On this first Sunday of Advent we begin a new series titled "Prepare the Way." Throughout the Advent season we will be looking at old testament prophecy and how Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of that word of God. Advent is a time when we celebrate the three incarnations of Christ. First, he came as a babe in Bethlehem, born to become a man who would bear the sins of the world on the cross. Next, he lives in each of us in word and in spirit. Finally, at the end of all things he will come again in the clouds in great glory and power. At that time, we who have put on Christ may stand in the presence of our God.
