He Shall Be Their Peace

(Micah 5:2-5a).  The Therapist, is a false christ who reduces sadness, unfulfillment, stress and averageness. Who is this false Christ? Do you worship him? The prophet Micah says that the Christ will be our real peace. Today, we turn away from The Therapist Jesus and turn toward the real Jesus who reconciled to himself all things, making peace by the blood of his cross (Colossians 1:20). This is the final week of the Advent sermon series called “Promise Fulfilled: Let us See (the Real) Jesus. I would like to acknowledge and recommend to you the book, “Will the Real Jesus Please Stand Up – 12 False Christs,” written by Rev. Dr. Matthew Richard and published by Concordia Publishing House (cph.org).
