"Go therefore and make disciples of
all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that
I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to
the end of the age." Matthew 28:19-20 |

By the grace of God two brothers
opened their houses for our first two services (3/26/06 and 4/2/06):
Act 5:42
And daily in the temple,
and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus
Christ.
The Lord blessed us with His presence:
Mat 18:20
For
where
two
or
three
are
gathered together
in
my
name,
there
am
I
in
the
midst
of
them.
Prayer was conducted according to the
Word of God:
John 4:23
But
the
hour
cometh,
and
now
is,
when
the
true
worshipers
shall
worship
the
Father
in
spirit
and
in
truth:
for
the
Father
seeketh
such
to
worship
him.
The Lord comforted our souls with His
Word and His Spirit:
1 Cor 14:3 But he that prophesieth
speaketh unto men to
edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
We were also blessed to participate in
the body and blood of our Lord and commemorate His crucifixion:
1Cor 10:16 The cup of blessing which
we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The
bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of
Christ?
1Cor 10:17 For we
being
many are one bread, and
one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
1Cor 11:24 And when he had given
thanks, he broke it,
and said, Take,
eat:
this
is
my
body,
which is broken
for
you:
this
do
in
remembrance
of
me.
1Cor 11:25 After the same manner
also he
took
the cup, when he had supped, saying,
This
cup
is
the
new
testament
in
my
blood:
this
do
ye,
as oft as
ye
drink
it,
in
remembrance
of
me.
What else, we wonder, does the Lord
have in store for us? His Word promises to us:
1Cor 2:9 But as it is written,
Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the
heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that
love him.
May God bless us all and prepare us
for His coming.
With love in Christ. |
