The Lord must be King of your heart. 11/7/21

Weekly Catechism Question: What does the law of God require?

Answer: That we love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love our neighbor as ourselves.

Matthew 22:37-39 - Jesus said to him, "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Scripture Reading

1 Samuel 12:19-25 (Samuel Warned)

-THIS SUNDAY'S SERMON-

A few weeks ago, we saw the elders of Israel demand to be ruled by a king like the rest of the nations (for a refresher, you can read 1 Samuel 8). This Sunday, we will see God provide Israel with a king. Israel's receiving of an earthly king was far from a blessing; for many many years, the provision of earthly kings proved do be a disciplining action from the Lord. Reading 1 Samuel 10-12 will help prepare us for this Sunday's sermon.
