Advent is a time of reflection on our need for the light of Christ in the darkness of sin, but we have a difficulty in understanding our hearts. We often try to utilize artificial light to help us navigate the darkness of the world and our heart, but it cannot take us out of the darkness. This sermon is about how dark our sin really is in each of us, and how precious it is that true light has come into our hearts and will expel the darkness forever.
Application Questions:
1. Why do we need the Light of Christ to shine in the depths of our hearts?
2. What are the artificial lights you are tempted to make as idols in your life?
3. How does the truth that Jesus is the light of the world change how you look at the darkness of sin in your life?
