Sermon - September 11, 2016 - Christians Love the Lost Like Christ

The sermon for the seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost, September 11, 2016. The sermon text is based on Luke 15:1-10. The theme this week is: "Christians love the lost like Christ".

Today's Focus:  Christians love the lost like Christ.  The believer loves the lost like Christ.  The righteous live by faith; yet how easy it is for the righteous to slip into self-righteous judgment of other sinners, forgetting the grace that has been shown them.  Today Christ calls us to love the lost like he does and rejoice over every sinner that "once was lost, but now is found."

Sermon given by Pastor Jon Bergemann.
