PASTORS LETTER

He is risen! He is risen indeed!

I pray your Easter was full of joy in once
again celebrating our resurrected Lord.
Easter represents new life, new beginnings
and new opportunities. Easter reminds us
that what was once old is now new again,
and that includes our faith.
This past Lent my sermon series focused on
how we can Ignite our Faith, how we can
be transformed by the way Jesus lived and
by the events of Easter. Every Easter, and
the days that follow, should remind us of
why we call ourselves faithful Christians.
Easter should be the switch that ignites our
faith into action. Actions that not only
transform us, but transform the whole
world into the loving Kingdom of God
where there is neither Greek nor Jew, slave
nor free, rich nor poor, housed nor homeless, sick nor well. Easter gives you and me
the hope that one day these words will
come true in the way we care for each other. Easter also gives us the charge to get up
and move. The charge to be courageous no
matter our age or infirmities to do or say
something that creates and welcomes in the
Kingdom of God between you and me.
As we enter the long stretch between Easter and Christmas, I pray the amazing events
of Easter, and the life of Jesus the Christ are
enough of a spark to ignite your flame of
faith. May you live into the light of our risen Lord and in so doing experience the
Kingdom of God here and now!

ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE

Financial Results for February 2015
February:
Income = $23,448

Budget = $23,427 Difference = +$21

Year-To-Date:
Income = $52,456

Budget = $$46,584 Difference = +$5,602

Expenses Year-to-Date:
Actual = $43,397 Budget = $46,937

Difference = -$3,540

As you can see, we held our own in February coming in at $21 over budget. There are 5 Sundays in
March so I am very optimistic regarding our results for the first quarter of 2015. Expenses remain under
budget. However, as previously stated, these expenses will catch up with the budget as the year progresses. All in all, an excellent start to our fiscal year!
Our Ministry is in need of new members. We need to grow as a church and new members with fresh ideas are always welcome! We meet on the second Tuesday of each month. Come and visit any of our meetings. See what we are all about. No Algebra. No Geometry. No Calculus. Just basic bookkeeping and a
desire to keep Fort King Church relevant.

DISCIPLESHIP
Sunday Adult Study
April 12 May 31
Class 9:15 A.M. Session Room
Reading 1st C. Letters
with 21st C. Eyes
Over the past six weeks Peter Messmore helped our class meet the radical, authentic Paul. For the seven
Sundays following Easter, Tom McNeil, Mary Beth Neely, and Ray Ruark will help us read Pauls almost
2,000 year old personal letters, especially his letter from prison to the church in Philippi, for insights on
the issues we face in our world, our country, and our church here in Ocala. You are invited to join with
Paul, Epaphroditus, Euodia, Synthche, and all the old and current saints as we seek Gods wisdom together.
(Please note: There will be no class on Easter Sunday)

DISCIPLESHIP (continued)
Library Corner
HELP! The church library is running out of shelf space! So many books have been received in the last
few months (both donated and purchased) that next time you visit you will feel like a kid in a candy
store! Listed below are just a few of the most recent additions.
How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian by John Dominic Crossan. This is his newest book
(released March 3rd) which he talked about in some of the delightful lectures he gave here in Ocala and
at FKPC earlier this year.
The Resurrection of Jesus: J. D. Crossan and N.T. Wright in Dialogue (donated by Rhea Forman).
Thoughts about the resurrection by Crossan, a "liberal Christian", and Wright, a "conservative Christian", are presented, compared and discussed by several religious scholars.
A New Kind of Christianity: Ten Questions That Are Transforming the Faith by Brian D. McLaren, a
pastor, speaker and author. Some of the ten questions he addresses are: do we have to understand Jesus
through only an ancient Greco-Roman lens; what exactly is the good news that the gospel proclaims;
how should we think of the future and people from other faiths; and the most intimidating question of
all - what do we do next?
Also from Bruce McLaren comes his latest book We Make the Road by Walking.
Walking
Short Stories by Jesus: The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi, written by Amy-Jill Levine.
In the Footsteps of Jesus: A Chronicle of His Life and the Origins of Christianity. This is a big, beautiful
book from National Geographic donated by Gene Andrews and Jorine Robinson.
Being Mortal: Medicine & What Matters Most in the End by Atul Gawande, a surgeon and a professor
at Harvard Medical School. He is the author of three previous books, all bestsellers, and this current
one is destined to be another. From the book jacket comes this quote: " 'Being Mortal' shows how the
ultimate goal is not a good death but a good life -- all the way to the end."
Anne MacKay has donated 8 CDs which contain talks given by Marcus Borg at a memorial lecture series in North Carolina in 2009. With renewed interest in both Borg and Crossan, all items from our library by these two Jesus Seminar scholars have been gathered together and are displayed on the bookcase straight ahead as you enter the library. Use the many great resources your library has to offer in order to enhance your understanding of whatever religious topic you are yearning to know more about.
The library is open every Sunday from 9 a.m. until 11:45 a.m. Ask Pat in the Church Office for access at
other times during the week.

35

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was
a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I
was in prison and you came to visit me. 37 Then the righteous will answer him, Lord, when did we see you
hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite
you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit
you?40 The King will reply, Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters
of mine, you did for me. Matthew 25:35-40 (NIV)

One Great Hour of Sharing

On Easter Sunday April 5th, look for envelops in the bulletin to share in the One Great Hour
of Sharing. This PC(USA) wide collection enables the church to share Gods love with our neighbors-inneed around the world by providing relief to those affected by natural disasters, provide food to the hungry,
and helping to empower the poor and oppressed.

PROPERTY MINISTRY
Bathrooms Transformed
Hallelujah! A word not normally used when talking about bathrooms, but in this case we are
because our sanctuary bathrooms are getting a facelift. Right after Easter work will begin on
repainting and installing porcelain tile floors in both bathrooms. New toilets (taller) and vanity
will be installed in the ladies room, along with other sprucing up items.
Please pardon our dust and any inconvenience the transformation might
cause over the coming weeks. We look forward to getting the work done as quickly
as possible.

WORSHIP (continued)
EASTER.PEACE

What a thrill to know that my Redeemer lives! Jesus Christ is just as alive today as
He was right after the resurrection. In fact, He is just as much alive today as He
was before the crucifixion, and even before He came to earth and was laid in the
manger.
In Job 19, verse 25, we read I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the
earth. What difference does it make whether we serve a living God or one made of stone? Isnt it just a practice we believe in? Is it a crutch to help us along our way? No! Absolutely not!
But my God is alive! The joy and the assurance that we celebrate on Easter doesnt end when the holiday is
over and the decorations are all packed away. Walk with Christ. Talk with Him, and allow His joy to penetrate
your heart and fill your soul. Dont live in defeat and agony as if Christ is still on in cross, or in the tomb. HE is
alive! He IS alive! He is ALIVE!
Samuel Medley wrote the poem I Know That My Redeemer Lives and it was set to music. It is the result of a
severe leg injury he incurred in 1759 when his ship was engaged in a naval battle with a French ship. His leg
was so damaged that amputation was imminent in order to save his life. Medley remembered what his Grandfather had taught him and he vigorously began to pray during the night that his leg be spared. The next morning,
the ships physician examined the leg and determined that amputation was no longer needed.
This hymn is one of great praise, especially coming from someone who did not know Gods love until later in
life. It demonstrates the peace Medley gained as a result of his realizing there is a Living God who wanted to
supply his every need. To me, it gives me peace because it reminds me that God is in my life.
I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever living Head.
He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.
He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.

10

WORSHIP (continued)
A living God knows right where you are day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute. He sees your every
need, hears your every cry, and longs to hold you close to Himself. He is present to walk with you through
the valley. He provides a song in the night. He takes your feet from the muck and mire and plants them on
a rock. He blesses you with hope and gives joy for Lifes journey. A god with no life is unable to do these
things. He cannot see, or hear, or reach, or touch, or provide. He simply cannot.
He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my souls complaint.
He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.
He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, Ill sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.
He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He lives to bring me safely there.
He lives, all glory to His Name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!
This hymn reminds us that God does live every day in us, and that he lives for us, not just so that we may
sing his praise, but that we may be saved in Him. Just the other day while in church, I thought to myself,
why does God get to use us, and furthermore, why does He want to use us? There isnt really any other answer to this question other than His love for us is so strong that he wants us to be with him eternally, and
the only way to do that is to live in his way. Living like Christ and like God is not an easy task, and is something that we as humans cannot do simply on our own. It takes God and His power to allow us to live a life
worthy of Him.
Why? Because Christ is alive! So rejoice, my friend, and live each day with the hope and joy and peace that
Easter brings.
With a song in my heart,
Rick

WORSHIP (continued)
To Be Risen With Christ
There are many facets of early Christian belief in the Resurrection:
Resurrection its connection with the coming of Christ, the
Day of Judgment, general and individual resurrections, the coming of the Messiah, consummation, etc., etc. Just
exactly what the word meant to the NT writers and believers and what it may mean for us complicates our own
understandings. I will do my utmost to make all aspects of the belief as crystal clear as possible. It does have a
focused meaning on our life together in the church, and this is exactly where we start.
The Apostle Paul, about +15 20 years before the NT Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) were written (and
50 years before the Gospel of John the Fourth Gospel) presented three perspectives on resurrection:
- I Thessalonians 4 (+/- 50 CE) presented an apocalyptic version, Pauls earliest Pharisaic perspective,
a time line of coming events leading to the second coming (Parousia) of Christ, resurrections, consummation, etc.;
- I Corinthians 15 (+/- 54 CE) begins with a creedal statement Paul had received from an early Greekspeaking Jewish group of worshippers. Two notes: One does not believe in the crucifixion of Jesus: it
happened! One does believe in the Resurrection: it is not an historical event. Paul said that Jesus
was raised on the third day, meaning from his point of view that this was an act of God, not yet
a historical fact; and,
- The Epistle to the Romans (+/- 57 CE) in which Paul used the word Resurrection, only twice (1:4;
6:5), but affirmed raised from the dead eleven times; he did not give a time-line for coming future
events! Ah! Thats important.
If we may begin with the Apostle Pauls statements in his Epistle to the Romans, he makes the following point:
The Transformation = Resurrection of human life, of your, my, and our life and lives, begins now;
now in Christ
our relationships with one another are now being transformed, changed. We do not wait for a future event to
occur! Paul clearly stated:

Do not be conformed to this world (Eon, Epoch), but be transformed by the

renewal of your mind that you may prove/demonstrate what is the Will of God (Romans 12:2).
It is precisely this point in the Apostle Paul that is consistent with the sayings/teaching of Jesus of Nazareth:
* In Jesus parables:
- The Seed Sown Secretly: Mark 4:26-29.
- The Mustard Seed: Mark 4:30-32 // Gospel of Thomas 20:26-4.
- The Leaven: Luke 13:20-21// Matthew 13:33.
That is, the fulfillment of the Kingdom of God is beyond our control, management, or manipulation. It is Gods
kingdom that is present now, even though unseen, not recognized. And, it will reach its fulfillment in its own
time.
*

In Jesus sayings:

Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God (Luke 6:20/ Matthew 5:3/ Gospel Thomas
54);

Behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst=in between you (Gospel Thomas 113:2:4/Luke
17:20-21).

12

WORSHIP (continued)
That is, for Jesus of Nazareth, the Transformation of human lives starts now, not in some distant future series of
events leading to Consummation. Jesus of Nazareth proclaimed the now-present Kingdom of God, yet to be
fulfilled; Paul, the now present Resurrection/transformation, yet to be fulfilled!!
Paul urged that we have the mind of Christ which puts us in a unique position: with Jesus of Nazareth, whom
he called The Christ, we are to pour out our life-energies in being present to and supportive of one another as
persons. There are no boundaries on love for Paul or Jesus.
To the working Body of Christ in the world means concretely to be the continuation of the ministry of Jesus of
Nazareth. We share in his ministry; no one is his successor. We are companions with and representatives of
Jesus of Nazareth. We not only share in Jesus ministry; we must learn how he said and did things, and we must
learn how to do things in our age and time. We may live in a technologically advanced and advancing world/
civilization, but the reality is that we are still each and all human beings. We may not identify psychological disturbances and/or the effects of socio-cultural and physical oppression as demonic, but we must still deal with
these realities and they are just as real today as they were for Jesus. So, learn think and share we must in order to be the Body of Christ in the world today.
Being a member of the Church, the Body of Christ, entails questioning not only ones socio-cultural upbringing
and assumptions, but entails confronting the dehumanization of persons by the dominationsystems of this
world. And it entails critically questioning the easy identification of Churchinstitutional goals with meeting the
needs of human beings.
Pauls exhortation still stands:

I appeal to you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship (Romans 12:1)
And this is followed by:

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind (Romans 12:2)
This is the beginning of Resurrection in this world. Weve got lots to work on!
Something to think about.
Shalom,
Tom
