St. John's Group Email TWO DOGS DINING
Just had to share this with you all today. A very funny video. Will give you a big chuckle.
St. John's Group Email Wednesday, April 27, 2011
DEVOTION:
Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear on another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Galatians 6:1-3
What is the purpose of the church? Is it a bunch of individuals going about their own business and not caring at all about or for one another? Is it all kinds of different people looking out for their own interests? NO! The purpose of the church is twofold. The first is to bear each other's burdens. The second is to share the love of Christ with the lost.
Tonight we will take a look at how we have been doing this as a church and how we could be doing it better. We will learn how to go about fulfilling God's purpose for His church!
Please come to church tonight from 6:30-9:30 to talk about how we can better bear one another's burdens, how we can restore one another when we are caught in sin, and how we can fulfill the law of Christ.
Prayer: Lord God, help us to learn from our mistakes. Help us to grow in faith toward you and in love toward each other. And help us to fulfill Your law to love each other as you have loved us. Amen.
