Greetings from Pastor John
Hi Church
We have reached Chapter 7 in the Sermon on the Mount. We are still working our way through Jesus’ words and will finish up just in time for Advent. This week we will be looking at what it means to work on the log in our own eye while we help restore others through taking the speck of dust out of theirs. Both are true that we work on ourselves while we help to restore others.
See You Sunday,
John

Family Discussion Starters:
Jesus raised Lazarus. John 11-12
•What did Jesus say Lazarus’ death would result in?
•What did Jesus say is true for all who believe in Him?
•Why do we always have hope, even in death?
Because we have been given eternal life in Christ, we glorify God always, even in sickness and in death, trusting in His power to raise us from the dead.
• HEAD: Why must we as Christians affirm the historical nature of the resurrection? (See 1 Corinthians 15, especially verses 12-19.)
• HEART: When facing difficult circumstances, how can we continue to praise God?
• HANDS: With whom can we share this message of hope this week?
Voices from Church History
and endured the retributive judgment
due to us . . . as our substitute, in our
place, with the damning record of our
transgressions nailed by God to his
cross as the tally of crimes for which
he was now dying.”
–J. I. Packer (1926–2020)
