Philippians

ARMENIAN
CHURCH
Finally myAPOSTOLIC
brothers and sisters,
“rejoice” inOF
the PASADENA
Lord. To write the
same things to you is not troublesome to me, and for you it is a safeguard.
Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of those who
mutilate the flesh! For it is we who are the circumcision, who worship in
the spirit of God andInvites
Boast in Christ
Jesus
and have
you to
attend
its no confidence in the
flesh—even though I, too, have reason for confidence in the flesh.
LADIES SOCIETY
LUNCHEON & MEETING
If anyone else has reason to be confident in the flesh, I have more:
circumcised on the eighth day, a member of the people of Israel, of the
tribe of Benjamin,
a Hebrew
born19,
of Hebrews;
to the law,
a Pharisee; as
Wednesday,
June
2013 atas12:00
noon
to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law,
blameless.
YEGAVIAN
Yet whatever gains
I had, theseCULTURAL
I have come toHALL
regard as loss because of
Christ. More than that, I regard everything as loss because of the
surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For His sake I have
suffered the loss of all things, and I regard them as rubbish, in order that I
may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my
own that comes from the law, but one that comes through faith in Christ,
the righteousness from God based on faith. I want to know Christ and the
power of His resurrection and the sharing of His sufferings by becoming
like Him in his death, if somehow I may attain the resurrection from the
dead.

Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to
pray and not to lose heart, saying, "In a certain city there was a judge who did
not fear God and did not respect man. "There was a widow in that city, and she
kept coming to him, saying, 'Give me legal protection from my opponent.' "For
a while he was unwilling; but afterward he said to himself, 'Even though I do not
fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her
legal protection, otherwise by continually coming she will wear me out.' And the
Lord said, "Hear what the unrighteous judge said; now, will not God bring about
justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over
them? "I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However,
when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"
And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that
they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt:
"Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax
collector. "The Pharisee stood and was praying this to himself: 'God, I thank You
that I am not like other people: swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax
collector. 'I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.' "But the tax
collector, standing so distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to
heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!'
"I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other; for
everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will
be exalted."

The Holy Saints Forty Children of Sebastia
The Feast of the Forty Martyrs of Sebastia is celebrated each year on
the Saturday following the mid point of Lent. It commemorates the lives of 40
brave youth who chose to die rather than renounce their Christian faith at a
time when the spread of Christianity hung in the balance. In the first decade
of the 4th Century, the Roman Emperor Licinius intensified his anti-Christian
crusade, ordering renunciation of the faith by any army personnel discovered
to be Christian. The investigation quickly disclosed that a battalion in
Sebastia, who were recognized for their military prowess,harbored Christian
sympathizers.
Forty young men confirmed that they were Christian, boldly declaring
that although they were faithful to the Roman King, they also would remain
faithful to their Heavenly King who supplied them with hope, motivation and
courage. After various repeated attempts to convert the youth back to pagan
faith, the King ordered a more severe punishment. In the heart of the winter of
316, the forty youths were left naked, neck deep in the ice-cold water of a
lake. One of the forty could not endure the torture and ran out of the lake to a
hot bath provided to tempt the Christians to renounce their faith. He died
immediately after submersing himself in the hot water. But late that night a
light shone from the heavens, forming halos over the heads of the soldiers.
Seeing this, the security guards were thrown into confusion. One of them
declared on the spot the undeniable truth of Christianity, and threw himself
into lake in place of the apostate youth. The forty young men became the
most inspiring testaments to Christianity in the East, and a church with forty
cupolas in their memory would be found in Sebastia before the 14th century
invasion of Tamerlane. The forty youths are remembered in various Armenian
services as well as this day of commemoration.
