    Part six focuses on how we fail in our faith at times but it does not mean that we must remain failures. When we fail and/or fall down we continue to get back up.

    The Rock And The Hard Place – Part 6 When We Fall – Get Back Up Scripture: Matthew 17:14-21; Romans 12:3 Introduction: In my message last week I told you that we have all had times when we have failed in our faith. We have all experienced situations where we “thought” we ...read more

    10th Sunday After Pentecost

    Christ teaches us that our faith, however small it may be, is very much alive, very active and powerful! He compares the growth of our faith to the raising of a tiny mustard seed. If we keep it alive and nature it, we can move mountains with it.

    Our Gospel reading this morning deals with the topic of faith. Last Sunday St. Matthew told us about Simon Peter’s faith and his momentary loss of it when he took his eyes off Jesus. In today’s Gospel reading Jesus tells us that the strength of our faith determines our ability to ...read more

    Aren’t you glad for the grace God extends to us, even when we don’t deserve it, even when He knows how were going to act after we receive it, He still continually offers it, because He loves us!

    Only one? “"Where Are The Others?" Ill.

    It is faith which sees the glorious light of God even in our darkest night of suffering, which brings transformation to those who are oppressed, depressed and defeated. It is this faith that reveals the glory of God, and castes out demons.

    Have Faith In God

    Have faith in God. Focus not on the size of your faith but the size of your God. Who do you believe in is important. Do not shift your focus away from God and onto your self, your skills, your knowledge or past accomplishments.

    [Adapted from a chapter in Rev Edmund Chan’s book Growing Deep in Faith.] A young boy was being tormented by a demon. ?He has seizures and is suffering greatly, and would even throw himself into the fire or water. ?His family was at a lost what to do.

    Whether the boy was a lunatic or suffered from epilepsy is not really the issue. Fact of the matter is the Church suffered from a seizure of unbelief that cripples the ministry of Christ.

    Before we talk about our text this evening we need to first ask ourselves do we truly, honestly, sincerely, want to see our Lord’s return. I ask because the Bible gives us four things that must occur before the Second Coming of Christ and they are all within our scope of responsibility and are ...read more
