PROCLAIM GOD'S WORD
June 26, 2022
In October, 1517, a Catholic monk, Martin Luther, nailed 95 Theses to a church door in Wittenberg, Germany. A church door back then was the community bulletin board. These 95 theses were supposed to be discussion points for debate on how a person obtains salvation. But since the printing press had been invented, this document was dispersed throughout Europe and ignited the Protestant Reformation in which people protested the abuses of the Catholic Church. The battle cry became Sola scriptura, meaning Scripture alone! The Bible was to be our guide, not the dogma of the Catholic Church.
In October, 1962, Vatican II began in which the Catholic Church dramatically reformed its practices. It stated the centrality of God’s word and for the first time the Catholic Church encouraged Bible Study by the laity. It also encouraged Christian unity rather than proclaiming that it was the only true Church.
Luther’s action in 1517 changed the world forever and paved the way for modern democracy by declaring that every person can be a priest through Jesus and have the right to vote. Vatican II moved the ball further down the field by declaring that every individual has the right and duty to study and proclaim God’s word.
Sunday I’m preaching on “Proclaim God’s Word” from 2 Timothy 4:1-8. We’ll talk about “Proclaim God’s Word Always,” verses 1-2; “Proclaim God’s Word Sacrificially,” verses 3-7; and “Proclaim God’s Word with Rewards,” verse 8. Paul will give us words that can change our lives, our families, our nation and eternity.
Saturday at 2:00 is the memorial for our friend, Darlena So. Sunday at 3:00 is our Business Meeting where, among other things, we’ll vote on commissioning Coleen Ishimaru as our Children’s and Preschool Director. Prayerfully attend and help us proclaim God’s word.
Love,
Jim Meek

El Camino Baptist Church
Life Group Bible Study
Mission and Vision
Our vision at El Camino Baptist Church is to help our people become true disciples of Christ in the simplest way possible by helping them Love, Grow, and Serve.
Love – Love God, neighbor, and the un-reached world
Grow – in likeness of Christ through the fellowship of the church
Serve – Being affirmed in their gifts and call, members take on opportunities to serve on ministry teams, our community, and serve local and foreign missions
Generosity runs throughout these as a virtue to endorse and give the church its mission.
Our Life Group Bible Study Ministry fits into the second of those components, Grow. We need to be immersed in the truth and held accountable for growing by God’s people in fellowship with one another in a weekly Life Group Bible Study.
As the members of our Life Group Bible Studies grow, we will grow in the other two areas , Loving God, our neighbors, and the unreached world, and Serving in ministry at El Camino Baptist Church, our community, and missions.
If you would like to host or facilitate a Life Group, please contact our Life Group Director, Carl Turner by email, carl@elcaminobaptist.org, calling the church office, (916) 488-1522, or click here to complete the Life Group Interest Form.
