Resurrection Lutheran ChurchNovember 21, 2010 Welcome to Worship!

Amid scoffing and slander from those who sarcastically call him Messiah and king, Jesus reveals that to be Messiah and king is to give one's life for others. Here he uses his power to welcome a despised sinner to paradise but puts his own death into God's hands. Luke 23: 33-43
