Christ Breaks Down The Dividing Walls

Contributed by Brian William on Nov 10, 2005

So many people today live "without hope and without God" (Eph. 2:12), yet we build up walls that divide us from sharing the gospel with them. Christ tears down these walls and builds up the true church in its place.

[I started the sermon at the altar rail that goes across the entire width of the front of the sanctuary.] Imagine, for a moment, that when you walked into church this morning that you received a big surprise. Imagine that in the past week, a wall had been erected, right about where the altar rail ...read more

Fellow-Citizens In The Commonwealth Of Israel Series

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jan 30, 2011

This talk seeks to unpack what it means to be fellow citizens within the Commonwealth of Israel - something that is now a fact for every believer, whether we are a Jewish believer in Yeshua, or a Gentile believer in Jesus.
