    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,787 views

    The key to Christian living is found in our union with Christ, both in His death and in His resurrection.

    THE RESURRECTION LIFE. Romans 6:1-14. It is decidedly unpleasant when anybody is subjected to false accusations and malicious rumours.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,636 views

    The idea of God hardening Pharaoh's heart gnaws at our sensibilities... but we know that the LORD is sovereign not only in His mercy, but also in His judgement.

    THE HARDENING OF PHARAOH’S HEART. Romans 9:17-18. The book of Genesis ends with a delightful illustration of how God works all things, even bad things, for the good of His people.

  • I Believe In The Resurrection

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 27, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,291 views

    I BELIEVE IN THE RESURRECTION. 1 Corinthians 15:1-34. Sometimes it is necessary for Christian people to get back to the basics of their faith, to remind themselves what they are about.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,300 views

    The need for reconciliation arises because of our estrangement from God on account of our sin. The mediator of reconciliation is God. The cost of reconciliation is the death of Christ. The result of reconciliation is a new relationship with God.

    THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21. This passage directly confronts us with the subject of reconciliation. It requires spiritual thinking: no longer regarding people from a worldly point of view - “according to the flesh” - and certainly not regarding Christ from a worldly ...read more
