The Promises of Advent (28)
  1. While we do not have an answer, we do have a promise. A promise given to us by a God whose one and only Son was himself slaughtered by those terrified of losing their power.
  2. Abraham knew that this was a God who kept his promises.
  3. God does not combat the impending armies of Satan with might and power, but with the weakness of a babe.
  4. The Son of Eve disarmed Satan’s hold on humanity, not with an earthquake, atomic bomb, or brilliant essay, but with his dead body and final words, “It is finished.”
