Spiritual Pride

Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 15, 2024

Spiritual pride is a self-made fortress where we think we are superior than others, our doctrine is more correct than others, we think we know God more than others, and that we don’t recognise the need for repentance. We always compare with others.

Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18 The only place where God cannot save you is the place of spiritual pride (God's power is infinite, but God is unwilling to save the proud, until they repent). Unless we repent, God is not willing to save you from ...read more

Sermon # 36 - Learning To Forgive Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 20, 2024

Jonah was happy to receive God’s forgiveness for his disobedience, but was unhappy when God did the same for the people of Nineveh who repented of their sins. Jesus paid with his life for our forgiveness, and God expects us to extend this same forgiveness to those who wrong us in any way.

For our meditation we will study Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) When the prophet Jonah preached to the people in the city of Nineveh, they took his words seriously, repented, and had a change of heart. God relented from punishing the people of Nineveh, and ...read more

Sermon # 49 - Value What God Values Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 14, 2025

Jonah had more pity for the plant that gave him a little shade than for the people of Nineveh who had repented and thereby were saved from God’s wrath and judgement. May we learn to value people over things and traditions and love them like Jesus did.

We read in Jonah 4:10, “The LORD said to him, "This plant grew up in one night and disappeared the next; you didn't do anything for it and you didn't make it grow—yet you feel sorry for it!” (GNB) Jonah sat outside the city of Nineveh and eagerly watched to see what would become of ...read more

This touches on the inmates that convert to Christ while incarcerated and, often times, the hypocritical criticisms directed towards them.
