Scott Lawson (Guest Speaker), "Abiding in Christ:  Experience in Real Time".       1.  I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.  2.  Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.        4.  Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.  5.  I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.       (John 15:1-2;4-5 NASB)To view a video version of the Sermon please click on the following link:   https://youtu.be/HhErB_S-Aus(The audio version of the Sermon will most likely have to be stopped from playing or else it will be heard as well as the audio track of the video version.)

And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,  9.  not a result of works, so that no one may boast.  10.  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.       (Ephesians 2:1-10 ESV)

Dr. Brian Hill (Senior Pastor), "What We Believe About the Church", Modern Worship Praise Team (11:15 Service).       13.  When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”       14.  They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”       15.  “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”       16.  Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”       17.  Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.  18.  And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.       (Matthew 16:13-18 NIV)       23.  Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.  24.  And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,  25.  not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.       (Hebrews 10:23-25 NIV)       42.  They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.       43.  Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.  44.  All the believers were together and had everything in common.  45.  They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.         46.  Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,  47.  praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.       (Acts 2:41-47 NIV)To view a video version of the Modern Worship Service please click on the following link:   https://youtu.be/67f4FVCo4VQ(The audio version of the Modern Worship Service will most likely have to be stopped from playing or else it will be heard as well as the audio track of the video version.)

It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. 15.  Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.  16.  But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.  17.  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.  18.  And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.       (2 Corinthians 3:12-18 NIV)To view a video version of the Combined Worship Service please click on the following link:    https://youtu.be/4n_RVMc7RC4(The audio version of the Blended Worship Service will most likely have to be stopped from playing or else it will be heard as well as the audio track of the video version.)

Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise.  14.  Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15.  And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.  16.  Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.       17.  Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.  18.  Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.       19.  My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back,  20.  remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.       (James 5:13-20 NIV)

There were also other boats with him.  37.  A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped.  38.  Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don't you care if we drown?”       39.  He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.       40.  He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”       41.  They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”       (Mark 4:35-41 NIV)
