Christmas at The Austin Stone (2016): The Altar of Incense
Summary
During the Advent season, which signifies the coming and arrival of Jesus, we are reminded of our tendency to forget His significance, similar to the Israelites in Exodus. The sermon highlights John 1:14, emphasizing that "the Word became flesh and dwelt among us," drawing a parallel to the Old Testament tabernacle. The practical takeaway is to actively remember, celebrate, and long for Jesus' first coming and anticipate His second coming.
