Faith and Love
Milk and Meat Sermon for September 8th 2013
Welcome

Try and imagine that we are all on a cruise ship way out to sea.

And hard as it might be to believe I am the captain of that ship. The ship is broken up into two major groups – those below deck (the youngsters) and those above deck (our senior citizens). Thus far we have all had a pretty nice journey.

But we’ve been in some high seas for a few days and as captain I can see that everybody on board (young and old) could really use a good strong dose of Dramamine.

That’s what our message is going to be today for Milk and Meat – a good strong dose of biblical motion sickness medicine.

I mean, being and studying Christianity, though in the end winds up being very simple – can become so turbulent and rife with waves of musts and must nots that every now and again it can be of some real value to just step back and calm the seas.

That’s what I want to attempt to do with everyone today – provide some biblical perspective of what being a Christian truly means.

It is timely because in our Milk study we have been talking all about being born-again.

And in our Meat study we have been talking about “continuing steadfast in faith.”

So I want to summarize what all of this “looks like,” and how we approach living it.
