COMPARATIVE NARRATIVES
Senior Pastor Daniel O. C. | Jun 26, 2026
Beloved Saint of God Most High,
Calvary greetings to you and yours in the mighty name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen!
May the Lord God Almighty bless you with a wonderful and glorious Christ-centred weekend ahead in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!
“For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God” (Romans 15:4-7).
Now may the God Who gives the power of patient endurance, steadfastness and Who supplies encouragement, grant you to live in such mutual harmony and such full sympathy with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus.
Whatever was written beforehand is meant to instruct us in how to live.
The Scriptures impart to us encouragement and inspiration so that we can live in hope and endure all things.
Then, with a unanimous rush of passion, you will with one voice glorify God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. You will bring God glory when you accept and welcome one another as partners, just as Jesus Christ, the Anointed One has fully accepted you and received you as His partner.
