Theme Bible Verses for week commencing Sunday, 29th June 2025
Theme: Light and Warmth.
Introduction
The light of God the Father, of Jesus the Son and of the Holy Spirit, represent Devine guidance, truth and love.
Jesus as light
John 8:12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
The Holy Spirit as light
John 14: 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
The warmth of God’s love
Psalm 84: 11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favour and honour; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
Warmth in Christian Fellowship
Acts 2: 46-47 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts.
Not warm nor cold (Lukewarm)
Revelation chapter 3:15 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold or hot. I wish you were either one or the other!
John 1: 3-5 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that had been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Believers are to reflect God’s light in the world; this can be done through, for example, good deeds, promoting a sense of warmth and fellowship. [The above Bible Verses are from the Holy Bible, a New International Version].
