This Week's Scripture

Sunday Oct. 25th
Deuteronomy 34:1-12
1 Thessalonians 2:1-8
Matthew 22:34-46

"Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, who did all those signs and wonders the Lord sent him to do in Egypt—to Pharaoh and to all his officials and to his whole land. For no one has ever shown the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel."
- Deuteronomy 34:10-12
