2) What are some ways that this (question 1) applies to us today besides not worshiping goat demons?

Three Aspects of the Christian Life Showing that We Never Leave Faith

Orthodox Catechism Questions 139-140
Q. 139. Why does Christ teach us to call God our Father at the beginning of this prayer? A. That He might stir up in us such a reverence and confidence in God as is proper for the sons of God. This must be the ground and foundation of our prayer; that is, that God through Christ is made our Father and will much less deny us these things which we ask of Him with a true faith than our earthly parents deny us earthly things.
Q. 140. Why are the words “who is in heaven” added? A. That we conceive not basely nor mundanely of God’s heavenly majesty, and also that we look for and expect from His omnipotence whatever things are necessary for our soul and body.

Title: Perfect Justice: Life for Life

4) What are some of the ways that we can avoid cursing our parents?
5) Why is it wrong to steal a man?
6) Was Jesus overruling the justice principle of "eye for eye" in Matthew 5:38-39 when he told us to turn the other cheek?
7) How does the case of an ox goring a man point to our need for Christ?
8) How does this passage point us to Christ?
Afternoon Service at 4:00 PM
Orthodox Catechism Questions 136-138
Q. 136. What are those things which God commands us to ask of Him? A. All things necessary both for soul and body, which our Lord Jesus Christ has comprised in the prayer He taught us.
Q. 137. What prayer is that? A. Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
Q. 138. Are Christians tied to this very form of prayer? A. We are not. Our Lord here delivers to His Church a brief summary of those things which we are to ask of God. Christ will have us also to ask for special things or particular benefits. The form prescribed is nothing else but a set of headings or general categories, wherein all benefits both bodily and spiritual are implied. But all particulars of prayer must agree and correspond with this general form. We are not tied to this form, as appears from James 1:5, where the Apostle exhorts the saints, if anyone lacks wisdom they should ask of God who gives to all liberally. Though these words are not in the form of prayer particularly expressed in the Lord’s prayer, they are implied. Besides, we have examples of prayer both in the Old and New Testament, which are not in the form here expressed, though all they asked was comprehended in this prayer. Therefore, the form of prayer delivered to us by Christ is a thing indifferent.

Orthodox Catechism Questions 135
Q. 135. What is required for our prayers to please God and be heard by Him? A. That we ask of the only true God, who has manifested Himself in His word (a), all things which He has commanded to be asked of Him (b). This is to be done with a true affection and desire of our heart (c). As well, we are, through an inward feeling of our need and misery, to cast ourselves prostrate in the presence of His divine majesty (d) and build ourselves on the sure foundation that we, though unworthy, yet for Christ’s sake, are certainly heard by God (e), even as He has promised us in His word (f). (a) John 4:22-24. (b) Rom. 8:26; 1 John 5:14. (c) Psa. 145:18. (d) Psa. 2:11; 34:19; Isa. 66:2. (e) Psa. 143:1; Rom. 8:15-16; 10:13-17; James 1:6ff. (f) Dan. 9:17-19; John 14:13; 15:16; 16:23.

Outline: Three Questions in Regards to Coveting
1) What is it?
2) Where does it stem from?
3) How is it remedied?
Questions:
1) Why do we need this commandment when it seems that the other commandments already address coveting (e.g: do not commit adultery - desire for neighbor's wife; do not steal - desire for neighbor's property)?
2) What is coveting and what are some of the ways in which it is manifested?
3) Is it bad to desire things we do not presently have? When does it become a bad thing?
4) Why do we covet? Where does coveting come from? (hint: think of Genesis 3)
5) How does the gospel remedy a covetous heart?

Orthodox Catechism Questions 132-133
Q. 132. Can they who are converted to God observe and keep these commandments perfectly?
A. No. Even the holiest men, as long as they live, have only small beginnings in obedience (a). Yet they begin with an unfeigned and earnest desire and endeavor to live not according to some, but all the commandments of God (b). (a) Eccl. 7:22; Rom. 7:14-15; James 2:10. (b) Rom. 7:22.
Q. 133. Why does God require His law to be preached exactly and severely, knowing that there is no man in this life able to keep it?
A. First, that we increasingly acknowledge the great proneness of our nature to sin and heartily desire forgiveness and righteousness in Christ (a). Second, that we do this always and so implore and crave from the Father the grace of His Holy Spirit (b). It is by this grace that we may be renewed, day by day, to the image and likeness of God (c). Once we depart out of this life, we will attain to that joyful perfection which is promised to us (d). (a) Rom. 7:24; 1 John 1:9. (b) Psa. 22:5; Luke 11:13; Eph. 3:16. (c) 1 Cor. 9:24-27; Eph. 4:17-24; Phil. 3:12-14; Col. 3:5-14. (d) Phil. 3:20-21; 1 John 3:2; Jude 24-25.

Title: A Time to Kill: The Death Penalty, Self-Defense, and War
(Orthodox Catechism Questions 118-121 - Part II)
Q. 118. What is the sixth commandment?
A. You shall do no murder.
Q. 119. What does God require in the sixth commandment?
A. That neither in thought or in gesture, much less in deed, I reproach, or hate, or harm, or kill my neighbor, either by myself, or by another and that I cast away all desire of revenge (a). Furthermore, that I do not hurt myself or knowingly cast myself into any danger (b). God has armed the magistrate with the sword as a deterrent to murder (c).
Q. 120. But does this commandment forbid murder only?
A. No. In forbidding murder, God further teaches that He hates the root, namely, anger (a), envy (b), hatred (c), and desire for revenge, accounting them all as murder (d).
Q. 121. Does this commandment only require that we harm no one?
A. No. When God condemns anger, envy, and hatred, He requires that we love our neighbor as ourselves (a). We must use tenderness, courtesy, patience, and mercy towards him (b). We must also protect him from whatever may be hurtful to him, as much as we are able (c). Indeed, we must be so affected in mind that we do not hesitate to do good even to our enemies (d).

Orthodox Catechism Questions 118-121 - Part I: The Sixth Commandment
Q. 118. What is the sixth commandment?
A. You shall do no murder.
Q. 119. What does God require in the sixth commandment?
A. That neither in thought or in gesture, much less in deed, I reproach, or hate, or harm, or kill my neighbor, either by myself, or by another and that I cast away all desire of revenge (a). Furthermore, that I do not hurt myself or knowingly cast myself into any danger (b). God has armed the magistrate with the sword as a deterrent to murder (c).
Q. 120. But does this commandment forbid murder only?
A. No. In forbidding murder, God further teaches that He hates the root, namely, anger (a), envy (b), hatred (c), and desire for revenge, accounting them all as murder (d).
Q. 121. Does this commandment only require that we harm no one?
A. No. When God condemns anger, envy, and hatred, He requires that we love our neighbor as ourselves (a). We must use tenderness, courtesy, patience, and mercy towards him (b). We must also protect him from whatever may be hurtful to him, as much as we are able (c). Indeed, we must be so affected in mind that we do not hesitate to do good even to our enemies (d).

Union with Christ
What does it mean to be a Christian? Common answers to this question can be contradictory and confusing. Is Christianity simply an ethical system or a set of doctrinal beliefs? In Union with Christ, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson surveys one of the Apostle Paul’s favorite phrases to describe the essence of the Christian life: being “in Christ.” This twelve-part teaching series explores what it means to be “in Christ” and how these two simple words can reshape our entire existence.

Sermon: Orthodox Catechism Questions 114-115 Part IV - How Do We Observe the Sabbath?
Q. 114. What is the fourth commandment?
A. Remember that you keep holy the Sabbath Day. You shall labor six days and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you should do no manner of work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your man-servant, nor your maid-servant, nor your cattle, nor the stranger that is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day, and hallowed it.
Q. 115. What are we taught by the fourth commandment?
A. That one day in seven be kept in the worship of God. Under the Old Testament this was the last day of the week, but under the gospel changed to the first day of the week. The Lord’s Day is to be spent in private and public devotion, hearing the word diligently, practicing the gospel-sacraments zealously, doing deeds of charity conscionably, and resting from servile works, except for cases of necessity. This was the laudable practice of the holy Apostles, who best knew the mind of Christ as to the time of worship. We do not find in all the New Testament that any gospel church in the Apostle’s time set any other day apart solemnly to worship God but the first day. This they were right to do. For if Israel, the natural seed of Abraham, was to keep the seventh day to keep up the remembrance of their deliverance out of temporal bondage, how much more are we bound to keep the first day in remembrance of Christ’s deliverance of us from eternal bondage.

Sermon: Orthodox Catechism Questions 109-113 (Third Commandment)
Q. 109. What is the third commandment?
A. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that takes His name in vain.
Q. 110. What does God require in the third commandment?
A. We must not use His name despitefully or irreverently, not only by cursing or false swearing (a), but also by unnecessary oaths (b). We must not be partakers of these horrible sins in others either by silence or consent. We must always use the sacred and holy name of God with great devotion and reverence (c), that He may be worshipped and honored by us with a true and steadfast confession and invocation of His name (d). This should be the case in all our words and actions (e). (a) Lev. 19:12; 24:11ff. (b) Matt. 5:37; James 5:12. (c) 1 Tim. 2:8. (d) Matt. 10:32. (e) Rom. 2:24; Col. 3:17; 1 Tim. 6:1.
Q. 111. Is taking God’s name in vain by swearing or cursing so grievous a sin that God is also angry with those who do not forbid or hinder it with all their ability?
A. Surely it is most grievous (a). There is no sin greater or more offending to God than the despising of His sacred name, wherefore He even commanded this sin to be punished with death (b).
Q. 112. May a man swear reverently by the name of God?
A. Yes, he may when lawful magistrates or necessity require it. By this means the faith and truth of any man, or thing to be ratified and established, both the glory of God may be advanced and the safety of others procured. This kind of swearing is ordained by God’s word (a), and therefore was well-used by the fathers both in the Old and New Testament (b). (a) Deut. 6:13; 10:20; Isa. 48:1; Heb. 6:16. (b) Gen. 21:24; 31; Josh. 9:15, 19; 2 Sam. 3:35; 1 Kings 1:29; Rom. 1:9.
Q. 113. Is it lawful to swear by saints or other creatures?
A. No. A lawful oath is an invocation of God, whereby we desire that He, as the only searcher of hearts, bear witness to the truth and punish the swearer if he knowingly swears falsely (a). No creature deserves this honor (b). (a) 2 Cor. 1:23. (b) Matt. 5:34-36; James 5:12.

Q. 108. But may not images be tolerated in churches, which may serve as books to the common people?
A. No, for that would make us wiser than God, who will have His church to be taught by the lively preaching of His word, and not with speechless images.

Sermon: Orthodox Catechism Questions 99-101
Q. 99. What is the preface to the Ten Commandments? A. I am Jehovah, the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Q. 100. What do we learn from the preface? A. Three things: first, He shows to whom the right of all rule belongs, that is, to God Himself, for I am (says He) Jehovah; secondly, He says, He is the God of His people, that through the promise of His bountifulness He might allure them to obey Him; and thirdly, He says, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, as if He should say, I am He who has manifested Myself to you and bestowed all those blessings upon you, therefore you are bound to show thankfulness and obedience to Me (a). (a) Exod. 20:2.
Q. 101. Do these things belong to us? A. They do, because they figuratively comprehend and imply all the deliverances of the Church; and further, this was a type of our wonderful deliverance achieved by Christ.

Three Uses of the Law
Morning Service at 10:30 AM
Title: The Battle between God and Satan - Part V: The Passover
Text: Exodus 11:1-12:28
Outline: Three Important Lessons we Learn from the Passover that are Very Relevant for us Today
1) The Passover teaches us that there is judgment
2) The Passover teaches us that we are saved from judgment only by the blood of a Passover Lamb
3) The Passover teaches us that we are new
Questions:
1) Suppose a friend asks you why the OT is even relevant for us today - isn't it just a bunch of laws for Israel? Based on this passage, what would you tell them?
2) What does this passage teach us about the judgment of God?
3) How do the details on the Passover in this passage comfort you?
4) Why does the detail about the herbs being bitter matter? Do you think this has any relevance for the ordinances that we observe under the new covenant?
5) What is the purpose of the Feast of Unleavened Bread and how is it practical for us today?

Morning Service at 10:30 AM
Title: The Battle between God and Satan - Part IV: The God of the Plagues
Text: Exodus 10
Outline: Three Things we Should Takeaway about the God of the Plagues
1) Because God Alone is God, He is to be Exalted (vv. 1-2) - this includes trusting in his work alone for salvation and none of our own works
2) Because God Alone is God, He is to be Obeyed (vv. 3-29)
3) Because God Alone is God, He Alone is to be Worship as God (vv. 21-23)
Questions for discussion:
1) Where was the gospel in this message?
2) What does it mean (and what does it NOT mean) for God to harden Pharaoh's heart? Does this alleviate Pharaoh of his human responsibility? Why or why not?
3) Why did God harden Pharaoh's heart? Does this make God the agent of sin?
4) What did we learn from this passage about how we can exalt God?
5) What do we learn from Pharaoh trying to negotiate with God? Why should this cause us all the more to rely only on Christ's righteousness?
6) What is the significance of the plague of darkness?
Afternoon Service at 4:00 PM
Sermon: Orthodox Catechism Question 96
Q. 96. What are good works?

(a) Rom. 14:23. (b) 1 Sam. 15:22. (c) 1 Cor. 10:31. (d) Eph. 2:10. (e) Deut. 11:32; Isa. 29:13; Ezek. 20:18-19; Matt. 15:9.

Text: Exodus 9
Outline: Five Conclusions we Should Draw From God's Judgment
1) God's Judgment means Salvation for His People (vv. 1-7)
2) God's Judgment means Shame for His Enemies (vv. 8-12)
3) God's Judgment Magnifies his Glorious Power (vv. 13-16)
4) God's Judgment means We Must Flee It to Refuge (vv. 17-26)

Questions for discussion:
1) Where was the gospel in this message?
2) How does God's judgment mean salvation for his people?
3) Why is it proper for God to show himself off but sinful for man to do this?
4) What do we learn about God in making Pharaoh a vessel of wrath and why should that make us who believe thankful?
