2 Sabbath School Ministry 9:40am, Sanctuary Presented by Elder John Olive Prelude Divine Worship 11:00am Musicians Scripture Reading and Prayer Church at Study Closing Prayer Memory Text: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (Romans 3:28). Thoughts to Ponder: In this lesson we come to the basic theme of Romans: justification by faith-the great truth that, more than any other truth, brought about the Protestant Reformation. And despite all the claims to the contrary, Rome has no more changed regarding this belief now than it did in 1520, when Pope Leo issued a papal bull condemning Luther and his teachings. Luther burned a copy of the bull because if there were one teaching that could never be compromised, justification by faith was and is it. In the plan of salvation each of us is the criminal. The substitute, Jesus, has a perfect record, and He stands in the court in our stead, His righteousness accepted in place of our unrighteousness. Hence we are justified before God, not because of our works but because of Jesus, whose righteousness becomes ours when we accept it by faith. Talk about good news! In fact, the news can t get any better than that. Classes/Programs are also held for our young people: Beginners (age 0-4); Kindergarten (pre-school); Primary (grade school); Juniors (Middle School); and Youth (high school). For directions to the various classes please see one of our Greeters.
