Series: Advent and Christmas 2024

Speaker: Rev. George Sinclair

Date: 29th December 2024

Passage: Matthew 2:2-12

-------------------

Matt. 2:1-12 "God Draws You to Himself" December 29, 2024

The Lord draws the unlikely close to Himself. 1a. The Lord stoops to speak to you. 1b. The Lord does weird things! 1c. Embrace His miracles!

Beware! You can know about the Lord without knowing the Lord.

Jesus is the King who dies for people so as to make a people for Himself.

Knowing the sovereignty of God and the grace of God grows your prayer to Him.

Romans 15:4-13 "Transcendent Hope" "Transcendent Hope"

Series: Advent and Christmas 2024

Speaker: Rev. George Sinclair

Messiah Downtown

Date: 8th December 2024

Passage: Romans 15:4-13

-------------------

Romans 13: 8-14 "Transcendent Hope" Advent and Christmas 2024 December 8, 2024

Notes 1a. The Triune God is the ultimate author of the Bible.

1b. God's Word Written (The Bible) tradition, reason, creeds, councils, popes, theologians

1c. Only the Triune God could, and did, speak a word which is relevant and necessary to every people group and every age.

1d. We are to listen to the Bible, accepting its instruction, and seek in our understanding to be in harmony with our local church, the church around the world, and the church throughout time.

God's grace comes to you in Christ so that, “saved, welcomed, and hopeful you will be.”

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. (Romans 15:13 ESV)

4a. Optimism is rooted in the world of “one dang thing after another.” Biblical hope is rooted in the Triune God.

4b. While time and circumstance dash human hopes, the Triune God wants you to know His promises to you, and to know that He will always keep His promises.

4c. In His grace, at this moment, Jesus Christ has welcomed you - yes, the real you.

4d. In His grace, at the moment of your death, your eyes will close to this world, but your eyes will open see the new earth, and you will see Christ Jesus Himself, look you in the eyes, and welcome you in.
