Jesus said, "Come Unto Me, and I will give you rest." He said, "take my yoke upon you, and learn of me." What is it to come to Jesus? What is the yoke of Jesus? What are we to learn of Jesus so that we can find rest for our souls?

When the last word of the Old Testament is written, 400 years elapse before a prophet speaks again. Is God absent during this time? In today's sermon, we see how God was not absent.
