సందేశ సారాంశం

In this sermon, Pastor Ratna Maitra reflects on Luke 19:39-40, where Jesus replies to the Pharisees that if His disciples remain silent, the stones will cry out. She explores how all of creation—including the stars, nature, and inanimate objects like stones—knows and testifies to its Creator, Jesus Christ. Throughout Biblical history, stones and nature have witnessed His divine power, from transforming water into wine in stone jars, to the stone rolling away at Lazarus's tomb, and the rocks in Gethsemane during His fervent prayer. Since inanimate creation testifies to God's glory, human beings created in His image should all the more continually praise, worship, and share the gospel with others.

ముఖ్య సత్యాలు

• Jesus is the Creator and Sovereign Lord of all creation, and all nature belongs to Him.
• If human beings refuse or remain silent to praise God, creation itself, like the stones, will proclaim His glory.
• Throughout Christ's ministry, stones and nature served as silent witnesses to His power, miracles, suffering, and resurrection.
• Believers created in God's image are called to daily glorify Him and share the gospel with those in darkness.
