Advent

What is Advent?
The word Advent means “coming” and refers to the four weeks before Christmas.
John 1:14 “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” (NKJV) Christ came in the flesh! Advent is a time of preparation and contemplation. It is a time to prepare for the celebration of Christ’s birth, and a time to remember when, how, where, and why Christ came among His people.
John 14:23 “Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (NKJV) Christ came to each of us! Advent is a time of preparation and contemplation, a time to remember when, how, where, and why Christ came to each one of us.
Acts 1:11b “…‘This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.’” (NKJV) Christ will come again! Advent is a time of preparation and anticipation, a time to refocus on His imminent return for His beloved. The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!”
During this season of anticipation, the Advent celebration seeks to focus our hearts on the Christ of Christmas through a remembrance of the hope, faith, joy, and love that God has given through His gift of Jesus Christ.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (NKJV)
