and works of Our Great God.

New to Salem Heights?

Welcome! We are glad youre here! We invite
you to seek out the folks wearing the Ask Me
badge. Through them you will find information
about the ministries of Salem Heights Church
and how to become involved. Please fill out a
Visitor Card and drop it in one of the offering
boxes as you leave or scan this code to go directly to our website
and fill out a visitor card. We have an excellent nursery and
programs for children newborn through high school. Any of the
ushers will be happy to direct you to the proper classroom. If
you feel more comfortable having your infant with you during
the service, the last row in the Auditorium will be reserved for
parents with small children. There is a private room for nursing
mothers across the hall from the Auditorium with a rocking chair,
changing table and portable crib. For your convenience, it also
includes a monitor to enable you to still hear and view the
service.

Giving Update
THE MINISTRY OF SALEM HEIGHTS CHURCH
The ministry of Salem Heights Church is funded entirely by the
generous giving of Gods people. You will notice that we do not
pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the
back of the auditorium. We have done this so no one gives out
of compulsion. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit
of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first
fruits. ...God loves a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7) and we know
He blesses those who take His Word seriously in every regard.
Thank you for prayerfully supporting Salem Heights financially as
we desire to reach the lost and disciple the Saints.

LUKE
Part 19
Luke 4:31-44

A Day in the Life

Presented by
Pastor Justin Greene
March 15, 2015

A drop of water seems tranquil when viewed from

a distance, but under the microscope we see it is
teeming with life. In much the same way Christ,
viewed from 2000 years away, seems unhurried
and tranquil. In order to guide our education and
inform our perspective, the great author, Luke,
puts the Messiahs ministry under the microscope
... One drop, one day, that we might be amazed.

REMEMBER WHEN...
Last Week:

Jesus told Nazareth that the faith of some outsiders put God
on display best.

THIS WEEK:

He (God) preaches from a synagogue built by a Gentile (7:5).

Last week:

He told Nazareth they would covet the work He would do in

Capernaum.

THIS WEEK:

He gets to work.

UNDER THE MICROSCOPE

We see the power of His message.

Once again the people were awestruck.

Once again there was a rousing response.

 He cares about your homiletics (art of preaching).

We see mad men set free.

A note on the reality of demons.

As faith filled the synagogue, wickedness knew it had to

flee.

 He cares about your heart.

 We see the mystery of a messianic secret.

God does not need the testimony of the enemy.

God does not need the testimony of the uninformed.

He does not want your testimony.

 He cares about what you hear (and from whom).

We see Him heal a mother-in-law.

WHAAAAT?

 He cares about your home.

 We see Him minister to the masses.

 He cares about your health and lack of hope.

We see His main point.

He left His solitude in order to serve.

 He cares most that you would hear of heaven.
