Advent-tagious!
Adventus is the Latin word for "coming", and is the exact Latin equivalent for the Greek word parousia, commonly used in reference to the Second Coming. Thus the season of Advent serves a dual reminder of the original waiting that was done by the Hebrews for the birth of their Messiah as well as the waiting that Christians today endure as they await the second coming of Jesus the Christ.
I have never really observed advent in a traditional sense, so I have decided to incorporate "advent" into my blogging.
Day 1
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
John 1:1-5
Jesus Christ, eternal. 'Logos' which is the governing power behind all things. Jesus created everything that is, and later came to dwell among His creation. What a beginning to the most amazing love story ever told.
