Released from the Law (announcements for 12 June)
Hi Everyone,
On Wednesday we considered in Romans 7 how God’s permanent moral law, which is summed up in the Ten Commandments, reveals our sin and therefore our need for Christ, the Savior of sinners. But conviction of sin is not enough. It is not conversion. But when we are saved, as redeemed people we are released from the condemnation of the law, and when we obey God’s law, we bear spiritual fruit.
Our Pastoral Intern, Mr. Jonathan Bartlett, is preaching this Sunday. Next Sunday, 19 June, our former pastor, Prof. Ryan McGraw, will fill the pulpit and we will celebrate the Lord’s Supper during the AM service. An offering for the work of the Deacons will be taken during the AM service.
Sincerely,
Elder Lemen
