The Fallen Tree

Series: The Real Tree of Christmas

Category: Reconciliation

Speaker: Jason Williams

This week we started our journey toward Christmas with our Advent sermon series, looking at how the Bible uses trees to bring about the full meaning of Christmas. On Sunday, we looked at the fall of the family tree of humanity in Genesis 2 and 3. In these chapters, we see how God’s laws are always for our good and how Satan twists the words of God to tempt man into disobedience. At the moment of the first sin, God announces that the curse of sin and death will impact the family tree of Adam and Eve. This curse not only sets the stage of human history for the birth of a Savior, but it also prepares our hearts to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas: eternal life through faith in Jesus.
