Last Sunday’s Baptisms
“The Wonderful Cross”
When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of Glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss, and
pour contempt on all my pride.
See from His head, His hands, His
feet, sorrow and love flow mingled
down;
did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
O the wonderful cross, O the
wonderful cross
bids me come and die and find that
I may truly live.
O the wonderful cross, O the
wonderful cross;
all who gather here by grace draw
near and bless Your name.
Were the whole realm of nature
mine, that were an offering far
too small.
Love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.
O the wonderful cross, O the
wonderful cross
bids me come and die and find that
I may truly live.
O the wonderful cross, O the
wonderful cross;
all who gather here by grace draw
near and bless Your name.

“In Christ Alone”
In Christ alone my hope is found.
He is my light, my strength, my
song.
This Cornerstone, this solid
ground,
firm through the fiercest drought
and storm.
What heights of love, what
depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when
strivings cease.
My Comforter, my All in all,
here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone, who took on flesh,
fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
scorned by the ones He came to
save.
‘Til on the cross, as Jesus died,
the wrath of God was satisfied.
For every sin on Him was laid.
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay;
Light of the world, by darkness
slain.
Then, bursting forth in glorious
day,
up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
sin’s curse has lost its grip on
me.
For I am His and He is mine,
bought with the precious blood
of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
this is the power of Christ in me.
From life’s first cry to final
breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of
man,
can ever pluck me from His
hand.
‘Til He returns or calls me home,
here in the power of Christ I’ll
stand.
No power of hell, no scheme of
man,
can ever pluck me from His
hand.
‘Til He returns or calls me home,
here in the power of Christ I’ll
stand.

Jesus’ Resurrection: the First
Day of New Creation
I Corinthians 15:1-11 and
I Corinthians 15:45-49.
Pew Bible, pp. 1131, 1137.
I Corinthians 15:1-58.
I. The Facts & the Truth about
Jesus’ Resurrection ~ vss. 1-11
* II. The Resurrection of the Dead ~
vss. 12-34.
* III. Resurrection Life ~ vss. 35-49.

Today’s Key Idea:
Jesus’ resurrection can
make all things new...
including you!
In I Corinthians 15, you
and I discover the
answers to three basic
“What?” Questions
about the resurrection
of Jesus Christ.
First “What?” Question:
“What really
happened that First
Easter?”
Second “What?” Question
“So what? What does
it matter?”
Fact: there are major
implications of Jesus’
resurrection!
1 Corinthians 15:45
“So it is written: ‘The first
man Adam became a
living being’; the last
Adam, a life-giving
spirit.”
Risen Jesus =’s Last Adam
Third “What?” Question
“Now what? What
should I do with
Jesus’ resurrection?”
Take-Away
Jesus’ resurrection: it
can make all things
new… including you!
Every head bowed,
and all eyes closed,
please.
“Lion Of Judah”
You’re the Lion of Judah, the Lamb
Who was slain.
You ascended to Heaven and
evermore will reign.
At the end of the age when the earth
You reclaim,
You will gather the nations before
You.
And the eyes of all men will be fixed
on the Lamb Who was crucified.
With wisdom and mercy and justice
You’ll reign at Your Father’s side.
And the angels will cry, “Hail the
Lamb,
Who was slain for the world. Rule in
power.”
And the earth will reply, “You shall
reign
as the King of all kings and the Lord
of all lords.”
There’s a shield in our hand and a
sword at our side.
There’s a fire in our spirit that
cannot be denied.
‘Cause the Father has told us, “For
these You have died—
for the nations who gather before
You.”
And the ears of all men need to hear
of the Lamb Who was crucified.
Who descended to hell, yet was
raised up to reign at His Father’s
side.
And the angels will cry, “Hail the
Lamb,
Who was slain for the world. Rule in
power.”
And the earth will reply, “You shall
reign
as the King of all kings and the Lord
of all lords.”
And the eyes of all men will be fixed
on the Lamb Who was crucified.
With wisdom and mercy and justice
You’ll reign at Your Father’s side.
And the angels will cry, “Hail the
Lamb,
Who was slain for the world. Rule in
power.”
And the earth will reply, “You shall
reign
as the King of all kings and the Lord
of all lords.”
As the King of all kings and the Lord
of all lords.
As the King of all kings and the Lord
of all lords.
