Sermon Notes

Fault Lines and Restoration

Jesus fulfills in his sacrifice the Ceremonial and the Civil part of Old Testament covenants. However, the moral covenant of the 10 Commandments is still very much in affect.

Unlike our calendars, the New Year was recorded differently in the Old Testament times. Their New Year started with preparations for Passover.  However, things change for the Jewish people. 

For unto us a Savior is born!

Make a Place for Peace

And Mary said,“My soul magnifies the Lord, 47and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 48 for he has looked with favor on the lowliness of his servant. Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed; 49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me,  and holy is his name.

A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse;  from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.

As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

“At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.”

Daniel’s vision ends with…GOD IS COMING TO MAKE THIS RIGHT!
