Title: The One Who Came Back — Trinity 14 Sermon (Luke 17:11–19) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ten lepers cry out to Jesus for mercy. Ten hear His Word. Ten believe His promise and go on their way to the priests. Ten are cleansed. But only one comes back. The one who returns is the least likely of them all—a Samaritan, a foreigner, and a leper. The other nine receive the earthly blessing they wanted and continue on their way. The Samaritan returns to Christ, falls at His feet, and gives thanks. Their cleansing was not defective. Their faith had not been false simply because they later fel
Who Is My Neighbor? — Trinity 13 Sermon (Luke 10:21–37) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The expert in the Law asks Jesus, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” But an inheritance is not earned. Someone else earns it, and it becomes yours through his death. When the lawyer tries to justify himself by asking, “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus gives him far more Law than he expected. The Good Samaritan shows that loving our neighbor means more than avoiding murder or outward wrongdoing. Wherever God places someone who is suffering before us—friend or enemy, foreigner or fellow citizen—w
Paul E. Kretzmann on the Revelation of St. John (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Last Christian Ministries , we begin our reading through Paul E. Kretzmann’s commentary on the Revelation of Saint John from The Popular Commentary of the Bible . Kretzmann represents an older Lutheran approach to Revelation that takes seriously the historicist framework found in Luther and maintained by generations of Protestant interpreters. At a time when even many modern amillennial commentaries have moved away from historic interpretations in favor of broad and often vagu
The Blood That Cries Out — Trinity 11 Sermon (Genesis 4:1–15) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cain was the firstborn—the son in whom Adam and Eve placed their hopes. Abel was the insignificant one, a mere “breath” or “vapor.” Yet God rejected Cain’s offering and received Abel’s, because Abel offered his sacrifice by faith, clinging not to his own works but to God’s promise. Cain and Abel reveal a division that runs throughout the history of the Church: the false church trusts in its works, its institutions, and its own importance, while the true Church lives by faith in the promise of Go
When God Comes to Visit — Trinity 10 Sermon (Luke 19:41–48) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus wept over Jerusalem because it did not recognize the time when God came to visit. He warned that enemies would surround the city, its children would perish, and its stones would be thrown down. Less than forty years later, Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed by the Romans in A.D. 70—events described in horrifying detail by the Jewish historian Josephus. The destruction of Jerusalem stands as a warning against mistaking God’s patience for His approval. Churches may prosper, religious in
