Sermon

We continue our study in Revelation with chapters 10-11. In the midst of struggle and challenge, the church is called to more than waiting – we are to be a witness to the truth of the gospel. Peter Explains.

In the modern world there are all kinds of beeps that technology can make at us – cars, fridges, washing machines, smoke alarms. We can get so used to them that we tune them out. The trumpets in Revelation 8 and 9 function in a similar way. Warning those who oppose God that judgement is […]

Whether we admit it or not, outside of Christ we have a massive problem. Sin spoils everything. As we look at the crucifixion of Jesus from Mark’s gospel, we learn of the consequences of sin, but even more that Jesus suffers so that we might have life. Life without sin or misery. John preached from […]

**NOTE: This week there was a Technical difficulty, and the recording is very unclear.** The injustice in the world can enrage or discourage us. It is hard to know how we can respond, and we can feel so powerless. This week we look at perhaps the worst injustice of all time – a truly innocent […]

There can be many difficulties in this life, and the book of Revelation makes it clear that while we may be grieved, we should not be surprised.

Are we as a church hot, cold, or lukewarm? In Revelation 3, Jesus reveals that He knows the spiritual ‘temperature’ of every church — offering both challenge and hope. From fervent service to chilling indifference, and even complacent lukewarmness, His words are a call to listen that remain relevant in today’s culture.   Jesus continues to […]

Having looked at our status in Christ last week, something that every Christian has equally, this week David Bayne explains our Character in Christ. When we belong to Jesus we gradually grow in character, as we become more and more conformed to the image of Christ. This varies from person to person and time to […]

This week David Bayne came and preached for us on the Status of the Christian, from Romans 8. It is important that we distinguish character and status. Character grows and changes, but our status as children of God is binary and depends on the righteousness of Christ imputed to us and received by grace alone. […]

This week John van Rij preached from Mark 14 on Jesus prayer in the Garden. It can be hard to follow Jesus in the way of the cross, and we can be tempted towards faithlessness. In this passage we see that only Jesus is steadfast, and this helps us to continue following Jesus through whatever […]
