”Israel’s Missed Mission: Christ’s Active Journey”

In this enlightening sermon, we delve into the profound teachings from the book of Malachi, chapters 3 and 4, highlighting Israel's historical failures and God's ultimate plan for redemption. The scripture reveals the purpose God intended for His chosen nation—to gather and call back the other nations scattered at the Tower of Babel, embracing a mission that Israel faltered in fulfilling.

The discourse further explores the symbolism of scattering, drawing parallels to the communal expectations set in the Bible and the New Testament fulfillment through Christ. By examining Jesus' role in correcting humanity’s course, listeners are encouraged to see themselves in the narrative of history and God's salvific mission. This journey through scripture emphasizes Jesus’ life as the embodiment of Israel's responsibilities, ushering in the hope of re-Edenizing creation and gathering the scattered Gentiles back to Yahweh.

Join us as we anticipate the hope and promises of Advent, understanding our role as 'scattered ones' from Babel and embracing the salvation story that unfolds through the life and work of Jesus Christ. This sermon urges faith and active participation in God's ongoing mission, inviting believers to witness and partake in the divine transformation of the world.
