Matthew reads Jesus' return from Egypt through the story of Israel, God's son. - God’s love precedes our response

The interior altar is covered with cedar and gold before the inner sanctuary (1 Kings 6:20–22; 7:48). Its precise dimensions are not supplied by these passages; the earlier Tabernacle altar’s measurements should not… - Golden Lampstand

Jesus proclaims the kingdom in Galilee, calls disciples, and brings the announcement of good news. - Gospel Book
The Book of the Gospels normally rests on the Holy Table and is carried and read during worship. Its cover is often richly adorned. - Grace and Faith
Historic Reformation teaching emphasizes that salvation begins with God's grace in Christ and is received by faith rather than earned. Justification, sanctification, repentance, and good works are related but… - Grace and Salvation

Orthodox teaching describes salvation through Christ as restored communion with God and participation in divine life. Faith is lived through repentance and love; works do not purchase God's grace. - Grace, faith, and transformed life
