    A REASONABLE OFFER. Isaiah 1:1, Isaiah 1:10-20. The opening of this wonderful Book of Isaiah introduces us to a Ministry which, on a conservative estimate, spanned some 64 years.

    Scourge Of The Tongue

    Contributed by James Dina on Jul 20, 2020
     | 13,442 views

    The tongue is a small weapon. It is a great mercy to be delivered from the tongue. The tongue was originally made to be an organ of God’s praise but it has now become an instrument of unrighteousness. The tongue inflicts greater wounds than the sword.

    SCOURGE OF THE TONGUE Job 5:21 ---- "You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes." The tongue is a small weapon, but it is a cutting one; it is like a scourge ...read more

    The Logic Of Pursuing Godliness Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 11, 2020
     | 2,580 views

    Paul clearly taught salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Such a teaching could easily raise two objections Paul addresses. And in doing so, he charts God’s agenda for holy living for the believer.

    The Logic of Pursuing Godliness (Romans 6:1-23) 1. It must be tough right now for to take the Census, with Covid and all. 2. I have a funny Jewish joke about this. The census taker comes to the Goldman house. “Does Louis Goldman live here?” he asks. “No,” replies Goldman. “Well, then, what is ...read more

    A sermon for Ash Wednesday - for a UK congregation

    Joel 2:1-2 & 12-17 John 8:1-11 I’m beginning, totally unsuitably for Lent, with an expression of pride. I’m very proud of my collection of the complete set of Carry On films - it’s the earthy British humour of the 1960s and 1970s at its best (or worst, depending upon your point ...read more

     | 1,988 views

    Do we have anything in common with the first-century church of Ephesus? Unfortunately, yes we do. Too much have we abandoned the love of Christ we had at first.

    Monday of 33rd Week in Course 2020 In this penultimate week of the Church year, the Church gives us snippets from the Book of Revelations, the last and in some ways most difficult book of the New Testament.

    The Catechism teaches that the spouses are ministers of the sacrament of Matrimony by expressing their consent before the Church. They confer Christ’s grace upon each other (no. 1623).

    Twenty-eighth Sunday in Course 2020 I encountered today’s Gospel for the first time when I was a teenager.

    The Wedding Model Of Communion

    Contributed by Dale London on Jun 1, 2022
     | 2,203 views

    Throughout the Gospels, Jesus keeps returning to the model of marriage to describe our relationship with God. We often miss is the significance of our covenant of betrothal to Christ as solemnised in the Lord's Supper.

    Many of you will have noted how I keep coming back to the subject of covenant when we come together for communion; that when we share the cup – even figuratively – we are reaffirming an agreement we have with God. The agreement is that we accept the gift of Christ’s death on the cross as atonement ...read more
