The Moral Man\u2019s Problem is Sin<\/a> (Rm 2.12<\/a>)<\/h5>\n

Our message today continues to look at God\u2019s impartiality in judgement as Paul explains that regardless of racial or religious status, sinners will be judged. No one gets an edge by morality or pedigree. All stand before God who will judge men according to their deeds, delivering sinners over to destruction. <\/p>\n

Worldly Wiseman<\/a><\/h5>\n

We continue our look at Pilgrim\u2019s Progress, discussing the advice of Mr. Worldly Wiseman and the consequences of listening to the same. We also consider how to discern modern parallels to Worldly Wiseman in our secular society (much different from Bunyan\u2019s 17th century English society). <\/p>\n

The Head of Our Church<\/a><\/h5>\n

In our afternoon service, we begin an intermittent series on the philosophy of our local church and the emphasis we want to promote as we build up a self-supporting church for the Lord\u2019s glory. The first of the series speaks to the notion that the head of our church is Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n

~~~ <\/p>\n

We had a good day in a number of ways. One young couple finally joined the church (they have been faithfully attending for some time). Another visiting family continues regular attendance, so we are grateful for the opportunity that represents. And we had a visitor who may present another opportunity of ministry. All of that was good. I wasn’t happy with the third message and am contemplating tearing it apart and doing it entirely over sometime in the near future. Be that as it may, we thank the Lord for these opportunities to serve him. <\/p>\n
