We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 28, 2023

We continue to look at Satan’s schemes, and this time, at the resuscitation of Sodom and what homosexuality does; and at affirmative equality and not ability; and children being ruined in education; and how a nation can be undermined. Also demonic possession, influence, and oppression.

The Christian - The Judgement Seat Of Christ – Part 2 Of 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 27, 2025

Above all things God wants faithfulness. Rewards attach to a faithful servant. God is a God of small things and in quietness and confidence is our strength. We look at the quality of works and the testing by fire. To not make the mistake of “TRYING to do” for a reward as that is wrong.

THE CHRISTIAN - THE JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST – PART 2 OF 3 In the last study we opened up this subject to see both the joy and seriousness of it. This time we will consider more aspects of The Judgement Seat of Christ including what brings reward and the quality of deeds done for Christ. I will ...read more

How To Serve As An Effective Sender - 3 John 1:7,8

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jul 7, 2002

Many Christians are missing out on some of the greatest blessings available in the New Testament and they do not even realize it. In our passage this morning, John recognized missionaries as co-laborers worth investing in.

A Tale Of The Unexpected !

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Feb 10, 2006

John was shocked when the sinless Jesus asked to be baptised. Jesus identifies with us in his baptism. We identify with him when we are baptised and we too can receive God’s Spirit! Truly this is a tale of the unexpected.

The Baptism of Jesus must surely qualify as a ‘Tale of the Unexpected’! Have you ever been somewhere or seen something which was the exact opposite of what you were expecting? Have you ever been waiting expectantly for an event, only for the event itself to come as a total surprise or even a big ...read more

Lessons From A Church 8 Years Away From Death

Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Feb 10, 2019

Is our church focussed on what it's members prefer? Or we are fishers of people who get out of bed on a cold dark night because that is what fish prefer?

“To say that the room was tense would be a massive understatement. It was eight years before the death of the church, but few in that room could have predicted the church’s demise. The church had bounced back a bit during the past year. Since most of the members would not allow any {change to the ...read more
