    Go Wash Yourself (Sin Purification)

    Contributed by Michael Bates on Jan 16, 2024
     | 1,460 views

    Unrepentant sin separates us from God. He tells us to repent of our sins and to purify ourselves by spiritually washing them away through Jesus' cleansing blood. After we do that, God will forgive us. God loves us and wants to restore us so that we can be pure, clean, and holy in His sight.

    Let's all read together Isaiah 1:16-18 CSB, 16. Wash yourselves. Cleanse yourselves. Remove your evil deeds from my sight. Stop doing evil. 17 Learn to do what is good. Pursue justice. Correct the oppressor. Defend the rights of the fatherless. Plead the widow’s cause. 18 “Come, let’s ...read more

    One of the inevitable lessons of history is that political plans and agendas are seldom implemented as initially conceived irrespective of the nobility of intention or even piety motivating such aspirations. Evangelical conservatism, also commonly referred to as “The Religious Right”, would prove ...read more

    Love starts with knowing and remembering someone's name. It's the first step in building relationships and showing the love of Jesus.

    How cool is it when someone remembers your name? It makes you feel seen, right? Like you matter. That's where love starts - with a name. Imagine you're at a party, and there's a bowl of M&Ms. You're told you can only pick one. You pick one, and it has a name on it. That's right, a name. That M&M ...read more

    Father Dave’s sermon on the relationship between evangelism, social justice and the Gospel. Why was the Gosepl proclaimed as ’Good news the poor’ and what was Jesus’ vision of Social Justice?

    There has been an unfortunate division in the church, that goes back over many years, between those who emphasise the preaching of the Gospel as the primary work of the church, and those who focus on issues of justice, love, and peace. It is regularly assumed that those who focus on the preaching ...read more
