  • Led By The Spirit ... To Be Tempted?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 22, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,809 views

    Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted. The Word is precise in stating that He was led by the Spirit. Why does the Spirit of God lead anyone to be tempted?

    “Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. And the tempter came and said to him, ‘If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.’ But he answered, ‘It is written, ...read more

  • Christian Courtesy

    Christians are commanded to demonstrate perfect courtesy toward all people. We are called to speak the truth in love; this means that we are to be gentle and gracious toward those who speak ill of us or who attempt to injure us.

    “Remind [the believers] to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarrelling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to ...read more

  • "When Standing Alone..." Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 6, 2017
     | 10,345 views

    Christians who pursue honouring Christ can anticipate standing alone against the enemies of Christ. How shall the child of God react when compelled to stand alone, without even a fellow saint to stand with him or her?

    “At my first defense, no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. May it not be charged against them! But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So, I was rescued from the lion’s mouth. The Lord ...read more

  • Memorial For A Dear Friend

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 11, 2017
     | 12,256 views

    A funeral message delivered on the death of a close friend. Though a good woman, she never professed Christ, nor did her family confess the Saviour. Nevertheless, they were good to me over a long period of time, showing respect for the Faith of Christ.

    “Just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him” [HEBREWS 9:27, 28]. Among the most difficult services over ...read more

  • Honouring Our Parents

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 14, 2017
     | 7,097 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

  • You Are Not Your Own

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 20, 2017
     | 10,763 views

    Sexual sin is ubiquitous in contemporary society; it is often excused among the faithful. We need to live with a focus on the Cross if we will honour God with our bodies in the midst of a world that has surrendered to the appetites of the flesh.

    “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So, glorify God in your body.” [1] Accepting Christ as Saviour transforms life—attitudes and actions take on new significance. The adage ...read more

  • Practising Belonging Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 27, 2017
     | 4,840 views

    What is expected of new believers? The answer to this question is revealed through examining the life of the first congregation after the body was flooded with a multitude of believers following Pentecost.

    “Those who received [Peter’s] word were baptized, and there were added [to the Faith] that day about three thousand souls. “And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs ...read more

  • "Jesus' Rules Of Order"

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 3, 2017
     | 5,212 views

    Contrasting the transformation following the descent of the Spirit with life before His presence among the saints.

    “A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. And he said to them, ‘The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the ...read more

  • Three Gods? No! God In Three Persons!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 10, 2017
     | 8,318 views

    A sermon on the Triunity presented for Trinity Sunday.

    “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” [1] The doctrine of the Triune God is ridiculed as a fiction, depreciated and discounted by those opposed to the Faith. So-called “Christian cults,” Unitarians and Oneness Pentecostals ...read more

  • Becoming A Man

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 17, 2017
     | 7,727 views

    A study of Proverbs 7, and the danger of sexual immorality.

    “My son, keep my words and treasure up my commandments with you; keep my commandments and live; keep my teaching as the apple of your eye; bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart. Say to wisdom, ‘You are my sister,’ and call insight your intimate friend, to keep you ...read more

  • Practising Serving Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 25, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,232 views

    The model that is frequently brought into the church is provided by this world. That model drives the disciple to step on others in order to advance himself. The model Jesus provides, though often neglected, is quite different; it teaches us to serve.

    “A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. And he said to them, ‘The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the ...read more

  • Practising Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 1, 2017
     | 9,043 views

    Christians are commanded to make disciples. The process of discipleship includes: going; baptising; teaching. The responsibility devolves upon each follower of the Christ.

    “It happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. And he said to them, ‘Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?’ And they said, ‘No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.’ And he ...read more

  • Practising Worship Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 9, 2017
     | 5,863 views

    The message is a study of the conduct of the assembly at the Lord's Table

    “In the following instructions, I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part, for there must be factions among you ...read more

  • Practising Worship (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 15, 2017
     | 7,433 views

    Though we speak of worship, I suspect that few of us worship. Perhaps we are uncertain of Whom we should seek or what we should do when we have found Him. This Psalm addresses those issues.

    “Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness. “The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the LORD, over many waters. The voice of the LORD ...read more

  • Practising Witnessing Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 23, 2017
     | 5,460 views

    The Great Commission is given to all Christians. As we go, we are charged to fulfil this mandate to witness. The message explores some parameters of the commission to encourage believers to fulfil Christ's command.

    “Jesus came and said to [the disciples], ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, ...read more
