The second candle on the Advent wreath which we light reminds us that God, through the prophets of the Old Testament, even revealed where the savior would be born. We continue to see how God preserved the lineage for Jesus to be born according to the prophecies. His humble birth in Bethlehem reminds us that he came to save all mankind, and even though he is king of all creation, his true throne is in our hearts.

The first candle on the Advent wreath which we light was originally called the Prophecy Candle. We follow the prophecy of God becoming true man and the prophecy of how his life and death would save us, as they are recorded throughout the Old Testament and the Gospel Books of the New Testament.
