The Collect:
Blessed Lord, who caused all holy scriptures to be written for our learning: help us so to hear them, to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest them that, through patience and the comfort of your holy word, we may embrace and for ever hold fast the hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our Saviour Jesus Christ, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God now and for ever.
Readings: Isaiah 45:22-end
God’s word is more than a promise or an oath – it is the creative and saving power of the universe, the strength of those who believe.
Romans 15: 1-6
The written words of scripture can provide guidance in our dealings with others and be a source of hope.
Gradual Hymn: 370
Gospel Luke 4:16-24
The Nazareth congregation appreciated the spoken words of Jesus but could not believe that somebody who had grown up among them could fulfil the written words of scripture.
