(02/07/21) Dio Yang
Knowing the Time

Hymn: #2 Holy Holy Holy
Scriptures: Isaiah 6

Intro: Life is made up with many seasons (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8)

Main Points:

1. All men are found wanting on the scales of God, but God is almighty and forever in control
2. God is at work in judgment, mercy, and grace
• God’s judgments:
– To punish the wicked and to cleanse His creation
– To chastise His children and to make ready a kingdom people
• God’s mercy in preserving a remnant for Himself

• God’s grace in providing a mighty Savior

3. How now shall we live in our time?
   — Discerning the season
• A time to be strong — not to be shaken by circumstances
• A time to be set free — from the entanglements of worldly affairs
• A time to be filled — walk in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit
• A time to be faithful — serve in church and in the world
• A time to be hopeful — rejoice in the assured hope of the soon return of Christ

Speaker: Dio Yang

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

1. Bible Reading Plan: For this year’s Bible reading, we will be using the BibleProject | Biblical Storyline Reading Plan. With a reading plan, we can keep one another accountable in our Bible reading. For more details or to join the plan, click here.
2. Breaking of Bread: Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, our church has not been able to have Breaking of Bread Meeting for a long time. But we want to follow the Lord’s command. According to the Holy Bible (Acts 2:46), saints can break bread at home if there are more than two people in a household. When conducting the Breaking of Bread, please use unleavened bread (like Matzo) and grape wine to remember the Lord. For regional home meetings, each home meeting may conduct its Break of Bread together online. Each family or individual within a regional home meeting will prepare its own bread and cup to remember the Lord. If brothers and sisters need any assistance relating to the online Breaking of Bread, like how to host or participate in an online meeting, or how to prepare unleavened bread and grape wine, or needing Hymnaries, for English Group, please contact Brother William, Brother Caleb and Sister Jean. If conditions permit in the future, we can have a church-wide online Breaking of Bread. For information to access coming Sunday’s Breaking of Bread, please email William at williego@pacbell.net
3. Prayer Meeting: Our weekly prayer meeting is on Tuesdays from 8:00 to 9:15 PM. We are using Webex to host the combined session of the meeting.
