The Purpose of Family
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 07, 2015
The purpose of the New Testament is to know that Jesus is Christ and the Son of God, and so we can live a life in His Name. The purpose of family is to raise children for heaven. Marriage was designed with all its potential to support that highest use. And marriage needs its own care, support, and guidance. The Lord ensures all people love their children, but only the spiritual can truly love their spouse. The Lord offers guidance to support the goal of a truly united marriage. | By Rev.

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 07, 2015
What is the Second Coming of the Lord? When the Lord was in the world, He promised that He would come again. In the New Church, we believe that this Second Coming has already happened, is happening now, and will continue to happen in the future. What does that mean? Over the next few weeks, we'll be talking about three aspects of the Lord's coming: His Second Coming, the Last Judgement, and the New Church. This week, we're talking about the coming of the Lord itself. What is the Second Coming of the Lord? And what difference does it make to my life here and now? | By Rev. Coleman S.

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 31, 2015
We make judgements about other people based on how they look, what they eat, how they raise their children, how they spend their time and money, and the list goes on. What should we do with these thoughts? Are they bad? People often quote Jesus saying, “Judge not, that you be not judged” (Matthew 7:1). But He also said, “Do not judge according to the appearance, but judge with just judgement” (John 7:24). Join us this Sunday as we explore with this important aspect of human relationships. | By Rev.
