“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God”— Ephesians 2:8, 9

Lent Vespers – February 25, 2026

Theme: The Robe of Human Frame
Why did Jesus have to come among us as a human being? Why didn’t He come as an angel or some other kind of being that is stronger and more powerful than us? While angels may be a source of endless fascination to the Christian and to the world, they have no power to save us. In this week’s sermon, we will hear why taking on the “robe of [our] human frame” was not only a good idea but also necessary for our salvation. Angels are wonderful, but they are not Jesus. He came as one of us so that He could redeem us as His own.
