Psalm 103:6

Confession of Faith | Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty, From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead, I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Universal Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, And the life everlasting.
Amen

Scripture Reading | Romans 8:18-30

Future Glory

18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because[a] the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,[b] for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.

 

Sermon | “Resurrection Glory”

Scripture Reading | Romans 8:18-30

Central Truth: In our hardship, let us receive help from the Spirit and have hope in our Savior.

Summary: This may be one of the most glorious chapters in Scripture, and yet, it is not avoidant of suffering. Paul talks about our suffering and groaning along with creation, however, we have the help of the Spirit and the hope of our salvation and future glory.

Points:
  1. Our Hardship (vv. 18-22)
  2. Our Help (vv. 23-27)
  3. Our Hope (vv. 28-30)

Reflective Questions:

  1. What are the ways we groan at the suffering in this world?
  2. How does our future glory affect our view of present suffering?
  3. What is our hope in the midst of hardship?

Quotes:

“Our lives consist of groans. We groan because of the ravages that sin makes in our lives, and in the lives of those we love. Also we groan because we see possibilities that are not being captured and employed. And then we groan because we see gifted people who are wasting their lives, and we would love to see something else happening. It is recorded that, as he drew near the tomb of Lazarus, Jesus groaned in his spirit because he was so burdened by the ravages that sin had made in a believing family. He groaned, even though he knew he would soon raise Lazarus from the dead. So we groan in our spirits—we groan in disappointment, in bereavement, in sorrow. We groan physically in our pain and our limitation. Life consists of a great deal of groaning.” -Ray Stedman
“Tragedies are on our minds every day, but what Romans 8:28 teaches is that ultimately- not proximately but ultimately- there are no tragedies for the Christian. Tragedy now is blessing later. In every tragedy we experience, God is working with it, molding it, and shaping it, for our eternal blessedness. The tragic is ephemeral and temporary. It is in the world but never permanent.” -R.C. Sproul

Prayer Topics

Season of Lent

As we start the season of Lent, let us reflect on Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection. Let us reflect on our own hearts and repent of our sin and idolatries. Let us renew our hope in Christ: His person and work.

Resurrection Sunday

As we celebrate the empty tomb, we are reminded that death and sin have been defeated. Jesus is the Savior of the world, and His work on the cross has been received on our behalf. This resurrection power is alive in us today. Let us pray that we may live with resurrection hope, power, and freedom.

Senior Pastor Search

Let us give thanks to the Lord for Pastor David’s 20 years of faithful and fruitful service. As we search for the next senior pastor, please pray for our pastoral search committee. Pray for wisdom, strength, and unity. Also, please pray for our church during this time of transition.
  1. Please pray for the recruitment process to proceed under God’s full guidance.
  2. Please pray that a suitable successor pastor will be called for our New Life Mission Church.
  3. Please pray for the invited committee members to receive wisdom and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
  4. Please pray that all believers will work hard to come together with one heart and one mind during the calling process.
