Verse 3 of Psalm 60 says "Thou hast made us drink of the wine of astonishment." It could be the bitter wine of discipline or the sweet wine of wonder.  Dr. McIntyre followed up under the sweet wine scenario. Have we lost the capacity to be surprised. We need to keep a sense of wonder alive in our hearts. Don't lose the childlike heart of being able to be surprised about the work of God.

This Independence Day weekend included this sermon on where liberty leads. Liberty leads to life or death, heaven or hell, service to others or service to self, satisfaction of life or surliness, deliverance or destruction, happiness or helplessness, purpose for our lives and our church or helplessness, purpose or drifting, power or puniness and in conclusion Christ or chaos.

Dr. McIntyre preached that from Genesis to Revelation we find references to "light." If it is Jesus there is no darkness that can put it out.

For this Father's Day message Brother McIntyre spoke on the example and nobility of the life of David. Here we have something to challenge the business of being a father in how we relate to our children and families and how we relate to our heavenly father. The vows and affirmations of David should be our standard today.

The Scripture for this evening service was on the transfiguration where Jesus' essential deity shown forth through his earthly flesh and the fullness of the Godhead was visible. Brother McIntyre then spoke on the necessity of Jesus shining thru us. 

As the service came to a close Brother McIntyre asked all the Deacons and Sunday School Teachers to stand at various location throughout the sanctuary and then asked the congregation to gather around those who had ministered to them. This was for the purpose of group prayer. Dr. McIntyre asked everyone to pray for the church search committee for it work and for what their work will mean in the life of this church so that Jesus can become the Christ to thousands and thousands of people.

Brother McIntyre began the morning service with two questions. "Who is the best Christian you know?" and "Did anyone think of you?" The Christian life is a life of development and growth. The tragedy is if you stop growing. So the question now is, "Are you the best Christian you can be?"

In this inspiring sermon Dr. McIntyre says, "The praises of the Christian life is one of the great and wonderful and sweet fragrances that we can present to the throne of Christ, the most wonderful thing in all the world. Do you have power? The key to it all is faith and in the exercise of faith we have praise. Praise to Him. Praise God from whom all blessings flow."

Dr. McIntyre preached that Christians are the eternal children of the King. You are worth so much more than you think you are. Act upon on how valuable God says you are and grow in a Christ like manner.

This message came from the passage on John's vision of the New Jerusalem. And as that city is designed perfectly balanced so does God want that in our Christian life. The time, investment, love, concern and thinking we give to God should not be out of the leftovers of our lives but equal to the amount of energy and thought and persuasion of ourselves and of our willingness to live life with whatever comes to the achievement of our goals of life and breadth of life and not out of our leftover time but out of purposeful times that we will make this equal - the balance of life.

Dr. McIntyre asked the congregation in this morning service, "Do you want a blessing for your  home, your house, your life, your business, your class, your church?" Christians need to remember that our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. It is not ours. It was bought with a price, therefore, honor God with your body.
