One of the great and important Feasts of the Christian Faith is the Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord. A great question is, "Why is our Lord's Circumcision such an important event?" All of the Feasts that center around something specific that our Lord accomplished (His conception, birth, crucifixion, Resurrection, etc.) reveal to us something that Christ our God accomplished, so very necessary for our salvation. In other words, God became man and by these wondrous acts, paved the way for us to ascend with Him to Paradise. In His Circumcision, our Lord Jesus Christ fulfills the Law, bringing an end to the Old Covenant. And, later, through His Baptism (so tied to His Circumcision), Christ our God inaugurates the New Covenant for the salvation of mankind. Our Lord is the bridge between the Old and New Covenants; He is the way to Paradise.

January 1, 2026Today's Reading: Luke 2:21Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 61:1-11; Luke 1:57-80“And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.” (Luke 2:21)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.There is something remarkable and yet so subtle in the Christmas story: the Holy Child of Bethlehem is not called Jesus until the eighth day when He is circumcised. Before verse 21, He is referred to as the baby, the child, Christ, and Lord, all glorious titles, but the personal, saving name of Jesus is bestowed upon Him in the covenant of circumcision. This is not merely a name His parents have placed upon Him from their own whims. It is the Name given by the Father in Heaven. “You shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21). Jesus means “YHWH saves.” This is God's covenant Name for His Son. And Jesus lived by it to completion. He is what His Name declares: YHWH saves. From His circumcision to His crucifixion, from that first cut of blood to the New Creation of His resurrection, Jesus fulfills the meaning of His Name for you and me. And now, you who are baptized, you are in His Name. You have been baptized into the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). You are clothed in Christ. His Name is on you even as you now dwell in His Name. When the Lord sees you, He does not remember your sin or your shame, but sees the beloved child now dwelling safely in the shelter of the Name of Jesus, “YHWH Saves!” So call upon His Name. Live under His Name. And rejoice that, as Acts 4:12 says, “there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” The Name was given, the flesh was cut, the covenant fulfilled. Your name was given, the Water and the Word applied, and now the salvation declared in the Holy Name of Jesus is yours.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Lord God, You made Your beloved Son, our Savior, subject to the Law and caused Him to shed His blood on our behalf. Grant us the true circumcision of the Spirit that our hearts may be made pure from all sins; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.Author: Rev. Matthew Synnott, associate pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, Peoria, Illinois.Audio Reflections Speaker: Rev. Richard Heinz, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lowell, IN.Work through the first ten chapters of Matthew and learn more about who Jesus is. As you move through this study, you'll ponder the theological, practical, and historical considerations of the text.

CD 1772 Protected by Peace over Problems (Understand our position is our peace!)We understand that the Bible teaches us about faith hope and love and the greatest of all is love! In fact our God doesn't just love He is love! But this morning you and I we need to understand that faith hope and love brings peace into our lives and it's by peace that we have protection! But we'll talk about that in a minute! Right now know that you have peace with God (Romans 5:1-2) and peace from God because of your relationship with Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior! In the King James version Bible the word peace is listed 429 times in 400 verses! Can you guess what two books in the Bible has peace listed the most? Ironically it's the book of Leviticus with 31 times and the book of Isaiah 29 times. Think about the theme of atonement, substitution, and offering. Leviticus lays out the blueprint of salvation through a blood sacrifice then Isaiah prophesies Jesus Christ is that blood sacrifice!Brother Jason: *Pro 4:23 KJV Keep (GUARD) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.*Phi 4:7 KJV And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep (GUARD) your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.*Note that verse 7 starts with the word and so there is a qualifier in the preceding verses, we will cover that in more detail later.**Text Eph 2:8-22 KJV 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.Note verse 13 by the blood of Christ Jesus I can come now to God as my father because of the blood on the mercy seat! Note verse 14 that Christ Jesus is our peace! *Joh 14:1-7 KJV 1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 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. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye should have Support the show

Happy New Year to our listeners! In this episode, Father Anthony and Sister Catherine recap the events of 2025 and share what they are looking forward to in 2026. They also discuss the Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord, guided by the written Sunday Sermon from Bishop Giles Butler, OFM DD. Throughout the episode, they explore the profound significance of the Circumcision of Christ and the bestowing of His Holy Name. We delve into the "continual sacrifices" Jesus made from infancy and discuss how our own vows— in marriage, religious life, single life and Baptism — allow us to spiritually participate in His hidden Divinity.

December 31, 2025Today's Reading: Luke 12:35-40Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 60:1-22; Luke 1:39-56“Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes…You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” (Luke 12:37, 40)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Awake and ready! These are the words our Lord Jesus uses to describe the mission of His disciples, you and I included. In other words, Christ Jesus has served us with His everlasting love and mercy given on the cross, and He has summoned us to Christian vigilance. How different it is in the world on this day they call “New Year's Eve.” The past is drowned in licentiousness and over-indulgence in libations, the future is ushered in with revelry, and the next day brings the same old-same old. The same sinner led astray by the same sins and the same empty promises. Christian vigilance is different, though; it is a sanctified sobriety! When we hear the word “sober,” it's easy to think it means somber, overly serious, or no fun. But go back to those words of our Lord, “Awake and ready.” To be awake means your eyes are open; open to the truth of the Gospel, open to the truth of what is pleasing in the sight of the Lord, and open to the joy of eternity with Christ. You are not lulled with the sleep of sin or the numbing pleasures of a passing era because your eyes are on the splendid promise of Christ Jesus. To be ready means that your eyes are not only opened, but you are dressed in your baptismal identity as servants of righteousness. Your belt tightened, your lamp of faith lit, and your hands ready to serve Him in the places He has given you responsibility. Jesus is not calling us to earn our salvation in watchfulness, but to live as those who by grace, belong to Jesus the master, and to live as those who know the joy that is coming. For when the Master returns, it is He who will dress Himself in action and serve us. This passage is not just a warning; it is a joyful promise of what is to come. He will serve us with resurrected bodies. He will serve us by gathering us unto His presence forever. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.“Wake, awake, for night is flying,” The watchmen on the heights are crying; “Awake, Jerusalem, arise!” Midnight hears the welcome voices And at the thrilling cry rejoices; “Oh, where are ye, ye virgins wise?” The Bridegroom comes, awake! Your lamps with gladness take! Alleluia! With bridal care Yourselves prepare To meet the Bridegroom, who is near.” (LSB 516:1)Author: Rev. Matthew Synnott, associate pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, Peoria, Illinois.Audio Reflections Speaker: Rev. Richard Heinz, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lowell, IN.Work through the first ten chapters of Matthew and learn more about who Jesus is.

Then let us also be all the more diligent to receive our inheritance. If you would resolve anything in the new year, resolve this. Resolve to live in the name and inheritance which you have been given. Put to death those sins which are foreign to who you are. Christ has already cut off those things by baptism, in the circumcision of your heart. Live honoring the name which you have been given, the name of Jesus Christ. Remind yourself of this promise, and make good use of the sacraments for the strengthening of your heart.

And Jehovah said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the statute of the passover; no son of an alien shall eat of it. And every man's servant that is bought with silver, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat of it. A lodger and a hireling shall not eat of it. In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not bring out of the flesh abroad from the house; and ye shall not break a bone thereof. All the assemblage of Israel shall perform it. And when a sojourner shall sojourn with thee, and performeth the passover to Jehovah, every male of his shall be circumcised, and then let him come near to perform it; and he shall be as a native of the land; and no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. One law shall there be for the native, and for the sojourner that sojourneth in the midst of you. And all the sons of Israel did as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. And it was in this same day that Jehovah led forth the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies. Exodus 12: 43-51 Arcana Coelestia 8028. From this it could be seen how the case is with the order in heaven, and from this in the world; namely that when angels are about to come, a spirit is sent before to prepare the way, and that he excites fear, and gives admonition to receive the angels courteously; and that he interrupts; also that at first he does not understand what the angels speak, but afterward when he has been reduced to a better state he understands; in a word, that he is continually at hand, and prepares the lower mind, and endeavors to avert things unworthy. In regard to this there occurred to me a thought about John the Baptist, that it was according to the order of heaven for him to be sent before and announce the coming of the Lord, and that he should prepare the way that He might be worthily received, according to what is written in Matt. 3:3; Luke 1:17; 3:4; John 1:23. AC 7822. The Contents. The subject treated of in this chapter in the internal sense is the liberation of those who are of the spiritual church, and the damnation of those who are in faith separate from charity. The damnation of these latter and the liberation of the former are represented by the passover, and the states in respect to charity and faith of those who are liberated, by the things to be observed on the days of the passover. 7823. In the supreme sense by the passover is represented the damnation of the unfaithful and the liberation of the faithful by the Lord, when He had been glorified. The quality of the state of the faithful at that time, and also what its quality would be afterward, both in the universal and in every particular, is described in this supreme sense by the statutes of the passover.

Patrick sparks a lively conversation, switching from bagpipes overcoming a call to prayer to the shock of Rob Reiner’s tragic death and reflections on cultural legacy. Listener questions on baptism’s connection to circumcision and biblical translation history stir rapid back-and-forth, while urgent talk on fertility, terrorism, and faith fills the hour. Humor and honesty cut through every topic, unexpected and bold. Audio: Bagpipes during Muslim call to prayer (00:21) https://x.com/joeymannarino/status/1999952721898869236?s=46&t=m_l2itwnFvka2DG8_72nHQ Rob Reiner and Wife Found Stabbed to Death in Brentwood Home (05:08) Andy - Does this Colossians chapter 2:11-12 suggest that the Old Covenant of Circumcision is fulfilled by Baptism? (10:28) Steve – Is it true that the Church's translation of the Bible had errors in it for 1900 years? (21:48) Bob - I want to say that I have worked with Muslims before. They said that they will overpopulate us. (28:03) Lou - About the SSPV breaking off from SSPX. They are not sedevacantists? They have a hands-off approach. I am part of SSPV. (31:13) Tom (email) – Thank you very much for speaking pure truth on this issue which is so ignored and excused (34:12) Casey - Should we dismiss everything in the Gnostic Gospels? (43:46)

What if the routine choices parents make — the vitamin K shot, Hep B, even circumcision — aren't as straightforward as we've been told? Today I'm joined by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, one of the most controversial voices in medicine, who argues that parents are being trained, not taught, and that major risks and ingredients are routinely kept out of sight. For more than 25 years, she has challenged public-health agencies, been labeled part of the “Disinformation Dozen,” and now claims the entire system is beginning to crack. In this episode, we dive into medical transparency, the pain and impact of newborn procedures, and why more parents are questioning long-standing protocols.If this episode resonated with you, make your voice heard.

And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb. – Luke 2:21
Fr. Mike highlights the importance of prayer and fasting, instructing us how to fast and empty ourselves to feel our spiritual need for Christ.
