We are deep into the Pentecost season, and it’s easy to lose focus on the work Jesus continues to do through His Word in the church. We often turn God’s gifts into gods and love the gift rather than the Giver of the gift. They are but temporary gifts, and we should rather enjoy receiving the true gifts of life: Christ’s Word and Sacraments. For the blessings of forgiveness, life, and salvation that they give cause us to live forever when “life, Goods, fame, child, and wife” are taken from us. “Though these all be gone, Our vict’ry has been won; The Kingdom ours remaineth” (LSB 656:4).

Our message remains essential today. There is no more effective way for the devil to lead pious people astray than to turn their focus to their own efforts. So, we take our stand on the work of Christ alone. Jesus’ atoning death plus Jesus’ victorious resurrection plus Jesus’ gift of the Holy Spirit equals life and salvation, equals freedom from fear and…
