Hopefully, as we have been meeting the Lord in praise and prayer and in communion, we continue to experience His transforming presence and power in our lives. 2.

They are, however, not to be regarded as means of salvation. We also do not require water baptism for membership. Why do we say this? Being saved ...read more

I Sam. 16:4-10 The man highly favoured was not around; he was in the bush but was ...read more

    Before the Lord left this earth, He left us, His church, two rites, ordinances or sacraments. Both The Lords Supper and Baptism were meant to be a comfort and something to bring His body closer to one another. In fact the two have caused more division among God’s people than any other ...read more

    The Gift of Baptism Scripture: Acts 8:26-40 We’re going to consider several passages of scripture today, but this one is the key passage for what I think is the main consideration for today - at least it was for me this week. Today is Baptism Sunday. It’s a very special day in the ...read more
