We’ll be exploring Acts 9 and the transformative story of Saul, a man who once hated Christians but experienced a life-changing encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. Saul's journey from persecutor to preacher illustrates the incredible power of the Gospel to turn enemies into friends and radically change lives. Come hear how Jesus' love and grace can reach anyone, no matter their past, and how His message brings hope and salvation to all.

This week, we dive into the symbolism of the Red Heifer in Numbers 19, exploring how God provides a way to purify His people in the midst of death and defilement. In the wilderness, surrounded by death, God showed the Israelites how to be cleansed—pointing forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Christ. Just as the Red Heifer's ashes provided temporary cleansing, Jesus’ sacrifice offers us eternal redemption and grace. Join us as we uncover how Christ purifies us from the defilement of sin and death, making a way for true fellowship with God.

The story of Daniel and his companions in Babylon teaches us that no situation is too difficult for God. Even when faced with seemingly impossible circumstances, Daniel trusted in God’s power and His mercy. Daniel's faith allowed him to remain steadfast, confident, and obedient in a wicked land. Daniel knew that Babylon’s power was temporary, but God's promises were eternal. The "lens of faith" is about seeing life not through the struggles we face but through the power and promises of God. By trusting Him, even in adversity, we witness His faithfulness and wisdom at work, just as Daniel did.

Join us as we continue our series in the Book of Numbers, diving deep into God's grace and provision through His appointed *Ministers of Mercy*. In Numbers 17-18, we see the budding of Aaron's rod, symbolizing God's ability to bring life from death, and His appointment of the Levites and Aaron’s descendants to minister His mercy to a rebellious people. Though Israel’s failures were clear, God provided a way through the priesthood, a foreshadowing of our Great High Priest, Jesus Christ, the ultimate Minister of Mercy. Discover how God's mercy is extended even today and how we, as His servants, are called to share it. Don't miss this powerful message of grace, restoration, and service!

From the book of Habakkuk, we are reminded that God's children are to rest in His Covenant Promise, not in our surrounding circumstances. Habakkuk prayed that God in His wrath would remember mercy.

In this sermon, based on 2 Corinthians 5:12-21, the focus is on the transformative power of salvation. Bro. Duttry emphasizes that salvation marks both the end of our separation from God and the beginning of a new life in Christ. Paul challenges believers to live genuinely, driven by the love of Christ, not by outward appearance. This transformation affects every aspect of life, urging believers to live for Christ, serve others, and embrace their role as ambassadors for God. The key takeaway is that God's love compels us to action, leading us to share the gospel and live out our new identity in Christ.

If you're not committed to living for Jesus, you will crumble under the pressure of the world around you.

This morning in our series, Living in Babylon, we will see how decisions of Faith lead us to stand for right
