Is your soul blind?

  Welcome to the worship service of Urbana Yoke Parish.  

  2 Samuel 23:8-12 and 1 Chronicles 11:12-14 tells of swordsmen who stood their ground, defended that ground and struck the Philistines down.  The LORD brought about a great victory.

  2 Timothy 3:16-17 and Hebrews 4:12 tell that all scripture is God-breathed and can be used to teach, rebuke, correct and train in righteousness.  This equips the servant of God for every good work.  The word of God is alive and active.  It is so sharp it can divide souls and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.  

    The sword is powerful in the hands of a true soldier of the LORD.  Words are a powerful sword and can be used in righteousness or to divide.

Joshua Merrick spoke on how to have peace during suffering.  His two points are:  Rest in the good news that we have provisional holiness in Jesus and we are to be motivated to live practical holiness.
