Sermon 2

And now he in rests from his labor. What he has done was that he has kept his eyes on Jesus. He was one of the pioneers in our faith journey. I had begun our communal faith journey ahead of us. He must have had challenges and difficulties. He must have experienced cumbersome and burden. But he never quitted. He has kept his eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Now we believe that he is with Jesus Christ. He is in a better place where there is no pain, no grief and no sorrow. That is our belief. How can it be possible? How do we know it? What is the proof? According to today’s scripture, we, human beings, are not able to redeem ourselves. It is because of our sins that we have committed in our lives. Christ made a sacrifice on the cross for our sins, and that was it! He obeyed God’s will and plan for salvation. He rose again from the grave and sat down right beside God. It was a perfect sacrifice by a perfect person to perfect some very imperfect people.
