  • Sermon Notes
    Series: More Than A Name “Walking in The Light” 1 John 2:7-12 This morning we continue in our study “More Than A Name” where we are being reminded that there is more to being a Christian than simply identifying as a “Christian.” There are many people who live in America today who self-identify as Christians. In fact, 65% of the US Population claims to be Christian. However, if that is true, then why does our land and why do our laws not better reflect Jesus? If we are truly Christians, then why do we still allow abortion, accept the redefining of marriage, pervert God’s plan for sexuality, and justify the sin in our lives and in our country? If we are truly Christians, then what are we doing to help the poor, the orphans, the widows, and those in society who have been forgotten and rejected? Sadly, the same sort of questions could be asked even within the Church today. If we are truly Christians, then why are we not meeting together to worship Jesus on a regular basis? Why do we come for worship only when it is convenient for our schedule and there’s nothing else more important going on? If we are truly Christians, then why are we content on being served instead of serving one another and building up the body of Christ? If we are truly Christians, then how are we reaching out to the sick, the hurting, and the grieving to be the hands and feet of Jesus? If we are truly Christians, then why is there so much self-righteousness, arrogance, and apathy in the Church today? Acts 11:26 tells us that the followers of Jesus in Antioch were meeting regularly to learn and to grow and they were first called “Christians” there.

The town of Eastport, in the state of Maine, lay buried under a deep snow that was newly fallen. The customary bustle in the streets was wanting. One could look long distances down them and see nothing but a dead-white emptiness, with silence to match. Of course I do not mean that you could see the silence--no, you could only hear it. The sidewalks were merely long, deep ditches, with steep snow walls on either side. Here and there you might hear the faint, far scrape of a wooden shovel, and if you were quick enough you might catch a glimpse of a distant black figure stooping and disappearing in one of those ditches, and reappearing the next moment with a motion which you would know meant the heaving out of a shovelful of snow. But you needed to be quick, for that black figure would not linger, but would soon drop that shovel and scud for the house, thrashing itself with its arms to warm them.

Distance dims the panorama; haze obscures the ragged gaps in the pageant until the long lines of victorious armies move smoothly across the horizon, with never an abyss to check their triumph. Maid-At-Arms, The 3 Yet there is one people who cannot view the past through a mirage. The marks of the birth-pangs remain on the land; its struggle for breath was too terrible, its scars too deep to hide or cover. For us, the pages of the past turn all undimmed; battles, brutally etched, stand clear as our own hills against the sky--for in this land we have no haze to soften truth.
