Vox Domini – The Reformed Parish

Vox | “Be Afraid, yet Don’t Fear”

In this passage from Luke 12:1-12, the Lord Jesus Christ deals with the subject of fear. The godless have every reason to wake up and be afraid—very afraid!—since they are living on heavily borrowed time. But even true followers of Jesus should beware of letting fear take over, because that very fear can turn God into their enemy. And yet, God’s children have no reason to be afraid of anything in this world, if they only trust Jesus and reject all fear of man.

Are you afraid? Of what—and why? Or are you content, without a care in the world when you should really be alarmed?

Join us for our afternoon service at 4:00 p.m. this Lord’s day (Sunday) when we will treat this passage at the Presbyterian Reformed Church, located at 1870 Route 50, in Tuckahoe. And please feel free to stay after for a shared supper around 5:30 p.m. We would love to have you there!

Vox | “Clean Outside, but Filthy Within!”

In this short passage from Luke 11:37-44, our Lord Jesus Christ condemns the religious “elite” of his day, the Pharisees, who were hypocrites through and through. He doesn’t pull punches on these notorious hypocrites. Do His words strike you? Do they resonate and penetrate? If so, perhaps the Holy Spirit is striving with your soul.
