Sermon Text: Luke 10:16

It’s all about the sending. The Father sends Jesus. Likewise, Jesus sends disciples as His apostles. And this sending of the seventy-two is one of the foundation stones of the Office of the Holy Ministry. His words are their words. “The one who hears you, hears me” (Luke 10:16 ESV). You have Jesus’ Word on it, and His Word is sure.

Sermon Text: John 16:20 

“You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy” (John 16:20 ESV). You will have sorrow because this is a fallen world.
