Worship Preparation - July 2, 2023
Sunday, July 2, 2023
Read the sermon text: Romans 12:16
Read the sermon summary: What does it mean to live in harmony with one another? How does being haughty or being wise in one's own sight invite disharmony? In this week's passage, we will consider the notion of harmony and its significance for the life of the church by looking at two nuances articulated here and elsewhere in Paul's letter to the Romans. As we prepare for the sermon, think of experiences in your own life where God has moved contrary to your expectations or desires, and how these experiences have contributed to a deeper closeness with your brothers and sisters and with God himself.
Read the following song lyrics in relation to the sermon:
There Is One Gospel
There is one Gospel on which I stand
For all eternity
It is my story my Father's plan
The Son has rescued me
Oh what a Gospel oh what a peace
My highest joy and my deepest need
Now and forever He is my light
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
There is one Gospel to which I cling
All else I count as loss
For there where justice and mercy meet
He saved me on the cross
No more I boast in what I can bring
No more I carry the weight of sin
For He has brought me from death to life
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
There is one Gospel where hope is found
The empty tomb still speaks
For death could not keep my Saviour down
He lives and I am free
Now on my Saviour I fix my eyes
My life is His and His hope is mine
For he has promised I too will rise
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
And in this Gospel the church is one
We do not walk alone
We have His Spirit as we press on
To lead us safely home
And when in glory still I will sing
Of this old story that rescued me
Praise to my Saviour the King of life
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
And when in glory still I will sing
Of this old story that rescued me
Praise to my Saviour the King of life
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Praise to my Saviour the King of life
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
I stand in the Gospel of Jesus Christ
