He is here to forgive you every day

Christ the King Lutheran Church Saturday 8/29 5:30 pm. Sunday 8/30 9:30 am. Dear Friend, you and I and all people have a big problem when it comes to our relationship with God. It is a problem that Saint Matthew illustrates beautifully in our Gospel (Matthew 16:21-30). One minute we gladly confess Jesus Christ as “the Christ, the Son of the living God.” And the next minute we deny the necessity of Jesus cross and resurrection and His return for judgment. We, by nature, “are not setting our mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.” We want the glory of God on our own terms. But God will never share His glory, He gives it! Jesus is in the world in His Word and Supper. He is here to forgive you every day and to give you strength to repent and to “deny (your) self and take up (your) cross and follow me.” Come. Hear His Word. Confess your sin and Savior and so be saved.
