📖 Hope for Wicked Tenants

Luke 20:9–20

🕊️ Worship with us at Trinity Lutheran Church, School, and Childcare in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.


Who crucified Jesus? It wasn’t just the Jews. It wasn’t just the Romans. The truth of the Gospel is far more profound—and far more personal. We are the wicked tenants in Jesus’ parable. We rejected the Son. Our sin placed Him on the cross.


Yet, the hope of the Gospel remains: God uses what is evil for good. In this Holy Week parable, Jesus foretells not only His own death but the radical grace that comes through it. The Son was killed—but not without purpose. Through His death, life is given. The inheritance we squandered is restored—not by our works, but by His wounds.


👁️‍🗨️ In this sermon, discover how Christ turns rejection into redemption and death into life. Though we are guilty, we are not forsaken. There is hope—for us wicked tenants.


✝️ Key Takeaways:

The parable reveals the universal guilt of mankind in Christ's crucifixion.


God’s justice and mercy are fully revealed in Jesus' death.


The inheritance of eternal life is restored to us through the rejected Son.
