Sermon for Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, the text takes us back 1,987 years and a few months to a debate between Jesus and the scribes and the Pharisees in the temple in Jerusalem. You guys can say to me, now Pastor, don’t we have enough debates now to worry about? I mean, aren’t there enough debates happening at this very moment…

Sermon for Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints of God, the Lord Jesus Christ gave to Peter the keys of the kingdom and says, whatever you bind is bound, whatever you loose is loose. Jesus extended that gift to the church earlier in Matthew chapter 18. He says, whatever you all bind is bound, and whatever you loose is loose. And so Peter is thinking about…

Sermon for Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, Saint Paul writes in Romans chapter 10, verse 4, these words: “For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.” The law of God was not given so that we could keep it and be right before God. That’s a futile dream, the ultimate failure to understand…

Sermon for Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, built as Christ’s body the Church, we continue to hear this morning from the Gospel lesson begun last week from Matthew chapter 16, where Jesus was confessed as the Christ, the Son of the living God, by Saint Peter, who was then blessed by Jesus. Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jorah! You are…

Sermon for Twelfth 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, dear Christians, Jesus has been traveling around with the disciples now up north in the region of Tyre and Sidon, over to the Decapolis, the Ten Cities, and now all the way up to the foothills of Mount Hermon, to Caesarea Philippi, to the pagan city that…

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, dear friends of God, we arrive in Matthew chapter 15 with Jesus and the disciples on the border region of Tyre and Sidon. It’s about as far north and as far west as Jesus would ever travel. As he has retreated into that region, he’s found by this dear…

Sermon for Tenth Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] Before the sermon, a quick word of thanks, both to God and to you for your prayers. I give thanks to God that he has stood me back up here in this pulpit and given his word to us today with such great comfort and peace. Thank you also for your prayers for me and for your family. The Lord has heard your prayers and he’s answered them. And I…

Sermon for Third Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, when I was in high school, I worked at a pizza place, Dion’s Pizza in Albuquerque, New Mexico. And I remember every once in a while, someone would come in and order a pizza with everything on it. I mean, everything. Pineapple and anchovy and sausage and bacon and ham and pepperoni, just the works.…

Sermon for Second Sunday after Pentecost

[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, we have this beautiful text today, the gospel according to Saint Matthew, chapter 9 and 10, and especially the sending that Jesus does of his disciples out into the cities before him to preach the gospel, the coming of the kingdom of God, to heal the sick, to raise the dead, to cast out demons.…
