thank you, Pastor Bryan. Stay blessed ❤️, you and your family and your congregation. God be with you all. Thank you for sharing the Truth!
It's wonderful to hear you proclaiming God's truth again. I know you said you were excited about the possibility of being a student and learning for the rest of your life, but I'm glad God is still using you to teach me.
May God continue to bless you, your family, and your church. Thank you for the beautiful sermon on suffering. My cousin Marcy just died after a battle with cancer. "The Lord's solution is to die" yes, He joins himself to us, to be with us in suffering and in death. So true, so beautiful!
Dear Pastor. You sound better. I pray that the Lord continues to heal you. Please keep at it.
Thank you. Godspeed and God's peace be with you all
@Pastor Bryan wolfmueller's your NOT Pastor Wolfmueller
@@lc-mschristian5717 it’s funny how little the scammer understands about who he’s trying to impersonate here. But I guess that pastor should be flattered that he has an imitator.
@@williammetz7500 true. This impostor doesn't understand Lutheran theology at all, sad. He should listen to Pastor Wolfmueller instead of pretending to be him. God's peace.
So good to see pastor in pulpit. How is his health? Prayers! Miss the Sunday drive and his smiling face.
Such a powerful sermon Pastor. Praise be to you Lord Jesus Christ. May we look to Christ and that we carry our cross to be like Him in our lives.
In Christ
Another listen to this inspiring and amazing message. Thank you God be praised.
Thank you Pastor Wolfmueller.
Thank you

9:33-10:10: I like this one. Thank you.
Thank you Pastor!
Pastor, I have just recently come across your videos and appreciate them so much. I can’t remember where to send in requests for topics, so I will just throw it here. I have a young adult son who was brought up, baptized, and confirmed in the Lutheran faith but now no longer takes communion. The mist of his reasoning is being unsure about why we take it literally when Christ says, “This is my body...” but we understand it as metaphorical when He says, “I am the vine and you are the branches.” I don”t know how to best explain / defend / support our view on the Lord’s Supper and you have such an amazing way of explains things with complete support and still being understandable and approachable. Can you help. God’s continued blessings on your ministry!
Tell him this is what the early church taught according to the early fathers.
The following isn’t exactly an orthodox approach, though one early father used this logic once:
Tell him we are the body of Christ and we are what we eat. :) I mean, at some point the elements become literally part of our bodies and therefore part of Christ’s body, since we are members.
“For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.” - Ephesians 5:29-32
Christ and the Church are one body.
If he can’t accept that the bread and wine become the body and blood before reception, maybe he can at least admit they become so after reception.
That’s not the full truth, but it’s one step closer to the truth. The truth is, the bread and wine are the body and blood when the whole church receives them as such through the church’s invocation and prayer of thanks.
It remains bread. It remains wine. Don’t try and tell him it’s no longer those things. They are holy bread and holy wine and have a dual reality as the body and blood of Christ.
