The Mission of the Savior

As we close out another year and have cherished Christmas memories in our hearts, here is a reminder that Jesus came with a mission.

3 Reasons Christ Came:

1. Christ came to do the will of God by qualifying Himself to be our substitute. Through Him, we have been sanctified once and for all.

2. Christ came to save His people from their sins. "For all have sinned...", and each one needed a Savior. Jesus came to save from sin.

3. Christ came to gather all God has called to believe. It is God's will for all to come to repentance and call on His name.

Isaiah 61:1-4

“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me,

Because the LORD has anointed Me

To preach good tidings to the poor;

He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,

To proclaim liberty to the captives,

And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;

To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD,

And the day of vengeance of our God;

To comfort all who mourn,

To console those who mourn in Zion,

To give them beauty for ashes,

The oil of joy for mourning,

The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;

That they may be called trees of righteousness,

The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.”
