She looked closely at him and said\, “This man was with him.” \n57 But he denied it. “Woman\, I don’t know him\,” he said. \n58 A little later someone else saw him and said\, “You also are one of them.” \n“Man\, I am not!” Peter replied. \n59 About an hour later another asserted\, “Certainly this fellow was with him\, for he is a Galilean.” \n60 Peter replied\, “Man\, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking\, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord turned and looked straight at Peter.

A detestable thing has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem: Judah has desecrated the sanctuary the Lord loves by marrying women who worship a foreign god. 12 As for the man who does this\, whoever he may be\, may the Lord remove him from the tents of Jacob[b]—even though he brings an offering to the Lord Almighty. \n13 Another thing you do: You flood the Lord’s altar with tears. You weep and wail because he no longer looks with favor on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands. 14 You ask\, “Why?” It is because the Lord is the witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have been unfaithful to her\, though she is your partner\, the wife of your marriage covenant. \n15 Has not the one God made you? You belong to him in body and spirit. And what does the one God seek? Godly offspring.[c] So be on your guard\, and do not be unfaithful to the wife of your youth. \n16 “The man who hates and divorces his wife\,” says the Lord\, the God of Israel\, “does violence to the one he should protect\,”[d] says the Lord Almighty. \nSo be on your guard\, and do not be unfaithful. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jeremy Kwan on “Malachi 2:10-16”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\n  \nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nWMBC is… \n(Vision Statement) “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \n(Mission Statement) “Transformation”- Romans 12:2 (Vision Statement) \n– All are welcome at WMBC \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.

And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.” \nRomans 8:28: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him\, who have been called according to his purpose.” \nJames 1: 2-4:  Consider it pure joy\, my brothers and sisters\, whenever you face trials of many kinds\, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete\, not lacking anything. \nPhilippians 4:6-7: “Do not be anxious about anything\, but in every situation\, by prayer and petition\, with thanksgiving\, present your requests to God. And the peace of God\, which transcends all understanding\, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” \nLet us pray for cessation of current wars and forgiveness to reign in all our hearts so that true peace can be experienced. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship Service
DESCRIPTION:WARD  MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHRUCH\n“My House will be called A House of Prayer For all Nations”  Isaiah 56:7 ~ Mark 11:17 \nMISSION:  “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \nVISION: “Transformation”- Romans 12:2  \nOrder of Service: 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\n\n\n\nOpening Prayer/Worship: Worship Team\n\n\nScripture Reading: Luke 15: 1-31 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Parable of the Lost Sheep\n15 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered\, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” \n3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it\, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says\, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. \nThe Parable of the Lost Coin\n8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp\, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it\, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says\, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’ 10 In the same way\, I tell you\, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” \nThe Parable of the Lost Son\n11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father\, ‘Father\, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them. \n13 “Not long after that\, the younger son got together all he had\, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything\, there was a severe famine in that whole country\, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country\, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating\, but no one gave him anything. \n17 “When he came to his senses\, he said\, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare\, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father\, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father. \n“But while he was still a long way off\, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son\, threw his arms around him and kissed him. \n21 “The son said to him\, ‘Father\, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ \n22 “But the father said to his servants\, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate. \n25 “Meanwhile\, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house\, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come\,’ he replied\, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’ \n28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father\, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home\, you kill the fattened calf for him!’ \n31 “‘My son\,’ the father said\, ‘you are always with me\, and everything I have is yours. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jusuf Wijaya on “What is the Joy of discipleship?”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.

As he was scattering the seed\, some fell along the path; it was trampled on\, and the birds ate it up. 6 Some fell on rocky ground\, and when it came up\, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns\, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop\, a hundred times more than was sown.” \nWhen he said this\, he called out\, “Whoever has ears to hear\, let them hear.” \n9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10 He said\, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you\, but to others I speak in parables\, so that\, \n\n“‘though seeing\, they may not see;\n    though hearing\, they may not understand.’[a] \n\n11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear\, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts\, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it\, but they have no root. They believe for a while\, but in the time of testing they fall away. 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear\, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries\, riches and pleasures\, and they do not mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart\, who hear the word\, retain it\, and by persevering produce a crop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jusuf on “The barriers to discipleship”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:WARD  MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHRUCH\n“My House will be called A House of Prayer For all Nations”  Isaiah 56:7 ~ Mark 11:17 \nMISSION:  “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \nVISION: “Transformation”- Romans 12:2  \nOrder of Service: 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\n\n\n\nOpening Prayer/Worship: Worship Team\n\n\nScripture Reading: James 2:1-12 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy brothers and sisters\, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism. 2 Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes\, and a poor man in filthy old clothes also comes in. 3 If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say\, “Here’s a good seat for you\,” but say to the poor man\, “You stand there” or “Sit on the floor by my feet\,” 4 have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts? \n5 Listen\, my dear brothers and sisters: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him? 6 But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court? 7 Are they not the ones who are blaspheming the noble name of him to whom you belong? \n8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture\, “Love your neighbor as yourself\,”[a] you are doing right. 9 But if you show favoritism\, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. 10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. 11 For he who said\, “You shall not commit adultery\,”[b] also said\, “You shall not murder.” If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder\, you have become a lawbreaker. \n12 Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom\, 13 because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jusuf Wijaya on “Favoritisms”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nWMBC is… \n(Vision Statement) “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \n(Mission Statement) “Transformation”- Romans 12:2 (Vision Statement) \n– All are welcome at WMBC \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.  Invite families and friends. \nCelebration Zone for Children/ Youth on-site- Sundays @10:30 a.m. \nESL Classes: Tuesdays and Thursdays\, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in the downstairs Fellowship Hall.
