14:52Jesus in his incarnation proclaims a beautiful message of our salvation
Jesus’ birth and its significance for us is proclaimed throughout Scripture by prophets, angels, and apostles
Bethlehem Lutheran Church
It is not because we are smart enough to find Him or holy enough to deserve Him or clever enough to make Him want us. We didn’t decide to come to Christ. He came to us. He graced us. He chose us. He loves us. He forgives us. It Is Jesus who makes Christmas what it is and why it is.
As we prepare our hearts for the celebration of the birth of the Christ Child, it is good to ponder the context of His coming. We know from where Christ will come: Bethlehem. But it's more important to know from where peace will come.

The Third Sunday of Advent is called Gaudete (Rejoice) Sunday. We light the pink candle reminding us of the Joy the world experienced at the birth of Jesus even as we rejoice in anticipation of the coming of the Messiah. While the secular world seeks to mimic Christmas joy in the things of this world, our Heavenly Father gives us the reason to rejoice. The reason for our rejoicing is not to be found in our circumstances but rather, it is to be found in the gracious heart of God.…
The future of the little baby born in Bethlehem shows us our future as well, a future that adds true celebration to Christmas!
Advent is about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Season seeks to prepare us for His coming in glory on the Last Day. We do this by remembering the historical narrative of His 1st Coming as if we were there, and by receiving His coming today in Word and Sacrament as we recall and proclaim His first coming while we await His 2nd Coming on the Last Day. Advent teaches us a lesson about repentance.…

We’re grateful to God on this Thanksgiving Day not just because we’re bound to be thankful in view of all He has done for us, but because the Lord Jesus Himself makes us grateful through the message of His saving life and death. We are grateful for the Good News only through the Good News. Jesus is the Vine, and we are the branches. Unless we abide in Him, we cannot bear fruit including the fruit of gratitude.…

On the last Sunday on the Church calendar, we end on a high note focusing on the center of the Christian calendar and the life of all Christians - Jesus Christ.

There is a source of confidence in the face of any self-doubt or challenge in life. Our text talks about those who are confident as they eagerly wait for the Return of Christ on the Last Day. Our source of ultimate confidence is rooted in the person (who He is) and work (what He has done) of Jesus Christ. We can confidently live our lives in eager expectation in Christ because once and for all, Christ has dealt with the root cause of our lack of confidence – sin.…

Salvation is impossible for us to accomplish ourselves, but nothing is impossible for God

The question posed by the rich young man is one that haunts many of us, one that has to do with our ultimate concern for eternal life. We too, seek Jesus for our answer, for we know He has come to seek and to save the lost. And He has found us! But our sinful human nature still continues to ask the same question, “What must I do to be saved?” Jesus' love for us (Mark 10:21) produces the answer. Out of the richness of His love, Jesus' gracious death and resurrection is what saves us, even if/when we doubt that He could/would love a poor, miserable sinner like us!…

Today’s Gospel comes from a transitional portion of Mark’s narrative. The transition is seen in the secrecy of Jesus’ movements through Galilee (9:30); no longer will Jesus heal the sick there. In fact, only one more miracle is recorded before the triumphal entry: the healing of blind Bartimaeus (10:46-52). Our text includes the second of three Passion predictions in Mark (8:31; 9:30–31; 10:33–34). The Son of God, revealed by miracle and teaching, is the Son of Man who will suffer and die and rise in Jerusalem. Having established Jesus’ identity, Mark is moving toward that very Passion.…

The power of prayer is nothing that has to do with prayer itself, it’s simply that God hears everything, cares about His children, and is able to help in every time of need

The healing of the deaf man describes an event whose sensory possibilities are vividly developed by the prophet Isaiah. The amazed witnesses to Jesus’ miracle echo their response to his words, “Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped” (Isaiah 35:5). One wonders if perhaps they might not have made a connection between what they witnessed and what Isaiah prophesied. Do we?…

The Christians’ life is of necessity a life of battle with the powers of Satan. God prepares us for this battle by: - giving us knowledge of the unseen and ever-present enemy, - equipping us with divine defensive and offensive weapons, and - the strength in Christ to use them. We employ these weapons with prayer and thus extend God’s conquest over the evil one in the lives of His Chosen.…
