At Christmas time, Advent calendars serve as a tangible reminder of
expectation slowly moving toward fulfillment. Likewise, the Old
Testament records how the failures and weaknesses of Israel’s earthly
kings created a sense of longing in God’s people—a need for a perfect
King to come. Jesus’ birth was not an isolated event but the fulfillment
of God’s promise to establish His throne and His kingdom forever,
teaches Alistair Begg. In Jesus we find our long-expected, perfect King.
