Matthew 17:14-27. Unbelievable mercy to unbelievable sinners: He is the Temple on whom our faith is placed. - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Dr. Kirk Clayton, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Mascoutah, IL joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 17:14-27.Do we trust Jesus at his word or not? What is the content of our faith? Jesus shows us that He has full authority, even over demons, and by faith the father comes to Jesus to seek help. This man knew that Jesus was able to extend mercy and He did. The disciples started to depend on themselves which led to them being a “faithless generation.” We can often depend on ourselves or humankind instead of the Lord at His Word. Jesus brings them back to Himself by showing us that by His death and resurrection we can trust that He will give mercy to us now. “Lord God, help us to trust Jesus in His Word. As You had mercy on the man’s son, have mercy on us. Help us to see the freedom and adoption as sons that we have from the greater Temple that we may trust and rest in You. In Christ, Amen”
