"The Promised Word: Jesus Is the Faithful Prophet" (Deuteronomy 18:15-22)

Is there a God? What is he like? How can we know him? How should we obey him? There are many people who say that they are speaking God's words or God's will. And yet often they contradict one another! So how do we know who is right? Our Advent sermon series is looking at the Old Testament promises (and images) of Jesus' coming.
