Sermon - December 3, 2017 - First Sunday in Advent

The sermon for Sunday, December 3, 2017 is based on Mark 13:32-37

 

Today's Focus: Keep watch!  Jesus will come again!  Those who are busy doing their own thing, serving self, looking only for the cute and entertaining things that have become such a part of the world's Christmas culture, will not be ready for either his coming in grace or his coming in judgement. Make no mistake about it: He comes!  He comes in grace!  He comes in judgement!  How then should we prepare for both comings?  We do well to turn our eyes away from the glitter and the culture of the world and focus them instead first on our need for his coming and then on his sure and certain promise to fulfill that need when he comes.  We eagerly prepare by repentant watching.
