Fellowship and the Fruit of Peace

This morning, Heritage celebrates the glorious promise of our Lord Jesus.  On the first Sunday of each month, we partake together in the Lord’s table.  Jesus commanded us to observe this until His return.  We also have a carry-in dinner following the services, giving us opportunity to reflect and “discern the Body”.  It is a precious time, and it brings me great joy to think of it.  It is fitting that I will be teaching on peace today. Consider 2 Peter 3:13-14:

But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless…

Our hope in Christ compels us to diligence in this life.  May God grant His Church the power of the Holy Spirit, bring forth the fruit of peace and righteousness for the eternal praise of Christ the King!  Amen.
