In this service of Advent we once again hear the prophet Malachi speak.  He asks the very question we ask today, “Who can endure the day of His coming?” As we look at our world with its confusion and struggles, we might wonder what the world is coming to. Will wickedness increase?  The Bible says it will, but that the Lord will return to judge and finally put an end to evil and sin.  We don’t know when the world will end or what it will come to in the meantime.  But we sure know who 

will come to the world, and has come – Jesus Christ.
