It’s Father’s Day and the 1st Sunday of our 12th Season at Avalon Beach Church. This year we will once again focus on “The Apostle’s Creed,” and we will start with “God the Father Almighty.”
J.I. Packer wrote this about the Creed:
“Today, on our own turf, we face pagan ignorance about God every bit as deep as that which the early church faced in the Roman Empire. The ABC approach to explaining the gospel is thus not full enough; the whole story of the Father’s Christ-exalting plan of redeeming love, from eternity to eternity, must be told, or the radical reorientation of life for which the gospel calls will not be understood, and the required total shift from man-centeredness to God-centeredness, and more specifically from self-centeredness to Christ-centeredness, will not take place. All that the Creed covers needs to be grasped and taught, as an integral part of the message of the saving love of God.”
We are living in a rudderless society that has made truth relative and personal. Too many individuals are living “my truth.”
Let’s get back to God’s Authoritative Truth…let’s once again focus on this theme: “I Believe…”
See you Sunday, June 15th at 9am on the 30th Street beach!
