Sermon

        Text: 1 John 4:13-21

        Theme: A Commencement Address for Christians

Today’s lessons remind us that our ascended Lord has given his followers much to do while we wait for his glorious return. As disciples of Jesus, we live to praise him (psalm), to be his witnesses (first lesson and gospel lesson), and to love one another (second lesson).

THE FIRST LESSON: Acts 1:15-26

After the Lord’s resurrection, the apostles prayed for God’s guidance and then picked Matthias to replace Judas as a witness of the resurrection.

THE PSALM OF THE DAY: Psalm 8

The majesty of God is displayed in the Father’s creation of the universe and in the universal rule of his Son.

THE SECOND LESSON: 1 John 4:13-21

God’s love for us enables and empowers us to love him and live our lives for him. We show our love for God by showing love to our brother.

THE GOSPEL LESSON: John 17:11b-19

Anticipating a time when he will no longer be with them, Jesus asks his heavenly Father to protect his disciples and to prepare them to go into the world.
