Before we can celebrate the birth of Christ, we must reckon with the holiness of God and the depth of our sin. Isaiahʼs vision reminds us that Advent begins with awe. Jesus who comes to us in the manger is the same Lord who sits enthroned in glory. Yet the coal that once touched Isaiahʼs lips has become the cross that purifies us forever. Like Isaiah, we who have been forgiven are now sent out with a message of hope.

Today Pastor Jonathan is teaching on Philip's encounter with the Ethiopian eunuch and how he witnesses to this man and teaches him who Jesus is. Philip was just an ordinary person in the church - he wasn't an apostle or one of the leaders, but God used him to present the gospel to this Ehthiopian official.
Was this coincidence that these two men met, or was it a divine appointment, orchestrated by God? Jonathan presents that it was a divine appointment. Anytime when we are challenged to present the gospel to someone, God has already started the process for the person to hear, so we need to adopt the attitude that something extraordinary will happen when we obey God and be both obedient and expectant.
After all, the entire Book of Acts is about ordinary people doing extraordinary things by the power of the Holy Spirit, and these things did not stop in the first century.
