This week Pastor Laitinen and Pastor Zarling discussed Trinity Sunday with Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary professor Sam Degner. Prof. Degner teaches evangelism and New Testament. We discussed Jesus’ Great Commission in Matthew 28:16-20. We spoke in depth about the meaning of Jesus’ words, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
We also studied the powerful last words St. Paul gave to the Corinthians in the Apostolic blessing: “May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.”
Let the one who is thirsty come. Let the one who wants the water of life take it as a gift. Stay thirsty, my friends. Quench that thirst in the Water of Life.
