What’s new!
Well they say ‘a week is a long time in politics’! How true, since writing my last ‘blog’ we have a new mayor installed in London and throughout the country the mood has changed regarding the popularity of our current government. I’m not here to discuss politics, even though what happens in Parliament affects every person in the UK. Of course the ideal situation would be for the righteous to be in authority, this means in Parliament, our Judicial system in the Police Force, Education, Local Government etc. etc. even the church! We seem to have drifted away from ‘holiness’ and many of our churches have so embraced the world that you cannot tell the difference between God’s own people and the world. Yet God’s Word encourages to “come out from among them and be ye separate, touch not the unclean thing”.
This is the message Dr Albert Chambers has been encouraging the members of Paragon Chapel, our Hackney Assembly. We are in the world, but not of the world. Try to join us. You will enjoy the worship time, the fellowship time, but especially the Word of God, which truly is a lamp unto our feet and a light to our path. This is a critical time in the history of the church and it’s God’s Holy Word that will sustain us in all the troublesome times.
On Friday 25th April, 2008 part of the World Vision for Christ Team went to Rev Jim Patterson’s Church in Kilburn, praise the Lord we had a very blessed time, with new faces coming into the church. We look forward to being invited back!
Also I would like to remind you again of the new stock in at our Bible Book Store in Manor Park, East London. If you can drop in, we are open until 8pm Monday thro Thursday, 9pm on Friday and 6pm on Saturday. So even if you work late you can still make time to come along.
