Victory In Jesus Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Mar 4, 2018

Jude warns us from false teachings, but in the final two verses of this little letter, Jude gives a doxology that states our security in Jesus.

Something I seldom do and that is switch to another translation of the Bible. This morning I will be using the English Standard Version rather than the New King James Version for our text of Jude 24-25 because of the differences between the different versions based on different Greek manuscripts. ...read more

Jesus And The Temple

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 13, 2018

The temple John 2:13-25 The reading we have just heard from John's gospel might seem rather strange especially as it is at the start of his gospel; but ironically the synoptic gospels have this incident in the temple at the start of His last week just after His triumphant entry into Jerusalem - ...read more

Jesus Anointed

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 15, 2018

The Wounds Of Jesus

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Apr 10, 2018

The wounds of Jesus were very visible after the Resurrection of His body but not always. Why didn't the disciples always recognise the risen Jesus? Was He different in some way?

But if you take notice and look at the detail – Christ is ...read more
