9 am Sunday morning Divine Service for Sunday 7/19/15. Traditional liturgy and law gospel sermon. Pastor Houser’s sermon from the gospel of Mark 6:30 - 34. (First reading Jeremiah 22: 1-6.)
Post hoc ergo propter hoc. Logical fallacy as it relates to cause and effect. (e.g. the rooster crows when the sun rises, therefore the rooster cause the sun to rise.)
Human reasoning is faulty and when we apply it to God - it’s not helpful. God told Adam and Eve not to touch the fruit of the tree, otherwise they would die. God’s cause and effect is not post hoc ergo propter hoc. In Jeremiah He says He will raise up a righteous branch to reign as king. The effect is we are the chosen people and are saved. In the gospel, Jesus said a blessing and the crowd of 5000 had food to eat. The means of grace (word and sacraments) bring us comfort and salvation.
