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).
