Maryland PCA Church Compares COVID Vaccine To Holy Spirit: "Our Protection, Our Assurance"
Dr. Wayne Koch, a professor at Johns Hopkins Medicine, embarks on a metaphor about COVID-19 vaccines and the Holy Spirit during a Sunday morning call to worship at Columbia Presbyterian Church, a PCA congregation in Columbia, Maryland.
—TRANSCRIPT—
Are you ready for this morning's opening metaphor? Prof Koch is up here, so we're gonna get a metaphor this morning. It takes a minute. Bear with me.
I was thinking about it this morning. We're so happy to be here and unmasked. All we with unveiled faces, right? And to be together. And we're watching the Delta variant and all that stuff and worrying a little bit about whether we're gonna be able to keep this freedom to meet together this week.
And we're here together and able to be together because of a vaccine, largely, right? That we've been vaccinated. And that is our protection, our assurance.
So here's the metaphor. We actually are here longing for something much more than just getting back to life the way that we remember it. Being able to go on vacation, as some of our members have done, or go to a restaurant. And we have a much bigger problem, don't we, than the COVID, coronavirus. Our problem is how can we come into the presence of the God who made us who we have sinned against, who we've disappointed?
And if you look at the bulletin verse [1 John 4:17], you see the metaphor for the vaccine. We have a much better solution that allows us to be together, and that is the Holy Spirit dwelling in us.
As you look to your right and to your left and you see the person sitting next to you, we hope that that person is vaccinated, but we also hope that they have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them, as we have hope that the Holy Spirit dwells in us. And by that Spirit, his love is perfected within us, so that we have confidence in the day of judgment to draw nigh. And that's what we've come to do.
