Sermon for Populus Zion, the Second Sunday in Advent AD 2024
Dec 8, 2024 • Rev. Christopher Antonetti
What hope would we have without this holy sacrament of the Lord’s Body and Blood? Our Lord came in His first Advent, born of Mary, before he departed gave us this holy meal. We have a taste of His presence with us as we await for His return. We can say that wherever and whenever we live, we are entering that continuity between the Last Supper in the Upper Room on Maundy Thursday and the Final Wedding Feast of the Lamb when Christ returns in Glory. Of these two feast, Christ promises to continue to give us a bite, so we can press on in this world which is filled with despair.
