For God's Sake, Do Something!

Sermon Messages from Ascension Lutheran Church

Speaker: Rev. Murray Brindle

Scripture Focus: Jeremiah 26:8–15, Philippians 3:17-21, Philippians 4:1, & Luke 13:31–35

Service Summary: Throughout biblical history, God used prophets to call His people to repentance with the promise of mercy. God’s mercy should encourage us to return to Him, but too often, the people of God have refused His care. That is the story of Jeremiah, who was sent by the Lord to speak His Word, warn His people of disaster if they refused Him, and promise mercy to all who repent. It is also our story. The Law warns us of the failure to confess our sins and the Gospel promises forgiveness to all who confess and believe in our Lord Jesus Christ. Today, we pray the Lord to grant us hearts willing to hear His Word, confess our sins, believe in the forgiveness of Christ, and rejoice in this blessing all our days.
