Fellow-Citizens In The Commonwealth Of Israel Series

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jan 30, 2011

This talk seeks to unpack what it means to be fellow citizens within the Commonwealth of Israel - something that is now a fact for every believer, whether we are a Jewish believer in Yeshua, or a Gentile believer in Jesus.

Whenever scripture says, “Therefore” (2:11) it would be wrong to try to understand what follows without referring back to what has just been said. I guess I could say please listen to Phil Wason’s excellent sermon from last week on our Church website; but instead I’ll give a quick summary of ...read more

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 15, 2023

The church was established by the Lord Jesus Christ to proclaim the message of salvation to a lost and dying world. We need to remember that and repent of proclaiming anything else.

Mantles For Modern Times

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 30, 2022
