"Shall we misuse them?" Sermon on Mt 17:1-9. In this age we can't stay is the Lord's house forever.

"This is a blessed place to be. This is where the Triune God Himself invites us to be, so that He can be among us and bless us with His divine gifts. This is where you are welcomed, accepted, cared for. This is where others understand you, you share the same faith. This is where you receive God’s unique gifts. Gifts which we can’t receive anywhere else. Here He Himself forgives you all your sins. Here He gives you abundance of His Holy Spirit until it overflows. Here the Lord Jesus invites you to partake in His Holy Meal: “Come and receive the medicine of eternal life!” Here we experience God’s love, and grace and appreciation, all of that – unconditional. But in this age, in this life we can’t stay in the Lord’s presence forever. Whatever good it may feel. We must take our crosses and follow Him into this not so welcoming world. To deny ourselves, to be living sacrifices, to serve others, to witness."
