The Compassion Of God Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 21, 2022

The message of Hosea 11 is for you and me, not only wayward Israel. The family life of Hosea and his wife Gomers serve as is an illustration of how our sin breaks the heart of God. Now the focus is on God’s compassion and redemption.

Compassion would be at the risk of our own life; we jump in and rescue the drowning man. Compassion is much deeper than concern. In Hosea 11 we ...read more

Sinner’s Prayer

Contributed by Glenn Abel on Jul 6, 2012

That Sinner!

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on May 23, 2014

A sermonette (I will use this at rest home services) about a bloke who had it so right with God it really make things quite messy in his relationships with his fellow man. Hey I'm just pleased I'm not like him. ;)

Jesus had a subtle and sometimes not so subtle way of getting through to people. I like how he delivers a message to a group of people who thought they had it bang on right with God, to a group of people who were confident that they had it right with God. Jesus tells them a story that actually cuts ...read more
