5 Sermons Tagged "Blessed"

We might be tempted to argue with people who claim Christians are hypocritical, judgmental, self-righteous, arrogant, unforgiving, and disrespectful, claiming those associations are not fair. Instead we should remember that if God's grace were truly fair, everyone would end up in Hell. So we thank God for His amazing grace, and we spread that good news to everyone.

In this sermon we learn what God has promised to those who put their trust in mankind instead of him, and we see that God promises to bless those who trust in him, even if they are sometimes insulted, excluded, hated, and rejected in this world because of their faith.

We are connected to Christ Jesus like branches are connected to the vine. Through that connection God blesses us and rules for our good. We not only praise him and hold him in reverent awe, but we even reflect his glory in our daily lives.

You come as a beggar, but God has made you rich. You hunger for grace, and God feeds you. You weep in this world, and God gives you joy. The world hates you, but God embraces you.

See the blessedness of your condition, confess your sins so your burdens will disappear, and live your life in your forgiveness.
