Sunday January 9, 2011 10 A.M. Message from Life Church Boston In this message Pastor Rocklyn presents an introduction to the Sermon On The Mount. We learn that The Holy Spirit has been given to Jesus' disciples (and, by extension to us) to give us the same experience of walking with Jesus that the disciples enjoyed before Jesus went to the cross. In our prevous series on Romans 1 - 8, we learned that the law makes us conscious of sin, but it cannot make us holy. Instead, we become holy by walking in the Spirit (i.e. actively following the Holy Spirit's leading). Similarly, Jesus disciples grew in holiness, not by focusing on the even stricter rules that Jesus presented, but rather by walking with Jesus. Key Passages: - Matthew 4:12 - 5:2 - Romans 8:1-17 - John 14:1-26 - John 16:12-15

Sunday January 2, 2011 10 A.M. Message from Life Church Boston Praise the Lord! This is Pastor Rocklyn Clarke of Life Church in Boston, Massachusetts. On this past Sunday, January 2, 2011, we conducted a special testimony service during which five members of the congregation spoke briefly about what the Lord did for them in 2010. Since there was no formal message to record, we have chosen instead to present some highlights from the prophetic words and exhortations that took place during the service. Because of their personal nature, the testimonies themselves have not been included in the recording. Please join us next week on Sunday January 9! Thank you and God bless you!
