This Sunday we continued our Advent series When God Came Near by looking at Galatians 4:4–7. Paul reminds us that when God sent His Son, He came fully God, fully human, and perfectly sinless—uniquely qualified to save. Jesus came near with the power to restore what was broken, the humility to stand in our place, and the perfection to bear our sin. Because of the incarnation, we are no longer slaves but sons and daughters—welcomed into God’s family and freed to live in the security of His love.
