The Gentile Christmas

Contributed by Christopher Martin on Mar 12, 2009

An Epiphany sermon I preached on 1/7/2009 at the Salem Lutheran Home chapel, Elk Horn, Iowa.

In some ways, you could say that Epiphany is the “last hurrah” of Christmas. It’s the day when we remember the visit of the wise men, or magi as they are called in our text, to worship the Christ child and present the gifts of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh. It’s a great scene, one that’s often ...read more

Heaven Is A Marriage Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013

Marriage is about the union of two hearts, and in Heaven it is the marriage of Christ and His Church. If we do not see ourselves connected/united to Christ in a covenantal relationship, we will fail to grasp the nature of life after death.

In Revelation 21, John the Apostle sees Heaven as “a bride dressed for her husband.” The Apostle Paul in Ephesians 5 compares the union of husband and wife to that of Christ and the church. We are the Bride of Christ. It’s been said, regarding Heaven, the Bible provides the ...read more
