Sermon 21 Oct 2018

Who will go with Christ? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary: God told Moses, “No man shall see Me and live”, yet men and women of all kinds looked intently into Jesus’ face.  When Jesus became incarnate He sacrificed His awesome, intimidating nature to accomplish our redemption.  James and John thought it had all been accomplished, but there was much more sacrifice to come.  The same is true for us.
