    Honouring Our Parents

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 14, 2017
     | 7,150 views

    Christian children are instructed to honour their parents. This is one of the few direct commands to children in the congregation. I fear this command is neglected among the faithful today. The message is a study of what the Apostle wrote.

    “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honour your father and mother’ (this is the first commandment with a promise), ‘that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.’” [1] The last days are described in frightful detail in Paul’s final letter to ...read more

We are about to embark on a transformative exploration of Luke 2:22-40, a passage that will call us to reframe our resolutions as intentions, to ...read more

    The salvation we have in Jesus is pictured for us in symbols, is based on forgiveness made possible through his atoning death, and ultimately results in an altered universe.

    Reality and Symbols of Reality (Colossians 2:11-15) 1. All of us know what it is like to search for something that is broken or wrong. 2. Perhaps your car won’t start: it is not the battery or alternator. What is it? 3. Somewhere you have a hole puncher; it is not with the stapler, ruler, ...read more

    God wants His people to get a glimpse of the future so as to live for the future!

    Did you know that about 1/3 of the Bible is prophecy, about future events! Why does God give us a glimpse of the future? Last week we noted at least 4 reasons why God gives us a glimpse of the future: 1. God is always in control! 2. It encourages us to be faithful, godly Christians. 3. Future ...read more

    We are saved by grace through faith, but what does that faith entail?

    Before the Lord left this earth, He left us, His church, two rites, ordinances or sacraments. Both The Lords Supper and Baptism were meant to be a comfort and something to bring His body closer to one another. In fact the two have caused more division among God’s people than any other ...read more
