Emmanuel, ecclesia and eternity

Today's talk follows the story of God with us—from Jesus’ arrival to the church’s calling and our eternal hope. In Christ, God dwells among us to save us, reveal his glory, and give his Spirit. He is the true temple, the source of life and worship. Now, the church is his Spirit-filled people—reshaped by Jesus’ heavenly work to reflect his rule and presence on earth. And one day, all nations will gather in a restored creation, where God’s people will live with him forever, mirroring his goodness in full.
