LS Worship: 9.16.18

On Sunday, September 16th, Pastor Tony continued the sermon series in Luke. Worship service at St. Anne’s was at 6:00 PM.

Preaching: Rev. Tony Felich (Sermon Audio Page| Other Sermons)

Text: Luke 12:49-59

[49] “I came to cast fire on the earth, and would that it were already kindled! [50] I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished! [51] Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. [52] For from now on in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three. [53] They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.” [54] He also said to the crowds, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, ‘A shower is coming.’ And so it happens. [55] And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, ‘There will be scorching heat,’ and it happens. [56] You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? [57] “And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right? [58] As you go with your accuser before the magistrate, make an effort to settle with him on the way, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you in prison. [59] I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny.”

Additional Reading: Psalm 84

[1] How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts! [2] My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and flesh sing for joy to the living God. [3] Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, at your altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God. [4] Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise! Selah [5] Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion. [6] As they go through the Valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools. [7] They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion. [8] O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah [9] Behold our shield, O God; look on the face of your anointed! [10] For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness. [11] For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly. [12] O Lord of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!
