This sermon centers on the healing of the woman with a chronic issue of blood in Luke 8:43–48, using her story to illustrate the gospel's core truth: salvation is not found in human effort, words, or rituals, but in faith alone in Jesus Christ. The woman's condition—diseased, destitute, and desperate—serves as a powerful metaphor for the sinner's spiritual state: isolated by sin, bankrupt in resources, and hopeless apart from divine intervention. Her act of touching Christ's garment, though silent and unorthodox, reveals the essence of saving faith—trusting in Christ's person and power, not in one's own works or prayers. The sermon emphasizes that true healing comes instantly and completely through faith in Christ, who offers immediate peace, restoration, and adoption into God's family. It calls all who are spiritually broken to abandon self-reliance, repent, and reach out in faith to Jesus, the only remedy for the soul's deepest ailment.
Este sermón presenta una profunda reflexión teológica sobre la obra redentora de Jesucristo, centrada en dos aspectos fundamentales: Su propiciación y Su compra de la salvación. Destaca que el sacrificio de Cristo en la cruz no fue un mero ejemplo moral o un gesto simbólico, sino un acto divino que satisfizo plenamente la justa ira de Dios apartándola mediante su perfecta obediencia y su ofrenda sin pecado, aplacando así la justicia de Dios y restaurando la relación rota por el pecado humano. El sermón subraya que la obra de Cristo no se limita al perdón, sino que incluye la compra de la reconciliación -el restablecimiento de una relación viva e íntima con Dios- y la herencia eterna de la vida eterna, asegurada por su sangre y garantizada para todos los que crean a lo largo de todas las épocas. Basándose en pasajes clave como Romanos 3, Colosenses 1 y Hebreos 9, afirma la suficiencia intemporal de la expiación de Cristo, demostrando que los santos del Antiguo Testamento se salvaron por la fe en el Mesías venidero, al igual que los creyentes de hoy se salvan por la fe en su obra consumada, lo que convierte a Cristo en el único mediador entre Dios y la humanidad a lo largo de la historia. El mensaje llama tanto a los creyentes como a los no creyentes a una profunda reverencia por Cristo, instando a una vida de continua meditación, adoración y proclamación de su obra salvadora.
This sermon presents a profound theological reflection on the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, centering on two pivotal aspects: His propitiation and His purchase of salvation. It emphasizes that Christ's sacrifice on the cross was not merely a moral example or a symbolic gesture, but a divine act that fully satisfied God's righteous wrath by turning it away through His perfect obedience and sinless offering, thereby appeasing God's justice and restoring the relationship broken by human sin. The sermon underscores that Christ's work is not limited to forgiveness but includes the purchase of reconciliation—reestablishing a living, intimate relationship with God—and the eternal inheritance of everlasting life, secured by His blood and guaranteed for all who believe across every age. Drawing from key passages such as Romans 3, Colossians 1, and Hebrews 9, it affirms the timeless sufficiency of Christ's atonement, demonstrating that Old Testament saints were saved by faith in the coming Messiah, just as believers today are saved by faith in His finished work, making Christ the one and only mediator between God and humanity throughout history. The message calls both believers and unbelievers to a deep reverence for Christ, urging a life of continual meditation, worship, and proclamation of His saving work.
