Second Sunday in Advent - C - December 9, 2018

The Focus of History

The Baptist preached in turbulent times. His message stood in contrast to the common wisdom of the age and the given political landscape at the time. Rome was not the greatest manifestation of divine power; implicitly, Caesar was not the king of kings. No, God's Kingdom trumped the Empire and the coming Messiah stood above all. John appeared to proclaim the Kingdom and its ruler.
