    This sermon talks about the incarnation of Christ and it as God’s move of intimacy toward the world.

    This is the season to use T. S. Eliot’s masterful phrase about the Incarnation: "the intersection of the timeless with time." Before it was Eliot’s, that way of looking at the birth of Jesus into human form was captured by John: John 1:1-4, 14, 16-18: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word ...read more

    What, then, do the parables teach? Church fathers such as Irenaeus and Augustine identified the treasure and the Pearl with Christ. The recent convert to Christianity says exactly the same thing: "I found Christ." Yes, it seems like we did find Christ.

    In his series of seven parables in Chapter 13, Matthew is quite elaborate ....... on the first two, providing an interpretation for each. The other five are shorter and more pointed in content. The parables of the hidden treasure and of the pearl consists of two sentences each. And in the ...read more

    These words were spoken to the physical Israelites: “For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior… (Isa. 43:3, NIV.) He who made the great claim added: “I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior” (verse 11, NIV). He is no ordinary savior! His Supremacy as ...read more
