Sermon: "Comfort for the Downcast," Isaiah 40:1-11, Rev. Richard Scott MacLaren
What comfort can we offer to someone who has experienced a devastating loss, such that their troubles are resolved at the very heart and core of the problem? It is only the Reformed faith with its full assertion of the sovereignty of God and his eternal plan that can offer real comfort to those who suffer. It announces the full forgiveness of sins to be revealed with the coming of "Sovereign Lord" who is the Shepherd of his people. Watch as Pastor MacLaren shows how God's word of comfort should be announced by the church in the world today with boldness and vigour. This sermon was preached on June 20, 2010, at First Presbyterian Church in Perkasie, PA (www.firstchurchopc.org).
