You are rescued from more than a bad day through Jesus Christ. Though we are sinners and therefore bound to return to the dust from which we came, and we remain subject to suffering, death, and decay, our Lord has healed us from the eternal consequences of our sin. And while our bodies break down, we know that they will rise again and be free of all sickness and infirmity. For Jesus has the authority to forgive us our sins, and he has done it. This sermon was preached on January 26, 2020 at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Muscatine, Iowa. Matthew 8:1-13
Your Great Faith
Your Great Faith Jesus is amazed that a Centurion has a faith greater than anyone, even in Israel. It is good to slow down when Jesus is amazed. It is good to listen a little more closely. The Centurion hears Jesus speaking and believes! What is even more amazing than this Centurion is that you have been given a great faith also. You receive it by hearing the Good News in Jesus Christ. You trust Jesus. If not, you might soon.
