Sermon for First Sunday of Advent
[Machine transcription] Jesus says it is like a man going on a journey when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore, stay awake. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, what does Jesus mean by this command to stay awake? He surely doesn’t mean that the Christian…
Sermon for Last Sunday of the Church Year
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, I’m excited because I just noticed something for the first time that I have, I don’t know how many years I’ve been alive, and I’ve never seen it before in the Nicene Creed, that we say I believe in the Holy Spirit, I believe in one holy Christian, an apostolic church, I acknowledge…
Sermon for Twenty-fourth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, we rejoice that our Lord Jesus is returning in glory soon for us. And this for us, for the Christian, is not a frightful thing or something to worry about. It’s, in fact, something joyful and something that we’re looking…
Sermon for All Saints
[Machine transcription] These are they who have come out of the great tribulation. They’ve washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. You may be seated.

Sermon for Reformation
[Machine transcription] For there is no distinction. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Amen. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, I want to think today about this hymn that we sang, the – well, I don’t know, the second hymn that we sang…
Sermon for Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment, and he said to him, “Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?” And he was speechless. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear saints, the wedding garment seems to be the main focus of this parable of our Lord…
Sermon for Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] Jesus says the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but when it falls on anyone it will crush him. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, there are a number of beautiful pictures all throughout the scriptures of the church, and the descriptions are of how the Lord is and how we are with Him. Just to take an…
Sermon for Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. To Charlotte and all the baptized, these words from Psalm 103 are how the Lord clothes us in his righteousness and forgives all of our sins. He does not deal, this is what the verses say, he does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities; for as high as the heavens are above the…
Sermon for Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, there is a Latin phrase that you learn at seminary that is, I think, helpful this morning. The phrase is *satis doctrinae*, and it basically means the seat of doctrine, or the place where the Bible teaches clearly a certain thing. You know how in the catechism it’ll have a question and then an answer…
Sermon for Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Blessed are you, says Jesus to Peter, blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood have not revealed this to you, but my Father, who is in heaven, and I tell you, you’re Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Amen. Dear saints of God, we have this…
