Christ Jesus, the Son of God, is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. We are cleansed by his blood. We have life through his resurrection. Watch: https://youtube.com/live/YqF_vP7wh3Q

Our hope for society is that it will be just and perfect in the next life. We do not place our faith in laws, as such. Instead, what we need is to soften our hearts and place our faith in Christ. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/kV82HcC9yJE

We are called to the marvellous privilege of loving God, not just obeying him. Watch Here on Youtube: https://youtube.com/live/kSQBfBP7N7M

God is gracious. His covenants are grounded on grace. His love and grace to us are for our good, but ultimately for his glory. Our blessings in Christ assure us of salvation and a new life with him in our earthly home ahead, when he returns. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/wxQ34hvWT1g

We are prone to wander, to forget, to not remember the Lord our God. Yet, we are called to walk with the Lord, to set our minds on the things of the Spirit, to serve God. We can only do this through faith in Christ Jesus. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/Em9LTC653dA

In Deuteronomy 7 God drove out sin from the land that he was giving to his people. He will also drive out sin from the new heavens and new earth. We will live then in perfect love and joy, without the reality, or possibility, of sin. Watch Here: https://youtube.com/live/GMuvUS4rvA0

There is only one God, who calls us to love him, and teach about him to the next generation. We can do that through the tradition of church creed, confessions, catechisms. Watch Here: https://youtube.com/live/cwaYvxp40zM

The moral law (Ten Commandments) are not just legalistic rules imposed on us. They reflect the character of God. To be close to God, to be like God, we need to obey them. None of us has obeyed them. But Christ Jesus has. In him, therefore, is life. Through faith in him we have justification and life. And in him we can obey the moral law, follow Jesus, walk in the Spirit, and know the Father. The m...

The Ten Commandments are not just the standard that shows us that we are sinners and need to be justified by faith--they are the pattern for us to live and obey, so that we will walk more closely with Jesus, walking in the Spirit, knowing God as the God who is love.

The Ten Commandments, the moral law, will not prove how good we are. Instead, it shows how sinful we are, and points us to Christ. But, it is also the standard by which we ought to live, in order to be more like Jesus. Obedience to the law is being transformed to be more like Jesus. The moral law is our friend, not to be feared, through faith in Christ, but to be cherished. Watch Here on Yotube: h...

Obedience to God's moral law is not simply obeying commands, it is how we love God. But we cannot love and obey without faith, without Christ. Let us draw near to Christ, to love and obey God. Watch: https://youtube.com/live/m3etwNnWl7c

Elders are Christ's gift to the church. Through the spiritual gifting of elders, and many other giftings, Christ leads the church. We pray for and humbly obey our elders in the Lord. Let us do so to give glory to Christ. Watch: https://youtube.com/live/4j4wj4gPYUU

God's plan of salvation isn't all about us. Above all else it is to bring glory to his name. Let's praise God that he delights in being glorified by being so good to us. And let's put him first in all things. Watch: https://youtube.com/live/SI-i-eYB-Yo

God will judge unrighteous living in the land. But he promises eternal life in the land with him for all who trust in Christ Jesus. Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBy24La3sAI

Deuteronomy has been described as The Gospel according to Moses. In it, Moses encourages the Israelites to faith, not disbelief like when they refused to go into the promised land. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/I8MCqWB8hPQ

"What does it mean to be a Christian?” It means to know Christ, who is our life. Not merely doing things for God, but by faith God doing things in us. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/Z4052AA4egw

We ought to love God and love our neighbour as ourselves. To do that, we need Jesus. To see people trust in Christ, we need to pray and preach the gospel. Then, as we live it out, people will glorify God, love one another, and society will be changed. Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvnHNfvJAkg

A confession of faith, or a confessional statement, is an act of worship, putting guardrails around what the church's elders are to hold to, for the good of the church and the glory of God. Watch here on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/MJt__ZpG6cY

Eldership is one of Christ's gifts to the church. We need to select elders with care, and they will care for us. Ultimately our great pastoral care is from Christ himself. Watch Here on Youtube: https://youtube.com/live/aScRIn9Y610

Don't be afraid of AI. We can use it wisely. But the least intelligent human is far more glorious than the most advanced artificial intelligence. Let's use it but not be dominated by it. Let's celebrate our humanity, made in the image of God, and worship him.

There are many ways in which we can harmed spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally. Jesus refers to many thieves who want to kill and destroy. But he is our Good Shepherd who laid down his life for us. Let us stay close to him, listening to his voice and following him.

As we struggle through many trials in this life, let us not be overcome by them. Instead, let us look to Christ Jesus, and consider the glory that is ahead which far outweighs our present problems. Watch on youtube: https://youtube.com/live/wLRQTfSxrwU

Many people think of giving to church as burdensome. Paul taught that it was an act of worship. If we love God, our hearts and wallets will be in line with his purposes and his work. We ought to give joyfully and regularly to the work of the Lord.

When Jesus brings us to green pastures, let us not be distracted by far off fields appearing greener. Let us enjoy the scenery, smell the flowers, delight in the good things of God, his nature and his creation. And we will appreciate, and be content in, our triune God all the more.
