WORSHIP FOR 6/14/26
The Lord Our God Saves Us in Love and Cares for Us by the Ministry of His Gospel. The holy Triune God “shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners,” ungodly and at enmity with Him, “Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). The incarnate Son has justified us by His blood and reconciled us to His God and Father (Romans 5:9-10). Whereas sin and death originated with Adam, forgiveness and life abound for all his children “through the one man Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:12-17). As the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, so does He bring us to Himself by the Gospel and make of us “a kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Exodus 19:6) by our Baptism into Christ. For “all that the LORD has spoken” (Exodus 19:8), Christ has done for us. As He has gone up to God by His cross and resurrection, so does He bring us to the Father in Himself (Exodus 19:3-4). Nor does He leave us “harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd” (Matthew 9:36), but He sends men with authority “to heal every disease and every affliction” by His forgiveness of sins (Matthew 10:1). In their proclamation, “the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 10:7).
NEXT WEEK'S MESSAGE
Next Sunday’s sermon will be “Not Guilty? Not Guilty!” based on Romans 5:6-19.
NEW BIBLE CLASS ON GENESIS
Some people think the “days” of Creation in Genesis actually represent immense periods of time, millions or even billions of years. Is that really possible? What does the Hebrew text say? Join in after worship in the Fellowship Hall for our new study in Adult Bible Class on Genesis–Book of Beginnings as we begin looking at each of the six days of Creation.
NO MIDWEEK MATINS IN JUNE OR JULY
Because of various family commitments Pastor Vogts has over the summer we are taking a summer break with no Midweek Matins or Men’s & Women’s Bible Studies during June and July, and the normal Wednesday schedule resuming in August.
