The Jesus No One Likes, or How the Flesh of Christ is Still a Stumbling Block

images communion Update: Click on the little Mp3 symbol on the page to hear the sermon. There is more to the audio version than the text version.

For your consideration: a sermon by Pastor William Cwirla from John Chapter 6.

This one is on some of Jesus’ most scandalous and troubling words.  The little nugget concerning the Greek grammar of this passage in the beginning of the sermon was the icing on the cake for me in regard to the Lutheran view of the Lord’s Supper.

What a brilliant exposition on the place of the Lord’s Supper in the life of the church and of the believer.  I urge even those of you not holding to a sacramental view of the LS to listen to the whole thing. You won’t be sad.
