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 in Acts 10:34-48 we see Peter breaking through his prejudices because he realises that God's promises are for everyone - not just for the Jews. God shows no favouritism. We can be thankful for that. Tibor tells us of the conversion of Jeffrey Dahmer, a serial killer.
If we are shocked to think that a person like Jeffrey Dahmer could become a Christian, then we under estimate the power of God. Conversely, if we wonder how could God accept and forgive such an evil person then we do not fully understand the grace of God. For the Jews of the first century, the acceptance of gentiles into the church is their equivalence of Jeffrey Dahmer, such was the disdain for the gentiles by the Jews.
We need to consider how gracious is God because He has accepted us, and that is good news for us.
