(ESV)\n\n This week the prayer of the Church is for God to grant us\n faith. We pray for God to work in us fear and love of His name\n because we, in our sin, do not long for His blessings, but turn\n our backs on His great love.\n O Lord, since You never fail to help and govern those\n whom You nurture in Your steadfast fear and love, work\n in us a perpetual fear and love of Your holy name;\n through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns\n with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.\n\n\n Everyone eventually ponders the question, ``What happens\n when we die?'' Each religion, except Christianity, seeks to\n bring the comfort of a great reward, either through hard work or\n human philosophy. Christians, however, teach that our sins are\n forgiven for the sake of the suffering, death, and resurrection\n of Jesus. We are assured of eternal life because faith trusts in\n Him, trusts in God's grace, love, and mercy.\n\n Jesus was at a banquet in the home of a ruler of the\n Pharisees speaking of the kingdom of heaven. ``When one of those\n who reclined at table with him heard these things, he said to\n him, `Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of\n God!'''\n\n This is most certainly true. However, in the parable of the\n Great Banquet which we will review this week, we will consider\n why people do not desire to accept God's gift of salvation, why\n they reject the invitation to eat bread in the kingdom of God.\n\n May our Lord grant us faith to trust in Him, that we may\n know the joy of eternal life. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"June 15, 2026 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4943","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4943","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=4943"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4943\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4944,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4943\/revisions\/4944"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4943"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4943"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4943"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
