PRAISE & WORSHIP
At Jesus is Lord Fellowship WWI, we believe that the Power of God
will manifest itself in our lives if we truly worship Him.
Throughout the Bible we are called to praise and worship God
All of our services begin with "songs, hymns, and spiritual songs"
(Eph. 5:19). We actively participate in contemporary worship music
that uplifts the name of Jesus and at the same time uplifts the
hearts of the worshippers. We are encouraged by the Psalms to "Make
a joyful noise unto the Lord" and "Exalt the Lord, our God, and
worship at His footstool; for He is holy." (Ps. 100:1, Ps. 99:5)
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with
praise! Be thankful unto Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is
good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all
generations.
Psalms 100:4&5

Gratitude for JILFWWI Staff
and everyone who has breath
Pastora Diana Brevan
Thankfulness is to the Staff of Jesus Is Lord Fellowship WWI
I'm thankful for the eldership and
their stand for the truth. Without a
faithful eldership a preacher really
cannot be the most effective that We
can be in the local work. Every time
there has been a problem arise that the
elders had to deal with, they have
solved it by going to the scripture and letting the scripture guide
their decision.
This is exactly the way things
should be. Titus 1:9 says that an elder
is to be "Holding fast the faithful
word as he hath been taught, that he
may be able by sound doctrine both to
exhort and to convince the gainsayers."
Elderships that don't allow the
scriptures to solve problems don't
need to be serving as elders. Thank
you for demanding such of your elders
and thank you faithful elders for
following the truth of God's word.
Elders in Jesus Is Lord Fellowship

I appreciate all of you. Finally, I'm thankful for the spirit of
love that flows through this congregation Of World Wide
International Jesus is Lord Fellowship.
I have worshipped in many different
congregations in my life. The
spirit of love that characterizes this
World Wide International Fellowship
congregation is tremendous. Your
love for the Lord is incontrovertible
and that is our first priority as Christians
(Matthew 22:37). Your love for
your neighbor is also without reproach
I'm not talking about the
emotional, syrupy, puppy love of the
adolescent. I'm talking about the mature,
adult, sober love that characterizes
God's faithful. Emotions come
and go with time; the love that seeks
the highest good of our neighbor is
constant, steady, and strong regardless
what may come. Thank you for your
spirit of love.

I could, in detail, express thanks: the

Today's Daily Manna I bring to You a Short Sermon Study
The Rebellion of Nudity and the Meaning of Clothing
By Pastora Diana Brevan
The first consequence of Adam's and Eve's sin mentioned in Genesis 3:7
is that "the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were
naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths."
Suddenly they are self-conscious about their bodies. Before their
rebellion against God, there was no shame. "The man and his wife were
both naked and were not ashamed" (Genesis 2:25). Now there is shame. Why?
There is no reason to think that it's because they suddenly became
ugly. Their beauty wasn't the focus in Genesis 2:25, and their
ugliness is not the focus here in Genesis 3:7. Why then the shame?
Because the foundation of covenant-keeping love collapsed. And with it
the sweet, all-trusting security of marriage disappeared forever.
The foundation of covenant-keeping love between a man and a woman is
the unbroken covenant between them and God—God governing them for
their good and they enjoying him in that security and relying on him.
When they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, that
covenant was broken and the foundation of their own covenant-keeping
collapsed.
They experienced this immediately in the corruption of their own
covenant love for each other. It happened in two ways. Both relate to
the experience of shame. In the first case, the one viewing my
nakedness is no longer trustworthy, so I am afraid I will be shamed.
In the second, I myself am no longer at peace with God, but I feel
guilty and defiled and unworthy—I deserve to be shamed.
In the first case, I am self-conscious of my body, and I feel
vulnerable to shame because I know Eve has chosen to be independent
from God. She has made herself central in the place of God. She is
essentially now a selfish person. From this day forward, she will put
herself first. She is no longer a servant. So she is not safe. And I
feel vulnerable around her, because she is very likely to put me down
for her own sake. So suddenly my nakedness is precarious. I don't
trust her any more to love me with pure covenant-keeping love. That's
one source of my shame.
The other source is that Adam himself, not just his spouse, has broken
covenant with God. If she is rebellious and selfish, and therefore
unsafe, so am I. But the way I experience it in myself is that I feel
defiled and guilty and unworthy. That's, in fact, what I am. Before
the Fall, what was and what ought to have been were the same. But now,
what is and what ought to be are not the same.
I ought to be humbly and gladly submissive to God. But I am not. This
huge gap between what I am and what I ought to be colors everything
about me—including how I feel about my body. So my
Husband, might be the safest person in the world, but now my own sense
of guilt and unworthiness makes me feel vulnerable. The simple, open
nakedness of innocence now feels inconsistent with the guilty person
that I am. I feel ashamed.
So the shame of nakedness arises from two sources, and both of them
are owing to the collapse of the foundation of covenant love in our
relationship with God. One is that Eve is no longer reliable to
cherish me; she has become selfish and I feel vulnerable that she will
put me down for her own selfish ends. The other is that I already know
that I am guilty myself, and the nakedness of innocence contradicts my
unworthiness—I am ashamed of it.
Genesis 3:7 says that they tried to cope with this new situation by
making clothing: "They sewed fig leaves together and made themselves
loincloths." Adam's and Eve's effort to clothe themselves was a sinful
effort to conceal what had really happened. They tried to hide from
God (Genesis 3:8). Their nakedness felt too revealing and too
vulnerable. So they tried to close the gap between what they were and
what they ought to be by covering what is, and presenting themselves
in a new way.
So what does it mean that God clothed them with animal skins? Was he
confirming their hypocrisy? Was he aiding and abetting their pretense?
If they were naked and shame-free before the Fall, and if they put on
clothes to minimize their shame after the Fall, then what is God doing
by clothing them even better than they can clothe themselves? I think
the answer is that he is giving a negative message and a positive message.
Negatively, he is saying, You are not what you were and you are not
what you ought to be. The chasm between what you are and what you
ought to be is huge. Covering yourself with clothing is a right
response to this—not to conceal it, but to confess it. Henceforth, you
shall wear clothing, not to conceal that you are not what you should
be, but to confess that you are not what you should be.
One practical implication of this is that public nudity today is not a
return to innocence but rebellion against moral reality. God ordains
clothes to witness to the glory we have lost, and it is added
rebellion to throw them off.
And for those who rebel in the other direction and make clothes
themselves a means of power and prestige and attention getting, God's
answer is not a return to nudity but a return to simplicity (1 Timothy
2:9-10; 1 Peter 3:4-5). Clothes are not meant to make people think
about what is under them. Clothes are meant to direct attention to
what is not under them: merciful hands that serve others in the name
of Christ, beautiful feet that carry the gospel where it is needed,
and the brightness of a face that has beheld the glory of Jesus.
Now we have already crossed over to the more positive meaning of
clothing that God had in his mind when he clothed Adam and Eve with
animal skins. This was not only a witness to the glory we lost and a
confession that we are not what we should be, but it is also a
testimony that God himself would one day make us what we should be.
God rejected their own self-clothing. Then he did it himself. He
showed mercy with superior clothing.
Together with the other hopeful signs in the context (like the defeat
of the serpent in Genesis 3:15), God's mercy points to the day when he
will solve the problem of our shame decisively and permanently. He
will do it with the blood of his own Son (as there apparently was
blood shed in the killing of the animals of the skins). And he will do
it with the clothing of righteousness and the radiance of his glory
(Galatians 3:27; Philippians 3:21).
Which means that our clothes are a witness both to our past and
present failure and to our future glory. They testify to the chasm
between what we are and what we should be. And they testify to God's
merciful intention to bridge that chasm through Jesus Christ and his
death for our sins.
