Fully Alive with the Passion of Christ FULLY ALIVE WITH THE PASSION OF CHRIST “If you want holy boldness, begin to cultivate someone with loving-kindness to the point where they ask, ‘What is your secret?’ Wait for them to ask you. Don’t preach at them. Let them inquire ’What animates your spirit?’ Then you can tell them. Love them. Be gracious to all in the City. The best place to begin is where you work. Take God to your job with you. Also find some part of the great problems of today and hold a personal conviction for justice and stand up for it. When you begin to feel the pressure of opposition, you will know that you are getting near to the point where Jesus Christ is making you His servant to witness there. Thus all of us can move off our dead-center cultural accommodations to practice creative love and graciousness as we demonstrate holy boldness. One reason some churches are less effective today is because they have lost the offensive ap- proach to a healing, holy application of the Easter message, ‘Christ is alive and at work today.’ ” ~Bryant Kirkland SOUTH HIGHLAND 131 PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH CELEBRATING OUR 131st YEAR OF FAITHFUL SERVICE NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE FROM, WE ARE GLAD YOU ARE OUR NEIGHBOR.

PRAYER FOR ILLUMINATION Rick Atkerson LESSON FROM ACTS OF THE APOSTLES Rick Atkerson Acts 5:12-32 12 Now many signs and wonders were done among the people through the apos- tles. And they were all together in Solomon’s Portico. 13 None of the rest dared to join them, but the people held them in high esteem. 14 Yet more than ever believers were added to the Lord, great numbers of both men and women, 15 so that they even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on cots and mats, in order that Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he came by. 16 A great number of people would also gather from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all cured. 17 Then the high priest took action; he and all who were with him (that is, the sect of the Sadducees), being filled with jealousy, 18 arrested the apostles and put them in the public prison. 19 But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors, brought them out, and said, 20 “Go, stand in the temple and tell the people the whole message about this life.” 21 When they heard this, they en- tered the temple at daybreak and went on with their teaching. When the high priest and those with him arrived, they called together the council and the whole body of the elders of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought. 22 But when the temple police went there, they did not find them in the prison; so they returned and reported, 23 “We found the prison securely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside.” 24 Now when the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were perplexed about them, wondering what might be going on. 25 Then someone arrived and announced, “Look, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people!” 26 Then the captain went with the temple police and brought them, but without violence, for they were afraid of being stoned by the people. 27 When they had brought them, they had them stand before the council. The high priest questioned them, 28 saying, “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,[a] yet here you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and you are determined to bring this man’s blood on us.” 29 But Peter and the apostles an- swered, “We must obey God rather than any human authority. 30 The God of our ancestors raised up Jesus, whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree. 31 God exalted him at his right hand as Leader and Savior that he might give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins. 32 And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.” This is the Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Chancel Ensemble ANTHEM “If Ye Love Me” Philip Wilby If ye love me, keep my commandments, and I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever; E’en the spirit of Truth. And ye know Him, for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless. I will come to you. *EPISTLE LESSON 1 Peter 3:8-22 Rev. Dr. Ed Hurley 8 Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love for one another, a tender heart, and a humble mind. 9 Do not repay evil for evil or abuse for abuse; but, on the contrary, repay with a blessing. It is for this that you were called—that you might inherit a blessing. 10 For “Those who desire life and desire to see good days, let them keep their tongues from evil and their lips from speaking deceit; 11 let them turn away from evil and do good; let them seek peace and pursue it.
