And they will not leave one\n             stone upon another in you, because you did not\n             know the time of your visitation.''  (ESV)\n\n        This week the Church prayed:\n        O God, You declare Your almighty power above all in\n        showing mercy and pity.  Mercifully grant us such a\n        measure of Your grace that we may obtain Your gracious\n        promises and be made partakers of Your heavenly\n        treasures.\n\n\n        As Jesus entered into Jerusalem the Sunday before He was\n   crucified, amid the waving of palm branches and the shouts of the\n   crowd, He wept and grieved over the coming destruction of the\n   city.  Those who called for Jesus' death did not recognize that\n   He is the Son of God, the Messiah who God sent to redeem each\n   person from sin, death, and the power of the devil.  By not\n   recognizing Jesus, the religious leaders and their followers\n   sealed their own fate.\n\n        Forty years after Jesus rose from the dead, the city of\n   Jerusalem was destroyed by the armies of Rome.  Jesus' words, His\n   prophecy, were shown to be true.\n        For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will\n        set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem\n        you in on every side and tear you down to the ground,\n        you and your children within you. And they will not\n        leave one stone upon another in you, because you did\n        not know the time of your visitation.''\n\n\n        There is a point when God withdraws His offer of mercy,\n   pity, and grace.  He never forces Himself on anyone.  He shows us\n   the true peace which comes from the forgiveness of our sins for\n   the sake of His Son, but will allow people to harden their hearts\n   against Him.\n\n        Today you hear His voice, the good news that Christ Jesus\n   died and rose again to defeat death and the grave.\n\n        May our Lord grant that we know the time of His visitation.\n   Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 12, 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-5147","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\/5147","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=5147"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5147\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5148,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5147\/revisions\/5148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
