Lent One: 3-9-25

March 31, 2025

The sermon focuses on Jesus' first words from the cross: 'Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.' The pastor explores the profound significance of Jesus praying for forgiveness, not just for those present at the crucifixion, but for all humanity. Through personal stories and biblical exposition, he emphasizes that sin is a universal human condition requiring divine forgiveness, and that God's grace, while costly, is freely offered through Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
