Slaves to Righteousness
Hi Everyone,
On Wednesday we considered how Paul explains in Romans 6 that everyone is either a slave to sin or a slave to righteousness – there are only these two options. If we are slaves of sin, the only reward that we can anticipate is death. But if we are slaves to righteousness, this brings greater sanctification and the gift of eternal life. As we contemplate our life in Christ, may we be eager to bear fruit in Christian service.
Our Pastoral Intern, Mr. Jonathan Bartlett, will preach on Sunday morning. Please pray that Jonathan and Maddie will quickly adjust to Sunnyvale life.
In the evening, Mr. Ben Ciavolella will fill our pulpit. He is the pastoral intern of Delta Oaks, Pittsburgh, CA.
Sincerely,
Elder Lemen
