This week we will explore the significance of the how we can delight in the New Covenant.
In the Tabernacle God commanded Moses to make the Ark of the Covenant which as we saw last week pointed to the good news of a New Covenant that Jesus has made.
What does this mean? And what is so significant about a covenant in the first place?
The word covenant defines an ongoing relationship with no appointed end. There is a beginning but never an end to a covenant. Rather than being a legal document, a covenant is a commitment to develop a certain kind of continuing relationship. By its very existence it implies a dynamic interaction between partners, a growing commitment. In other words new covenant builds upon the prior one—it does not replace it. Covenants provide a method for ongoing growing relationships.
God's New Covenant is the way we enter and experience an ever weeping intimacy with God through Jesus Christ.
Join us this week as we explore Jesus "New Covenant" and celebrate the Communion Supper together.
For logistical reasons the Congregational Meeting has been rescheduled. On Sunday March 17,we will have a meeting for ICP members to share the proposed budget, a ministry update and vote on Elders and Deacons who are up for affirmation. If you are interested in joining in membership please contact Pastor Drew or one of the Elders.
We are so excited to see everyone again at our monthly worship nights. Last month, we had over 120 people come together to worship God and thank Him for His goodness over our lives, our churches, this nation and our home nations.
" Overflow serves the Church by creating space for people of all nations to unite simply and freely in worship. We believe in worship, prayer and community and the power it holds for the local church and this nation. During our worship nights, various cultures, nationalities, churches and believers gather to worship God together with one voice."
We will be celebrating Baptism on March 31st and April 21st at ICP.
If you are interested or have questions about this important expression of love and obedience to the Lord, contact Drew or one of the Elders.
