17 After that, we who are still alive will be gathered up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And we will be with the Lord forever. 18 So encourage each other with these words. 1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 (NCV)37 YEARS AGO TODAY, AUGUST 3, 1975 FAITH BAPTIST CHURCH WAS BORN. THANK THE LORD FOR 37 YEARS OF HIS GRACE AND MERCY. I PRAY GOD'S RICHEST BLESSINGS UPON OUR CHURCH FAMILY AS WE CONTINUE THIS JOURNEY TOGETHER. GOD BLESS YOU AND THANKS FOR BEING A PART OF FAITH.
Sunday night (6 PM)
COMMUNION This Sunday night we will be gathering our church family together to meet at the Lord's Table. Communion is such an important time in the life of the believer. Before we worship the Lord through the communion I will be sharing a few thoughts on "Communion Adjustment". One of the reasons communion is so vital to the Christian is that it helps us adjust our course spiritually. Sometimes in our Christian journey we allow our inside to get out of synch with our outside. We appear to be something on the outside while we are really something quite different on the inside. Jesus once referred to the Pharisees as graves. The outside of the grave was a smooth green manicured lawn, but inside it was full of death and corruption. We can drift into the trap of artificiality without even knowing it. Communion can be a vital tool that God uses in our life. As we examine ourselves and our relationship with God we become acutely aware of the inconsistency between what we profess on the outside and what we really are on the inside. Hopefully and prayerfully this leads us to repentance and prayer. Are you ready for an adjustment?
