Rev. David Boisclair of Faith and Bethesda Lutheran Church in Pine Lawn, MO joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 13:51-58.
Jesus exhorts the disciples that to understand the kingdom is to teach & preach the fullness of the Gospel throughout the Bible. Preaching the fullness of the Gospel brings comfort to a seared conscience and salvation to sinners. Yet, as we see from Jesus’ return to His hometown not everyone was open to His words, many actually were offended. This is a call to the church to be faithful to His Word and if people reject the message we shouldn’t be surprised. They rejected Jesus first. “O Holy Spirit, open our lips so that our mouths may declare your praise. Help us to faithfully preach the fullness of the Gospel that we may be strong in You when offense occurs. Lord have mercy. Amen”
