“For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.” (Titus 2:11-14, ESV)
Pastor Abel’s Sermon on this passage is titled, “The Gift of Waiting”.
It is beneficial to take some time to personally read and reflect on many passages from the Bible on a particular topic (One way to find many verses that use a common word is to use a free online concordance). The theme of this week’s sermon was waiting. This week, I hope you will find some time to read the following passages which all relate to this theme. Underline the word “wait” as you do and reflect on what it means to wait on God, to wait for the salvation of the Lord. And have a merry Christmas!
