The first Sunday of Advent brings us a profound sermon from Jeremiah 23, exploring the theme of divine authority and the role of human and spiritual overseers. This episode delves into how Jesus, the second person of the Holy Trinity, has shared his authority with undershepherds, both human and divine, despite their potential for corruption. It also addresses the rebellion of spiritual overseers and the historical chaos they caused, drawing parallels with the corrupted human shepherds of Israel.
Through Jeremiah's words, listeners are reminded of God's promise to restore His people, gathering them from all nations, and appointing true and faithful shepherds. The episode highlights the importance of Advent as a season of waiting for the ultimate fulfillment of God's promise—a promise that started with creation and finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the Good Shepherd. As we prepare for Christmas, the sermon invites us to reflect on the historical and spiritual journey of God's people, offering hope and reassurance of His unending grace and redemption.
