1 TENTH INTERNATIONALS WORSHIP SERVICE Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the ages. Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed. Revelation 15:3 4 MESSAGE Head Coverings Enrique Leal June 18, 2017 MINISTER OF INTERNATIONALS Rev. Enrique Leal MINISTER OF GLOBAL OUTREACH Dr. Bruce McDowell

2 ORDER OF WORSHIP 1 Welcome Message Call to Worship (responsive) 6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! 7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Today, if you hear his voice, Psalm 95:67a Invocation Hymn 119: I Sing the Almighty Power of God Apostles Creed I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From there he will come to judge the living 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. We repeat the Apostles Creed as has been done in the western church since the first century as a confession of what we believe and as a means of remembering and transmitting essential doctrines. Although not written by the apostles, it is a summary based upon Scripture and was composed in response to heresies that arose. A few phrases were added in succeeding centuries in response to theological errors until it reached its present form in the eighth century. Doxology 1. All 2.

3 2 Announcements Welcome to Newcomers Multilingual Prayer Hymn 653: Jesus Is All the World to Me Offering Prayer Offering At the Internationals Worship Service we collect an offering as part of our worship to God. It is not given as a payment, but as a free will offering of a portion of our income in response to God s blessing in our lives. Internationals Outreach uses the funds toward the operation of its ministry in reaching the world that has come to our doorstep. Scripture Reading 1 Corinthians 11:116 Sermon 1 Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ. 2 Now I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I delivered them to you. 3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, 5 but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven. 6 For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head. 7 For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man. 8 For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. 9 Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. 10 That is why a wife ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels. 11 Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man nor man of woman; 12 for as woman was made from man, so man is now born of woman. And all things are from God. 13 Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a wife to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14 Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him, 15 but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering. 16 If anyone is inclined to be contentious, we have no such practice, nor do the churches of God.
