#ADVENT2018

(Psalms 2, 118 Isa. 9:6-7, 52:13-53:12)

(Mat. 1:18-2:23 Luke 1:5-2:40)

There’s something about this whole story line I find both awesome and disturbing. In fact, it may actually take eternity to completely decipher all of it. For example, the subject of creation itself carries its own burdens and challenges that are still being revealed to this day. However, all its supporting editorial pales in comparison to the theme of its redemption, to which creation itself points. Odder still is the low-profile and very low-tech method by which this entire phenomenon was revealed. That may be one more reason why Babylon is still reveling in her own sense of accomplishment and self-interest, especially this time of year. Though I still wonder why the Lord bothered, I’m sure this will make good sense when He decidedly makes all things new.
