We see that word "Ordinance" used in various places. It is used to describe historic decrees or, more commonly, to explain a new rule imposed by a state or local government. In the church, an ordinance is a biblical practice that is engrained in the traditions of the church as commanded by God. Join Matt, Jonathan, and Stephen as the take a look at what these ordinances are and what they mean for us as believers, in this episode of Blueprints.

Are baptism and footwashing merely symbolic? Kim Papaioannou explores their deeper significance as New Testament purity ordinances, cleansing believers and ensuring their ongoing status as clean before God.

In Illinois, as in other states, there are many towns and cities with what are known as “crime-free housing” ordinances. The idea is to keep drugs and other illegal activity out of apartment buildings and other rental properties. Critics say the ordinances disproportionately target low-income families and people of color while supporters of the law say the programs ensure safety and have helped revitalize struggling neighborhoods.   The 21st Show is Illinois' statewide weekday public radio talk show, connecting Illinois and bringing you the news, culture, and stories that matter to the 21st state.

JD Summers When Jesus established the church on the earth, he ordained two practices for us to continue in until he returns - baptism and communion. These ordinances set local churches apart from every other institution on earth, marking them out as Christ's bride, commissioned to make disciples throughout the world. Baptism points to a believer's experience of conversion and allows believers to publicly proclaim their willingness to follow Christ. Communion reminds believers that Christ has died for us and encourages us to walk in holiness, knowing that God has forgiven our sin through Christ's shed blood on the cross. What a joy to participate in God's unique ordinances in the church!

Francis Schaeffer said, “Ideas have consequences.” If people believe false ideas, they inevitably act on them in disastrous ways. The only solution to such false ideas is to replace them with the truth. Theology and doctrine matter. In this series, we will work through important doctrine for followers of Jesus to understand as they strive to follow Jesus. This week, we explore baptism and communion through the Doctrine of the Ordinances. Scripture: Matthew 3:13–17 (ESV) // Luke 22:14–20 (ESV) Speaker: Michael Bayne

7. View of salvation. The goal of Mormon salvation is notabout escaping wrath as much as it is about maximizing ourgrowth and ensuring our happiness. Salvation is finding ourway back to God the Father and recalling our forgotten firstestate as his premortal spirit children.Mormon theology teaches that we cannot receive an eternalreward by our own unaided efforts. In some respects,salvation is based on what we have earned, but what weearn is by grace. How this plays out in Mormon life may differfrom person to person, but they stress that the gift of theHoly Ghost is conditional upon continued obedience.Mormons must keep the First Principles and Ordinances,which consist of the Ten Commandments, tithing, chastity,and the “Word of Wisdom” which prohibits tobacco, coffee,tea, alcohol, and illegal narcotics.Temples are also important in Mormon doctrine and practice.Couples must be married in a Mormon temple to have aneternal marriage, and every Mormon must be baptized inone of their 135 (and counting) authorized Temples. Becauseof the importance of baptism in the Temple, baptisms for thedead are extremely common. Mormons keep detailedgenealogical records so that their ancestors can be properlybaptized. By one estimate more than 100 million deceasedpersons have been baptized by proxy baptism in Mormontemples. Those who received this baptism are free in theafterlife to reject or accept what has been done on theirbehalf.Death in Mormon thinking is seen as another beginning,complete with opportunities to respond to postmortempreaching in the world to come. We will live in the spiritworld, and at some point our spirit and body will be reunitedforever.There are four divisions in the afterlife. The Lake of Fire isreserved for the Devil, his demons, and those who committhe unpardonable sin. The Telestial Kingdom is where thewicked go. It is a place of suffering but not like the Lake ofFire. Most people go to the Telestial Kingdom where they areoffered salvation again. The lukewarm-not quite good, notquite evil-go to the Terrestrial Kingdom when they die. ThisKingdom is located on a distant planet in the universe. TheCelestial Kingdom is for the righteous. Here God's peoplelive forever in God's presence. We will live as gods and livewith our spouses and continue to procreate. This is the aimand the end of Mormon salvation.ConclusionChristians can be thankful for Mormon friends and familymembers who are good neighbors and share many of thesame ethical standards and moral commitments. ButMormonism and Christianity are not the same. Far from it.Though the language sounds similar at times, the beliefs arequite distinct. Mormons do not understand history, God,man, salvation, heaven, hell, the cross, Jesus, or the Trinityas the canonical Scriptures teach, nor do they agree with theconciliar doctrine taught by the one, holy, catholic, apostolicchurch over the last two thousand years.Discussion based on Kevin DeYoung is the senior pastor at Christ CovenantChurch (PCA) in Matthews, North Carolina and associateprofessor of systematic theology at ReformeFor more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

Luke 22:19-20.

Caleb Drahosh Baptism and the Lord's Supper are the two Ordinances which the Lord Jesus instituted to be practiced by His church until He comes again. In Baptism, the minister of the Gospel submerges a believing Christian in water in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. This immersion in water in the Name of God signifies and seals to the believer all the benefits and graces that are theirs in Christ Jesus because of their union with Him by faith. In the Lord's Supper, believers receive bread and wine according to the order which Christ gave them in remembrance of His death. This bread signifies Christ's body broken for us, and the wine signifies His blood shed for us for the forgiveness of our sins. In receiving the bread and wine in faith, the believer is spiritually fed and strengthened by participating in the body and blood of Jesus Christ.

Pastor Charlene teaches on the two ordinances for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ: baptism and communion.

The Texas Public Policy Foundation, an influential conservative think tank, notified Dallas on Wednesday it needs to repeal or amend local ordinances not covered by state law — or risk being sued. In other news, Robert Roberson asked Texas' highest criminal appeals court to delay his October execution date so the panel can weigh new evidence in the “shaken baby” case;  U.S. Sen. John Cornyn seized on an Associated Press story that Republican primary challenger Attorney General Ken Paxton, with wife Angela Paxton, claimed three houses as their primary residence on mortgage paperwork; and the immersive Go or Glow is a new — and fun — challenge for the bold.

Main Point. God saves by His power alone, not our strength, so that all the glory is His. Driving Question: Why does God lead us into weakness before He acts? 1. God Weakens Us to Display His Strength (1–8) 2. God Reassures Us to Strengthen Our Faith (9–15a) Two Observations. A. God's compassionate reassurance. B. Gideon's response. How does God reassure us of his promises today? Through Christ – (Heb. 1:1–2). Through His Word and Spirit – (2 Tim. 3:16; John 15:26). Through the Ordinances – (1 Cor. 11:26). Through His Church – (1 Thess 5:11; Heb 10:25). 3. God Delivers Us to Receive All Glory (15b–25) Takeaways. God saves by His power—not ours. God delights to use weakness—not strength. God alone deserves the glory—not man.

Baptism and communion. Those are the two ordinances of the Christian church. What is an ordinance? How did these ordinances start? How should we practice them today? Listen to find out more.

Galatians 3 is Paul's bold rebuke to any religion that adds effort to grace—and that includes modern Mormonism. In this episode, we unpack Paul's powerful message that salvation doesn't come through priesthoods, ordinances, or performance—but by faith alone. From Abraham to the cross to the new covenant, God's promise has always been simple: Trust in Jesus, and you belong. Mormonism complicates what God made clear. This chapter shows why that matters.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine. Join us for new episodes every Monday.

While there I was invited to serve on a three-judge panel that was given a mock trial/case to adjudicate. The specific problem we were presented with was a noise complaint. Aside from going over the trial and how we reached a solution, on this episode I also look at the related issue of zoning laws. Now, if you have not read your local zoning code, I would encourage you to do so. Not only will you see just how ridiculous it is, you will probably be surprised by how many times you have violated the code without even realizing it. Such is the nature of man's attempt to solve problems apart from God's law.And if you have not done so yet, please sign up to attend the Future of Christendom conference from October 9-11 in Lancaster, PA.

Sunday, May 25, 2025 – Today, we delve into Fundamental 6 of the AG 16 Fundamental Truths we uphold, which is “The Ordinances of the Church: Water Baptism and Holy Communion.” Both ordinances should take place after an individual experiences Salvation through faith in Christ, along with repentance and forgiveness, as discussed last week in the 5th Fundamental Truth – The Salvation of Man. These practices are direct commands from Christ, and by observing them, we obediently follow in His footsteps. They serve as public affirmations of our faith in the grace and mercy of Jesus, celebrating our relationship with Him. Water Baptism mirrors Jesus' death and resurrection; we are immersed in water and then raised up, symbolizing our death to self and new life in Christ. Our sins are washed away as the water flows off us, making us new creations in Him, free from condemnation. Holy Communion involves eating and drinking the body and blood of Jesus, as He guided His disciples during the Last Supper. As we partake of the bread or cracker and drink the juice, we reflect on Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and eagerly anticipate Him serving us at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, which will take place very soon. Come join us in worship and study.
