    we are the life of Christ, the salt of the earth

    Our faith must be strong enough to stand firm and not look for “middle” positions.

    Thursday of 6th Week in Easter 2018 Reformation/Revolution Our New Testament readings today show two approaches to proclaiming the Gospel of Christ. In Acts, we are seeing Paul at the beginning of his second missionary journey, probably about the year 50 AD. He has just been to what we know as the ...read more

    The church is called to bear witness to Jesus, but this witness is primarily the witness of the Holy Spirit.

    THE PARACLETE. John 15:26-27. I. CONTEXT Jesus said, ‘I will pray the Father, and (1) He shall give you another Comforter’ (John 14:16). The word Paraclete, here translated as ‘Comforter’, speaks of One who draws alongside. The same word can be translated as ‘Helper’, ‘Counsellor’ or ...read more

     | 6,055 views

    Never has there been such a lack of confidence and understanding of the Bible than there is today and never has there been a time that we need to have that confidence and understanding than we do today. This outline will help to do that.

    Memorial Day 2013 Monday of 8th Week in Course Gaudium et Spes The rich young man, we read here, responded to the challenge of Jesus by walking away. It says his “face fell.” That doesn’t capture the full emotional meaning of the Greek text. It uses the word stygnasas. The ...read more

    A short talk for our Billericay team Maundy Thursday Communion. Jesus washed the feet of his disciples shortly before he was betrayed, let down and denied. Whose feet would Jesus want us to wash?

    Jesus washed the feet of Judas Iscariot – the man who later that evening betrayed Jesus when he led a detachment of soldiers and officials to arrest him. Many of us have at some point and in some way betrayed people that love us. I know that I have. Jesus washed the feet of his disciples who ...read more

    This Palm Sunday Jesus struggles with the Elders of the church, He struggles with Pilate, and finally he must struggle with his fate.

    Forgiveness Luke 23:34 Luke tells us about the passion of Jesus. He recounts in painful detail how Jesus stood before Pilate and Herod, was sentenced to death and was crucified and killed. Today’s story is all about struggle, not celebration. Passion not palms. A cross, not a crown. 1. ...read more

    Peter and John were arrested after they healed a man born lame, as recorded in Acts 3. Now they're on trial, the next day, before a group of Israel's leaders. What happened next? (This is another outline from a miniseries on Acts I preached several years ago.)

    Introduction: In Acts 3, Luke records how Peter and John were on their way to the Temple to observe and take part in the afternoon time of prayer. While on the way there, they saw and then healed a man who had been lame from his birth. Peter preached another message to the crowd who had gathered in ...read more
