    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 15, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,160 views

    Paul's mindset toward death and his attitude toward life were both extremely positive. Each are examined along with the interaction of the two. Most believers do not view life or death as Paul did.

    A sermon preached at an area Reformation Sunday worship service on 10/25/2009 at Elk Horn Lutheran Church, Elk Horn, Iowa. It uses Jesus’ words of the text as Jesus’ "reformation words" for the people of his day, Martin Luther’s day, and today.

    Historically, Lutherans have taken the last Sunday in October and set it aside as “Reformation Sunday”, where we give thanks to God for the life and work of Martin Luther and other reformers of the church in the 1500’s who brought back to light the truth of the Gospel. It’s a day where it’s very ...read more

    Water baptism is only a symbol of what has happened in a person’s heart!

    As a church, one of our Statement of Faith is: Water baptism and the Lord’s Supper are ordinances to be observed by the Church during the present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as means of salvation. We also do not require water baptism for membership. Why do we say this? Being saved ...read more

    This morning I am going to speak to you about one of those things we all believe in but none of us likes to talk about – not my preaching, but the reality of hell.

    A few years ago I preached a message on hell. After the service I walked to the back of the church to shake hands with members of the congregation as they left the church. One lady said to me, “Reverend, I never knew what hell was really like until I heard you preach!” I wonder what she really ...read more
