    A perspective on Matthew 22: 1-14. The cloak of righteousness shows us that we have been placed in a position of honour in the family, in the kingdom of heaven.

    Matthew 22: 1-14 The Wedding Garment At times Jesus spoke in parables. Parables begin as earthly stories, speaking about things we are familiar with, like a wedding banquet. There is a twist to the story that can turn up side down our familiar understanding and reveal something new. They end with ...read more

    Ordinarily a zealot like Simon would have killed a tax collector like Matthew - but he didn't. Why not?

    OPEN: This morning I want to talk to you about the periodic table (we showed a periodic table on the screen). On this periodic table are two elements that I find intriguing.

    A preacher friend of mine once told me, that he had a hard time finding something to preach about. We take a look at the theme of effective preaching.

    Abraham Licoln once said, "I like to watch a preacher who looks like he is fighting off a swarm of bee’s as he preaches." There are varying styles of preaching, some exciting, some very powerful. Yet, sad but true, many are boring. One guy described some preachers as being, "drier than cracker ...read more

    The Bible: A Love Story Pt 1: A Marriage made in Heaven? We often refer to the Old Testament scriptures as falling into the category of the 'Old Covenant'. In their turn, the New Testament scriptures are, more properly, referred to as the 'New Covenant' (Jer.31:31; ...read more

    The Curse Of The Law Does Not Lead To Salvation

    The presence of the Holy Spirit is the start of a new age. It points to the future, and it also points to courage, strength and power that we need to live as Christians in our sin-filled world.

    In the reading we heard from Galatians 3:1-14 a few minutes ago, the apostle Paul is chastising the Galatians in love for wandering away from the truth of God’s Word. He calls them foolish (or having a lack of wisdom) for living by the world’s rules instead of living by God’s ...read more

    Romans 7 delves into the struggles we as Christians experience in this world: wanting to follow God yet often caught up in our sin nature. What does Paul teach us about how we are to look at that reality?

Last week in chapter 6 the big ideas we talked about were the (a) we are dead to sin and alive to Christ and (b) that we have to choose if we are going ...read more

    God planted Israel - both the old and the new - to bear fruit. At harvest time, only the good fruit will be kept.

    This passage is another tough one, dealing with wrath and judgment and punishment. And as you know scaring people into the kingdom is not my favorite style, although it may very well be that fear is a better motivator for some people than it is for me. But in our day and age, it’s more ...read more

    In a world spooning from the advances of the information age, we send and receive so many different messages with so many different devices. So why is God still sending the same old message, the same old way to me? And why does He expect me to pass it on
