11/26/23 Sunday’s Sermon by Nick Perez

Good News for Christmas

Isaiah 9:6-7, ESV
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.

Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The seal of the Lord of Hosts will do this.
