Sunday Service: Pastoral Epistles - 1Timothy 6:3-5

Tomorrow we'll have our morning service to worship God together and to proclaim His Word in Budrio.

 

 

 

 

 

We are glad for the Lord's provision of the meeting room at the social center Magnolia, a well known cultural meeting point right at the centre of Budrio.


At 10.30 we'll start our service with our series on the Pastoral Epistles. With Matteo we'll engage with 1 Timothy 6:3-5 - The plague of the false gospel and the cure of the True Gospel! 
The essential signs of the True Gospel of Christ, and of true disciples and teachers of the Gospel of Christ, is that it comes from Christ and promotes Christ's piety! It is impossible to separate the Gospel from living the Gospel, which drives the mission of Christ on the part of the whole church of Christ! "But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world." Galatians 6:14
We'll have a children's talk where kids will engage with the same Bible passage.

For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many" Mark 10:43-45
