July 2nd 2023 – “Listening for God”

2023-07-02 "Listening for God?" 11 AM

Dear friends, 

One of our Scripture readings is taken from Romans 6: 12-23, “dead to sin, alive in Christ.”  Salvation is a gift of God’s grace.  The Apostle Paul says in verse 23, “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3: 23), but thanks be to God, He gives us victory through our Lord Jesus!  

“There is power, power, wonder-working power, in the precious blood of the Lamb.” (taken from the hymn “There is Power in the Blood” by Lewis E. Jones)
