Devotions From Steadfast Lutherans

Here the Lord shows us His two words He speaks to mankind: His Law and His  Gospel. The Law is God’s eternal will for mankind, and it shows us our sin. The Gospel  is God’s gracious promise to save us through His Son. Here God reveals His will for  man, and He shows us through simple arithmetic what He desires for us. 

Jesus is Immanuel, God with us!

Lord Jesus Christ, bless the children of your Church.

The promises of Baptism are for children!

Read Colossians 2 to understand the link between circumcision and baptism.

Before Abraham was, I AM.

John's baptism was a "prepare the way" baptism.

Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!

Put on the new self, forgiving one another.

What does it mean to take up your cross and follow Jesus?

Daily we repent of our sins, daily we believe in Jesus Christ crucified for our forgiveness, and daily we walk in newness of life, presenting our members to God as instruments for righteousness, until that day when the Old Adam  finally perishes, and we are perfectly and eternally renewed.

Baptism kills sin.

The benefits of  Baptism abide forever.

You have entered the kingdom of God through baptism.

I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

"All nations" includes all ages.

God the Holy Spirit delivers the gift of the Holy Spirit, faith, and the forgiveness of  sins in Holy Baptism. Being “born again” is being a baptized child of God.

Hold to Titus 3, a trustworthy text!

For all nations. For you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to Himself!

Our Lord Jesus will never deceive you. Trust His promises!
