The joy of Christ’s return
- By: Dr. Jack Graham
- December 27, 2023
“…This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”
–Acts 1:11
Now that we are past Christmas, you might be glad, as you have grown tired of the nonstop Christmas music you hear everywhere you go. Some Christmas songs or versions of songs I am glad to not hear for a year or perhaps ever again. But I just love Joy to the World. There’s something very funny about that song that most people overlook… it doesn’t even mention the birth of Christ. Go ahead, sing it and see for yourself!
That’s because this time of year was traditionally used to commemorate both the first and second coming of Christ. Therefore, Joy to the World is less about the first coming of Christ and more about the second.
You see, when Christ came the first time, He came in humility. But when He comes again, He will come in great honor and glory. When He came the first time, He came in human flesh. But when He comes the second time, He will come in the glory of God and of the holy angels!
Jesus declared it; the angels confirmed it; and the apostles explained it over and over again—Jesus is coming again. And that’s really the greatest promise of Christmas. While Jesus came once to die, He’ll come again to reign forever. So, remember that truth that the same Jesus born in Bethlehem will one day rule the world with truth and grace.
On that day, we’ll truly sing Joy to the World!
CHRIST’S FIRST COMING PREPARED THE WAY FOR HIS SECOND. SO SPEND SOME TIME THANKING GOD THAT CHRIST WILL RETURN.
