Call to Worship

As on the cross of Christ I thought, It seemed I heard one cry
Is all this nothing in your eyes, You who this day pass by?
Is not such suff'ring greater than
That which you've seen before?
And was there ever any man, Who grieved or suffered more?

I looked again, and what I saw, I cannot fully tell
It seemed within His very bones, There raged the fire of hell.
What caused you grief? I asked the man,
What crimes could you have done?
That God Jehovah, struck you down, And left you all alone?

His answer cut my heart like steel, And left me void of breath
‘ Tis for your sins this pain I feel, For you I go to death!
Your soul, before my Father's throne
Could find no place to hide
This is the way God can be just, and you be justified.

Jehovah's mercies never fail, each morning they are new
Great is His faithfulness and love
Therefore, we're not consumed!
Jehovah God, in Christ the Son, shall all my portion be
My soul shall, therefore, wait for Him, and live eternally.

(Tune: "There is a Fountain").

"Our Lord Is Above All gods" - Psalm 135:5

Our God is God!. Creator, Owner, Judge, Despot. Our Lord is Lord....Lord of lords, reigning, ruling, controlling, directing all things! No one lets our God be God...No, No!....this is their god, who is no God. Our God is God! - Always has been, always shall be... "I am that I am." No one makes our Lord to be Lord....No, No!... "God hath made Jesus Christ to be Lord!" "All power is given unto Him in Heaven and earth" (Matt. 28:18). You see.... "Our Lord is above ALL gods." How so? The next verse says, "Whatsoever the Lord pleased, that did He in Heaven and in earth....."
Pity the poor people whose god is not God; who pray unto a god that cannot save. Oh but, "Blessed are the people whose God is THE LORD." - Pastor Paul Mahan

"For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God." - Romans 10:3

It is not for ignorance, as such, that the Jews were condemned. If that were so, a simple theology lesson would have brought them salvation. Rather, it was what their ignorance led them to do that sealed their doom: they would not submit to the righteousness of God revealed in Jesus Christ. It is certain that if a man is ignorant of the righteousness of God, he cannot and will not submit to it. But it is also true that a man may be fully aware of the righteousness of God as revealed in the Gospel doctrine yet not submit to it. So subtle is Satan and so deceptive the human heart that one may actually think that his acknowledgement of the righteousness of God is his righteousness: He may think that, because he believes the doctrine, and even publicly defends it, God accepts him. It is one thing to submit to a doctrine, it is another thing altogether to submit to Jesus Christ as one's only righteousness before God.
How can we know whether we have gone, not only from ignorance to knowledge, but also from knowledge to submission? It is primarily revealed in this: we cease from establishing our own righteousness before God. We glory in nothing other than Christ's cross, soothe our conscience with nothing but His blood, and rest our hope for favor with God on nothing other than Christ's acceptance before the Father.

- Pastor Joe Terrell

Isaiah 42:4 "He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law."

He Shall Not Fail:

1) To establish righteousness for His people by His obedience.

2) To put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

3) To take the sting out of death and victory away from the grave.

4) To subdue all things to himself.

5) To deliver his people from the curse of the law and the power of sin.

6) To deliver up the kingdom of God fully intact.

7) To raise his people from the grave to full glory and present them faultless before the presence of his glory. God's servant shall not fail, cannot fail, did not fail and will not fail.
