Is It Sunday Yet?

Is it Sunday yet?  The Lord's Day should be the best day of the week.  By the grace of God, for my family it certainly is.

This coming Sunday we prayerfully anticipate another morning of vibrant Christian fellowship.  Spirit-filled praise.  Edifying, and sometimes humorous and/or tearful, conversations.  And focused expository listening.

The believers that make up Lake Country Bible Church are full of Christian joy and hope.  Our founding pastor worked hard to ensure that this fellowship was Word-centered; without losing our identity of also being a loving family of believers.  Pastor Sal believed that the Lord's Church is to be known for its commitment to Christ-like love (John 13), absolute truth/sound doctrine (1 Tim. 3:15; Jude 3; Eph. 4:11-16), and "good deeds" (Heb. 10:24-25; Eph. 2:10).  It's both/and rather than either/or.

During the 9 AM Sunday School hour our children/teens will be in stage of life focused classes.  Our wonderful teachers will highlight biblical truth using Answers in Genesis material.  One of our elders (Dave) will lead the adults in prayer and then continue his excellent series through Galatians.

At 10:15 AM the entire congregation will come together for our corporate worship service:

1) We will sing a number of praise songs and hymns (Col. 3:16; "Jesus Shall Reign;" "10,000 Reasons;" "His Mercy is More;" "Before the Throne of God Above;" and "By Faith.")

The 4-Fold 'Hallelujahs' of Revelation 19!

Sunday is fast approaching and I can't wait. This Lord's Day we'll finish up where Pastor Sal left off as we consider the very best part of the story of redemptive-history- the end (of the new beginning). 

Sunday's sermon text/title is Revelation 19:1-10 (pt. 1): "Why Every Person Should Add Their Voice to the 'Hallelujah' Chorus." 

Did you know the word "Hallelujah" is only used four times in the entire New Testament.  All four occurrences appear in Revelation 19!  Why is this?

During Sunday School the adult class will continue our contemporary events and "Biblical Manhood and Womanhood" series. We are currently working our way through 1 Corinthians 11. As evangelical feminism continues to confuse God's original and marvelous design for men and women this is a very timely study.

Our songs of praise have been listed in the comment section of my Facebook page! Come prepared to sing and to glorify the Lord.

"Sunday Morning Begins Saturday Night"

Charles Spurgeon: "We are told men ought not to preach without preparation. Granted. But we add, men ought not to hear without preparation. Which do you think needs the most preparation, the sower or the ground? I would have the sower come with clean hands, but I would have the ground well-plowed & harrowed, well-turned over, and the clods broken before the seed comes in."
