“O How I Love Jesus”1There is a name I love to hear,I love to sing its worth;It sounds like music in mine ear,The sweetest name on earth.Chorus: O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,Because He first loved me.2It tells me of a Savior’s love,Who died to set me free;It tells me of His precious blood,The sinner's perfect plea.Chorus: O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,Because He first loved me.3It tells of One whose loving heartCan feel my deepest woe,Who in each sorrow bears a part,That none can bear below.Chorus: O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,O, how I love Jesus,Because He first loved me.The Grace Memorial Baptist Church1100 North Eden StreetBaltimore, Maryland 21213Reverend Marshall L.

“The Heart of the Church”“May the Lord make you increase and abound inlove to one another and to all.” — I Thessalonians 3:12What makes a church successful? A big turnout on Sundaymorning? A multimillion-dollar budget? A state-of-the-artbuilding?We all know those things aren’t the criteria that defines asuccessful church. Whether your church has stadium-size crowdsor just a few in attendance, numbers are not the measure God usesfor success. He looks at the heart of the church.The apostle Paul planted an important church in Thessalonica,the capital city of Macedonia. He showed his desire for the churchmembers there when he wrote: “May the Lord make you increaseand abound in love to one another and to all , so that He mayestablish your hearts blameless in holiness” (1 Thessalonians 3:1213). With these words, Paul showed us two characteristics that arevital for a successful body of believers—love for one another andholiness.Congregations, church buildings, and budgets come in differentsizes. The true measure of success is demonstrated by followers ofChrist who love God and each other, and are committed to livingholy loves. Our challenge can be found in the words of the prophetMicah: “What does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to lovemercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8). —CindyHess KasperIf you believe on Jesus’ name,Then of His church you are a part;By loving others you proclaim:“We are the Church— ‘we are the heart.’ ” — Hess“A small church with a big visionhas greater impact than a big churchwith a small vision.”90th Church AnniversaryCommittee MembersSis.

The firstsix and a half chapters contain messages of coming judgment upon the nations,culminating with pronouncements against Judah and especially the northern Kingdom of Israel.Amos’s message did not make him very popular. But life is not a popularitycontest; it is a time to learn obedience to the Lord, walk with God and speak Hismessage regardless of the consequences.In or day of relative ethics and morals and when people are likely to refer to theLord—if they mention Him at all—as “your higher Being as you conceive Him,” itcan be gratifying to realize how much Amos referred to the Lord and “the LordGod,” which is a reference to the Lord as “the Sovereign Lord.”Let us never forget that our God is absolutely sovereign in the affairs of mankind.We many wonder why He permits some things to happen, but we know that it isnot because He cannot stop them. If in His sovereign will He chooses to permitsome actions of people, we know it is in keeping with His great eternal plan andHis holy and gracious nature.PRACTICAL POINTS:1. People will often become defensive when they are told about God’s judgment(Amos 7:10-12).2. Sharing God’s truth can cause us to be unwelcomed by sinners (Amos 7:13).3. We do not need a title in order to be called by God (Amos 7:14).4. God’s servants speak by His authority (Amos 7:15-16).5. We should not allow anyone to stop us from delivering God’s message.6. Rejecting the pronouncement of judgment does not stop it from happening(Amos 7:17).CONCLUDING THE LESSON:Our lesson is about an ordinary person, Amos. There were no miraclesperformed, no grand confrontation with the king, and no sweeping vision of God’sgreatness and holiness to expound. Yet Amos bravely pronounced the Lord’smessage of judgment on Israel because of their sin. The call was to repentancefrom sin and a return to honoring the Lord and serving Him.Our testimony to the saving power of the Lord Jesus Christ is always timely. Weare responsible to tell it but not responsible for the results of the message in thelives of those who hear it. It does not matter that we have no status or professionalqualifications that might cause us to be believed. It is the authority of the Lord’struth alone that counts.

The sweetest name on earth. Chorus: O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me. 2 It tells me of a Savior’s love, Who died to set me free; It tells me of His precious blood, The sinner's perfect plea. Chorus: O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O
