MESSAGE FROM PASTOR SMITH JUNE 2019
CORNERSTONE
We are a gifted people. That is a foundational premise for
how we are to see ourselves, our brothers and sisters in
Christ, and the One, Holy, Christian and Apostolic
Church. We are a gifted people.
When you conjure up in your mind what the word “gifted”
means, I suggest that you not think “fortunate” or “elite”
or “privileged” but rather something quite stronger. While
a strong case could be made that Christians are, properly
understood, all these things what the word “gifted” is
meant to evoke is much more elementary. You are the
possessor of divine gifts! These are exquisite gifts. God
has placed these gifts into your very person. To be sure,
one can either cultivate or ignore these gifts, but we
cannot undo what God has done. You can be a poor
recipient of a good gift. You can have your eyes open to
the splendor of what the Almighty has favored you with.
One path leads to selfishness and shallowness, a pale
semblance of human potential. One path leads to
contentment, inspiration, and a genuine understanding of
the honor which is ours.
Our “giftedness” comes in the form of a humble servant.
The eternal Son of God laid aside all of His divine
prerogatives and took up a wash basin and collectively
washed the feet of humanity. His death and resurrection
have been placed within your soul by the washing with
water and the Word (baptism). Gifted doesn’t even begin
to describe who and what you are! Heaven is your home.
A place at the Marriage Banquet has your name inscribed
on it. The Lord’s holiness is your present possession.
Love cascades around you every time His sweet word
comes to your believing ears. What do you do with a gift
you treasure? You take care of it.
A hallmark of a faithful steward is to take care of what has
been given to him. We do this individually and we do it
corporately. Our church… we take care of it. The
spiritual life of our beloved congregation is taken care of
by how faithfully we honor His Word and incorporate it
into our lives. The physical life of our congregation is
taken care of by how we manage the physical property.
One can get an immediate impression of how we value
what we’ve been given, both spiritually and physically, by
coming onto our campus and participating in the Divine
Service. Our love for God’s Word is strong here at Christ
the King. It shows in how we treat one another in this
place – love abounds. It shows in how we maintain a
beautiful campus – truly beautiful. It shows in how we
align our service with God infallible word, speaking it
with power and clarity, bending our knees in repentance
and rejoicing in the forgiveness that is lavished upon us.
The life of faith is a beautiful life, and it is being lived out
in the saints of Christ the King; it is lived out in our
precious school; it is lived out in the ongoing dynamic of
our Good Shepherd who gathers His sheep and leads them
to green pastures and still waters. We are a gifted people.
Using His gifts aright is both delightful and wise.
Keeping our pride out of the whole thing is imperative,
which is why we “fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and
perfecter of our faith.”
May His name ever be hallowed among us!
Peace be with you,
Pastor Smith
Dearly beloved of Christ the King; The Lord be with you.
