Fusion: week of 12/21

FAMILY THEME: THE PROMISE

JUST AS PROMISED

II Kings 16:1-5; Isaiah 7:1-14; Matthew 1:18-25

God promised and delivered a Savior.

1.  Human Wickedness Cannot Stop God's Promise

     (II Kings 16:1-5)

     Man's wickedness does not hinder God's ability to

     keep His promises and fulfill His purposes.

 
2.  Human Doubt Cannot Stop God's Promise

     (Isaiah 7:1-14)

     Isaiah tells us more of Ahaz's story. Incredibly, as

     enemy troops waited just outside of Jerusalem, God

     gave this unbelieving king one of the most beloved

     prophecies of all.

 
3.  Jesus is the Promised Savior

     (Matthew 1:18-25)

     Isaiah's prophecies were ultimately fulfilled in Christ.
