September 18: Witnessing with Authority

Worship with us and 9:30 a.m. this Sunday, September 15, 2024. Pastor Brett’s topic is “Witnessing with Authority” with scriptures that include 1 Corinthians 1:26-31, Deuteronomy 18:15-20, and Mark 1: 21-28.

Synopsis: God’s people often lived in, not just respectful fear of the Lord, but in terror of the Lord. God’s power and glory was seen as so overwhelming that they did not want to hear directly from God, so they asked God for a representative, a prophet. God’s people knew they couldn’t live without God, but they didn’t want to live in fear every time they heard from the Lord.

Our Sunday passage from Deuteronomy 18 tells us that God will send a prophet, an Israelite like them. God sent many prophets to speak for him, including His Son Jesus. Our passage from Mark 1 tells how the people responded to Jesus’ teaching and how He was different.
