Quite sick today, as are two of the three daughters.
Watched Phil Ryken preach on 1 Corinthians 13, using the rich young man in Mark 10 as a reference point and example.

My Church was taught on Psalms 71, about how our service to God and our following him should never end, and stuff like that

We had an abbreviated sermon and a guest preacher becasue our pastor's new born was being baptized! And we also had a mother-daughter profession of faith where the two became members and also the daughter herself was baptized (at the age of 17-18). It was a very touching service especially for me because I was feeling very weak and fainty due to the seizure I had last friday and I am still recovering from the side effects.

Our new pastor preached on Ex 19.4 as the first in a series due to go ono the end of November entitled "Encountering God in Exodus"
Tonight a number of our young people who were away on summer mission teams reported back on what they did. We had people serving in Japan, the US, the Canaries, the Irish Republic and in other parts of Northern Ireland.
Very encouraging and thrilling for a small church to see so many people engaged in mission activity.

| | | Rev. Duncan MacLeod, originally of Carloway, Isle of Lewis, our minister at Knox Free Church, Perth.
AM - "Going to Jerusalem" Acts 21:1-26
1-17 Why Paul has to go away
18-26 his arrival in Jerusalem
Three great Christian characteristics prominent in this passage -faithfulness, fellowship and fearlessness.
PM- "Defeating the Amalekites" Exodus 17:8-16
8 the source of the opposition
9-12 the strategy adopted
13 the success that followed
14 the scroll of remembrance
15 the significance of the altar.
God promised Israel in the scroll that Amalek would be defeated and destroyed; so it is promised in the scroll/codex of Scripture regarding the enemies of the New Covenant people, angelic and human.

| | A Priests' Ordination Liturgy—Exodus 29:1–37
The Forty-Fourth Sermon on Exodus
The ordination liturgy reveals four doctrinal points (with appropriate "uses") about the ministry of the priesthood:
1. This Ministry was a Gift
2. This Ministry was Frail
3. This Ministry was Temporary
4. This Ministry was Participatory

I heard an excellent sermon at the non-reformed church 5 mins from my house. It was on the Perseverance of the saints using Romans 8:29-31 among others. It included Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, and Irresistible Grace as well, at least in drive by mention. I was very pleased by this because when I used to be a member decisions regeneration was taught. I am friends with the pastor and in discussions with him lately I found his doctrine to be much more biblical is why I went there instead of driving the 45mins to the church I now attend. I think he still denies the limited atonement but seems to understand the atonement as sacrificial for certain people however these people are a hypothetical people "whoever believes" yet at the same time he understands the Elect are the ones who will believe so its a bit of a mute point. Thought I'd share cause I consider this a great praise report.

AM Service Luke 21:1-4 The widow gives all, the others gave out of their abundance. A great point my pastor made was that "sacrifice without obedience is legalism," which I related to the Cain and Abel offerings as I thought about the point.
PM Service Romans 15:1-6 Discussed our relationships and reputations with our neighbors and other saints, understanding the NT impossible without understanding the OT.
