Advent
Banner
This banner expresses three aspects about Advent, our season to prepare
for Christ's coming. The coming of Christ in the flesh
as celebrated at Christmas is symbolized by the Lamb of God - John the
Baptist's reference to Jesus. He carries the banner of victory over sin
and death. The coming of Christ in word and spirit is
symbolized by the parable of the wise and foolish virgins - Matthew 25.
The lamps with oil are lit at the top, those without oil are unlit at
the bottom. The coming of Christ in glory at the end
of time is symbolized by the book with the seven seals - Revelation 5.
