    The Flying Scroll Series

    God has promised restoration to the repentant remnant but before that period of blessing can dawn, God must deal with stubborn & unrepentant sinners. If the way of Grace is not accepted, judgment must come.

    ZECHARIAH 5: 1-4 THE FLYING SCROLL (The Sixth Vision) [Micah 4:1-8] The first five visions are certainly prophecies of hope and of glory. They abound in most glorious promises of restoration and enlargement of temporal and spiritual prosperity and blessing. These promises in the full and ...read more

    THIS IS A SERMON I GAVE ON GOOD FRIDAY.

    BIBLICAL EVANGELISM AND THE THREE CROSSES LUKE 23:26-44 THE CROSS HAS BEEN THE CENTRAL SYMBOL OF CHRISTIANITY THROUGHOUT HISTORY. IT MAY HAVE DIFFERENT FORMS AND APPEAR IN DIFFERENT PLACES, BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO THINK ABOUT THE CHURCH WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THE CROSS. THE CROSS REMINDS US OF ...read more

    This is a 1st person drama message depicting the thief on Jesus’ right hand. The setting is paradise.

    Character: Theif on Right Hand of Jesus The Setting: Paradise (Come onto stage dressed in white robes) I never expected the robes. I never expected a second chance. My name? It’s not important. But the story I share is. My life had been a pathetic mess. As long as I can remember, I ...read more

    As a child I really enjoyed playing hide and go seek. Little did I realize as a child how much this game of hide and seek paralleled the Return - The Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

    As a child I really enjoyed playing... hide and go seek. I loved it ...no matter if ...I was the one hiding ... trying not to get caught, ... or if I was the one seeking; ......who was trying to catch those hiding... unexpectedly. Although I have not played in quite some time, ......I do ...read more

    The coming of Jesus will be like a thief in the night – unannounced and without prior warning. Our call as Christians is to be watchful, not by trying to guess an unrevealed time and season, but by living as those who ate in the light.

    You can listen to the full sermon here:- http://nec.org.au/strong-and-ready/ Message 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 Surprised But Not Napping Why is it that there are so many modern Christians who seem to think that we are somehow smarter than the first century Christians.

    During the crucifixion a man who was a certified sinner asked Jesus for forgiveness. Forgiveness was freely given and he died with no good works to his name. This is grace in action.

    Message Luke 23:39-43 From Sinner to Saint Through out history the last words of people have become notorious. Let me give you a few examples. Oscar Wilde, who was a 19th century author, looked around his hospital ward and said, “This wallpaper is horrendous, either it goes or I go”. Just ...read more

    The Just Society And Why Judas Was Judged Harshly

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022
     | 867 views

    Somehow it seems very strange to ask Judas about the virtue of justice.

    Monday of Holy Week I don’t understand why people these days feel like they have to defend Judas from the accusations that he was a thief and a jerk. He was a thief and a jerk. Today’s Gospel shows him accusing Jesus of sinning against the virtue of justice, by allowing an expensive ointment to ...read more

    He is, as Torah teaches, “slow to anger.” That’s very different from most of us.

    Twenty-fifth Sunday in Course 2023 All of Scripture is useful to those whose purpose in life is to attain union with the Blessed Trinity. But there are probably a hundred verses that stand out as critical in the most important pursuit of our existence on earth. Two of these, surely, come from ...read more

    Anyone could have hung as a thief next to Jesus - including one of us.

    The Passion Week story is filled with characters that we could, and perhaps should, spend time examining because they illustrate the human race of every historical age. The status quo is present in the persons of the Pharisees and Sanhedrin. Every age of history has such people - religious or not. ...read more

    The atheist does not find God the same reason the thief does not find a policeman.

    WHAT IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES. James 4:13-17 As far as I know Madelyn O’Hare is the most known atheist in America. She is the one who had school prayer outlawed. I have not heard a great deal of her in quite some time now. I did hear that she might have become a believer in Jesus Christ, I hope so. ...read more

    Matthew now introduces us to a fascinating part of the story of the birth of Jesus by introducing a group of mysterious travelers who have come seeking Jesus. There are three things in this story that proved that they really were “Wise men."

    “Wise Enough to Seek Him” Matthew 2: 1-12 For many of us the joy and anticipation of the season has been reduced to figuring out what we can afford to give our loved ones. It is from the ...read more
