Ephesians 5 On Marriage

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 30, 2025

The Biblical view of marriage is very different indeed to the contemporary world's view of marriage. The Bible demands a huge amount from us. But through a Christian marriage, we can model Christ's relationship to the church!

INTRODUCTION After our relationship to God, marriage is the most important relationship we get into. But society’s view of marriage has changed dramatically over the past half century or so. What I would like to do today is give you two pictures. The first picture is what I’m calling the ...read more

What Is The Lord Saying To The Church?

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 21, 2012

Using Revelation 2 and 3 as a spring-board, this is the talk given at our Church annual meeting 2012. I believe the Lord is calling us to return to him as our first love, and to listen to his voice through the Bible and in prayer.

[A note to the reader: This is not an expository sermon. I was asking the Lord what was his message for our 2012 church annual meeting, and Revelation 2 and 3 seemed to be the answer. What follows is a local attempt to interpret these chapters to our situation] What is the Lord saying to His ...read more
