Gospel Sermon on:
John 5 : 1 - 18
1 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.
3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had.
5 Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, &quot;Do you want to be made well?&quot;
7 The sick man answered Him, &quot;Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.&quot;
8 Jesus said to him, &quot;Rise, take up your bed and walk.&quot;
9 And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, &quot;It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.&quot;
11 He answered them, &quot;He who made me well said to me, &quot;Take up your bed and walk.&quot;&#039;
12 Then they asked him, &quot;Who is the Man who said to you, &quot;Take up your bed and walk&#039;?&quot;
13 But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, &quot;See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.&quot;
15 The man departed and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath.
17 But Jesus answered them, &quot;My Father has been working until now, and I have been working.&quot;
18 Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.

Gospel Sermon on:
John 4 : 1 - 42

1 Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John
2 (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples),
3 He left Judea and departed again to Galilee.
4 But He needed to go through Samaria.
5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Now Jacob&#039;s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, &quot;Give Me a drink.&quot;
8 For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, &quot;How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?&quot; For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said to her, &quot;If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, &quot;Give Me a drink,&#039; you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.&quot;
11 The woman said to Him, &quot;Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water?
12 Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?&quot;
13 Jesus answered and said to her, &quot;Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again,
14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.&quot;
15 The woman said to Him, &quot;Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.&quot;
16 Jesus said to her, &quot;Go, call your husband, and come here.&quot;
17 The woman answered and said, &quot;I have no husband.&quot; Jesus said to her, &quot;You have well said, &quot;I have no husband,&#039;
18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.&quot;
19 The woman said to Him, &quot;Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.&quot;
21 Jesus said to her, &quot;Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.&quot;
25 The woman said to Him, &quot;I know that Messiah is coming&quot; (who is called Christ). &quot;When He comes, He will tell us all things.&quot;
26 Jesus said to her, &quot;I who speak to you am He.&quot;
27 And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, &quot;What do You seek?&quot; or, &quot;Why are You talking with her?&quot;
28 The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men,
29 &quot;Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?&quot;
30 Then they went out of the city and came to Him.
31 In the meantime His disciples urged Him, saying, &quot;Rabbi, eat.&quot;
32 But He said to them, &quot;I have food to eat of which you do not know.&quot;
33 Therefore the disciples said to one another, &quot;Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?&quot;
34 Jesus said to them, &quot;My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.
35 Do you not say, &quot;There are still four months and then comes the harvest&#039;? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!
36 And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
37 For in this the saying is true: &quot;One sows and another reaps.&#039;
38 I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labors.&quot;
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, &quot;He told me all that I ever did.&quot;
40 So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
41 And many more believed because of His own word.
42 Then they said to the woman, &quot;Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.&quot;
Glory be to God forever." xmlUrl="&lt;a href=&quot;https://youtu.be/8HEPy0PMvVQ&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/sites/default/files/video_thumbnails/8HEPy0PMvVQ.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;img-responsive&quot; /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do you have trouble focusing and keeping your attention in prayer?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today’s Gospel passage reminded us –&lt;strong&gt; “Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And it seems like a simple command but so many of us fail to pray attentively. We fail to ask, seek, and knock because we are so distracted.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Well, I learned some important wisdom about prayer this week that I wanted to share with you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Matthew the Poor, a Coptic monk who lived in the Egyptian Desert, in his book called “Guidelines for Prayer” explained this really important and essential aspect of prayer.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Before I can tell you that important advice… I need to remind us about something Jesus said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In Matthew 6:6, Jesus said, &lt;strong&gt;“But when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut the door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place.” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;" xmlUrl="&lt;a href=&quot;https://youtu.be/177Orf80l5I&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/sites/default/files/video_thumbnails/177Orf80l5I.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;img-responsive&quot; /&gt;

Gospel Sermon on:
Luke 5 : 27 - 39
27 After these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, &quot;Follow Me.&quot;
28 So he left all, rose up, and followed Him.
29 Then Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them.
30 And their scribes and the Pharisees complained against His disciples, saying, &quot;Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?&quot;
31 Jesus answered and said to them, &quot;Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.
32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.&quot;
33 Then they said to Him, &quot;Why do the disciples of John fast often and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?&quot;
34 And He said to them, &quot;Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them?
35 But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.&quot;
36 Then He spoke a parable to them: &quot;No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old.
37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.
38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.
39 And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, &quot;The old is better.&quot;&#039;

12	Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
13	And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles:
14	Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;
15	Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot;
16	Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.
17	And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases,
18	as well as those who were tormented with unclean spirits. And they were healed.
19	And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out from Him and healed them all.
20	Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said: &quot;Blessed are you poor, For yours is the kingdom of God.
21	Blessed are you who hunger now, For you shall be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, For you shall laugh.
22	Blessed are you when men hate you, And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your name as evil, For the Son of Man&#039;s sake.
23	Rejoice in that day and leap for joy! For indeed your reward is great in heaven, For in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.

John 11 : 1 - 45
03/08/2025
1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, &quot;Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.&quot;
4 When Jesus heard that, He said, &quot;This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.&quot;
5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6 So, when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.
7 Then after this He said to the disciples, &quot;Let us go to Judea again.&quot;
8 The disciples said to Him, &quot;Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?&quot;
9 Jesus answered, &quot;Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.&quot;
11 These things He said, and after that He said to them, &quot;Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.&quot;
12 Then His disciples said, &quot;Lord, if he sleeps he will get well.&quot;
13 However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep.
14 Then Jesus said to them plainly, &quot;Lazarus is dead.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him.&quot;
16 Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, &quot;Let us also go, that we may die with Him.&quot;
17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
19 And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Now Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.
21 Now Martha said to Jesus, &quot;Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
22 But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You.&quot;
23 Jesus said to her, &quot;Your brother will rise again.&quot;
24 Martha said to Him, &quot;I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.&quot;
25 Jesus said to her, &quot;I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.
26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?&quot;
27 She said to Him, &quot;Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.&quot;
28 And when she had said these things, she went her way and secretly called Mary her sister, saying, &quot;The Teacher has come and is calling for you.&quot;
29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him.
30 Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met Him.
31 Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, &quot;She is going to the tomb to weep there.&quot;
32 Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, &quot;Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.&quot;
33 Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.
34 And He said, &quot;Where have you laid him?&quot; They said to Him, &quot;Lord, come and see.&quot;
35 Jesus wept.
36 Then the Jews said, &quot;See how He loved him!&quot;
37 And some of them said, &quot;Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?&quot;
38 Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39 Jesus said, &quot;Take away the stone.&quot; Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, &quot;Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.&quot;
40 Jesus said to her, &quot;Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?&quot;
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, &quot;Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.&quot;
43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, &quot;Lazarus, come forth!&quot;
44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, &quot;Loose him, and let him go.&quot;
45 Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.
