The Right Road?


Will the Road You Are On Get You to My Place?

  - God


Sometimes life seems like an expressway — fast and furious, stressful and confusing. Sometimes life seems like a deserted road — dusty and difficult, with few who really care. Still, at other times, life seems like a mountainous road — twists and turns, hills and valleys.
What road are you on right now?

More importantly, is the road you are on leading you to heaven?

Let us help you at Epiphany Lutheran Church. Come to our Bible Inquirer’s Class entitled, “In the House of the Lord,” so you may see how God has put you on the right road.

Along our travels in this class, you will discover some amazing sights along the way: the valley of darkness that has been overcome by the cross on the hill; the desert of sin that springs with life through Jesus’ forgiveness; the swamp of guilt, the fires of anger and the hills of hate that will all be in your rearview mirror as you travel down the road to the glorious city of God in heaven that awaits all those who believe in and worship Jesus as their Savior.

This class is an excellent way to learn or review the basic teachings of the Bible. Whether you are new to reading the Bible or have studied the Bible for years, you will learn something new and your faith will be increased. Ask any question. Get straight Biblical answers. Participate or just listen.  This class is fun, free, and Biblically informative. You won’t be disappointed.

You get to open your Bible and see Jesus — the only way to heaven (John 14:6). Find direction for your life right now. Find forgiveness in Jesus right now. And find certain hope right now.

Come over to Epiphany for this Bible Inquirer’s Class. It’s worth the drive! It’s not heaven … but you can see heaven from here!

Max Lucado - False Doctrine

I love the way author Max Lucado writes. He is a great storyteller and a fantastic wordsmith. I have a number of Lucado's books on my shelves and receive his daily paragraph devotions. However, as popular as he is, as many books as he has sold, as many lives as he has touched with the Gospel, he still proclaims false doctrine. I still remember being told at the Seminary that you can generally tell a pastor's theology based on the kind of books he has on his shelves. Though our WELS pastors may have a few books by Lucado, Covey or even some fiction by Peretti, they had better have the majority of their books be sound, Lutheran, biblical doctrine. Martin Luther, The People's Bible commentaries, The Book of Concord, People's Bible Teachings, C.F.W. Walther, Francis Pieper, Werner Franzmann, etc. I mention this because of the devotion I received via email from Max Lucado on Friday, June 12 entitled "Saved by Faith." In the devotion he calls communion and bapti

Jesus has prepared a place for you - A funeral sermon for Jim Hermann

John 14:1-4 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.  2  My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.  4  You know the way to the place where I am going.” “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” Did you catch the difference between what I read just now and what I read in the Gospel lesson? The Gospel lesson was from the NIV. The second verse I read was from the King James Version. If you’re older than 50, that’s the version of the Bible that you heard in church and learned in catechism class. But, even if you’re older younger than 50, you know about the mansions. “The mansions of heaven” is a term Christians use pretty often. Preachers say it, poets write it, people

Water into blood and water into wine

Image
Here are some thoughts that didn’t make it into Sunday’s sermon. The Old Testament lesson for the 2nd Sunday after Epiphany is the account of Moses turning the water of the Nile River into blood. The first of the ten plagues God used to get the Israelites out of Egypt. Exodus 7:14-24 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is unyielding; he refuses to let the people go. 15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning as he goes out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake. 16 Then say to him, 'The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you: Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the desert. But until now you have not listened. 17 This is what the LORD says: By this you will know that I am the LORD: With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood. 18 The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink; the Egyptians will not
