Gospel (54)

  6. In elementary school, children are taught that America was a destination for Christians in search of religious freedom. But that’s not the truth.
  7. God is for us in His foolish, scarred Word and Wisdom. Nothing is against us, nothing can separate us from the love of Christ.
  8. A heart that wants nothing that is not from God can only occur by the Holy Spirit speaking the Gospel into our hearts.
  9. But where love is necessary we pray for our enemies and bless them in the hope that God will repent and convert them to the Gospel.
  10. This week, he tackles the idea behind the phrase "Here I Stand" and why Lutherans continue in the tradition of Standing firm in the Gospel.
  11. True faith, saving faith that receives the good news about the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world is a faith created in us by the Holy Spirit through the Gospel.
  12. The angriest people I meet are former Christians.
