    Thomas - Vilified By Reputation Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 16, 2005
    based on 18 ratings
     | 10,488 views

    It is so easy to characterise ourselves and others on the basis of past actions or occasions when sin has prevailed. The way Jesus deals with Thomas reminds us that we should not be judged on the basis of our reputation, but on the basis of Christ’s grac

    Message John 20:24-29 “Thomas … vilified by reputation” We like to put people into a box don’t we? To be able to look at someone and feel that we have a measure of who they are. We see a single mum … and all too quickly we make a presumption about the sort of person she is. We discover someone is ...read more

     | 4,183 views

    This describes a conversation had by Jesus' fishermen disciples, talking about the miraculous event later, spoken with the local accent. Better heard than read.

    John 21:1-14 – Who’s the Boss? Today, we look at one of my favourite stories in the whole Bible. I can’t exactly tell you why I like it so much. Maybe it’s Jesus’ playful and whimsical nature shining through. Maybe it’s because I grew up in a fishing village, ...read more

    Fitting In To The Family Portrait

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Mar 4, 2012
     | 4,406 views

    As part of the household of God, we represent Jesus in the world, and should look and act like Him.

    Our gospel today from Luke is a precious moment in the life of the nascent Church. We see Jesus praying, with his followers around him. And he tells them—he tells us—about who he is and about who we are. Think of it as a sort of family portrait. Jesus is praying. All of our life, all ...read more

    Stop Doubting And Believe

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Apr 15, 2012
     | 7,644 views

    Through our belief and faithful witness that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, we can influence this community to have life in Jesus name.

    What is our motto, our slogan, at St. Thomas? A Believing Church in an Doubting World. From the very beginning, God called His people to believe, to be faithful, to trust Him. God told Noah to build an ark; and he believed Him and was saved. He told Abram that he’d give him the land of Canaan ...read more

    It's A Masquerade

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,242 views

    As Christians we must realize no matter how much we feel in control, we are not. Satan was so full of pride he thought he could be God. Only when we realize God is in control can we sense God’s power in our lives.

    It's A Masquerade 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 Elder Clarence Weaver "For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of ...read more
