Sermon: Blessed Is the One Who Is Not Offended by Christ

In this Third Sunday of Advent sermon, “Blessed Is the One Who Is Not Offended by Christ,” Pastor David Balla explores Matthew 11:6 and the powerful comfort Jesus gives to John the Baptist and to every believer who wrestles with doubt, suffering, and unmet expectations. This sermon proclaims the heart of Advent: Christ comes in humility, hidden glory, and saving mercy through His Word, Baptism, and the Lord’s Supper. Discover how the Gospel reveals the true blessedness of faith—not in the Christ we imagine, but in the Christ who truly comes to forgive, restore, and strengthen His people.

This message is especially helpful for those searching for solid Lutheran preaching, LCMS sermons, Advent Bible teaching, real presence theology, and Christ-centered proclamation rooted in Scripture and the historic Christian faith. Whether you seek encouragement, biblical clarity, or deeper understanding of Jesus’ words to John, this sermon will lead you to the hope found only in Christ crucified and risen.
