In the sermon titled "The Glory of Our Mediator," Eric Lutter focuses on the mediatorial role of Jesus Christ as highlighted in John 17:21-24. The key arguments underscore that Christ, as our mediator, bestows His glory and blessings upon His people, securing their unity with Himself and the Father. He emphasizes that this glory is linked to the spiritual gifts and eternal life given to believers through the gospel, illustrating this point with references to Romans 8 and Ephesians 3. The practical significance of this theology is profound, reinforcing the assurance of salvation and the need for believers to live out their faith in unity and love, reflecting the grace that they have received in Christ.
“Christ secured everything for you, his bride, everything for you. And yet he gives you all this inheritance, all his blessings that he's obtained for us by his own redemption work.”
“This is the work of the Spirit that is poured out, that attends the preacher on this word, and he takes the things of Christ being declared in this word and makes them real to you.”
“Our unity that Christ is praying for here is that all the children of God, all his true Israel have one common faith.”
“Love never fades. Love never fails and never disappears and never goes away.”
