Love One Another Celebration Introduction:
In Acts 11, Peter must convince the “Chosen” (Jews), that he follows the Lord in communing with Gentiles. Peter does this through a “dream” that the Lord used to instruct him.
Psalm 148 is a poem of praise.
How do we explain to a non-believer what order and life we will experience in the place Jesus has prepared for us? Not an easy task, as John is challenged here in Rev. 21.
In John 13, we see how Jesus Christ showed unconditional love for all people. Scripture tells us of this love of Jesus that transcends all that we can muster in our daily lives as believers. Jesus does not want our piety, He wants us to perform loving acts toward others, even those we do not normally get along with.

Love One Another Celebration Scripture:
God has given even to the Gentiles the repentance that leads to life. Acts 11:18.
Praise the LORD! Ps. 148:1.
He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give water as a gift from the spring of the water of life. Rev. 21:6.
Where I am going, you cannot come. John 13:31.
Come Lord Jesus
James Tealy
performed by Redemption City

Before the mountains could lift their heads, Before the stars drew their first deep breath,

Before the ocean embraced the golden shore, Jesus, You were there as the world was born.
Prayer:
Creator of the universe,
you made the world in beauty,
and restore all things in glory
through the victory of Jesus Christ.
We pray that, wherever your image is still disfigured
by poverty, sickness, selfishness, war and greed,
the new creation in Jesus Christ may appear in justice, love, and peace,
to the glory of your name. Amen.
Spirit of the living God,
fall afresh on me.
Daniel Iverson (1929).
performed by Michael Daly.

Spirit of the living God,
fall afresh on me;
Spirit of the living God,
fall afresh on me.

 

Prayer:

Holy Lord God,
you have called us to follow in the way of your risen Son,
and to care for those who are our companions,
not only with words of comfort, but with acts of love.
Seeking to be true friends of all,
we offer our prayers on behalf of the church and the world.
Guide us in the path of discipleship,
so that, as you have blessed us,
we may be a blessing for others,
bringing the promise of the kingdom near
by our words and deeds. Amen.

 

How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

John Newton (1774).

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer’s ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.
Prayer:
Alpha and Omega, First and Last,
glory outshining all the lights of heaven:
pour out upon us your Spirit
of faithful love and abundant compassion,
so that we may rejoice in the splendor of your works
while we wait in expectation
for the new heaven and the new earth you promise
when Christ shall come again. Amen.
Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow
Doxology
Thomas Ken

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heav’nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Amen.
We are all stewards spreading the Word of Jesus’ blessings for His people.
