The Blessed Life Part 7 | Authentic Christianity Series

In our first message here from the beatitudes we explored the setting and the context of the Word blessed. Makarios=happy, satisfied, inwardly content. The first beatitude was poor in spirit! Thank God that’s the starting point! We are destitute, unable to provide for ourselves. We are in complete need of everything from God spiritually. We must recognize that we do not have what we need within ourselves, our humanity is corrupt. But the story doesn’t end with our corruption as we will see. There is an escape. 

We started at the ground level with our ladder of The Beatitudes—

Rung 1- Poor In Spirit

Rung 2- Pressed In Soul

Rung 3- Patient In Strife

The Book of Romans – Part 4 | The Epistles of The Apostle Paul

What is an Epistle?—One of the letters, written openly, adopted as books of the New Testament. Paul authored 7 canonized letters. These are the letters or epistles to Rome, Corinth, Galatia, Ephesus, Philippi, Colosse, and Thessalonica. 

What is an Apostle?—Apostle (Gk. Apostolos). Envoy, ambassador, or messenger commissioned to carry out the instructions of the commissioning agent.

Who is Paul?—This is the former Saul of Tarsus, a Jewish Rabbi of the Jewish sect of law-keeping, brilliant-minded, hard-hearted Pharisees of which we read so much of in the gospels. We learn of this man called Saul in Acts chapter 7, a man filled with rage and hate for the Christians. He hated what was being preached, so much so that he consents to the death of the first Christian martyr, a young man named Stephen.

Friend Day 2022!

On March the 20th, Trinity will host   a very special Sunday for all of our friends, family members and acquaintances as we come together to celebrate “Friend Sunday”!

This will be a wonderful opportunity for you to invite as many people as you can to be your guest on that day. Each ministry will be providing invitations for you to hand-out through February and March. Our desire is to reach into our community to the people we know and make a concerted effort to invite them to be with us at Trinity.

We will have extra seating that day as well as information about who we are at Trinity Baptist Church.  We will have a special gift for each guest as well as a gift for each person who brings a first time visitor. Children, teens, adults and Heritage Keepers are encouraged to invite people to church on that Sunday. Our focus that day will be a message of hope and of truth, pointing each person in the building to Jesus!

Start thinking and praying about who you can invite now!  Who do you know that needs to hear the good news of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ? Invite them!

P.S. On Wednesday, March 3, at both morning and evening services, we will have a special equipping seminar on, “How to invite someone to church and How to strike up a gospel conversation”

Pastor Winston Parrish
