Call to Worship
Revive Thy work, O Lord
Thy mighty arm make bare
Speak with the voice that wakes the dead
And make Thy people hear.
Revive Thy work, O Lord
Create soul-thirst for Thee
And hungering for the Bread of Life
Oh may our spirits be.
Revive Thy work, O Lord
Exalt Thy precious name
And by Thy Holy Ghost divine
Our love for Thee enflame.
Revive Thy work, O Lord
And give refreshing showers
The glory shall be Thine alone
The blessings, Lord, be ours.
(Tune: "Blest Be The Ties")
Psalm 66:1-2 "Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands: Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious."

The "Preaching of Christ" is much more than making frequent use of His name in our discourses, or even talking of His wondrous love and work for sinners. The "Preaching of Jesus Christ" is first and foremost the magnifying of His unique person, and making known of who He is - the God-man. Second, it is the opening up of His mediatorial office in which He serves as Prophet, Priest and Potentate. Third, it is the proclamation of His wondrous redemption. Fourth, it is the enforcing of His claims and the holding up of the perfect example He left us.-
~A. W. Pink
Why did the dove return to the ark and the raven never return? Because the raven could live off the dead, decaying animals drowned in the flood. But the dove could not. It had to return to the ark for its food. The raven represents the religious man who does not know Christ. He is satisfied with the dead, rotting works of the flesh. But the true believer must return to Christ his ark for food. The mark of a true believer is that he is continually coming to Christ for the same thing! Mercy and grace! He cannot be satisfied with anything less.
~Todd Nibert
Modern day evangelism (so-called) says to any and all it approaches, "God loves you and Christ died for you." But none of the prophets nor any of the apostles addressed people in this way. The starting point of true evangelism is to acquaint men with the holy and sovereign character of God. This is the "beginning of wisdom", which is able to make a man wise unto salvation: for THE FEAR OF THE LORD brings men to true repentance and faith.
