1 The Christian Connection V o l u m e X X I I I, I s s u e 5 M a y Our Redeemer Lutheran Church NE 140th St. Kirkland, WA ORLCKIRKLAND Resurrection Power The early Christian Church lived in the power of the resurrection. The resurrection transformed their personal lives and it empowered their ministry. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ the Christian Church would have floundered just as thousands of religions have over the centuries. The survival of Christianity is dependent on the power of the resurrection at work in the lives of Jesus followers. How does this affect you and me? Is it realistic to believe that we can wake up tomorrow morning and expect our lives to be different because we are engaged with the power of Jesus resurrection? Here s how the Apostle Paul would counsel us in Romans 6:4: Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. Paul teaches us that we need to identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Christ through faith so that God s transformative power would be released into our lives. This is not superficial, but radical in the sense that God needs to work in the very core of our being. Death to sin and death to self, burial of our old lives and miraculous newness of the Spirit all shape who we become in Christ.

Looking forward to walking in the newness of life with you, Pastor Moland Would you want to put this into practice? This divine adventure is what Paul longed for, that he might know Him, and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death. Philippians 3:10 In this vital relationship, Paul was enabled to walk in the newness of life, to have old things pass away and to have all things become new. In this life-giving relationship, Paul could testify, I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ lives in me, and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me. Galatians 2:21 The purpose of Our Redeemer Lutheran Church is to worship God in a Biblebased, Christ-centered ministry, evangelizing, discipling, nurturing and equipping people for the spiritual well- being of every life. 1

3 NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER this year is Thursday, May 4 th. ORLC will once again remain open all day for those who would like to visit and spend some time in prayer. Let s join together in prayer for OUR CHURCH and OUR FREEDOM. While we often associate the word church with our locale of worship, Scripture takes a much broader view. The Church, ultimately, refers to the body of Christian believers around the world. The Lord is passionate for His Church, His bride. From the dawn of time, God s purposes have centered on revealing His glory through His people and securing our eternity with Him. Pray for the Lord to spark a revival throughout our nation, protect the witness of our pastors, and continue to sanctify and purify Christians around the world. We know that the spiritual condition of homes, communities and countries often points back to the believers within those regions. That being the case, it s all the more important that we strive after righteousness, corporately as well as individually. Let s give thanks to God for our freedom which has not been won easily and is even now being challenged by foreign governments, Islamic terrorists, and anarchy in our streets. Together let s ask Him to grant us peace in our hearts and in our home, on our streets and in our state houses. Pray now that He will bless those who at this moment are defending our freedom by their courageous sacrifice willing to lay down their lives to keep us free and safe. Let s pray we will never abuse our freedom or take it for granted, but will guard it as the gift from God that it is. Matthew 16:18-19 Ephesians 4:3-6 II Thessalonians 1:4 3 Acts 16:15
4 DEACONS' DEN Veitch s Victory It was an upsetting night in 1680 when soldiers burst into the peaceful home of William and Marion Veitch and dragged him off to prison for his faith in Christ. The children were terrified, but Marion, finding strength in the Lord, read to them from Scripture. Then as soon as she could arrange it, she set off to visit her husband. It appeared he would be removed far away and executed, so there was no time to lose. Marion s journey took place on a bitterly cold January day. The snow was blinding, and she had to fight the weather on horseback. Night fell, and she trudged on, finally arriving at the prison, half-frozen, about midnight. The guards wouldn t disturb her husband until morning, so Marion sat by the fire and waited. The next day, she was given only a moment with him in the presence of guards before being torn away. Marion went to a friend s house, wept her fill, and opened her Bible. The words of Isaiah 8:12 13 spoke powerfully to her: Nor be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled. The Lord of hosts, Him you shall hallow; Let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread. She rested herself in the Lord and cast her burden on Him. A day or two later, their archenemy, Vicar Thomas Bell, who was responsible for William s arrest, called on a friend. He lingered until 10 p.m., when he said he must be going home. It was another frigid night, and his host urged him to wait for morning. But Bell had work to do and victims to prosecute. He rode away warmed by alcohol, and his body was found two days later, standing up to his arms in a block of ice in the river. William was soon freed, and the restored couple worked side-by-side until William s death forty years later. Taken from, From this Verse by Robert J. Morgan Terry Park, Deacon 4
