Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;

let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of

praise! For the Lord is a great God, and a great

King above all gods. In His hand are the depths of

the earth; the heights of the mountains are his

also. The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands

formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and

bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our

Maker! For he is our God, and we are the people

of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

Christian Character Colossians 3:12-17

12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and

beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness,

humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13

bearing

with one another, and forgiving one another,

if anyone has a complaint against another;

even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14

But above all

these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. 15

And let

the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called

in one body; and be thankful. 16

Let the word of Christ dwell in you

richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in

psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your

hearts to the Lord. 17

And whatever you do in word or deed, do all

in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father

through Him.

Spiritual Maturity With Integrity

In last week's congregational meeting, we re-

introduced our Congregational Theme, Spiritual

Maturity with Integrity. Our goal is to grow in such

a way that would cause us to please our Lord

while we are transformed into His image.

II Peter 1:5-8 says, “For this very reason, make

every effort to supplement your faith with virtue,

and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with

self-control, and self-control with steadfastness,

and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness

with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection

with love. For if these qualities are yours and are

increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or

unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus

Christ.”

February Focus: Virtue

Definition: Excellency of Character
