GREETINGS, EVERYONE! I want to mention a couple of things to our men right out of the chute:
  • MACH 4 Men's Ministry is meeting at Fairport Baptist Church this evening (Saturday) at 6 pm. All men and boys are invited to attend. Supper will be provided. (I regret that I won't be able to attend as today is Lorrie and my wedding anniversary and we are celebrating this evening).
  • "The Man of God and Work" Biblical Manhood Conference, Saturday, Aug. 20, 8:30 am - 2:45 pm, at Frederick Boulevard Baptist in St. Joseph. Guys, you don't want to miss this conference. Greg Gilbert, author of the Crossway title "The Gospel" and pastor of Third Avenue Baptist in Louisville, KY, will be the keynote speaker. Several other pastors will be breakout leaders, including yours truly talking about "Balancing Work and Rest." Lunch from Chick-Fil-A is included in the conference fee of $25. If you want to sign up by paper, make your check out to First Baptist Church and put "men's conference" in the memo line.
  • *NOTE: If you would like to go to the conference, but need scholarship funds to attend, please let me know.

If you would like to carpool to the conference, we will meet at the church at 7:20 am, leave no later than 7:30, and likely be back to Maysville by 3:30 pm
Sign up in the foyer or on eventbrite by Monday, August 15. For more information, visit the event Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/Biblical-Manhood-Conference-St-Joseph-MO-108406211384369/
THE LORD'S DAY (8/14): 
  • Bible Study for All Ages, 9:30 am. Nursery through Senior Adult, we have a group for you!
  • Worship Together at 10:40 in the Sanctuary. We will be studying Luke 13:22-30 together on the subject "The Door of Salvation." Only those who come to God through His appointed means (repentance from sin and faith in Christ alone) will be saved. Jesus describes the means of salvation as "the narrow door."
  • Scriptures for Sunday.  Here are the Scriptures we will be reading that will shape our corporate worship. Take a few moments to read and meditate on them as you prepare for worship tomorrow. Click anywhere on the link to see a printable version of these passages on biblegateway.com
    • Call to Worship: Psalm 80:1-2, 8-19
    • Old Testament Reading: Isaiah 5:1-7
    • New Testament Reading: Hebrews 11:29-12:2
    • Assurance of Pardon: 1 John 1:7-10
    • Sermon Text: Luke 13:22-30
    • Benediction: Numbers 6:24-26
  • Baptist Catechism Questions 21-22
    We are working our way through the Baptist Catechism of 1693, also known as “Keach’s Catechism” after Elias Keach, its primary editor. These questions and answers have been slightly updated. Take a few moments to read through these questions as we prepare to affirm our faith together.
  • Question 21: Into what condition did the fall bring mankind?
    Answer: 
    The fall brought mankind into a condition of sin and misery.
    Scripture: Psalm 51:5; Romans 5:18-19; 7:18; Isaiah 53:6; 64:6; John 3:6-7; Ephesians 2:1-3; 1 Corinthians 2:14.

    Question 22: What is the sinfulness of that condition into which all mankind has fallen?
    Answer: The sinfulness of the condition into which all mankind fell is the guilt of Adam’s first sin, the lack of original righteousness, and the corruption of our whole nature (which is commonly called original sin), together with all actual transgressions which come from this nature.
    Scripture: Romans 5:19; 3:10; Ephesians 2:1; Isaiah 53:6; Psalm 51:5; Matthew 15:19.

    Comment: The Bible says that "in Adam all die" (1 Cor. 15:22) and that "one transgression yields condemnation for all men" (Rom. 5:18) and that "one man’s disobedience made many sinners" (Rom. 5:19). These statements lead us to conclude that God, in a way beyond our comprehension, established a unity between Adam and his posterity which makes it just for us to receive the imputation of his guilt and corruption. He was in some sense our representative head. We sinned in him and fell with him.

  • FELLOWSHIP MEAL and MEMBER MEETING, following morning worship on Sunday. Join us after the morning worship service for a fellowship meal and our bi-monthly member meeting. The church will provide drinks and table service, everything else will be carry-in. So bring your favorite dishes, salads, and desserts for everyone to enjoy tomorrow. Members of the Monday Evening "Sunday" School, the Crosswalk Class, and others will be hosting the meal. I'm sure they would appreciate you pitching in to help with either preparation or clean-up.

ICYMI: Last Sunday's sermon audio "Jesus, the Sabbath, and the Kingdom of God" Luke 13:10-21

FIGHTER VERSE: We are not currently reciting the Fighter Verses during the worship service, but I encourage you to do so in your Sunday School class and your Bible study group. Personally commit these verses to your heart, and I believe God will bless you as you do.
We have been learning verses from Psalm 91. This week's verses are Psalm 91:11-13
For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
    lest you strike your foot against a stone.
You will tread on the lion and the adder;
    the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.



READ THROUGH THE BIBLE The Five-Day Bible Reading Plan is attached to this e-mail for your convenience.
You may want to access additional resources to support your reading available at this website.


BONUS: Here is a link to a video version of the song we sang last Sunday in worship entitled "On the Word of God," by Jim Spencer and the Spencer Family. I'm sure it will become a regular part of our congregational singing repertoire. Enjoy!


See you in church!


Grace and peace,


Pastor Greg
