In our 16th episode of Church History, Pastor Lance takes a close look at the first ecumenical council, The Council of Nicaea.

Part 3 in an audio-lecture series through First, Second, and Third John, taught by Pastor David Guzik. The Apostle John's incredible letters are invaluable guides for perfecting love and fellowship - between man and God, oneself and others, and between Christ and His church.
Psalm 136 is a special psalm, with each one of its 26 verses repeating the sentence, His mercy endures forever. Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, the phrase has somewhat of a liturgical sense to it, as if the assembled people of Israel said or sung this in response to the direction of the Levites leading singing and worship. We picture a great multitude of the people of God gathered in the temple courts. A priest or Levite would call out a reason to give God thanks, and His people would respond with, “For His mercy endures forever.”
Consider how great the mercy of God is, as it is expressed in the person and work of Jesus Christ throughout this wonderful psalm!
Psalm 100 is a psalm of thanksgiving, and it speaks of an invitation to the whole earth to know and to worship God.
Pastor David Guzik gives the what and why of giving praise and the what and why of giving thanks.
