Becoming Hungry: 40 Days of Lent (40 Days and 40 Nights)


Listen Later

In this third message recorded as a duplication for the original (preached at Mount Hope Church in Salisbury, NC, on March 7, 2021) 40 Days and 40 Nights explores the parallel between Jesus' wandering in the desert (Matthew 4) and that of the 40 Days and 40 Nights of wicked that Noah suffered before building the Ark (Genesis 8). And, likewise, this sermon discusses the relatability between these two stories, one of The Old Covenant of Noah generating new life for humanity, as the world flooded and destroyed the population thereof, and the New Covenant of Christ, coming down in flesh and redeeming man to give us a new spiritual life. In this delivery, the powerful symbols of water and Baptism, day and night, and faithful Noah and The Eternal Savior are compared and shown to be in agreement. Throughout these 40 days of Lent, may our sacrifice be a reminder of what our ancestors in The Faith have done before, sacrificing all. Let us call to mind our selves in this time until Easter, and call upon their assistance for help, finishing strongly this Lenten season in The Church.
