Ord. 24: Faith and Deeds (feat. Pr. Vieth)
Manage episode 441447066 series 2288578
This sermon focuses on the theme of active faith and its transformative power in our lives. It begins by discussing how openness—both of the heart and the eyes—enables us to see ourselves and Jesus for who we truly are. The pivotal question from the Gospel, "Who do you say that I am?" leads to Peter's confession, "You are the Christ," which lies at the center of Christian faith. However, faith is not just a declaration; it is meant to be lived out through actions. Jesus teaches that faith involves denying oneself, taking up the cross, and following Him. St. James reinforces this in his epistle, stating that faith without works is dead. The sermon challenges listeners to move beyond lip service and embrace a faith that is active, even when it hurts. Faith requires us to prioritize Christ above all else, which may lead to rejection and suffering. Yet, through this death to self, new life and healing emerge. The sermon concludes by urging listeners to use their gifts for God's kingdom, becoming part of a chain reaction of resurrection that transforms lives.
