    Eve: The First Temptation 15 Do not love the world  or the things that belong to  the world.

     | 3,627 views

    This is the 11th sermon in our series on John's Gospel. In this sermon I discuss how God's sovereignty and our faith work in unison to accomplish salvation.

    Selected to Life or Condemned Already? (Gospel of John Part 11) Text: John 3:16 – 21 It’s hard to believe, but this is our 11th week in John’s Gospel already, and we’re just cruising right along… We made it to chapter three a couple of weeks ago, but since this is such a well-known chapter, and ...read more

    John learned the importance of love and he encourages every Christian to realize that fact. Obviously being with Jesus made a big difference in his life. Spend time with Jesus and it will change anyone!

    Alba 6-23-2024 TAKE THE OLD AND MAKE IT NEW I John 2:7-11 Last Sunday we looked at I John 2:3-6 and found three things that help us to answer the question, “Do You Know Jesus?” There we found that keeping His commands, exhibiting His love and walking like He walked are markers that will define ...read more

    The Day Of Time And Timelessness.

    In Revelation, John writes several times over that God was and God is, and God is to come. -I think that makes God always relevant. With that said, listen to ‘The Day Of Time and Timelessness.’

    The Day Of Time and Timelessness. Isaiah 53:1-12NLT Our Daily Bread- The person we know as Saint Nicholas (Saint Nick) was born around AD 270 to a wealthy Grecian family. Tragically, his parents died when he was a boy, and he lived with his uncle who loved him and taught him to follow God. When ...read more

    After centuries of silence, God sends John in the wilderness to call for repentance and point to Jesus, who will baptize with the Holy Spirit (Mark 1:2–8). The wait is over; respond to the King.

    John's 6th sign. Jesus calls us to cast off bitterness and blame, receive His mercy, and follow Him with eyes wide open to new life.

    Part One Jesus was on His way out of Jericho. Passover crowds filled the road. The noise of merchants and pilgrims echoed off the stone walls.

    Growing In Spirituality SermonCentral

     | 672 views

    In 'Growing in Spirituality', we explore John 15:1-5 where Jesus outlines the process of spiritual growth. This involves understanding God as the gardener, Jesus as the true vine, and ourselves as the branches.

    Salvation through faith in Christ has two dimensions: the assurance of eternal life in heaven and the call to live for God on earth. While we often hear that we should live for God, we are rarely taught how to do it. In John 15:1-11, Jesus provides a clear explanation of the process of spiritual ...read more

    Jesus's challenge to the rich young man - Does it leave us discombobulated and feeling uncomfortable? Which of the many interpretations is correct? [This sermon was preached 13 October 2024 when I was the guest preacher at St Nicholas Church Perivale in West London]

    A very wealthy man came to his vicar and said, “Father, I’m having a problem with this tithing thing. You see I made £500,000 dollars last year.
