Gospel

If the feeding of the 5000 invited an emphasis on Jesus’ COMPASSION, this week’s miracle invites a sermon focused on Jesus’ AUTHORITY.

There is no justification except by faith alone. The radical forgiveness itself puts the old to death and calls forth the new.

“Rembrandt goes so deep into the mysterious that he says things for which there are no words in any language.”

The Gospels function like literary essays, composed with a specific thesis and purpose in mind. Each account of Jesus’s life acts as a treatise to show us something about the person and work of the Savior.
