His Way, and His Word”
Come
to the
Table
August 28, 2016
"The Spirit of the Lord
is on me, because He
has anointed me to
preach good news to
the poor. He has sent
me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of
sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the
Lord's favor." Luke 4:18-19 (NKJ)
It is the vision of Mount Olive to be
a church that is intentional in its
efforts to identify and meet the needs
of broken, hurt and oppressed people
in the greater Glen Allen area through
the message and ministry of Jesus
Christ.

MOBC FAITH DEVELOPMENT !!
KINGDOMTIDE
August 28 — November 26, 2016
The Pulpit Attire is Green.
We are in the season of KINGDOMTIDE, the
color of KINGDOMTIDE is GREEN. The color GREEN symbolizes
growth. KINGDOMTIDE runs from August 28 until Advent. KINGDOMTIDE is the newest of the seasons, dating no farther back than the
late 1930’s. KINGDOMTIDE gives place for due attention to the eternal
presence of Christ and His Kingship —with the parallel emphasis upon
our stewardship. Its emphasis on the kingship of Christ and His kingdom,
challenges us in our daily lives and in every area of our existence.
Theme For This Quarter:
“TOWARD A NEW CREATION”
The study of this quarter is primarily from the Old Testament book of Zephaniah and the New Testament book of
Romans. The three units follow the theme of God’s New Creation as it
pertains to our new life in Christ.
UNIT 3 -- LIFE ON GOD’S TERMS
The four lessons in this unit focus on the benefits and demands of living
a life for God as a new creation in Christ.
Perhaps while reading the announcements you realized
you have never made a Christian commitment. Don’t delay that decision! We encourage you to embrace God’s
love today and receive the salvation that only Jesus
Christ gives. Here are five simple steps you can take to
find assurance of salvation.
1. Recognize your need. The Bible tell us that “all
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Rom.
3:23) All of us are sinners, and we must admit our
need for a Savior.
2. Repent of your sins. Our sins create a wall that
separates us from God. By confessing our sins and
turning from them, you will find forgiveness. The
Bible promises: “If we confess our sins, He is faithful
and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
September 4, 2016
NEXT WEEK’S LESSON:
“The Peaceful Kingdom”
Isaiah 11:1-9
We live in a world full of divisions, hatred, trouble, and chaos. Will we
ever experience harmony? Isaiah’s prophecy reveals that the sovereign
God will bring about a world of peace.

MONDAY: God’s Offer to Solomon
1 Kings 3:3-9

TUESDAY: God’s Pleased with Solomon’s
Requests 1 Kings 3:10-15

Sermon Highlights
HOW TO ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST
INTO YOUR HEART
August 21, 2016
3. Believe in Jesus. God sent His only Son to die so
that He could pay for all our sins. Put your faith in
Him and believe in His power to save you. The Bible
says, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His
only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him
shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
4. Receive His salvation. God has given us a great gift
in His Son, but we must receive His gift. Thank Him
for loving and forgiving you, and ask Him to live in
your heart. His promise to us is clear: “But as many
as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).
5. Confess your faith. The Bible assures us: “If
you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and
believe in your heart that God raised Him from
the dead, you will be saved” (Rom. 10:9). You
have been born again and are now part of God’s
family. Tell some one else what Jesus has done
in your life!
