Bishop Munib Younan Preached in Our Church
On the 2nd Sunday of Advent, Dec.10, 2017, Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land, and former President of the Lutheran World Federation, Bishop Munib Younan visited our church and preached from Revelation 21:1-4. The subject was: Jerusalem, the New Heaven and the New Earth. Bishop Younan addressed the issue of building the Kingdom of God, the New heaven and earth. In this "new earth" there will be no fear, no sorrow, no occupation, no injustice, no political plots, no repression, and no wall, rather all people live in freedom, justice and equality. This is not a dream that we wait for it in the future, rather it could be realized right now, and we have to work for it. In this sense God dwells with his people, for God's Kingdom is in our midst.
