CHRIST FINISHED THE WORK IN ONE SACRIFICE FOREVER (Hebrews 10:11-14)

Rev. denHartog is pastor of Southwest Protestant Reformed Church in Grandville, Michigan. I intend in the next few installments to write on the above stated subject. I am thankful for the occasion for new study of this subject and pray that our presentations will be of spiritual benefit for those who read these articles. The home is, we believe, the wonderful creation of God. It was created by God in the beginning when He created the world and all things in it.

We have been viewing the progress of the study committee, called the “Joint Committee of 24,” as it has been working in the past years towards a goal of eventual merger of the Reformed Church in America and the Presbyterian Church U.S. (Southern). Last time I called attention to their reports to their respective highest assemblies in 1963 and in 1964. This time I would present the report of this same committee to the General Synod and the General Assembly this past spring.

AN OBSTACLE ON THE ROAD TO ROME REMOVED 

Rev. Miersma is pastor of the Loveland Protestant Reformed Church in Loveland, Colorado. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost….
