SUMMARY:Divine Worship
DESCRIPTION:Worship Service at 10:30am\n\nFOURTH SUNDAY IN ADVENT\n(24 December 2023)\n\n2 Samuel 7:1–11\, 16\nRomans 16:25–27\nLuke 1:26–38\n\nThe Lord Builds a House for David: Jesus Christ Who Comes in the Flesh\n\nWhen King David “lived in his house and the LORD had given him rest from all his surrounding enemies\,” he piously supposed that he would build a house for God (2 Sam. 7:1–2). But the Lord would turn it around: He would establish a house for David and an everlasting throne. This He has done not only for David\, but also for all His people\, in the Son of David\, Jesus Christ\, “conceived by the Holy Spirit\, born of the Virgin Mary” (Apostles’ Creed). That holy child\, the incarnate “Son of the Most High\,” receives “the throne of his father David” and begins to reign “over the house of Jacob forever” (Luke 1:32–33). Having given Himself as a sacrifice for the sins of the world\, His body is the true and eternal temple of God in which His people have their own place of peace and rest. That is “the mystery that was kept secret for long ages” but is now “made known to all nations\, according to the command of the eternal God” in order that we may have faith and life in Christ (Rom. 16:25–26).\n\n\nCoffee Service: Refreshments served after Worship

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Christmas Eve for a candlelight service as we celebrate the coming of the promised Saviour. The One who takes the sins of the world away. This is a service of singing and a special joyous Christmas message.\n\nThe Word of the Lord Is Fulfilled in the Flesh of Jesus\n\nThough Ahaz would not ask\, the Lord gives a sign to the House of David — “the virgin shall conceive and bear a son\, and shall call his name Immanuel” (Is. 7:14). With this promise\, He signifies that salvation is by His grace alone. It is no work or achievement of man\, but the Lord’s own work and His free gift. The promise is fulfilled as the Son of God is conceived and born of the Virgin Mary\, and the sign is received in faith by the House of David in the person of Joseph (Matt. 1:20–24). “Incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary” (Nicene Creed)\, God is with us (Immanuel) in the flesh of Jesus\, Mary’s Son. Joseph believes that Word of God and so demonstrates a marvelous example in his immediate and quiet obedience\, taking Mary to be his wife and caring for her in faith and love. He loves her because the love of God is manifest in this\, that “the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world\,” to be “the propitiation for our sins” (1 John 4:10–14)
