Originally from southern California, Pastor Peter graduated from UC Irvine with a degree in economics and began working in the field of accounting. He was called by the Lord into pastoral ministry and completed his studies in apologetics and biblical studies at Talbot School of Theology while serving as a Youth Pastor of Korean Westminster Presbyterian Church in Orange County, and as Executive Pastor and Interim Lead Pastor of Newsong Church in Fullerton, California. During college, Pastor Peter’s handsome looks landed him as the token Asian extra for the drama “Days of Our Lives” television program for three years. He loves to eat spaghetti, meatballs, Texas toast, and Dr. Pepper. He is married to his beautiful wife, and together they are now empty-nesters with two daughters in college. *Let’s prepare to celebrate and receive God’s Word through Pastor Peter! *NEW ECO Presbyterian ENGLISH CHURCH BEING BORN OUT OF THE KOREAN-AMERICAN CHURCH!

Pastor Chester has been assisting in their chartering process and it has now come to fruition! Praise God for adding one more Christ-centered church to His Kingdom expansion mission and the advancement of the evangelical, reformed, Presbyterian, and egalitarian witness of the gospel and holy Scripture!

[LORD'S DAY RESURRECTION SUNDAY] The Gospel According to the Acts of the Apostles – THE CHURCH IN ACTION (part 64): Come to One Accord: The Letter that Keeps Us in Godly Unity (ACTS 15:22-29) (1.) [v.22-23] After James relays his compassionate judgment rooted in the truth of Scripture and a love for the Gentile Christians turning to God, the whole Jerusalem Church concluded that it was good to choose trusted servants to send back, along with Paul and Barnabas, to Antioch, informing them of their concluding judgments, as well as ensuring the integrity and delivery of their written letter. *Are you in one accord with one another? Is it truly good or not good to you in taking part in unifying Christ’s body together under the one written letter – the Word of God in Holy Scripture? Have your judgments been part of unifying or dividing Christ’s body, sending or hindering Christ’s servants? How has God chosen you to be His messenger, carrying His letter/His Word to bring His unity? (2.) [v.24-27] The letter clarified that those false teachers of a graceless gospel operated without ordered authorization from the Jerusalem Church’s leadership. Instead, they said to listen to the true teachers of the gospel, Barnabas and Paul, alongside the witness of Judas and Silas, who risked their lives for Christ. *How can you clarify unwarranted claims against the grace of the gospel? To guard the purity of the gospel and unity of the gospel, are you risking all of life for it? Why or why not? Is Christian unity worth risking your life? (3.) [v.28-29] The letter closes with Holy Spirit-guided instructions of grace in love to help bring Jewish and Gentile Christians together, telling them to abstain from unclean and immoral things. *What is the Spirit calling you to abstain from? How can your conduct to abstain or to continue in them either help or hurt the body of Christ? [Korean translation] [주일 부활절] 사도행전에 따른 복음 – 행동하는 교회 (64부): 만장일치로 결정하라: 우리를 경건한 연합 안에 붙들어 주는 편지 (사도행전 15:22-29) (1.) [22-23절] 야고보가 성경의 진리와 하나님께로 돌아오는 이방인 그리스도인들에 대한 사랑에 뿌리를 둔 자비로운 판단을 전한 후, 예루살렘 교회 전체는 바울과 바나바와 함께 안디옥으로 보낼 신뢰할 만한 종들을 선택하는 것이 좋다고 결론지었습니다. 그들에게 최종 판단을 알리고, 편지의 진실성과 전달을 보장하는 것도 중요하다고 생각했습니다. *여러분은 서로 한마음입니까? 그리스도의 몸을 하나 된 편지, 곧 성경에 기록된 하나님의 말씀 아래 하나로 연합하는 일에 참여하는 것이 여러분에게 진정으로 좋은 일입니까, 아니면 나쁜 일입니까? 여러분의 판단은 그리스도의 몸을 하나로 연합하는 데 일조했습니까, 아니면 분열시키는 데 일조했습니까? 그리스도의 종들을 보내는 데 일조했습니까, 아니면 방해하는 데 일조했습니까? 하나님께서는 어떻게 여러분을 그의 메신저로 택하셔서 그의 편지/말씀을 전하고 그의 연합을 가져오게 하셨습니까? (2.) [24-27절] 이 편지는 은혜 없는 복음을 전하는 거짓 교사들이 예루살렘 교회의 지도부로부터 공식적인 허가를 받지 않고 활동했음을 분명히 밝혔습니다. 그들은 오히려 참된 복음 교사인 바나바와 바울의 말을 들으라고 권했으며, 그리스도를 위해 목숨을 걸었던 유다와 실라의 증언도 함께 전하라고 했습니다. *복음의 은혜에 대한 근거 없는 주장을 어떻게 반박할 수 있습니까? 복음의 순수성과 일치를 지키기 위해 당신은 자신의 모든 것을 걸고 있습니까? 그 이유는 무엇입니까? 그리스도인의 일치를 위해 목숨을 걸 가치가 있습니까? (3.) [28-29절] 이 편지는 성령의 인도하심에 따라 사랑 안에서 은혜를 베풀어 유대인과 이방인 그리스도인들을 하나로 모으는 데 도움을 주는 지침으로 마무리됩니다. 이 편지는 그들에게 부정한 것과 부도덕한 것을 멀리하라고 권면합니다. *성령께서는 당신에게 무엇을 멀리하라고 부르십니까? 당신의 행동이 그것을 멀리하거나 계속 행하는 것이 그리스도의 몸에 어떤 도움이 될 수 있습니까, 아니면 해가 될 수 있습니까? *KINGDOM EXPANSION RESPONSIVE SCRIPTURE READING & PRAYER – Deacon Gloria Gee will lead us in this week’s Kingdom expansion responsive Scripture reading and prayer. [[*Please rise, as you are willing and able, out of reverence and honor for the reading of the Word of God and praying of the Word of God.]]
