    A sermon for Christ the King Sunday exploring what it means for Jesus to be our king!!

    Did you get the leader you wanted yesterday? In Australia we have this great privilege of voting for those who lead our country. Generally we vote on how we perceive things. Whether they are true or not? Our votes are often based on what we want. Some times we even vote to seek some revenge, even ...read more

    How Jesus Responded To Abuse

     | 3,032 views

    On the cross Jesus was mocked, insulted, abused. His response was only to offer forgiveness. We must learn from this.

    “He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God, the chosen One” (23:35). “If you are the King of the Jews; save yourself” (23:37). “Aren’t you the Christ? Save yourself and us” (23:39)! When I’m watching a football match I can’t bear to hear ‘supporters’ shouting negativity, ...read more

     | 2,522 views

    Preached on the Sunday of ’Christ the King’, this sermon addresses the question-What do we understand when we call Christ King? How does his Kingdom impact our lives?

    On this Sunday, the last before Advent, we used the pray that God would stir-up our wills and affections. It was sometimes known as ’Stir Up Sunday’, we now remember in our church calendar this as the feast of ’Christ the King’, that the Christ for whose advent we are going to prepare is the King. ...read more

     | 9,496 views

    Instead of ruling from a throne, Christ the King reigns from the cross. In doing so he invites our allegance with the power of his love.

    Luke 23:33-43 “The Life and Death of a King” INTRODUCTION For the most part, we have a very jaded view of kings and royalty. They have, in a way, outlived their usefulness. We now use them for entertainment purposes. We read about their less-than-kingly exploits in the tabloids, and they are ...read more

    This was the last Sunday of the church year, Christ the King Sunday. And the reading seemed to be odd. Instead of a reading about the glorious majesty of Christ, we see Christ at His lowest point, the cross. It ends up, that since the glory of Christ is t

    The Bible tells us that there were two thieves who died with Him that day, however their eternal souls went in totally different directions as one rebelled against the Savior in the middle, and the other received the Savior into His heart. Three crosses

    Sin is universal! When Jesus said, Father, forgive them... just what was He asking the Father to do...and is there any connection with us in the 21st century?

    Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. Luke 23:34 (NIV) Jesus answered him, I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise. Luke 23:43 (NIV) Menelik was the king of Ethiopia from 1899 to 1913. He heard about a new device that could be used ...read more
