The Announcement of His Coming (Rev. 19:1-10)

[Sung Psalm: 45]

We saw three weeks ago that the first message of Advent is: Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, for the King is coming!

Two weeks ago we saw that the second message of Advent is: We need Jesus!! And if you want Jesus then you will need to "come out" of Babylon, become like a little child, and organize your life around Jesus.

And that leads to the third message of Advent: that we need to be ready for his coming – and we get ready by putting on the clothing that Christ has given us

Like the bride in Psalm 45 – we come to Jesus, the one who has washed us and cleansed us in his own blood – and who has given us white garments (Rev 3:5; 6:11).
