Today’s Sunday School Lesson
The Book of Jude: Contending Earnestly for the Faith
Verses 10-13: Apostates are nothing new
Verse 10: In contrast to Michael, the false teachers engaged in verbal revilings of things they did not understand. They only understood their own instincts, feelings, and animal desires. The Gnostics were so corrupt that they were not able to understand higher and spiritual things, becoming weak and ignorant in their understanding (which was the opposite of what they thought they were). Those who thought they were so spiritual in their use of angelic beings in their religious experience actually denigrated them.

Today’s Sermon
Mike Rogers is speaking for us today; we are glad he and Debbie are able to be with us

Scripture Reading
Psalm 102:16-17, 19, 20-21
When the LORD shall build up Zion, He shall appear in His glory. He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer. For He hath looked down from the height of His sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth; To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death; To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and His praise in Jerusalem.
We’re Marching to Zion p. 555
