This past Sunday, Pastor Mark MacKnight shared a message titled A Word for FA. Paul’s one final exhortation to the believers in II Corinthians 13:11–12 is to EMBODY their faith: “Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice. Become mature, be encouraged, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints send you greetings.” He concludes with these words: “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” Pastor Mark reminded us that “the beauty of the church is imperfect people who embody God’s unmerited favour, unconditional love, and unlimited Spirit-life.”
