CALL TO WORSHIP
YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN
Words by Don Fortner
“Ye must be born again!”
If you would enter in
Or see the kingdom of our God,
You must be born again.
“Ye must be born again!”
Like Lazarus in the tomb,
Corrupt, unclean, and dead in sin,
You must be born again.
“Ye must be born again!”
Not by your own free will,
But by God’s Spirit (Mighty Wind!),
You must be born again.
“Ye must be born again!”
May God the Spirit come,
Come as a mighty, rushing wind,
And you’ll be born again!
(Tune: “This Is My Father’s World” p. 39)

THE ONLY DAMNING SIN
All sin is filthy and corrupt. All sin is open rebellion against God, but there is only one sin that will damn a person: the sin of unbelief. Unbelief is born from self-righteousness. It is trusting self instead of trusting Christ as God commands. The result is damnation. “So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Heb 3:19)
If you would be saved, God the Holy Spirit must give you faith in Christ. God cannot be pleased with us apart from faith in Christ. “Without faith it is impossible to please him.” (Heb. 11:6) It is impossible to have spiritual life without faith in Christ. “The just shall live by faith.” (Rom. 1:17) Sinners can only be justified by faith in Christ. “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Rom. 5:1)
If we refuse to believe on Christ we will perish. “if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” (John 8:24) The scriptures give us record of idolaters being saved, of adulterers being saved, of murderers being saved, of harlots being saved, of dishonest businessmen being saved, and of those who persecuted the church being saved, but there is no one ever saved who did not believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.
Do you believe on Him?

“And she bound the scarlet line in the window” Jos. 2:21.
Rahab’s obedience to bind the line of scarlet thread in the window, that thread which pictured the Lord Jesus, the One who’s blood was shed for the redemption of His people, may have seemed to be a foolish or even a small and insignificant thing to everyone else in Jericho, but to Rahab, it was the token of life promised through the mouths of God’s servants. And likewise, to the unbelieving world who places all its hope in the flesh, “to worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh,” is seen to be a foolish, small, and insignificant thing…but to all who believe in the Lord Jesus, it is the confession of hope and life in Christ…life that is proclaimed through the mouths of God’s faithful servants.
Pastor Marvin Stalnaker
“Christ Is All” - Colossians 3:11
What does it mean to say “Christ is all”? It means, Christ is the one and only thing needful in this life. Christ is ALL of our salvation. Christ is ALL of our forgiveness. Christ is ALL of our mercy and grace. Christ is ALL of our hope and peace. He is ALL of our righteousness. He is ALL of our redemption. when it comes to everything that a sinner needs - Christ is all!
Christ is all that the Father needs for our acceptance with Him. Christ is all that the law needs for our fulfillment of it. Christ is all that Justice needs to declare us holy before it. Christ is all that Judgement needs to declare our condemnation and punishment complete.
Christ is all that heaven needs for the JOY of it. Christ is all that His kingdom needs for the MAJESTY of it. Christ is all that the throne needs for the GLORY of it. Christ is all that His marriage union to His bride needs for the LOVE of it.
For time and eternity, from this world to the world to come, Christ is (and will forever be) all! Thank God! Amen!
