The 1st Sunday of Advent. And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.
Scripture talks a lot about signs.
Things that signify. Things that show other things. Things that show truths. Things that are discernible but that indicate more than we can discern. The scripture is full of signs, the life of the church is full of signs, and I think we at St. Andrew's value those signs very much.
