Scripture: Matthew 28:16-20
Denomination: Lutheran
It has been called a Trojan horse song because it seems like it will be a love song between God and His people. Isaiah gets the attention of God’s people with this song. The people listened to and loved the song only to find they themselves are the scoundrel referred to in this song.
Songs are used for many purposes. There are love songs, worship songs even political protest songs. Isaiah who I think we could call the “singing prophet” composed an unusual song here. Once you have listened to the whole song you realize it is not what you first expected. It has been called a ...read more

Song of Solomon is about a man and a woman, their love, courtship, and marriage. It is an allegory of God's love for Israel and the church.
Before we begin, there has been a lot of discussion over the significance of the book of the Song of Solomon. Some might say that this is an exacting tale about love between a married husband and wife. While others will say that this is a moral story of God's adoration for Israel and ...read more

This passage gives us insights into one key scene where we find that God isn't done with Israel yet.
- It’s easy to read this passage vaguely. There are some nice phrases in there that you could use as pegs to hang a sermon on. One obvious one is the glory of God returning - it would be easy to write an inspiring sermon off that idea. - But there is another way to preach this passage and that is ...read more
Scripture: Ezekiel 43:1-12
2nd Corinthians 11 and the Parable of the Sower both Show us God as the Strength in our Weakness.
As we look at our lessons today, and I want to look briefly at both, comparing them together, (Glory to God) I’ll begin by sharing an old story some of you may know about a man named Phi-Dipp-adeez. I’d actually be impressed if you knew his name, but you probably know the name Marathon and Nike, ...read more

“We’re dying on the vine here!”
Today, we hear about pruning and abiding to bear fruit. Regarding pruning, “There’s a sucker born every minute,” is an expression used in the hope of making money selling something worthless to a gullible customer. Similarly, in gardening, sucker shoots are false branches or stems that suck the ...read more

Denomination: Catholic
Jesus was rejected by his family, by his local religious leaders, by Judas Iscariot, by Simon Peter, and then finally by God. So expect to be rejected if you share the Good News of Jesus Christ and him crucified.
The Old Testament word “hadel” is used in this verse that is transliterated as rejected, but this word has also been used in the Bible to mean forbearing. The word “hadel” is used in Ez 3: when God told the prophet that some will listen to the message but there will also be those who refuse to ...read more
Scripture: Isaiah 53:3
But when the father is a regular church-goer, but the mother is not, there is still a very good chance their children will continue in the faith.
A man was out on the golf course. He spotted another man who seemingly had four caddies. “Why so many caddies?” the first man asked the second. The second golfer replied, “It’s my wife’s idea. She thinks I should spend more time with the kids.” I suspect he’s the same Dad who was asked by his ...read more

Would you believe that no matter if people were good or bad, they went to Hades, not hell? Do you think ‘Hell and the Lake of Fire’ are the same. They are not.
— Lake of Fire — You may, as I did for a long time, have had casual thoughts that ‘Hell and the Lake of Fire’ were the same. They are not. Neither is each meant to receive the same class of sinners. Many folks mindfully merge them into one godforsaken penal colony where human sinners are ...read more
