God’s Final Word

God has a long track record of communicating with His people. He spoke through the prophets throughout the Old Testament, which gave Israel the distinct privilege of hearing from God. But these earlier revelations, while true and authoritative, were not God’s final and climactic Word.

It is in these “last days,” today’s reading tells us, that God has spoken to us “by his Son.” The Son, Jesus Christ, is “the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature.” He is God’s very “Word” made flesh (John 1:1–3, 14). He died for our sins, rose again, and is now seated at “the right hand of the Majesty on high.”

Though few realized it at the time, God was beginning to speak His final and most glorious Word when He sent His Son. The significance of this Word is explained and unpacked in the
New Testament. Therefore, if we want to be saved and grow in our knowledge of God, we need to look no further than Scripture’s testimony to Christ, the Son. He is God’s final Word.

Simple Summary

God spoke to His people through the prophets of the Old Testament, but now He has spoken to us in a much greater way. He has spoken to us by His Son, Jesus Christ. If we want to know what God is like, then we should listen to what the Bible teaches about Jesus.

Pray

Thank God for revealing Himself to us in His Son rather than leaving us in the darkness of sin.

To Us a Son Is Given

It was the most significant birth in the history of the world. The longed-for Messiah, the Savior, had come. And He was wrapped in cloths lying in a manger. Helping you reflect on these glorious truths is the goal of this Advent reading plan. Each day offers a Scripture reading, a brief reflection and summary of the passage, and a suggestion for prayer.
