Sermon clips from St. Catharines churches

50s
“``What what Jesus is saying is the death that you will die will not be pointless. It won't be random. It won't just be tragic, but it will be a witness. It will be worship and it's going to glorify God. The blood of the martyrs brings glory to the father because I think in a very special way for those who are called to pay the ultimate cost, they mirror and reflect the heart of God in Jesus Christ in the most special of ways.”
40s
“Because to get to that point, you have to become like the Lord in his death. And there's something very beautiful about that. Still tragic and horrible. We don't wish suffering and death on people, but there is something in those moments that glorifies God in the most wonderful of ways. Because what these people are saying is Jesus is worth more than anything else that this world could afford.”
31s
“Jesus doesn't say, follow me and you'll always be safe. He does say, follow me and I'll always be with you, but he doesn't say you'll always be safe. He doesn't say, follow me and you'll stay in control of everything. He says follow me, die to yourself and then you'll live. He doesn't say follow me and everyone will suddenly understand you.”
26s
“And what's the final thing that he says to the church knowing that his death is coming. Knowing that he's not going to be in control of what happens. He doesn't obsess over his legacy. He doesn't say remember me. He doesn't say honor me and trib and and and and and in some way. He's not interested in his legacy.”
