Consequences – You Don’t Avoid Them Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 14, 2025

God has ordained that everything in this universe has consequences. That is why a whole network of scientific laws operate to make all things function. Consequences apply to human behaviour and we look into these. Consequences apply to Christians as well.

CONSEQUENCES – YOU DON’T AVOID THEM [A]. INTRODUCING THE SUBJECT – All of us know that if we trip on a set of stairs, we will tumble down. If we drive too fast around a sharp road bend, we are likely to skid off the road. If a branch separates from a very tall tree, it falls down and hits ...read more

Brokenness - What God Wants From Us Series

Contributed by Oyewole O. Sarumi on Mar 2, 2011

Genesis 9 – Part 6 – Are My Kids Cursed When I Criticise My Parents? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 27, 2010

Sure, Noah behaves badly. He gets drunk and naked in his tent. He fails his family. He fails God in that he’s way out of control. But remember it is Ham’s disrespect, not Noah’s failures that feature in this story.

Genesis 9 – Part 6 – ARE MY KIDS CURSED WHEN I CRITICISE MY PARENTS? What grandfather would curse his grandson? Especially since the bone he had to pick was with his son, not his grandson. And the horrible thing is that God seems to go along with the curse! History shows that ...read more

Getting Even Somehow Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 3, 2017

A Pastoral Response To The Bombing In Bali Series

Contributed by Cameron Horsburgh on Oct 20, 2002

The terrorist attack in Bali came a week before I was to preach on the subject of murder, and a National Day of Mourning was declared for that Sunday. God does work in mysterious ways...

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Nov 3, 2024

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jul 13, 2009

This short sermon seeks to encourage people to be men and women of their word.
