Pastor David Balla

Sermon: Reading the Signs of the Times

David

In this powerful Lutheran sermon, Pastor Balla proclaims Christ’s urgent call to “read the signs of the times.” From Luke 12:49–56, Jesus rebukes the crowds for their spiritual blindness. They could read the weather, but they missed the greatest sign before them — the Son of God standing in their midst.


This sermon explores three key truths:


  1. The Blindness That Cannot See – How we, like the crowds, often prepare for earthly storms but not for the coming Day of the Lord.
  2. The Savior Who Gives Sight – Christ bears the fire of God’s judgment at the cross to open our eyes by His grace.
  3. The Life of Watchfulness – Living in daily repentance, confidence in Christ’s promises, and readiness for His return.


Whether you are seeking Lutheran preaching, Biblical sermons, confessional teaching, or Gospel-centered messages, this sermon brings the truth of Christ crucified and risen for you.
