“The Outcome of Our Faith”
Second Sunday of Easter
Rev. Benjamin J. Wines

Today is the Second Sunday of Easter.

Rev. Benjamin Wines will bring the message, “The Outcome of Our Faith” Our Scripture passage comes from 1 Peter 1:3-9 and our Call to Worship comes from Psalm 16. We look forward to joining you in this time of Worship.

Call to Worship (from Psalm 16)
Leader: Protect me, O God,
People: For in you I take refuge.
Leader: I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
People: I have no good apart from you.”
Leader: The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
People: You hold my lot.
Leader: I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
People: In the night also my heart instructs me.
Leader: I keep the Lord always before me;
People: Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
Leader: Therefore my heart is glad, and my soul rejoices;
People: My body also rests secure.
Leader: For you do not give me up to Sheol,
People: Or let your faithful one see the Pit.
Leader: You show me the path of life.
People: In your presence there is fullness of joy;
All: In your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Question for Further Reflection:
The author of 1 Peter wants to make it clear that our salvation has already been accomplished.
How should that fact inspire your actions in the present?
