Part 2 - SERIES: King Jesus
During Advent this year we're looking at the kingly nature of Jesus. Jesus perfectly fills three offices or roles that God ordained for the care of his people: prophet, priest, and king. Jesus is the perfect king of righteousness. God promised a savior as early as Genesis 3:15 to rescue us from sin and conquer evil. The rest of Scripture traces the fulfillment of this promise, which is in Jesus, the King of Righteousness. God promised a king who always does right and befriends his people. Jesus, the King of Righteousness, gives his righteousness to us.
