Audio Messages

Due to some technical difficulties the first few minutes of the sermon's audio is not available, therefore this audio recording starts about 5 minutes into the sermon. We apologize for the inconvenience. We all want to have more joy in our lives! But joy is different from happiness because it often comes at the end of suffering or struggles. In this message on the parable of the Lost sheep in Luke 15:3 - 7, there is a struggle going on. The "sinners" are drawing near to hear Jesus and the religious in the crowd are grumbling. Jesus want to lead both groups of sinners to more joy. So He tells them a parable about the nature of God's love for us all as sinners.

We need to trust in the Lord forever because he is our rock and our refuge. God took away our sin and gave us his righteousness. God is our refuge from sin and death. We receive His encouragement through this and need to live in His promise of eternal life.

Jesus is the word of God and the promise of God. Jesus has ultimate true authority because he is the only son of God. The question today is- does he have true authority over you?
