Sohrab noted that when people try to take the place of God, they take the place of the devil; and that Jesus is really God, not the myths of the pagans nor a mere man like Caesar.

Watch our October 24, 2021 Worship service, sermon by Sohrab Ramtin

Watch our October 24, 2021  Worship service, including hymn singing, announcements, and a sermon by Dr. Sohrab Ramtin.

Sohrab preached from Mark 8:27-33. He covered the two confessions of the Apostle Peter and “Peter’s greatest commendation and greatest condemnation.” He noted that all falsehood is a blend of good and bad that looks nice on the surface. He also pointed out how the apostles ended up understanding the person of Christ at the time but not all of his plan. They were looking for his glory but not his suffering before that. There were many other good points he made.

First hymn “We Worship There”

Second hymn “I’ll Tell the World That I’m a Christian”

Third hymn “ The Banner of the Cross

Closing hymn “I Will Sing of the Mercies of the Lord“

Tom taught from the last chapter of Malachi (4) which is also the last chapter of the Old Testament. He showed how the end of both the Old Testament and New Testament teach of the Lord’s coming judgment, God’s coming blessings for the saved, and His genuine desire for all and call to all for salvation – “Turn” (Malachi 4:6), “Come!” (Revelation 22:17)

Miss Hannah K. Burlingham, a Plymouth Brethren hymn writer

As noted in a recent post, we sang, “Everlasting Glory unto Jesus Be” by Miss Hannah K. Burlingham. In researching that post, I found out that the author was a Plymouth Brethren. Of course, our hymnal has songs from believers from many Christian denominations, but I found this interesting.

Miss Burlingham (1842-1901) was raised a Quaker, but in early adulthood became a Brethren. She then wrote many hymns and poems, including the one we sang last Sunday.

You can you read a brief biography of her at STEM Publishing

(There are different kinds of Plymouth brethren. We are open Plymouth Brethren, also called Christian Brethren. Briefly, our beliefs are within conservative evangelical Bible believing Christians and if you visit, you’ll find our worship service very similar to other churches with a hymn singing worship service. You can read other posts about this What are Open Plymouth Brethren (Christian Brethren) – Part 1: practical notes for newcomers and What are Open Plymouth Brethren (Christian Brethren) – Part 2: A Brief Introduction)

Sunday Hymns – “Everlasting Glory unto Jesus Be”

Last Sunday, we sang, “Everlasting Glory unto Jesus Be” as the closing hymn of our worship service and before our communion service. This song about Christ’s incarnation, death, resurrection, our salvation and proclamation of the gospel, I felt, was a good transition between worship and communion.

Also, the music used is commonly used for “Onward Christian Soldiers,” too. This, to me, was a reminder that Our strength comes from the Lord; we are soldiers for the Lord by his power and the work he has done and does.

Everlasting Glory unto Jesus Be
Words by Hannah K. Burlingham & music by Arthur S. Sullivan

1. Everlasting glory Unto Jesus be! Sing aloud the story Of His victory!
How He left the splendor Of His home on high,
Came, in love so tender, On the cross to die.

Chorus:
Everlasting glory Unto Jesus be!
Sing aloud the story Of His victory.

2. Yes! He came from heaven, Suffered in our stead;
Praise to Him be given, “Firstborn from the dead!”
Jesus, meek and lowly, Came the lost to save;
He the victim holy, Triumphed o’er the grave.

Chorus

3. We in death were lying, Lost in hopeless gloom;
Jesus by His dying Vanquished e’en the tomb!
Burst its iron portal, Rolled away the stone,
Rose in life immortal To the Father’s throne.

Chorus

4. Christ is Lord of Glory, Sing we now today;
Tell abroad the story, Own His rightful sway!
Sing aloud; and never Cease to spread His fame,
Triumph, now and ever, In the Savior’s name.

Chorus
