     | 2,380 views

    Until Joseph understood what was going on, he was trying to figure out a way to get out of the commitment. The Bible says that he did not want to expose her and publicly disgrace her.

    Advent 2015 - Week 4 - The God-Man

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 24, 2015
     | 2,953 views

    Who was it exactly that was placed into the manger that first Christmas morning? Was it God but less than God or fully God? Was He fully human or only veiled in flesh? Like the Trinity the Incarnation boggles the limited human mind. Glory to God!

    John 1:1-5, 14 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. “In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. ...read more

    The Innkeeper And His Guests Missed The First Advent Series

    Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Nov 20, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,680 views

    It would be tragic to leave Jesus out of Christmas 2021 because I am too busy or because I am so absorbed in my own little world. That’s what happened the First Christmas, and that same time have been happening in many homes Christmas after Christmas.

    INTRODUCTION CUSTOM BLOCK Advent means the arrival; the appearance and that term is usually associated with someone who is notable. So, it is fair to say that those who lived in the times of the Old Testament were looking for the Advent (the coming, the appearance) of Christ. In fact, Advent is not ...read more

    Advent 2021 - Christmas Sunday - Pointing Fingers

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 18, 2021
     | 2,815 views

    Is it OK to point literally or figuratively? There is a lot of pointing going on in the nativity story, the Gospels, the rest of the New Testament and in the Old Testament. What is the pointing all about? It's all about Jesus!

    Christmas Sunday - Pointing Fingers Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.

    We live between two monumental events: the first Advent, when Jesus came as a baby in Bethlehem, and the second Advent, when He will return as King of kings and Lord of lords. This period is not a passive waiting game; it is an active, purposeful, and hope-filled time.

    The birth of Jesus is a tiny part of the plan of salvation and yet it is a gigantic step in that it accomplishes the incarnation. Have we gotten the priorities reversed in the church as well as in society?

    John 3:16-18 “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. “Whoever believes in Him is ...read more

    The Beacon Of Hope From The Wilderness- Advent 3

     | 5,306 views

    The third candle of our wreath is said to symbolise John the Baptist, who I believe to be “The Beacon of Hope from the wilderness”.

    The Beacon of Hope from the wilderness Text Isaiah 40: 1-5 (NIV), John 1: 19- 23 (NIV) In our first Sunday of Advent we looked briefly at the Patriarchs Noah and Abraham as pointers of promise, in particular the promise of the first coming of the Messiah as predicted in the book of Genesis.

     | 2,239 views

    Today’s text reminds us once again, that Jesus was and is and is to come. Jesus was: Jesus was in heaven and left His glory to become obedient. Jesus is: Jesus is the author and perfecter of our faith. Jesus is to come: Jesus is to come again in glory.

    WAKE UP! Text: Luke 21:25 -36 “And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world.

    The peace of Jerusalem is tied up with the house of the Lord.

    LET US GO TO THE HOUSE OF THE LORD. Psalm 122:1-9. The “house of the LORD” encompasses this Psalm (Psalm 122:1; Psalm 122:9). Jerusalem, in turn, encompassed the house of the LORD (Psalm 122:2; Psalm 122:3; Psalm 122:7). Jerusalem thus became the place of pilgrimage and thanksgiving (Psalm ...read more
