    The thing that pointed me to God when I was in the sewer of life, was not a story, or an illustration, or an impassioned altar call, it was God’s word.

    THE PRIMACY OF GOD’S WORD JOSHUA 1:1-9 Josh 1:1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ aide: 2 "Moses my servant is dead.

    Christ talks about 4 different soils, each representing a heart and how receptive it is to God’s Word. How receptive are you to God’s Word?

    Here is one for the teachers in the crowd today! It was at the end of the school year, and a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts from her pupils. The florists son handed her a gift. She shook it, held it overhead, and said, "I bet I know what it is. Some flowers." "That’s ...read more

    The Seed Of God's Word

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 18, 2007
    based on 11 ratings
     | 17,247 views

    The key to a fruitful and abundant life is with our response to the Word. The way we receive the Word is critical to having a fruitful and blessed life. The seed is productive only if the soil is receptive. The Word is good seed; are you the good soil?

    This is a parable. Jesus explains: “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man” (Mt 13:37) • The field is the world, people of the world (13:38). • And the seed is the Word of God. The sower throws seed onto the ground. God is speaking to the world. • The seed falls onto the ground without ...read more

    This sermon is a lesson about the importance of life’s interruptions.

    It happened only a few weeks ago. After my normal shift on the graveyard I had gone home to rest. Some time in the middle of my sleep Storm came and woke me up. In her hand she held the phone. “It’s the police,” is all she said. A thousand questions went through my mind. “Did I do ...read more

    A look at the prophetic, spiritual meaning behind the three major Feasts of the Mosaic Covenant.

    In Colossians 2:16-17, we have the Apostle Paul telling the brethren that they were to no longer allow some people to tell them that they must - to be good Christians - observe the various ordinances and statutes of the old Mosaic Law. Paul explains that the various parts of the Mosaic Law have ...read more

    A factual lesson on the great attributes of the Bible to show how critical it is for us to read, study and apply God’s Word.

    WHEN IT COMES TO THE BIBLE, I FOUND THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION OF GOD’S HOLY WORD FROM AN ANONYMOUS AUTHOR: “THIS BOOK IS THE MIND OF GOD, THE STATE OF MAN, THE WAY OF SALVATION, THE DOOM OF SINNERS, AND THE HAPPINESS OF BELIEVERS.

    Keep the faith, persevere to the end, because you’re already part of his eternal kingdom, already one of his priests able to come into his presence to worship him and to serve him.

    It’s hard to imagine what life was like for Christians in the first century. They were a marginalised minority, looked down on by Jews, Greeks and Romans alike. But as if that wasn’t enough, as the century drew to its end various bouts of persecution broke out against them led by the Roman emperor. ...read more

    Gods sends a message to the Churches of Asia encouraginf them to persever to the end and promising a reward to those who do.

    I receive lots of letters each week, from various organisations, and I have to say, most of them end up in the cardboard file on my floor - waiting to be recycled. Some, though, I take more notice of than others. Some I deal with immediately. Others I put in the pile in the centre of my desk to be ...read more

    we need to resist the pressures of our culture to conform unthinkingly to the status quo and to compromise on the major principles of our faith. We need to recover the radical edge of Jesus’ teaching, that turns the values of the world upside down.

    It’s interesting how we can go from the two letters we saw last week where one church thought they were alive and were actually dead and another thought they were as good as dead but actually had plenty of life in them, to the final letter of the seven where the church is neither one thing nor the ...read more
