CHRIST, THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE FATHER’S GLORY

August 3, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

CHRIST, THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE FATHER’S GLORY

“Who being the brightness of His [the Father’s] glory.”

Heb. 1:3, A.V. (See verses 1-3).

“The third verse presents Christ as ‘being the brightness of His glory.’ The participle ‘being,’ is an expression of eternal, timeless existence, and has the same sense as ‘was’ in John 1:1. ‘In the beginning WAS the Word.’ The Word is Christ. (Verse 14).

“He did not come into existence in the beginning. In the beginning He WAS.  When He came to this world He  BECAME flesh. He has not been previously flesh.”

IGNORANCE OF GOD’S WORD IS SIN

April 26, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

IGNORANCE OF GOD’S WORD IS SIN. 

“There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Prov.16:25, KJV.

Good morning on this first working day of this week, four months now grappling with this covid-19 global pandemic with no certain path forward for the rest of the world, but not for those who have been diligently storing God’s Word in their minds.

We should be alarmed and afraid, not of being infected and dying of the corona virus but of committing the sin of negligence that results in the sin of ignorance of God’s Word! Observe:

The truth and the glory of God are inseparable; it is impossible for us, with the Bible within our reach, to honor God by erroneous opinions. Many claim that it matters not what one believes, if his life is only right.
