    This is a message dealing with Jesus as the fulfilment of the Mystery of Godliness from 1 Timothy 3:14-16. Because of being preached a day before Canada Day, it also has a slant toward that.

     | 12,319 views

    This is a very well-known story, certainly to Christians, but I'm not sure that Christians really understand the full import to them of this story. We'll not just be touching unbelievers, but we will all be getting a touch, hopefully, from the Spirit of God from this account.

As I have been announcing, I'm going to speak this morning, on the subject of 'Getting Past the Crowd to Christ'. This is a very well-known story, certainly to ...read more
