Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
"An Unchanging Faith for Changing Lives" describes the message of God for us in the turmoil of the 21st Century. This faith is taught at St. John's Lutheran Church of Taylor, Michigan, and other congregations of the Lutheran church-Missouri Synod. Rev. Dr. Richard Zeile, Pastor at St. John's, applies the Word of God to our everyday experiences. God's LAW always accuses, but God's GOSPEL shows where grace can be found, through Jesus Christ who died for our sin, but rose that we may have eternal life.
Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
Deuteronomy 32 "I Kill and Make Alive"
There are those who blame God for killing; and this shows that they do not know who God is, for He is the Creator who gives to each his life and should He withdraw His grace they fall into death. Therefore humility, not prideful ignorance, is the proper attitude toward God. Dr. Zeile's message for Passion Sunday (also known as Palm Sunday) lays out the Divine plan involving death and life implemented in Holy Week. A reading from the Passion account of Luke 23 and the Lenten hymn "Christ the Life of all the Living, Christ the Death of Death our Foe" are included in this program.
