Sermon delivered on the Tenth Sunday After Pentecost, 2025, in Richmond, Texas, by Rev. Tobias Bayer. Epistle: 1 Cor. 12, 2-11. Gospel: St. Luke 18, 9-14.

sermon by the Rev. Christopher McAbee

The word of God is a refining fire. Jesus is the great divide in human history. He invites our undivided attention and devotion. Today in worship we are surrounded by a great “cloud of witnesses.” In the word and in holy communion we are invited yet again to look to Jesus, “the pioneer and perfecter […]

Luke 12:49-56   Jesus said, "I came to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and what stress I am under until it is completed! Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division! From now on five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three; they will be divided: father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law." He also said to the crowds, "When you see a cloud rising in the west, you immediately say, `It is going to rain'; and so it happens. And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, `There will be scorching heat'; and it happens. You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?"

Ezekiel 36:16-38; Psalm 74:1-10; Philippians 2:1-11; Matthew 6:5-13

 9 And to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, he spoke also this parable:Dixit autem et ad quosdam qui in se confidebant tamquam justi, et aspernabantur ceteros, parabolam istam : 10 Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.Duo homines ascenderunt in templum ut orarent : unus pharisaeus et alter publicanus. 11 The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican.Pharisaeus stans, haec apud se orabat : Deus, gratias ago tibi, quia non sum sicut ceteri hominum : raptores, injusti, adulteri, velut etiam hic publicanus : 12 I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess.jejuno bis in sabbato, decimas do omnium quae possideo. 13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven; but struck his breast, saying: O God, be merciful to me a sinner.Et publicanus a longe stans, nolebat nec oculos ad caelum levare : sed percutiebat pectus suum, dicens : Deus propitius esto mihi peccatori. 14 I say to you, this man went down into his house justified rather than the other: because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled: and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted.Dico vobis, descendit hic justificatus in domum suam ab illo : quia omnis qui se exaltat, humiliabitur, et qui se humiliat, exaltabitur.

Hebrews 12:1-13 Rev. Peter Schwanda August 17, 2025

Suffering is evil. There is no other way to see it. But God is good and because He is good, He takes the evil around us and redeems it to His glory and our good.If you like what you hear, we hope you'll join us in person if you're in the area.

August 17, 2025Today's Reading: Luke 12:49-53 (54-56)Daily Lectionary: 2 Samuel 7:1-17; 1 Corinthians 9:24-10:22“[Jesus said,] ‘Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division.'” (Luke 12:51)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.So much for that familiar Christmas hymn. So much for “peace on earth and mercy mild” (LSB 380:1). For Jesus says that He did not come to bring peace, but division! And not the kind you did in math classes when you were young. This is the kind where people are turned against each other, where families argue, or worse, when friends stop being friends.And we are stunned! How can this be? Isn't Jesus supposed to bring people together? Isn't it evil when people act stuck up, hateful, and unrepentant against each other? Absolutely, this is evil. This is all sinful, the result of self-righteous hearts that do not show mercy or love.  But Jesus is not saying He wants division! He is definitely not saying that He causes others to sin. As God's only Son, Jesus is sinless. God wants everyone to repent of their sins, hear the Gospel of Christ's merciful death for their sins and resurrection victory, and believe it. God wants all to be saved. Therefore, Jesus also does not want people to be divided.Yet that happens in this world where not all believe. Some hear the Gospel and reject it. The devil is hard at work. Others are led by the devil and their sinful nature to be merciless to others. So when Jesus says He came to bring division on earth and not peace, we must hear how He means it. He means that His Word of His forgiveness, mercy, and love is real for you. He means that His Word is truth in a deceived world. Jesus means that His baptizing applies precious promises to you that cannot be broken. Jesus means that His Body and Blood are put in your mouth to strengthen you in saving faith. And, He also means that the devil is against all of this, and riles up opposition. But what can the devil do? What harm can those who are against us do for whatever reason? If God is for us, and He is for us in Jesus, then no one can be against us. God in His wisdom even takes our hurts, emotional wounds, and hostilities against us and makes them work for our good. He even makes death and Satan work for our good. So in a divided world, we find all peace, hope, strength, and life in our Lord Jesus and His pure Word.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Merciful Lord, cleanse and defend Your Church by the sacrifice of Christ. United with Him in Holy Baptism, give us grace to receive with thanksgiving the fruits of His redeeming work and daily follow in His way; through the same Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

Year C, Proper 15, Tenth Sunday After Pentecost

In this week's appointed gospel lesson, Jesus says, "Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!" (Luke 12:51). Generally, Jesus has been seen as a great uniter, a unifying force among disparate groups with differing identities of every sort. It's what makes this declaration particularly challenging, at least for Jonath and Seth. So, they ask what Jesus might want to separate us from, what is the historical context of Jesus' statement, and how does it apply to us today? What do we need to be divided from to follow Jesus more closely? We're glad you're with us! We hope your summer ends well. Keep cool, keep hydrated, keep listening!

Join Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Rolf Jacobson as they dive deep into the lectionary readings for the 10th Sunday after Pentecost (August 17, 2025). In this episode, they explore the challenging theme of division that Jesus brings, not as his goal, but as an inevitable result of following his way. Our hosts unpack Luke 12:49-56, where Jesus speaks of bringing fire rather than peace, and discuss how this passage connects to the realities of following Christ today. Whether you're a preacher preparing for Sunday or someone seeking a deeper understanding of these challenging texts, this conversation offers thoughtful biblical interpretation and practical wisdom for navigating the complexities of faith in community.

Amen.Come, let us worship God our King.Come, let us worship Christ, our King and our God.Come, let us worship Christ among us, our King and our God.Holy God,holy and mighty,holy immortal one,have mercy upon us. (3x)Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. From Psalm 51Open my lips, O Lord, *and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.Create in me a clean heart, O God, *and renew a right spirit within me.Cast me not away from your presence *and take not your holy Spirit from me.Give me the joy of your saving help again *and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. A PsalmPsalm 28Ad te, DomineO Lord, I call to you; my Rock, do not be deaf to my cry; lest, if you do not hear me, I become like those who go down to the Pit.Hear the voice of my prayer when I cry out to you, when I lift up my hands to your holy of holies.Do not snatch me away with the wicked or with the evildoers, who speak peaceably with their neighbors, while strife is in their hearts.Repay them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their actions.According to the work of their hands repay them, and give them their just deserts.They have no understanding of the Lord's doings, nor of the works of his hands; therefore he will break them down and not build them up.Blessed is the Lord! for he has heard the voice of my prayer.The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I have been helped;Therefore my heart dances for joy, and in my song will I praise him.The Lord is the strength of his people, a safe refuge for his anointed.Save your people and bless your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them for ever. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen. The Readings1 Corinthians 4:9-16English Standard VersionFor I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death, because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men. We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute. To the present hour we hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and buffeted and homeless, and we labor, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; when slandered, we entreat. We have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, the refuse of all things.I do not write these things to make you ashamed, but to admonish you as my beloved children. For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel. I urge you, then, be imitators of me.The Word of the LordThanks Be to God Matthew 17:14-23English Standard VersionAnd when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and, kneeling before him, said, “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he has seizures and he suffers terribly. For often he falls into the fire, and often into the water. And I brought him to your disciples, and they could not heal him.” And Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.” And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was healed instantly. Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed.The Word of the LordThanks Be to GodThe Apostles' CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth;I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. ExamenIn God's presence, think through the day ahead:the work you will do, the people you will encounter, the dangers or uncertainties you face, the possibilities for joy and acts of kindness, any particular resolutions you need to renew, consider what might draw you from the love of God and neighbor, the opportunities you will have to know and serve God and to grow in virtue, remember those closest to you and all for whom you have agreed to pray, ask God's blessings, guidance, and strength in all that lies before you. Gather up these thoughts and reflections in the wordsOur Savior taught us to say: The Lord's PrayerOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. The Collects of the DayO God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: Increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we lose not the things eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day: Preserve us with your mighty power, that we may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by adversity; and in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Closing PrayersA Prayer of St. ChrysostomAlmighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen. Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,now and always and forever and ever. Amen.Lord, have mercy! (3x)God, be gracious to us and bless us and shine Your countenance upon us and have mercy on us.This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!The Father+ is my hope; the Son, my refuge; the Holy Spirit, my protection: All-Holy Trinity, glory to You!Amen!
