  • SEBTS Chapel - J. Henry Coffer, Jr. November 22, 1961

    Description:
    The service begins with the reading of Habakkuk 2:20 (00:00-00:24) and prayer (00:25-02:20). No introduction was given for the speaker, Dr. J. Henry Coffer, Jr., but was Instructor of Religious Education at SEBTS. His sermon topic is “the prodigal father,” based on Luke 15:11-32 (02:21-05:03). He begins with definitions from the dictionary on terms related to “prodigal,” understanding the son was prodigal according to his wastefulness, while the father was prodigal according to every sense of the word (05:04-10:01). He then transitions into identifying with the older brother’s outlook as the modern view towards life and the world (10:02-13:05). If the father was upsetting things, Jesus was doing more, and His words reveal the very “prodigal” love of God the Father in saving the Gentiles as well as the Jews (13:06-22:21). He ends with prayer (22:22-22:39).

  • SEBTS Chapel - J. Henry Coffer, Jr. March 1, 1961

    Description:
    The service begins with the reading of Psalm 67:1-3 (00:00-00:24) and prayer (00:25-01:59). The sermon text, Romans 5:6-11, is read aloud (02:00-03:22). No introduction was given for J. Henry Coffer, Jr., but he was Instructor of Religious Education at SEBTS. His sermon focuses on the meaning of the atonement, understood in the symbol of redemption—the blood of Christ. The hymnal phrase “washed in the blood” could cause much confusion about what is being communicated without an understanding of the blood of Christ (03:23-07:49). Coffer talks about the inner hostility in man and an oftentimes hidden or unspoken intent to release that anger onto its objects. He then points out that all of this hatred toward others is really pointed at God (07:50-15:42). The blood of Christ is the acceptance of our hostility against God, atoned for and completely spent, and in this way, God has redeemed us from our sins and has reconciled man to Himself (15:43-22:20). He ends his time in prayer (22:21-22:45).
