Readings Jeremiah 15:10–21 Psalm 25 (MT 26) Romans 12:9–21 Matthew 16:21–28
Readings Isaiah 51:1–6 Psalm 138 Romans 11:33—12:8 Matthew 16:13–20
Readings Isaiah 56:1, 6–8 Psalm 67 Romans 11:1–2a, 13–15, 28–32 Matthew 15:21–28 Homily Transcript I suppose it is about time we deal with Romans 11 — not in the sort of fragmentary way of today’s reading, but in its totality. In fact, as none of you is watching or listening to this live, I highly recommend you pause here and go read Romans 11, or even Romans 9 through 11. I will leave a pause here to make that easier. … Now that you have read part of Romans, we will turn to Galatians. Galatians 4, starting with verse 21: 21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not listen to the
Readings Isaiah 56:1, 6–8 Psalm 67 Romans 11:1–2a, 13–15, 28–32 Matthew 15:21–28
Readings Job 38:4–18 Psalm 18:1–16 Romans 10:5–17 Matthew 14:22–33 Homily Transcript What sort of a God do you have? In one sense, the question can have only one answer, for the Lord God is and remains your God, whether you reject Him or not. The Ancient Israelites rejected God time and time again, and yet He remains on His throne. In another sense, the question is, perhaps, more interesting. What is your conception of the God you claim to worship? If your god would not flood the world and destroy nearly all life, then you surely have another god, not the Lord God. If your god would not comman
Readings Job 38:4–18 Psalm 18:1–16 Romans 10:5–17 Matthew 14:22–33
Readings Isaiah 55:1–5 Psalm 136:1–9, 23–26 Romans 9:1–13 Matthew 14:13–21 Homily Transcript To paraphrase Luther and Walther: ‘The sheep rightly judge their shepherds.’ To be certain, there is but one Good Shepherd and He is without error and beyond rebuke, but undershepherds — pastors and teachers — are mere men and are, thus, liable to err and are proper subjects of godly rebuke should they err. And yet not all sheep should rebuke their shepherds. Women, for instance, must not do so, for Scripture commands women to be silent in the churches and to inquire of their own husbands at home. Neit
Readings Isaiah 55:1–5 Psalm 136:1–9, 23–26 Romans 9:1–13 Matthew 14:13–21
Readings Deuteronomy 7:6–9 Psalm 125 Romans 8:28–39 Matthew 13:44–52 Homily Transcript Scripture is full of metaphor, analogy, symbolism, and dozens of other such rhetorical devices and figures of speech. This is, of course, not to say that there are not parts of Scripture that are simply literal — we do not want to wander off into the desert with those who try to torture everything into symbolism — or allegory. And yet we must recognize symbolism when and where God has employed it and then endeavor correctly to exegete and understand it. And so we must discuss ‘Jerusalem’. First, there is not

Readings Jeremiah 28:5–9 Psalm 119:153–160 Romans 7:1–13 Matthew 10:34–42
Readings Jeremiah 20:7–13 Psalm 91 Romans 6:12–23 Matthew 10:5a, 21–33 Homily Transcript Persecution has not been the universal experience of all Christians at all times in all places; there have been periods of peace, prosperity, and tranquility. (That these have virtually always been under the aegis of a Christian State with an established Church should not go without mention, but it will have to be a passing one today.) And yet, persecution has often been the fate of Christians down through the centuries (or even ages, if we want to include such men as Abel and Noah). And the existence of a
