ANNOUNCEMENTS
“IMPACT RETRO” SERVICE THIS WEEK (JAN. 13)Impact is going to have a little fun and get back to our roots a bit this Sunday night as we do our first ever “Retro Impact” service. Be prepared for a more “coffee house” feel as we gather around small tables, sing some worship songs from years past by candlelight, have some great coffee, and a few other surprises. This weeks topic is part two of John’s Baptism of Jesus. JUSTICE JAM ’08 - JAN 18TH Under the leadership of Jeremy Jackson and in conjunction with McGill Christian Fellowship, Impact Church is putting on Justice Jam ’08 January 18 at Saints Showbar at 30 St-Catherine Ouest. Doors open 8:30pm. The event is a hip-hop and creative music concert to fight against human sexual trafficking. Headlining band is Nomadic Mastiff. Tickets are $17 ($20 at the door). The event will help raise awareness of this human injustice and Christian’s advocacy to end it. Proceeds will go to the International Justice Mission (ijf.ca), an international organization dedicated to fighting for social justice in Jesus name. For more info or tickets, go to justicejam.ca.
BAGGAGE & BONDAGE WINTER RETREATCarrying around any baggage from your past? We all are. But in Jesus Christ, we can find freedom from the baggage and be liberated from the bondage that it creates in our lives. This exciting spiritual weekend will take place in February at a nearby retreat location. Time and place and cost will be announced soon. Get ready to throw out the Samsonite and break out of the manacles!
PARKINGWe would like to ask our congregation to reserve the parking in the rear of St. James for visitors and our families with children. Thanks for your help and understanding in this issue.
TRAVELER’S NOTESfrom Pastor Lon Last week one thing we talked about in our service was the tendency of modern preaching and witnessing to skip the issue of judgment, sin, and hell. We noted that it was the hallmark of the prophets, the Apostles, of John the Baptist, and of Jesus. I came across a quote in an email this week that I wanted to share with you all. It reminds me that this is not so much an issue with “modern preaching,” because it was written over 100 years ago by Charles Spurgeon, who is considered the greatest preacher of our modern times. He once wrote:
“It is absolutely necessary to the preaching of the gospel of Christ
that men be warned as to what will happen if they continue in their sins…
You are too delicate to tell the man that he is ill! You hope to heal
the sick without their knowing it. You therefore flatter them;
and what happens? They laugh at you; they dance upon their
own graves. At last they die! Your delicacy is cruelty; your flatteries
are poisons; you are a murderer. Shall we keep men in a fool’s paradise?
Shall we lull them into soft slumbers from which they will awake in Hell?”
- C.H. Spurgeon, bold mineWhen the “gospel” is presented without a clear presentation of the law, sin, judgment, and hell, the requisite repentance necessary for true conversion is rarely present. The result then, can be “false converts” who think they are saved, but are not. Jesus says in Matthew 7:21-23, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord!’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but [only]the one who does the will of My Father in heaven.” I don’t want to be any part of someone facing Jesus and hearing these words! Sorry this is heavy, but I am reminded this week that as a follower of Christ, it is not mine to pick and choose which parts of the Gospel that I like or think I should talk about. As a Jesus-disciple, I do what my Master did, and must model what I say on what He said. That being the case, mentioning sin, judgment, and their solution: repentance and faith in Christ, are my only option. It’s an issue of obedience to Christ, and also an issue of ethics. If the dam of judgment is about to burst, I must warn the people in the valley below it! And, as I said Sunday, we must all do this truth-telling in love, never in a judgmental way, because all of us are saved only by His grace!In Him,Lon
