Description
That God intends to save the world from the curse of sin has been clear from the very beginning of the biblical story. But it is through the 8th-century BC prophet Isaiah that God begins to reveal the specifics of how this salvation will unfold. What emerges is a vision of a coming messiah (anointed one) who will bring a radical transformation to history. And in this first of four sermons on Isaiah, we look at the peace God will establish - a peace so complete that humanity will choose to forever turn their swords and spears into the instruments of harvest and abundance! The biblical passage referenced in this sermon is: Luke 24:13-27 (NRSV) Isaiah 2:1-5 (NRSV) What to listen to Kirk's Advent/Christmas playlist? Check out Christmas at 2AM on Spotify!
