Sunday's sermon turned into a blog post with audio and video:

The Pharisees and Herodians tried to trap Jesus with this question: “Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?” (Luke 20:22). If Jesus said they should pay the tax, it looked like He supported Rome, but if he said they should not pay the tax, He would be considered a traitor to Rome and arrested. He responded, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what Is God's” (Luke 23:25). Just as the coins with Caesar’s image belong to Caesar, people with God’s image belong to God.

We are not superior people telling inferior people to get their lives together. We are beggars who have found the Bread of Life in Christ, telling other beggars where they can find Him too.
In this sermon from Luke 24:47–49, I explain what it means to proclaim the gospel to all nations as witnesses empowered by the Holy Spirit.

How can our sins be forgiven?
The natural answer is, “I must do something to make up for what I have done.” But Jesus did not send His disciples to preach penance, religious works, or self-punishment.
He sent them to preach repentance for the forgiveness of sins in His name.
Forgiveness is found in Christ, not in trying to pay for sin ourselves.
