Sermon: "Jesus: A Banner to the Nations," Part 2
Raising the flag on the island of Iwo Jima was a triumphant moment for the United States Marines as they prepared for an assault on mainland Japan. A cameraman snapped a picture of the moment, and the photo that resulted has become one of the enduring images of the second world war. The ancient Hebrew prophet Isaiah foresaw the coming of One who would place a banner in Zion that would attract people from around the world. A second "Exodus" would occur, and God's people would be liberated. Watch as Pastor MacLaren talks of this gathering of God's people in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ, a gathering that fulfills the prophets message and fills them with unmeasured joy. This sermon was preached at First Presbyterian Church (Orthodox Presbyterian) in Perkasie, PA, on July 12, 2009. For more about the church, go to www.firstchurchopc.com.

A Prayer to Help You Comfort Others - Your Daily Prayer - April 25
Have you ever wondered if there is any purpose in your suffering? We certainly don’t go looking for suffering—it comes to us because life is a journey through difficulties and triumphs. Sufferings are a reminder of what Jesus Christ went through and it is a way for us to encourage others.
