Now is the time
August 20, 2018
(Image: John the Baptist Artworks) John 4:23-24 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” The Lord Jesus Christ gave … More Now is the time
Welcoming the Holy Spirit means His gifts as well…all of them
August 16, 2018
‘Come, Holy Spirit, come’….how often have we heard that reprise, whether in traditional or Pentecostal churches. Even evangelicals, and others, will ‘seek the leading of the Holy Spirit’, or the help and assistance of Him to move in power, and yet does He actually feel welcome? Do we actually know Him? We are talking about … More Welcoming the Holy Spirit means His gifts as well…all of them
We abandoned Him and yet Jesus paid our price
August 13, 2018
It is perhaps hard now for us, now around 2000 years fro Jesus’ Crucifixion, to truly appreciate the reality of that dreadful price He paid. And yet, some 1000 years before it the Lord Himself prophecies through David what He went through in Psalm 22. Consider just these verses alone. Psalms 22:14-18 I am … More We abandoned Him and yet Jesus paid our price
Leaders …fear the Lord, and walk humbly before Him
August 11, 2018
Sadly we read of another example of the fall of leadership in large churches, and it seems perhaps the same trap created by themselves…believing as the anointed they are untouchable, and certainly by those of the flock. It also seems they think they are the head of the church, and in control of it. Regardless … More Leaders …fear the Lord, and walk humbly before Him
Real faith…when the rubber hits the road
June 16, 2018
Our faith in Christ, and truly knowing Him (the saving knowledge of Christ), is not something that comes without challenge or trouble, and in fact it is guaranteed by the Lord that we will walk in the road of suffering. Often this message is overlooked in the post modern gospel preaching, but is central to … More Real faith…when the rubber hits the road
The Power of the Blood of Christ
June 16, 2018
It is perhaps to easy to overlook the power of the Blood of Christ. His life offered once that shed His blood for the remission of sins, salvation, and sanctification for all those who pursue Him, is such a sublime truth its depth can misunderstood. Consider these verses from Hebrews. Hebrews 9:22 – 10:14 And … More The Power of the Blood of Christ
Uniting Church of Australia at the Crossroads
June 14, 2018
Following is in response to the Uniting Church of Australia consideration of Same Sex Marriage, particularly as proposed to be supported at the next Assembly meeting in July 2018. Thank God, there are those present who will be opposing such a move as it goes much deeper than the issue of same sex marriage. Introduction … More Uniting Church of Australia at the Crossroads
Our Hope Comes
March 31, 2018
And so the price of redemption is paid, the One way to heaven already revealed, the gate of Christ. Even the righteous dead, those saint of old, are rescued from the darkness by the Christ, now their sins are paid for by His blood. That first Easter Saturday, the scene is set for the resurrection, … More Our Hope Comes
Christ in our place…receive Him
March 30, 2018
‘For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. … More Christ in our place…receive Him
