    What Shall I Render To The Lord

    Contributed by Antonius Fu on Apr 30, 2022
     | 6,464 views

    Have you ever thought about the grace you receive from God? What is that? What shall we render to the Lord for all of His benefits toward us? Through this psalm, the psalmist gives us invaluable answers.

    Today, from Psalm 116 we will learn how to be grateful and reflect on the question: "What shall I render to the Lord?" This is the question of David's self-examination, as mentioned in Psalm 116:12, What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? I believe that such ...read more

     | 1,489 views

    Do you ever wonder what it means to “believe?” Today we are going to consider what it means to “believe” by examining the passage from Numbers 21 alongside the gospel reading from John 3.

    Is it true that you just believe in Jesus and you are saved? When I first became a Christian at the age of 16 and was taking confirmation classes at Cocoa Presbyterian Church, I remember Reverend Flanagan telling us that if you believe in Jesus you will be saved. Right away that statement raised ...read more

    We think we know what we want. But everything is temporary. Only Jesus is the eternal life you're looking for and need.

    Jesus shares a story about a landowner who leases his vineyard. After he leased his property the landowner moved away. When it was time to harvest the grapes the landowner sent three employees to pick up his share of the harvest. The tenants decided they didn't want to pay rent so they beat up ...read more

    What Is The True Meaning Of Christmas?

    You cannot sensibly divorce "Christ the King" from Christmas - for why else would we remember the birth of a child born in an obscure part of the world 200 years ago unless he was different

    WSG 20-11-2011 With Christmas just around the corner and this being the last Family Service before the New Year, I wanted to ask the question Why is Christmas so special? What is there about Jesus Christ that marks him out as being different from all the other babies born in Israel 2000 years ...read more

    Today, we’re looking at the ministry of John the Baptist. You may think of his ministry as being a long time ago and happening in a place far away… but the fact is, Jesus has called you to the same kind of ministry today.

    Just a few days after Christmas 2002, a man walked into a Baptist mission hospital in the Middle Eastern country of Yemen. He calmly sat in the waiting room with his pink slip that told security he was a returning patient. He sat patiently and quietly waited there with the other patients. Then ...read more

    God calls his people to be pure. We cannot succumb to the allure of contemporary culture, approving what is done in society if we will honour the Lord.

    “I have made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I gaze at a virgin? What would be my portion from God above and my heritage from the Almighty on high? Is not calamity for the unrighteous, and disaster for the workers of iniquity? Does not he see my ways and number all my steps? “If I ...read more

    Which day is THE Special Day? Saturday or Sunday? The Old Testament Shabbat or the New Testament Lord's Day? What do you think?

    Exodus 20:8-11 This Special Day! As I prepared this series, I realized how little we actually preach or teach on the Ten Commandments as if they are neither important nor relevant. They are both. It was very enlightening to me to preach through them. I learned a lot! I trust this series will ...read more

    When Jesus faced His temptation in the Wilderness He teaches us how we can face our temptations.

    Today we are going to begin to look at the Temptation of Jesus Christ. In Oscar Wilde's play “Lady Windemere's Fan” Lord Darlington says “I can resist anything but temptation”. It is said rather flippantly in the play, but for us it is a good starting point. Should we try to resist ...read more
