The sermon for Sunday, July 15, 2018, are three meditations based on Ezekiel 2:1-3:4, 2 Timothy 3:10-4:5, and Mark 6:1-6

 

Today's Focus: Faithful to the Word.  Jesus preserves our faith even in the face of persecution.  We have seen that the Christian suffers in the face of natural calamities and that he too must face death, both his own and that of those he loves.  In circumstances such as these Jesus remains faithful to his Word.  Now comes the suffering that is the result of our faithfulness to that Word, of translating faith into faithfulness.  It is a suffering that is promised and that is most painful when it comes from those who have heard that the Word with us.  Even in the face of such offense he preserves faith in the Word by the Word.
