"Is It Lawful?" Is the Wrong Question - Trinity 17 2022

Preaching and Teaching from St. John Ev. Lutheran Church (Sherman Center), Random Lake, Wisconsin · Oct 9, 2022 · 16m

Without Jesus’ Word and gifts being given, your faith in God becomes starved, and thus your love for one another will also fail. This is why “Is it lawful?” is the wrong question. The Sabbath was not made for you to serve God but for Him to serve you! The Sabbath was given for you, that you would be renewed and refreshed in faith and love. This refreshment comes in the proclamation of Christ crucified for you for the forgiveness of sins and that forgiveness delivered to you with water, Word, bread, and wine.
