The icon of the living God is beheld through God’s Word

Christ the Ancient of Days by Vetkhi Denmi

Today, our bulletin covers depict that which is written in two words at the top of the image. They declare, in Slavic, Vetkhi Denmi (ВЕТХИ ДЕНМИ). That is, they announce that the One pictured is the, “Ancient of Days.”
He is God the Father, the One Who, with the Son and the Spirit, has been declared to bring hope to God’s people for centuries. The image of God, that which was long ago drawn from today’s Old Testament Reading, is given to lead us to the Icon of the Living God Who is beheld through God’s Word….For more information, click on the title above.

For My Thoughts Are Not Your Thoughts by FairNSquarePrints

“That prayer helps keep this November Second’s Commemoration in it is
biblical place. Such prayers help prevent rightly confession congregations from
assenting to, or cooperating in, many types of false worship and practices that accompany All Souls Day. You likely know that many Tucson area residents celebrate the Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos on 1 and 2 November each year. In the face of that, we will continue to celebrate the biblical reality that people who have been baptized into the death and resurrection of Jesus, even though they may die, live in Him forever. Baptized and continually believing persons who have not yet fallen asleep in the Lord find their greatest communion with the blessed ones who have died in Christ whenever they
come to Christ’s Altar Tables in rightly confessing and worshipping congregations. It is there where those who are baptized, those who rightly discern Christ’s Body and Blood in, with, and under earthly elements of bread and wine, recline in His Presence. Through those means, the faithful are granted forgiveness and strengthening to eternal life by Jesus Himself. Further, we recall that where Jesus is, there are the heavenly hosts.”
