In Jesus’ last teaching before his death and resurrection, among other things he taught the disciples about the coming Spirit who will convict the world of its sin, show the world Jesus’ righteousness, and convict the world of its coming judgment. We know this “Spirit” to be the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity.   Speaker: Pradeep Daniel Series: The Whole Counsel of God Scripture:...

Two major events await the disciples: the destruction of the temple and Jesus’ return. There will be signs, warning them to flee Jerusalem, which happened in A.D. 70. But there are no warning signs for when Jesus will return and this age will end. The disciple’s role is not to wonder about when this will happen — not even Jesus knows — but to live a life of preparedness.   Series: The Whole C...

“If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” Mark 8:34 The cross is the suffering we must be willingly choose for His sake, because we are His followers. And this must be visible in our lives. There is no such thing as a hidden cross! Following Christ is a personal decision but not a private one.   Series: The Whole Counsel of God Speaker: Jerry Wi...

The mystery of the Trinity is that there is one God, and yet God is three – Father, Son, Spirit.  Who is Jesus? This was a common question in the context in which He lived and ministered in the first century AD. But after more than 20 centuries, it still remains the most discussed question.   Jesus culminates this by saying, “I and the Father are one.” (John 10:30)   Series: Th...

We are continually being crucified between two thieves–the regrets of yesterday and the worries about tomorrow. - Warren Wiersbe  The heart of worry is our distrust on God's promises and providence. Matthew 6:25-34 is a Sermon by the King himself - Our Lord Jesus Christ who addresses the SIN OF WORRY. If regrets and worries lead to self-destruction then let us be encouraged Church that Jesus...

Jesus teaches us that prayer begins with us orienting ourselves to our heavenly father, being most concerned with his glory and the advance of his kingdom, and concludes with our admission of total dependence on him for our physical and spiritual needs. Prayer is primarily about God.   Series: The Whole Counsel of God Speaker: Charles Mathew Notes:

The Sermon on the Mount is the message of new king who has come, speaking about a new Kingdom and Is a point of entry for the kingdom, the citizens of this Kingdom are supposed to have qualities different from what the world would expect.  The Beatitudes helps us understand that God wants us to be blessed not in a material sense, but to be in a state where we are intrinsically content. Be lik...

Nicodemus a Pharisee and a member of the Sanhedrin came to Jesus at night, acknowledging him as a teacher sent by God (John 3:2). Jesus tells him that if he is to enter God’s kingdom, he cannot get there naturally, through what he can do. Only the supernatural work of God’s Spirit in making us new — so new that it is a rebirth — can accomplish our salvation. All this is explained by the most famou...

Have you ever been there, in the gloom of despair and defeat when all your expectations exploded in your face? We don’t know what Elijah was expecting. With the power of God so clearly manifested perhaps Elijah thought there would be some change in Ahab, some positive response with the result there were going to be changes in the kingdom of Israel. We aren’t told. We can only guess. But something...

The Old Testament ends on a note of promise, that God would send Elijah to prepare the people for their coming savior, the Messiah. This Elijah turns out to be John the Baptist, who prepares the people by teaching them about repentance. Much to their surprise, the people learned that being born Jewish was of no advantage, and that they too had to learn that they have nothing of value to offer God...

The Story of Jesus Birth is incomplete without… Understanding His Humanity and Divinity   Understanding His Life, Death, Burial and Resurrection.    When we truly believe his finished work on that Cross of Calvary We are united in His Death, Burial and Resurrection. We are united in Him as are dead to Sin and Alive in Christ Jesus.   Series: The Whole Counsel Of God S...

The Book of Habakkuk is a dialogue between Habakkuk the Prophet and YHWH.  * We are able to see Prophet Habakkuk wrestling with God over God’s unfathomable ways. * But when we read this book, we also see Prophet Habakkuk bursting out in Praise of Sovereign Saviour. We see him moving from sobbing, complaining to singing songs of trust and praise. * This book is a fascinating exchange that gets...

God alone is the God of all glory, and so we must turn to Him to bless Him alone. And when we give glory to Him, He in His divine grace has fashioned the world in such a way as to allow us to be a reflected glory.
