Advent | Miraculous Birth

Miraculous Birth | Advent

To understand the virgin birth we need to see how it fits into the whole story of Scripture—a story in which miraculous births play a starring role.

Each week our Miraculous Birth Advent sermon series will focus on a different miraculous birth from the Bible — culminating in the birth of Jesus at Christmas.

  • Samson | Promontory Campus | Advent - Miraculous Birth

    Samson 13

    When God’s people are trapped in the cycle of their sin, God provides a saviour.  In the birth of Samson we see a pattern that is repeated throughout the Bible that leads us to the ultimate salvation in Jesus.  Samson was a flawed saviour, but in Jesus we have a perfect saviour who leads us to trust and worship Him.

  • Samson | Harrison & Lake Errock Campuses | Advent - Miraculous Birth

    Judges 13

    As we go through the story of Samson's miraculous birth we will look at God's Timing, God's Purpose & God's Promises. 

  • Samson | Agassiz Campus | Advent - Miraculous Birth

    The miraculous birth of Samson points to the miraculous birth of Jesus in that both were special deliverers given by God to save His people from their enemies. The greatest enemies that we face (Satan, sin, and death) have been defeated and destroyed through Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection. Through faith in Christ, we are delivered from these enemies, resulting in great peace, hope, and joy.

  • Samson | Chilliwack Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Judges 13:1-25

    Although Samsons birth and ministry were miraculous he ultimately fell short of the calling placed upon his life. Yet, as we look at how his birth and life parallel that of Christs we are drawn to the supernatural realities that where Samson failed Christ succeeded, and this realization gives us great hope this Christmas season.

  • Moses | Chilliwack Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Exodus 2:1-10

    This second Sunday of Advent we focus on the miraculous birth of Moses and the myriad of ways that it foreshadows the most life-changing miraculous birth of all: The Birth of Christ. 

  • Moses | Harrison Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Exodus 2:1-10

    Moses and Jesus’ stories contain some fascinating parallels. Shortly after their births, God delivers both of them from evil kings seeking to kill them. As adults, God uses Moses to free God’s people from slavery to Egypt, where Jesus frees God’s people from slavery to sin. Throughout these comparisons we discover that God is a rescuing God who both protects His people and delivers them to live in freedom from sin.

  • Moses | Agassiz & Lake Errock Campuses | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Exodus 2:1-10

    Moses: Unwrapping Christmas

    The story of Moses is a foreshadowing of the glory of Jesus. Each narrative in the Exodus reveals a Gospel truth. As we unwrap these truths we discover the fullness of what Christ has done for us, and who we are in Him.

  • Moses | Promontory Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Exodus 2:1-10

    Sometimes we pray and it feels like our prayers bounce off the ceiling.  Does God really hear our cries for help...and does He care?  3,400 years ago the birth of a baby in Egypt answers that question, and 1,400 years after that birth the cry of a baby lying in a manger reaffirms it!

  • Isaac | Promontory Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    Genesis 21:1-7

    As we enter into the Christmas season we are reminded that God has been preparing his people for the miraculous birth of Jesus through many miraculous births.  Abraham and Sarah had no hope of a child, and yet God is faithful to his promises and gives them a child.  This miraculous provision points forward to the coming of Jesus and the joy we have in Him

  • Isaac | Agassiz Campus | Advent: Miraculous Birth

    To understand the miracle of the virgin birth of Jesus, we need to see how it fits into the whole story of Scripture – a story in which miraculous births play a starring role. This Advent we start with the story of the miraculous birth of Isaac and how the promise made to Abraham & Sarah ultimately found its fulfilment in Christ and is available to all people in every generation. The result for us is the same laughter of joy that Sarah experienced long ago when the promise of God Almighty was believed in faith.
