Please Help Me to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! Today’s Gospel that the Holy Spirit has caused to be recorded is one of those rare Bible stories that every Christian knows. It’s a wonderful story from Jesus that is often labeled the Gospel within the Gospel since it so seamlessly shows us the glorious grace of God and His acceptance of sinners without any merit or worthiness on our part!

“Dead…Or Alive?” Luke 15:1-3,11-32
Please Help Me to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! Today’s Gospel begs the question: Why is there so much misery and suffering in the world? If God is just and holy and good and He truly loves us, why does evil and misery exist, even for faithful Christians? Sermon preached Sunday, March 23, 2025, by Rev. John L.

“The Temptation of Jesus” Luke 4:1-13
Please Help Me to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! This morning we have before us another very familiar portion of Scripture, one that you’ve heard many times before, one that is preached every year as a precursor to Lent. And this year the text is taken from St. Luke’s Gospel account of the Transfiguration of the Godman, Jesus Christ, where His face was altered, His clothing became dazzling white, as He stood on a high mountaintop, speaking with Moses and Elijah!

“A Glimpse of Glory” Luke 9:28-36
Please Help Me to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! In today’s Gospel, we find Jesus in the middle of His Sermon on the Mount. And in this portion of His sermon, He is teaching about criticism. And His teaching is put in the form of a command: “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven…” As we study today’s text, I have to warn you, it’s going to sting a bit!

“Specktacles” Luke 6:36-42
Please Help Me to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! In last week’s Gospel, Jesus taught His disciples and us what is required to build up the Christian church on earth. In essence, He told us it’s the awesome power of God’s Word with its supernatural ability given by His Spirit, that catches souls for the kingdom; Not gimmicks, not human works or cunning, not a new and trendy environment, but the Word of God. And Jesus said when His Word is taught and shared in its truth and purity, it has the power to do great things for God! Because this entire concept is so important for every Christian to know, I want to build upon the importance of that message, again today. Sermon preached Sunday, February 16, 2025, by Rev. John L.

“Net Result” Luke 5:1-11
Please Help to Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the World! SUBSCRIBE… LIKE… HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL…THEN SHARE! Our Gospel for today continues in St. Luke and begins immediately where we left off last week with Jesus’ departure from His hometown of Nazareth. The Bible tells us that from Nazareth, Jesus traveled to Capernaum, there as He was teaching in the synagogue, He is confronted by a man with an unclean spirit.
