Welcome, we’re glad you’re here. Our vision echoes the Lord’s prayer: may it be “in the South Bay, as it is in heaven.” We yearn to see people flourishing in Jesus. Join us in the worship of our Lord.

PREPARATION FOR WORSHIP

 

And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
   but when they went in
   they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
Luke 24:2-3

…you killed the Author of life,
   whom God raised from the dead.
To this we are witnesses.
-Acts 3:15

 

WELCOME & CALL TO WORSHIP

For I know that my Redeemer lives,
    and at the last he will stand upon the earth.
And after my skin has been thus destroyed,
    yet in my flesh I shall see God,
whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold,    
   and not another. My heart faints within me!
Job 19:25-27

 

SONG

 

This is Amazing Grace

[Verse 1]
Who breaks the power of sin and darkness
Whose love is mighty and so much stronger
The King of Glory, the King above all Kings

Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder
and leaves us breathless in awe and wonder
The King of Glory, the King above all kings

[Chorus]
This is amazing grace
This is unfailing love
That you would take my place
That You would bear my cross

You laid down Your life
That I would be set free
Jesus I sing for
All that You’ve done for me

[Verse 2]
Who brings our chaos back into order
Who makes the orphan a son and daughter
The King of Glory, the King of Glory

Who rules the nations with truth and justice
shines like the sun in all of its brilliance
The King of Glory
The King above all Kings

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

[Chorus]

 

 

SONG

 

Great Things

[Verse 1]
Come let us worship our King
Come let us bow at His feet
He has done great things

See what our Savior has done
See how His love overcomes
He has done great things
He has done great things

[Chorus]
Oh Hero of Heaven, You conquered the grave
You free every captive and break every chain
Oh God, You have done great things

We dance in Your freedom, awake and alive
Oh Jesus, our Savior, Your name lifted high
Oh God, You have done great things

[Verse 2]
You’ve been faithful through every storm
You’ll be faithful forevermore
You have done great things

And I know You will do it again
For Your promise is “Yes and amen”
You do great things
God, You do great things

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Hallelujah God, above it all
Hallelujah God, unshakable
Hallelujah, You have done great things

[Chorus]

 

 

 

SCRIPTURE READING

 

For I delivered to you as of first importance
   what I also received:
that Christ died for our sins
   in accordance with the Scriptures,

that he was buried,
that he was raised on the third day
   in accordance with the Scriptures,
and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers
   at one time, most of whom are still alive,
   though some have fallen asleep.

Then he appeared to James,
   then to all the apostles.
Last of all, as to one untimely born,
   he appeared also to me…

Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead,
   how can some of you say
   that there is no resurrection of the dead?
But if there is no resurrection of the dead,
   then not even Christ has been raised.

And if Christ has not been raised,
   then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.
We are even found to be misrepresenting God,
   because we testified about God that he raised Christ,
 whom he did not raise if it is true
   that the dead are not raised.

For if the dead are not raised,
   not even Christ has been raised.
And if Christ has not been raised,
   your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.
Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ
   have perished.

If in Christ we have hope in this life only,
   we are of all people most to be pitied.
1 Corinthians 15:3-8, 12-19

 

 

SONG

 

He Lives

[Verse 1]
See the tomb where He laid
See the stone rolled away
He is risen, He is risen
He’s alive

See His hands, see His feet
Touch His scars and believe
He is risen, He is risen
He’s alive

[Chorus]
He lives
All honor and power are His
All glory forever, amen
Jesus lives

[Verse 2]
Hear the shackles breaking free
Hear the song of the redeemed
He is moving, He is moving
He’s alive

So take this freedom, take this love
Can you feel it rising up
He is here, He is here
He’s alive

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You took all our shame, left it in the grave
We’re forgiven, we’re forgiven
The work forever done, only by the blood
It is finished, it is finished

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!

[Chorus]

SERMON
“Even If Someone Rises From the Dead”

19 “There was a rich man
   who was clothed in purple and fine linen
   and who feasted sumptuously every day.

20 And at his gate was laid a poor man named Lazarus,
   covered with sores, 21 who desired to be fed
   with what fell from the rich man’s table.
Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 The poor man died
   and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side.
The rich man also died and was buried,
   23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes
   and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.

24 And he called out,
   ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me,
and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water
   and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’

25 But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that
   you in your lifetime received your good things,
   and Lazarus in like manner bad things;
but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish.

26 And besides all this,
   between us and you a great chasm has been fixed,
in order that those who would pass from here to you
   may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.’

27 And he said, ‘Then I beg you, father,
   to send him to my father’s house —
28 for I have five brothers — so that he may warn them,
   lest they also come into this place of torment.’

29 But Abraham said,
‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.’
30 And he said, ‘No, father Abraham,

   but if someone goes to them from the dead,
   they will repent.’

31 He said to him,
   ‘If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets,
neither will they be convinced
   if someone should rise from the dead.’”
Luke 16:19-31 (ESV)

 

COMMUNION

 

 

SONG

 

Living Hope

[Verse 1]
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness, Your lovingkindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Verse 2]
Who could imagine so great a mercy?
What heart could fathom such boundless grace?
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
The King of Kings calls me His own
Beautiful Savior, I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Verse 3]
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus, Yours is the victory

[Chorus]

 

BENEDICTION

 

Jesus said to her,
   “I am the resurrection and the life.
Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,
   and everyone who lives and believes in me
   shall never die. Do you believe this?”
John 11:25-26
