Sermon for Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. Dear Saints of God, we rejoice this morning, especially in the gifts that Jesus gives us in His Kingdom, in His Church, in what is said in the Sermon of Hebrews is Mount Zion. But first, I don’t want to skip over the Gospel, because it’s a tough one, and we want to…
Sermon for Tenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints, I’ve heard recently, in fact a lot in the last month or so, of pastors, brothers in the office who were criticized for preaching too much about politics and culture from the pulpit. Now, I understand that criticism because when we talk about these things, we need to take extreme care and be very…
Sermon for Ninth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints, Jesus continues to get after us today in the sermon, which is a continuation of the preaching from last week, where Jesus is assaulting the idol of Mammon and our tendency to worship our possessions and live only for this life. There’s a connection between the two texts, actually last week and this…
Sermon for Eighth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] Jesus says, take care, be on your guard against all covetousness. For one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. But dear saints, being a Christian requires courage, especially because Jesus and the Spirit which proceeds from Jesus in the throne of the Father sets us against…
Sermon for Seventh Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, the disciples come to Jesus and say, “Lord, teach us to pray.” God be praised that we have what Jesus taught, that he would also teach us today how to pray. We’ll pull five quick things from the text and look at it now. The first thing I want to notice is that prayer is taught. This is…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Your saints have gone. Jesus sends the seventy-two ahead of Him to prepare the way as He Himself is traveling down to Jerusalem. We’re going to look at this, the gospel lesson from Luke chapter 10. In fact, if you want to follow along in your bulletin, I just want to march along through it and rejoice in it,…
Sermon for Third Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, for freedom, for freedom, Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Saint Paul, in his epistle to the saints of God in Galatia, is emphasizing this fact, this gift, this truth of our Christian freedom, and I want to think about it this morning in two ways.…
Sermon for Second Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. The Holy Scriptures remind us that we, Christians, are surrounded by enemies on every side: the world, the flesh, and the devil. The Old Testament and New Testament remind us that the devil and his demons are after the Lord’s people. And especially, we see this in the Gospel, more than in the Old Testament and in…
Sermon for Trinity Sunday
[Machine transcription] The Lord said to my Lord, sit here at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool. You may be seated. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. Dear Saints, there are two or three great mysteries, great confessional, doctrinal things that make us Christians different than the rest of the world. Three things…
Sermon for Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, Jesus says to the disciples, it is to your advantage that I would go away. Again, we wouldn’t believe it unless the Lord had said it and it was written down, inspired by God the Holy Spirit, but how could it possibly be? To our advantage that Jesus has gone away. Wouldn’t it be better if Jesus…
