WELCOME
On behalf of our church family, we welcome you to our 2nd Annual Free Grace Conference. We are thankful to have three faithful ambassadors of Christ to declare to us the gospel of God's free and sovereign grace. Several brethren whom the Lord has gifted to sing of our Lord have come our way. We look forward to hearing them do so. Our ladies have worked diligently to prepare refreshments and meals for after each service. There are short articles and sermons on CD provided for your taking on the table in the back. Lord willing, the sermons preached this weekend will be available on our website, www.FreeGraceMedia.com. It is to the praise of the glory of God that He has been gracious to enable this congregation to promote the good news of our all-victorious Redeemer in this way. We thank Him. I especially thank each of these dear saints who performed the various tasks necessary to put this meeting together. What a gift to have faithful brethren in the midst of this world! The Psalmist wrote, "Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified" (Ps 40: 16.) So above all, in the singing, the reading of the scriptures, the preaching of the gospel, even in all that is said and done, our purpose and prayer to God for this meeting is that our great God and Savior the Lord Jesus Christ be high and lifted up! We hope you enjoy your time with us and come visit us in our usual meeting location at the Rocky Hill Firehouse (times and address are on the front of the bulletin.) Clay Curtis

CHOSEN OF GOD
Hebrews 5: 1-6

Christ Jesus receives the preeminent glory in the election of God (Isaiah 42:1-4; Col 1: 18, 19.) God's first choosing was Christ Jesus to represent those God gave him from before the foundation of the world, just as Aaron was chosen of God to represent a particular people (John 6: 39; Eph 1: 3, 4.) And just as Aaron did not take this honor to himself, so also Christ Jesus glorified not himself to be made a priest, but was chosen of God (Hebrews 5: 1-5; John 8: 54.)

What does this have to do with us needy sinners? Every sinner whom God calls in sovereign grace is made a priest unto God through the finished work of Christ (Rev 1: 6; 1 Peter 2: 5) But if Christ Jesus glorified not himself to be made a High Priest then God forbid any sinner glory that by our will we took this honor to ourselves.

Since Adam's one transgression, every man's will is bound to choose that which glorifies man, not God (Rom 3: 10-18.) Still, our total inability in no way negates our responsibility to honor God. When the Spirit of God creates a sinner anew, making us to behold our responsibility in the face of our utter inability, the Lord creates peace in the heart, by teaching us, "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you…" (John 15: 16.) Dear sinner, no peace compares to this peace! The willing heart which God gives through the power of his grace is the willingness to rejoice in this good news that it was not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son, the satisfaction for our sins (I Peter 2: 9.) By the one offering of our great High Priest He perfected forever them that are sanctified (Heb 10: 14.)

Oh, how we rejoice that our God receives all glory for choosing Christ and for choosing whom HE WILL in our Beloved! Those called of God want it no other way.
