Worship: For Heaven’s Sake The throne of God is more glorious than human language can describe. Still, we have attempts in God’s word to do just that. Combining the language of Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Moses, and John the Revelator helps the imagination under the influence of the Holy Spirit to grasp a few details of God’s throne and maybe catch glimpse of Heaven itself. A portion of their combined description appears below. (Read more below.)
Wellness: For Health’s Sake Pastor Flemons, a doctor of biblical wellness, says a book written in 1890 provides good counsel to us even today. The safest course for everyone, it advises, is to follow good, solid principles, while exhibiting a noble, Christlike patience with others who are not advanced in their dietary practices. Avoiding extremes, while maintaining firm principles and Christlike love for others will be inviting to others to come to Christ. Extremes, like meals that are too meager, will never invite anyone to reform. In fact, extremes will drive people away from Christ. (For additional details, please listen to the recording.)

Special Prayer Include in your prayers today call-in listener 9275. Sis. Paula is requesting a closer walk with God. She also requests that we pray for the sermon to be understood through the thick accent of the preacher, especially for her elderly mother, who can’t understand the sermons and who needs prayer just to make it to church.
Remember to continue praying for the entire TOR broadcast family, that GOD will be free to bless us in the way that HE really wants to in 2018. Thank you.

Words of Encouragement
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doth shall prosper.
Isaiah 61:9, 11 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed. . . For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. (Also read SpM 58.1.)
For Heaven’s Sake…
“All about the throne is inconceivable brightness and glory, resplendent with brilliant colors, having the appearance of devouring fire, the color of amber, yellow. Eze. 1:4,26. Moses said it rested on ‘as it were a paved work of sapphire stone (sky blue), and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.’ Ex. 24:10. The ‘wheels’ were the color of beryl, a greenish blue, and ‘their feet …. sparkled like the color of burnished brass.’ Eze. 1:7-28.
“Round about the throne is a rainbow, Rev. 4:3, – a rainbow more glorious and resplendent than any ever seen in earthly sky. When Paul was caught up into Paradise, he said of the things he saw and heard, ‘it is not lawful for a man to utter,’ or, as Moffatt puts it, ‘no human lips can repeat.’ IICor. 12:4. And surely a study of Ezekiel, especially chapters one and ten, and Revelation chapter four, will convince anyone that no human language can portray the marvelous intricacy and glory of the throne of God. . . “
