Sermon # 48 - No Room For Rebellion Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 12, 2025

Jonah’s heart was hard and right to the end he was not willing to accept God’s forgiveness and compassion that was extended to the people of Nineveh. Rebellion against God is sin and if there is such a sin in our lives, may we set it aside and walk in obedience to the Holy Spirit.

Sermon # 2 - Choose The Truth Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 26, 2025

In a world that thrives on lies, as children of God we must decide to follow Jesus who is the Truth. If we do not stand firm on the truth, we will find ourselves compromise with the lies of Satan, and making choices that are contradictory to the true values that God has set for us in His word.

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 4, 2024

When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.
