him, and he cried out, “And I have seen and borne witness that
this is the son of God.” (Jn1.28-34)
Sunday school is at 9 a.m. and worship is at 10:30.
