"The light of Jesus forgiving your sins is the best cure" Oculi 2021 08.03.2021

7. March 2020 Oculi Luke 11:14-28 Jesus casts out a demon that caused the man to be mute. A demon? I thought those were mythology, a relic of a bygone era? Isn’t that just how those uneducated and unenlightened people wrote off things that they couldn’t explain, like today’s extraterrestrials? Ah, but we still talk about angels. We have images, figurines, and prayers that refer to them. Angels are...

“Don’t shoot the messenger” - Lent Midweek 2 2021 04.03.2021

3. March 2021 Lent Midweek 2 - Zechariah 2 Chron 24:17-22; Matt 23:29-36 Too often, though, people do shoot the messenger. They react with anger and malice towards the bearer of bad news. That was the case with Zechariah. He was merely the messenger, bringing God’s word to His people. If people didn’t like what Zechariah had to say, they should have been mad with God, not with Zechariah. But somet...

"Anything that is not Jesus is not God, and therefore cannot give you true life" Reminiscere 2021 01.03.2021

The new god, science, attempts to downplay or even eliminate both the pains and pleasures of this life. Its seductive promises cause you to hold out for some “pie in the sky” future that will free you from all pain and sorrow. Instead of seeing life's trials as something to struggle with and overcome, and in the process become stronger, the life-denying god encourages you to hate this life and loo...

"Samson is an odd choice for a martyr" - Lent Midweek 1 - February 24, 2021 25.02.2021

Samson is a reminder to us of the faults and flaws shared by all the Lord’s servants. No one is perfect and righteous and holy on their own, and it does us no good to compare Samson with Abraham or Moses or David. They are all equally sinful. And they all equally depend on the grace of God.
