Daniel's Prayer Of Confession, Part 1

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 1, 2020

Daniel is about to say sorry to God on behalf of his people, the Jews. In 'Part 1' I look at WHY he prayed (he understood scripture), HOW he prayed (intensely) and WHO he prayed to (his God, a covenant-keeping God, a great and awesome God). Part 2 will be WHAT he prayed.

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Oct 21, 2020

Everywhere you go people are wearing masks. We are nearing the end of a pandemic that has changed our world in so many ways. I’m not saying that you should not wear a mask. But, hasn’t this experience demonstrated to you how important it is to see people’s expressions behind the mask.

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jan 18, 2014

Our goal is to live for one another; yet time and circumstances do not allow us that luxury and we fail. Most importantly we let God down, and when we do so, we feel bad; but Jesus knew that, and so, he tells us what to do, if we can only take his advice.

Solus Christus - Salvation Through Christ Alone Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 17, 2017

Solus Christus is one of the five basic doctrines re-captured after the Reformation. Jesus, the Christ, so saturates the NT that anyone reading through the Bible would be amazed to find that people would think salvation could be found in anyone else!

A couple of weeks ago we took a look at the five “Solas” that were established after the Protestant Reformation came along in 1517. The Latin word Sola simply means something that stands alone, something that is the only ...read more
