Jason Stuart Percy • Refuge TLH • Sermon • • 5 views • 1:10:22
Jesus commands all people everywhere to repent and to believe Him. We lay our trust in Him as the offering for our sins, as the One who died, was buried, and is alive again forever. God gives the gift of repentance that we might change our minds and turn from sin to the Living God. We are able to be free from traditions which teach us to value the tradition itself over the welfare of others. We understand that while the Kingdom of God began very small, it grows. We also understand that there are few who will be saved. Many will not turn aside to walk the narrow way which leads to life. Jesus laments over those who continue in rebellion to Him.

We humans are all dead in our trespasses and sins. We have no life in us. It is the effectual call of Jesus, the giver and sustainer of life, that revives and enables us to trust Him. He cares not about the way of our traditions, especially those we use to put ourselves above others and to neglect our acts of service and charity (love) to our neighbor. We are those who excuse ourselves from obedience for myriads of reasons, all of which we excuse in ourselves and condemn in others. What hypocrites we are! True life, eternal life, is in the Father and in the Son, Jesus. He gives life to whomever He wills. Let us be those who diligently search the sscriptures, that we might know God as He reveals Himself through the prophets and apostles. But... let us not stop with having knowledge... let us go on to commune with Jesus, let us respond to Him, let us come to Him... and find life.

By Pastor Glenn Pease Professor Gordon Rupp, the British historian, was asked how the church could survive the decades of persecution and communist propaganda in Russia. His answer was, "It's largely due to grandparents." The communists made the big mistake of thinking that because the church was only…

“Empty Religion” Mark 7.1-23 Jaroslav Pelikan wrote that "Tradition is the living faith of the dead, traditionalism is the dead faith of the living." David Garland writes, "One may compare tradition to the shell of the blue crab. To live and grow it must shed its shell from time to time. Until it creates…

When tradition takes Over Notes The similarity between the traditions of the Pharisees, nullifying God’s Word under the pretense of zeal for God’s glory, and those of the Jesuits and other advocates of the Roman Catholic church, is painfully striking. The following passage from Peter’s commentary on…

Each of us builds upon the foundations laid for us by generations past. Not many of us can be Solomon, building the first temple upon the mount, laying the first stones upon the very bones of the earth. But even Solomon built upon the scriptures, the stories of the faith of the children of Israel. Even…

What does Paul mean by traditions in 1 Cor 11.2? Now I praise you because you remember me in everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.

When Tradition takes Over Matt. 15:1-11 EBC 10/26/08 Many times in these passages Jesus made mention of Tradition. Now, for the most part there is nothing wrong with tradition (we have family traditions- Thanksgiving, Christmas, 4th of July etc). There are good traditions – 2 Thess. 2:15. But, the problem…

Intro: · I chose to address this topic when I saw the celebration of Nazareno at Quiapo. I was really bothered to think of the catholic faith on how and what they really know about Jesus of Nazareth. Christians believe on Jesus of Nazareth but very far from what they have in their heart and how they…

Easter sets the "tone" for all the Sundays of the year. First day of the week" = (V1) "First day not bound by religion They had a burning desire…

Luke 2:1-20 I know that there are some in the Christian community who argue that Christians should not celebrate Christmas by decorating a tree and exchanging gifts. They say that there is no record that the early church ever celebrated the holiday, and there is no proof that Jesus was really born on…

The seventh chapter of Mark’s gospel begins with the Pharisees and scribes coming to Jesus, complaining that some of his disciples were eating without washing their hands. While such behavior may offend twenty-first century sensibilities as well, it was really a much larger problem for the Pharisees…

When Traditions Supercede the Word of God Mark 7:7-13 Introduction: Jesus here deals with a common problem among the Pharisees of their elevated traditions over the Word of God. We should understand that this is still an all too common problem even today. I. CULTISM EXISTS EVERYWHERE, SHOWING ITSELF…

I'm thinking of a small-town church in upstate New York. They'd had a rector in that church for over thirty-five years. He was loved by the church and the community. After he retired, he was replaced by a young priest. It was his first church; he had a great desire to do well. He had been at the church…

I am continually fascinated by the depth of our Catholic faith and traditions. Some traditions come and go. They fade after a few years. Others last, seemingly forever. For instance, the events of our First Reading happened about 2500 years ago. Did you catch the similarity of what occurred then and…
