A NOTE FROM
San Diego First Church of the Nazarene
Our Mission: To Lift Up Christ
through teaching, preaching, and healing as we join Yeshua the Messiah on His Mission in the Global and Local Neighborhoods
Sunday, May 21, 2017
“THE PACKAGING MATTERS"
Text: I Peter 3:16
Scripture Text: I Peter 3:16 keeping your conscience clear, so that when you are spoken against, those who abuse the good behavior flowing from your union with the Messiah may be put to shame.
John Wesley's Notes-Commentary: I Peter 3:16
| 3:16 | Having a good conscience - So much the more beware of anger, to which the very consciousness of your innocence may betray you. Join with a good conscience meekness and fear, and you obtain a complete victory. Your good conversation in Christ - That is, which flows from faith in him. |
Speaker: Pastor Dee Kelley
- 9:00am: Classic Service in Ellipse Chapel
- 10:30am: New Celebration Service in FLC
