“The Holy Scriptures are our letters from home.” ― Augustine of Hippo

One of the necessary spiritual practices for Advent is a meditation on the Bible. Advent watch provides practical context and encouragement for people to read the scriptures from a spiritual perspective instead of just treating the scriptures like mere historical documents. What do Advent-watch and the Bible mean for us today?

Advent-watch, from a personal, spiritual perspective, is Bible-based and helpful in shaping the truth and the understanding of our identity and destiny in Jesus Christ.

Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Advent-watch reminds us that ‘no knowledge about the text is worth anything if it does not change us. No amount of theological understanding is worth anything if we do not apply it in our lives.’ Every page of the Bible, the whole scripture, calls us into submission to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and in preparation for His Second Coming.
