Broadcast<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Lent: Seeing Jesus - Part 5\n Luke 18:34\n 03\/07\/2025\n\n\n 34 But they understood none of these things. This\n saying was hidden from them, and they did not\n grasp what was said. (ESV)\n\n Jesus told the disciples what was to happen during the\n Passover in Jerusalem, how He would accomplish that which had\n been foretold by the prophets in the Old Testament. ``But they\n understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from\n them, and they did not grasp what was said.''\n\n Traditionally, Lent is a time where we give up something\n which is precious, something which is delightful, so to remember\n that Jesus allowed Himself to be tortured, humiliated, and killed\n to redeem us from sin, death, and the power of the devil. Our\n Lenten deprivations are to remind us that Jesus was deprived of\n His glory as the Son of God, and of His life as true man.\n\n Not all who bear the name Christian understand the\n importance of Lent. Like the disciples, the message of the\n suffering and death of Jesus is hidden by the promise of the\n glory of victory.\n\n We preach Christ crucified. Although the disciples were\n blind to the truth Jesus spoke, later they understood that the\n death and resurrection of Jesus is the only true message which\n brings hope to a sin-darkened world. This is the message you\n hear each Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. at Trinity Lutheran Church.\n This is the message you hear each Wednesday during Lent as we\n gather to ponder our Lord's gift of life everlasting. Please\n join us as we seek to know and understand God's love.\n\n May our Lord's invitation to hear of His grace and mercy\n find opened ears and willing hearts. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"March 7, 2025 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2025"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2976"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2976\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2977,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2976\/revisions\/2977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
