Habits - The death of Samson
Worship Service: Children & Adult - November 07, 2010
How our natural and spiritual habits affect our daily life "The same applies to everything implanted in someone since childhood. It does not become his own until he acts according to it, and does so from affection. For when he acts from affection that which has been implanted in him passes into his will. Then it is no longer put into practice by him simply because he knows that he should or because he has been taught to do it, but because some delight unknown to himself and so to speak his own disposition or nature lead him to do so. For everyone acquires such a disposition or nature from frequent practice of habit, and that practice of habit from the things he has learned." (Heavenly Secrets #3843) | By Rev. Calvin A Odhner | Ivyland New Church, PA

The Deceiving Path of Reverence
Worship Service: Children & Adult - October 10, 2010
The relevance of idolatry in our lives: who do we worship?. (Jer. 10:1-5; Mark 11:20-24; AC 1363) Idolatrous worships are internal and external; the internal are those which condemn man; the external not so much. The more interior the idolatrous worship is, the more it condemns; but the more exterior, the less. Internal idolaters do not acknowledge God, but adore themselves and the world, and make idols of all their cupidities; whereas external idolaters are able to acknowledge God, although they do not know who is the God of the universe. Internal idolaters are known from the life they have acquired; and in proportion as this life departs from the life of charity, in the same proportion are they more interior idolaters. External idolaters are known solely from their worship; and, although idolaters, they can still have the life of charity. Internal idolaters can profane holy things, but external idolaters cannot; and therefore external idolatry is tolerated, in order to prevent the profanation of holy things.

An Angel Protects Daniel from Lions
Worship Service: Children & Adult - September 19, 2010
The Lord protects us in many ways and from many dangers. "Then Daniel said to the king, 'My God sent His angel and shut the lion's mouths, so that they have not hurt me....' So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believed in his God" (Daniel 6:21, 23) Let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them. (Psalm 5:11) People who are strong in truths are kept safe from harm wherever they go. (Heavenly Secrets #6769) Good and its affection do not protect themselves, but are protected by truth and the understanding of it. (Apocalypse Explained 1121) Nothing at all could harm people whom the Lord is protecting, not even if the whole of hell were surrounding them, both from without and from within. (Heavenly Secrets #968) The Lord protects against all evils and falsities that are from the hells. (Heavenly Secrets #8273) | By Rev. Thomas H. Rose | Ivyland New Church, PA

Adam and Eve
Worship Service: Children & Adult - July 18, 2010
The fallout of eating forbidden fruit Since the Lord's face is mercy, peace, and everything good, it is clear that He never looks at anyone except with mercy and never turns His face from anyone. It is we, when we are wrapped up in evil, who turn our faces away. As the Lord said through Isaiah: Your offenses are what cause a separation between you and your God: and your sins hide His face from you. (Isaiah 59:2) Likewise it says here that they hid themselves from Jehovah's face because they were naked. Mercy, peace and all that is good - Jehovah's face - are what give rise to the inner call in the case of those who have perception (and those who have conscience, too, but in a different way). The qualities always operate in a compassionate manner, but the way we receive them depends on our state. (Heavenly Secrets 223-224, New Century Edition) | By Rev. Dr Andrew M.

Part 4-Making a Choice - Fire From Heaven
Worship Service: Children & Adult - May 02, 2010
Which choice - the Lord or selfishness - brings genuine love and lasting happiness? Part Four of Living Courageously: the Story of Elijah Correspondences in the story: Elijah: the Lord as to the Word, esp. the literal sense. Baal: falsity rooted in evil (specifically the loves of self and the world). Prophets: teachers, or the teachings themselves. A Mountain: an elevated, interior state of mind, esp. one of love or the heart. Carmel: lit, a fruitful place, known for its vineyards; thus the spiritual person. An Altar: worship (thus life). A Bull, lit, a bullock or an ox: good will or charity in outward, natural life. Wood: good works Stone: truth as knowledge or information. Water: the truth of faith. Fire: love. | By Rev. Thomas H.
