The Membership Corollary

Here's a thought provoking word for your Friday:

Our membership in the church is a corollary of our faith in Christ. We can no more be a Christian and have nothing to do with the church than we can be a person and not be in a family.… It is part of the fabric of redemption. (Eugene Petersen, The Contemplative Pastor)

He is risen.  He is risen indeed!

Your King is coming

All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King is coming to you, Lowly, and sitting on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey. Matthew 21:4-5

We are entering into the best part of the year for Christians, and it begins this Lord's Day as we reflect upon the King's entry into Jerusalem on what has since been named "Palm Sunday."

It was a direct fulfillment of prophecy... It was a brazen declaration of sovereignty... It was an astonishing claim if deity. He was and is the King - YOUR King, to be more precise.

Pick up a palm branch with us this coming Lord's Day, and worship Him with us. And, if you haven't yet met Him... Or are just wondering what He is all about, just come and learn about Him... Come and meet Your King.

Sunday School begins at 9:30, and the Worship Service takes place at 10:30.
