Our Lenten series on the assurance of salvation looks tonight at the genuine assurance ministered by the Holy Spirit, according to Romans 8:16.

Texts:  Exodus 3:1-8b, 10-15,  I Corinthians 10:1-13, Luke 13:1-9

Our Lenten theme is "It is Well with My Soul", a time to examine ourselves according to II Corinthians 13:5, that we might have the assurance of salvation and joy in the knowledge that we are a fervently loved child of the King!      This teaching deals with lacking assurance; weeks 3 and 4 will deal with the genuine assurance which the Holy Spirit brings and week 5 with how to get assurance.

We have had a number of requests to post the video of the closing hymn from last Christmas Eve.     The story of how we began to ring the bell throughout "Joy to the World" on Christmas Eve is related the sermon for the 1st Sunday after Christmas (December 31).    Every year it is a wonderful blessing to hear the bell literally sounding forth a part of the message of that hymn:  "Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy!"
And as we go through Lent may we remember the words "He comes to make His blessings flow far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found!"
JESUS IS LORD and JESUS IS VICTOR!
