Then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.A river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and there it divided and became four rivers. The name of the first is the Pishon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. And the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there. The name of the second river is the Gihon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Cush. And the name of the third river is the Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”(English Standard Version)

A Sermon for the Seventh Sunday after Trinity Hosea 14:1-9 & Romans 6:19-23 by William Klock I've been reading a great book by an Oxford classicist named Teresa Morgan. It's a study of the Greek and Latin words for faith and what they meant in the culture of the Greeks and Romans, the Jews, and in the early Church. It's a fascinating read and as we were getting ready to go camping last Sunday afternoon I tossed it in my bag. But then I stopped for a second, I panned across a wall of bookshelves, and my eyes settled on a copy of Ernest Cline's Ready Player One, which is—as far as I'm concerned—the ultimate novel written for Gen-X nerds who were born in the early Seventies and came of age in the Eighties. It's a sci-fi novel built around references to things like the Atari 2600, Dungeons & Dragons, Zork, and Pac-Man. I read it about ten years ago, but I decided to read it again this week with apologies to Dr. Morgan and her study of pistis and fides. And I enjoyed it the second time as much as the first. In the back of my mind, however, I was mulling over our Epistle from Romans 6 and how St. Paul writes about being slaves. That meant that one particular part of the book kind of jumped out at me. In the story there's an evil mega-corporation out to conquer and corrupt the virtual reality paradise where everyone in the future spends all their time. And this evil corporation has its fingers in everything, which means it's easy to end up owing it money. And when that happens, you're arrested and transported to headquarters where you become an indentured servant, slaving away at some menial and demeaning job until you die—because there's no way out. Between late fees, interest payments, charges for room and board and healthcare, your debt only grows, it never gets any smaller. And Cline does a pretty good job of making it sound utterly miserable—at least to me—because it reminded me of my days as a Mac tech when I had to do phone support, which is an utterly miserable job. But this book makes it ever more miserable: these indentured servants—slaves—did the phone support. The description hits close to home in a lot of ways and it makes you—or at least me—want to shout out, “Let my people go!” But like I said, I also had Romans 6 percolating away in the back of my brain too and I was asking myself: Would I rather be a slave like the Israelites in Egypt, breaking my back to make bricks without straw under the hot Mediterranean sun or having my brain turn to mush doing non-stop tech support for Innovative Online Industries? I don't know. What I do know is that being delivered from either one of those slaveries would completely change my outlook on life, the universe, and everything. And that's just how it was for Israel. The beginning of the Book of Exodus paints a bleak and desperate picture of Israel's turn of fortune—or, I should say, “providence” because, we learn as the story unfolds, the Lord was in control of the narrative all along. Jacob and his family went down to Egypt as honoured guests of Pharaoh, but four hundred years later a new Pharaoh turned them into slaves, making bricks for his grand building projects. Mixing mud and straw, filling moulds, baking them in the sun, then carrying those heavy loads of bricks to wherever they were needed. All the time baking themselves in that hot sun, day in and day out. Day in and day out with no rest. Eating out of fleshpots—which sounds pretty awful all by itself. Put yourself in that place. (Or doing phone support as a slave if that seems worse to you.) And then imagine how you would feel after the Lord came and delivered you from that slavery. And not just a simple jailbreak. Consider how the Lord came first to Moses and his people and reminded them that he was their God, the one who had made promises to their fathers and who had been sovereign over all of this all along. And the Lord then goes, through Moses, to Pharaoh. Again, this isn't a secret jailbreak in the dead of night. The Lord announced to the king, before his whole court, that Israel belonged to him, that Israel was his beloved son, and demanded Israel's release. And then the showdown began. The Lord sent ten plagues that exposed Pharaoh and his gods for the powerless frauds they really were. Defeated, Pharaoh finally let them go, but that wasn't the end of it. In one last ditch effort to recover his slaves and his dignity, Pharaoh went after the Israelites with his army and cornered them at the Red Sea. Israel had escaped the frying pan only to land in the fire. And then the Lord acted again. He bared his mighty arm and parted the waters of the sea so that his people could pass through on dry land. And when the Egyptian army tried to follow, the Lord drowned them all and left “mighty” Pharaoh, the greatest king on earth, powerless and pounding sand on the opposite shore. Again, it wasn't just a simple jailbreak under cover of darkness: You know, the Lord rescuing his people but with as little effort as possible. To the contrary, he showed his faithfulness and his love towards his people, but he also showed his glory. He brought the prison walls tumbling down in broad daylight for everyone to see. He humbled the greatest king and the most powerful gods in the known world. And he wasn't done. That was just the first act. From the Red Sea he led Isreal into the wilderness and fed her miraculously on manna and quail and water he caused to flow from a rock. He met her at Mount Sinai and there he made a formal covenant with her. “I will be your God and you will be my people.” And he gave them his law, a new way of life that would separate them from all the other peoples of the earth. They wouldn't just be the Lord's people. The law would allow them to be the people who lived with the Lord in their midst. A holy people, set apart. And so they built a tabernacle as a place of meeting with him and the Lord's glory descended like a cloud to fill it. And for a third act, the Lord led them into the land of Canaan and conquered it for them. The Lord gave them cities they hadn't built; wells they hadn't dug; and fields and vineyards they hadn't planted. All to show them his faithfulness, his love, his grace, and most of all his glory. The Lord made them the rescued-from-slavery people and every year they celebrated that identity and the great show of glory and faithfulness the Lord had made to make them that people. Each year they gathered as families and ate the Passover and as they did that they remembered who they were and what the Lord had done for them. And they were grateful. They loved the Lord with all their heart and soul and mind and strength. They loved their neighbours the way the Lord had loved them. They were righteous—meaning that they love and obeyed his law. His heart was their heart. They worshipped him and him alone. And, forget horses and chariots! They trusted in the Lord who had shown the power of his mighty arm when he delivered them from slavery. Or so you might expect. But then you read the history of Israel and it's mostly the opposite. They neglected the Passover and, not surprisingly, they forgot what the Lord had done for them. They forgot his faithfulness. They forgot his love. They forgot his grace. They forgot his glory. They neglected his covenant and his law. They worshipped other gods—the very gods defeated when the Lord conquered Canaan for them. And instead of trusting in the Lord and his mighty arm, they trusted in horses and chariots and politics and intrigue and money. And that's where our Old Testament lessons comes into this. The Lord sent the Prophet Hosea to the king and to the people of Israel with a message. At this point the kingdom had split: Judah in the south and Israel in the north. Judah was bad, but Israel was so bad they made Judah look like a goody-two-shoes. And Hosea's ministry began with an acted-out prophecy. The Lord told him to take a prostitute as his wife. Hosea obeyed. He married Gomer, a prostitute, probably from one of the pagan temples. And he loved her and cared for her and he had children with her. But repeatedly she left Hosea and returned to her life of prostitution. And each time, his heart broken, Hosea would go out and find her and bring her back to his home and love her. Through the prophet the Lord was saying to his people: I am Hosea. You're the prostitute. I loved you. I delivered you from Egypt. I gave you a land that was not your own and I caused you to prosper in it. I repeatedly defeated your enemies so that you could live at peace. But over and over you've prostituted yourselves to foreign gods and foreign kings who have done nothing for you other than to lead you away from me, your true love. Through the prophet the Lord stressed his faithfulness over against Israel's unfaithfulness. And so the Lord called to his people: Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for you have stumbled because of your iniquity. Take with you words and return to the Lord; say to him, “Take away all iniquity; accept what is good, and we will pay with bulls the vows of our lips. Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses; and we will say no more, ‘Our God,' to the work of our hands. In you the orphan finds mercy.” And the Lord promised: If they would do this. If they would repent and return to him: I will heal their apostasy; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them. I will be like the dew to Israel; he shall blossom like the lily; he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon; his shoots shall spread out; his beauty shall be like the olive, and his fragrance like Lebanon. They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow; they shall flourish like the grain; they shall blossom like the vine; their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon. But Israel had to leave off her idolatry. It was not Baal or Asherah who delivered them from Egypt and caused them to prosper in the land. It was the Lord. O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like an evergreen cypress; from me comes your fruit. Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them. One way or another the Lord would heal their apostasy. One way or another the people he had chosen as his own would reveal his glory before the watching nations. Either they would be faithful to him and he would prosper them beyond measure or he would punish their unfaithfulness and let the nations destroy them. And if you've read the books of Kings and Chronicles and the Prophets you know that the latter is what happened. Israel continued in her idolatry and was destroyed by the Assyrians, the tribes scattered and lost forever. About a hundred years later the same thing happened to Judah, but it was Babylon that defeated the people and destroyed Jerusalem and the temple. But in Judah's case, even though the people were exiled from the land, they kept their identity and were eventually allowed to return. They rebuilt Jerusalem and the temple. And, so far as the worship of pagan gods went, they'd learned their lesson. Never again was that kind of raw idolatry a problem for the people of Judah. And yet we've seen in some of our recent Gospel lessons that the people still failed to be faithful to the Lord. Last Sunday we heard Jesus condemn the Pharisees—the most righteous, the most covenantally faithful people around. Even they weren't as faithful and as righteous as they thought. Enter Jesus. God himself, incarnate, became the faithful Israelite. He perfectly submitted himself to the God of Israel, to his will, to his heart, to his law. His righteousness—which, if you remember from last Sunday, means his faithfulness to God's covenant, was perfect. And his fellow Jews killed him for it. They got the Romans to crucify him on their behalf. And that means that in Jesus, the son of God wasn't just incarnate as an Israelite, wasn't just the perfect Israelite in his covenant faithfulness, he even died the very death that the Israelites would face when the judgement he announced came to them a generation later. He very literally died the death that their unfaithfulness deserved. And just like Israel in Egypt, the fate of the son of God in Israel was all guided by providence. The Lord knew what he was doing. And in that, Jesus became a sacrifice for the sins of his people. If they trusted in him as the Messiah he claimed to be, they found forgiveness of their sins. But that's not all. The Lord also knew what he was doing in allowing sin and evil to concentrate themselves all in one place so that they could rise up and do their worst to Jesus. It was Pharaoh and the gods of Egypt all over again. If you know the story, you recognise that this how the Lord works. In the same way he allowed Israel to become enslaved to the most powerful king in the world who had the most powerful gods in the world, so the Lord allowed Jesus to go to the cross where the most powerful forces in creation would kill him. And he did it so that he could, once again, bare his mighty arm and raise Jesus back to life. In doing that he not only overturned the false verdict against him in his sham trial, but more importantly, he defeated sin and death the same way he defeated Pharaoh and his gods. Jesus was leading his people in an exodus—the exodus—the exodus that the old one, the one that shaped them as a people, the one they remembered every year at Passover, was but a foretaste. The old exodus happened so that the Lord could set a pattern and teach his people his loving and faithful character—so that he could prepare them for a future rescue, not just from a pagan king and his fake gods, but so that he could rescue them from sin and death. Not to lead them into a land of milk and honey, but to lead them into his new creation—into a world finally set to rights, a world where they could live forever in his presence. And as he did in that first exodus, so in the second, the Lord displayed his glory not just to his own people, but to the watching world. And so Jesus didn't just make a new way of covenant faithfulness for his own people, he made it for everyone who would see the glory of the God of Israel at the cross and at the empty tomb. For anyone who will trust that Jesus is Lord, who will trust that in his death and resurrection he has defeated sin and death, and who will pass through the waters of baptism to life with God—a life infused by God's own Spirit—on the other side. A life of righteousness, of covenant faithfulness that exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees. Brothers and Sisters, that glory displayed at the cross and the empty tomb is what has drawn each of us. It's faith in that glory and in the promise offered in our baptism that has taken us through those waters. And yet, like Israel of old, that vision of God's glory and of his loving faithfulness somehow fades from our vision. That vision of glory that once caused us, like the Israelites singing the Lord's praise on the shore of the Red Sea, to sing his praises ourselves, to joyfully proclaim the good news to the world, that motivated us covenant faithfulness—to a life of holiness—somehow it fades or maybe we just take our eyes off of it in the midst of our various trials and tribulations. And we lose our passion for the Lord, for holiness, for proclaiming his gospel. St. Paul saw it happening in the Roman church. The old divisions between Jew and Gentile were creeping back in. They were no longer pursuing holiness and gospel life the way they once had. And so he reminds them in Romans 6: “But now you have been set free from sin and enslaved to God, you have fruit for holiness. Its destination is the life of the age to come. The wages of sin, you see, are death; but God's free gift is the life of the age to come, in the Messiah, Jesus our Lord.” Brothers and Sisters, we need to be reminded of the glorious thing that God has done for us in Jesus. We were slaves to sin and death. We had no hope. But then we heard the story—the good news—about the mighty and glorious God of Israel, how he gave his son to die to redeem his people from their sins, how he raised him from death, and how his new creation has begun in this new people. How he's poured out his Spirit on them and made them a temple and a foretaste of the life and the world to come. A free gift. God's amazing gracious grace. And we believed and with joy we jumped into the waters of baptism. We left Pharaoh—we left sin and death—pounding sand over another escapee—and we met Jesus on the other side. And he filled us with his Spirit. And we set out with him to the promised land, to the New Jerusalem, to the life of the age to come. But somewhere along the way the joy and enthusiasm faded. We began to trade holiness for sin. We began to lag behind Jesus along the way, and began to look longingly at our old gods. We became apathetic about the gospel, about the good news that had once so captivated us. Brothers and Sisters, come to the Lord's Table this morning and be renewed. This is our Passover meal in which we recall the mighty saving deeds of our faithful, loving, gracious and glorious God. This is the meal that reminds us we were once hopelessly enslaved to sin and death, but that the God of all creation loves us so much that he gave his own and only son to die on our behalf. Remember that in him our sins have been forgiven. And remember that this meal is also God's future, pulled into the present. It's a reminder that death no longer has a hold on us, because in rising from the grave, Jesus defeated death as thoroughly as he defeated sin. The bread and wine here at the Table are a reminder of what God has done for us in Jesus and they are a reminder of the hope—the new world and the new life—that lies before us because we have trusted him. Let's pray: Lord of all power and might, the author and giver of all good things: Graft in our hearts the love of your Name; increase in us true religion; nourish us with all goodness; and bring forth in us the fruit of good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Seventh Sunday after Pentecost Old Testament Genesis 18:20-32 The Lord said to Abraham, "How great is the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah and how very grave their sin! I must go down and see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry that has come to me; and if not, I will know." So the men turned from there, and went toward Sodom, while Abraham remained standing before the Lord. Then Abraham came near and said, "Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked? Suppose there are fifty righteous within the city; will you then sweep away the place and not forgive it for the fifty righteous who are in it? Far be it from you to do such a thing, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from you! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is just?" And the Lord said, "If I find at Sodom fifty righteous in the city, I will forgive the whole place for their sake." Abraham answered, "Let me take it upon myself to speak to the Lord, I who am but dust and ashes. Suppose five of the fifty righteous are lacking? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?" And he said, "I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there." Again he spoke to him, "Suppose forty are found there." He answered, "For the sake of forty I will not do it." Then he said, "Oh do not let the Lord be angry if I speak. Suppose thirty are found there." He answered, "I will not do it, if I find thirty there." He said, "Let me take it upon myself to speak to the Lord. Suppose twenty are found there." He answered, "For the sake of twenty I will not destroy it." Then he said, "Oh do not let the Lord be angry if I speak just once more. Suppose ten are found there." He answered, "For the sake of ten I will not destroy it." The Psalm Psalm 138 Confitebor tibi 1 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, with my whole heart; * before the gods I will sing your praise. 2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and praise your Name, * because of your love and faithfulness; 3 For you have glorified your Name * and your word above all things. 4 When I called, you answered me; * you increased my strength within me. 5 All the kings of the earth will praise you, O Lord, * when they have heard the words of your mouth. 6 They will sing of the ways of the Lord, * that great is the glory of the Lord. 7 Though the Lord be high, he cares for the lowly; * he perceives the haughty from afar. 8 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you keep me safe; * you stretch forth your hand against the fury of my enemies; your right hand shall save me. 9 The Lord will make good his purpose for me; * O Lord, your love endures for ever; do not abandon the works of your hands. The Epistle Colossians 2:6-15, (16-19) As you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving. See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority. In him also you were circumcised with a spiritual circumcision, by putting off the body of the flesh in the circumcision of Christ; when you were buried with him in baptism, you were also raised with him through faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead. And when you were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive together with him, when he forgave us all our trespasses, erasing the record that stood against us with its legal demands. He set this aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and made a public example of them, triumphing over them in it. [Therefore do not let anyone condemn you in matters of food and drink or of observing festivals, new moons, or sabbaths. These are only a shadow of what is to come, but the substance belongs to Christ. Do not let anyone disqualify you, insisting on self-abasement and worship of angels, dwelling on visions, puffed up without cause by a human way of thinking, and not holding fast to the head, from whom the whole body, nourished and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows with a growth that is from God.] The Gospel Luke 11:1-13 Jesus was praying in a certain place, and after he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples." He said to them, "When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone indebted to us. And do not bring us to the time of trial." And he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say to him, `Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; for a friend of mine has arrived, and I have nothing to set before him.' And he answers from within, `Do not bother me; the door has already been locked, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.' I tell you, even though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, at least because of his persistence he will get up and give him whatever he needs. "So I say to you, Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for a fish, will give a snake instead of a fish? Or if the child asks for an egg, will give a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
The Seventh Sunday after Pentecost. Is prayer supposed to feel this hard? Fr. Peter Walsh explores why many of us struggle to pray—and what Jesus really teaches us through the Lord's Prayer. With help from golf pro wisdom and St. Paul, he offers a surprising invitation: prayer is not something you start, it's something you join.
