2 The Gospel According to Greg Greg Taylor I mentioned Sunday during the Thanksgiving quiz about the account in Luke 17 of Jesus healing the ten lepers in verses 11 through 19. Let me remind you of this incredible thanksgiving account: 11 Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee. 12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a distance 13 and called out in a loud voice, Jesus, Master, have pity on us! 14 When he saw them, he said, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And as they went, they were cleansed. 15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. 16 He threw himself at Jesus feet and thanked him and he was a Samaritan. 17 Jesus asked, Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? 18 Has no one returned to give praise to God except this foreigner? 19 Then he said to him, Rise and go; your faith has made you well. Do you ever consider why only one of the ten returned to say thanks to Jesus? Doesn t really make sense, does it? Christian author Charles Brown has speculated what the other nine might have been thinking: One waited to see if the cure was real. One waited to see if it would last.
3 The Gospel According to Greg (cont d) One said he would see Jesus later. One decided that he had never had leprosy. One said he would have gotten well anyway. One gave the glory to the priests. One said, "O, well, Jesus didn't really do anything." One said, "Any rabbi could have done it." One said, "I was already much improved." We are called to be thankful people all the time. I love the Message translation of 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live. No matter what living that is what the thankful life is all about! Have a great week see you Sunday for Ask the Pastor Sunday! Greg

5 Young at Heart David Buck, Coordinator We all make mistakes. We all have weaknesses. The Bible says that we are not to have a hard-hearted, critical spirit toward each other and to show mercy to one another just as God for Christ s sake has done for us. For there is no respect of persons with God. Romans 2:11 KJV We ll enjoy the 5 th of December, with the Heyworth choir coming to sing Christmas songs for us. We are so blessed to have them come each year and bring us seasonal joy. We will also have our Angel Tree Silent Auction (don t forget the item to be auctioned off) then we will have our gift exchange (bring a gift for the same sex). It will be a fun and very giving day. Thank you, all! So don t be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time. Matthew 6:34 TLB Such a fine and happy trip we had to Branson. The shows were excellent and the food was glorious. On our last evening, the Sight and Sound Theater presented the story of Joseph and it really gave us an understanding of his life. Branson is such a nice place to start the holiday season and gave us such warm hearts. We ll be going to Lincoln Christian University on the 29 th of November for Christmas in the Chapel, an elegant production. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear Psalm 46:1 NIV The bottom line is this God s ways work, man s ways don t. God condemns judgment, criticism, and suspicion, and so should we. Love what God loves and hate what He hates. Allow what He allows and disallow what He disallows. Trust and faith bring joy to life and helps relationships grow to their maximum potential. Unknown Jack & Janine Swanson, missionaries to Chile, ask for support of their children s ministry in Santiago, Chile, through the sale of marble people nativity sets. They sell for $30 each and will be on display, in the church foyer, before & after services on Sunday, November 25th. These miniature marble figurines are all hand-made and hand-painted by one family in southern Chile. Ten sets are available for purchase. To learn more about this ministry, please visit

11 Everyday Worship Worship As a Body - Part 2 Jim Coonce jim@clintonfcc.com We continue with the final five reasons Bob Kauflin shares for us to gather weekly for worship: Manifestations of God s Presence In the middle of adjusting the Corinthians love affair with certain spiritual gifts, Paul notes how these gifts can alert an unbeliever to God s presence. David Peterson writes, 1 Corinthians 14:24 25 suggests that God is present in a distinctive way in the Christian meeting through his word and the operation of his Spirit (Engaging with God, 196). Without making experiential encounters with God our primary goal, we should expect God to make us more aware of His presence with us when we meet together. God s Voice Through Preaching Technology now enables us to hear sermons we missed or messages from churches we don t even attend. But when the church gathers expectantly in one place at one time to hear God s Word proclaimed, it is a unique event. God Himself addresses us as His people. The Spirit works in our hearts to convict, comfort, illumine, and exhort. We hear God s voice through a human mouthpiece and are changed. Demonstrating Unity in the Gospel Being one in Christ is more than meeting regularly in the same room, but it is not less. Singing songs, reciting creeds, and reading Scripture together are ways of declaring to myself and others that I am part of a holy temple, not just a random brick or a loose stone (Ephesians 2:19 22). Christian proclamation might make the gospel audible, but Christians living together in local congregations make the gospel visible (see John 13:34 35) (Mark Dever, The Church: The Gospel Made Visible, p. xi). Dying to Self Let s face it it s easier to worship God alone than with others. Church meetings introduce many aggravations, such as insufficient parking, people taking my seat, obnoxious voices, songs I don t prefer, and people with problems. But this makes such meetings ideal opportunities for cultivating the humble attitude of Christ (Philippians 2:1 5) and dying to ourselves. Foretastes of Heaven Want to know what heaven is going to be like? Go to church. The singing may not be as stellar, the numbers might be drastically reduced, and the people might all come from the same ethnicity. But Hebrews 12 says we have already come to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant (vv ). Jesus has brought us near to the Father through His finished atoning work on Calvary. We can draw near with boldness to the throne of grace with His people (Hebrews 10:19 22). That s heaven. So, the next time you re tempted to think cutting out on a Sunday meeting will not hurt, remember what you will be missing. And thank God you have both the privilege and freedom to enjoy corporate worship with the body of Christ each week. From Worship As a Body by Bob Kauflin,
