(ESV)\n\n This week, as we studied the Rich Man and Lazarus, we asked\n three questions. First, what is the Church? The Church is the\n people who trust in God's grace and mercy who are gathered around\n God's Word and the sacraments. How are we saved from sin and\n death? We are redeemed by God's grace, because Jesus Christ bore\n the guilt of our sins upon the cross, dying in our place, and\n rising again to give us eternal life. Finally, what is the role\n of good works in our salvation? Good works show a living faith.\n\n The rich man is arguing with Abraham. First, he demanded\n Abraham send Lazarus from heaven to Hades to give him drink of\n water. When that failed, he demanded that Lazarus be sent to\n warn his brothers about the fate of those who trust in wealth and\n power. Now he contradicts Abraham who directed the brothers to\n truly listen to Moses and the prophets.\n\n And [the rich man] said, ``No, father Abraham, but if\n someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent.''\n He said to him, ``If they do not hear Moses and the\n Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone\n should rise from the dead.''\n\n\n Jesus has risen from the dead. That truth has not convinced\n anyone to join the Church, to hear of God's love. If you desire\n the comfort and hope of God's grace, love, and mercy, you will\n want to study God's Word. Please join us at Trinity Lutheran\n Church each Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. to learn of the Father's\n love and the gift of the forgiveness of sins for the sake of\n Christ Jesus.\n\n May our Lord grant us the wisdom to hear Moses and the\n prophets. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"June 27, 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-3450","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\/3450","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=3450"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3450\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3451,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3450\/revisions\/3451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
