The Meaning of the Header Image

The header image is based around the open Word of God, the Bible.  It represents how all special revelation about God (יהוה YHWH or  אֱלֹהִים ELOHIM), the creator God of the Old and New Testaments is recorded in these Scriptures. 

This verse represents some of the means of grace the Lord uses to sustain the saints.  This is the Apostles' Doctrine mentioned in the Scripture reference in Acts 4:42.  [It follows on from the previous verse mentioning Baptism, a once-and-for-all sacrament (external sign representing an internal act of grace).]

The verse continues to list Fellowship; communion with the brothers and sisters in Christ.  Community worship (including worship together at church) is an integral component of Christian discipleship.

The Breaking of Bread, a reference for the Lord's Supper, is not just a memorial.  It is a powerful reminder of so many blessings the Lord has given (and will give) to us.

Finally, Prayers are our intimate communion with the Lord.  We offer up Adoration, Confess our sins, Thank Him for ALL things (good and bad) and Supplications (specific matters we seek His help, aligned with His will and eternal decree).  You will note these features' acronym spell A.C.T.S. - a handy guide on how to pray 😉


Collectively, all these means of grace the Lord can use in a believer's life to make them more Christ-like.

Blessings,
