Reggie Moore

Today was the funeral for Elder Reggie Moore. David Collier, Paul Jackson, and John Pruitt gave brief messages and Sam Wilson preached the concluding message of the service. 

I did the the following graveside service.

As it has pleased our Sovereign God,

who hath determined the times before appointed,

and the bounds of our brothers habitation;

We commit Elder Reggie Moore’s earthly tabernacle to the earth.

Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: 

but the soul has returned to the God who gave it –

our brother, now absent from this body,

is now present with the Lord Christ who redeemed Him with His blood.

Here we immerse the body,

which will wait for the glorious appearing of the great God and Saviour Jesus Christ;

Who died for sins, was also buried

But the grave could not hold Him.

Conquering death, rising from the dead for our justification,

   

He gives us a living hope in a living Saviour.

Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

Amen.
