    The Christian In The Church

    Contributed by Ian Lyall on Sep 27, 2006
     | 2,416 views

    All Christians are called into God’s Church. And all are given gifts that they may play their part in the life and ministry in the Church. Each person’s gifting needs recognition, not least by church leadership

    In that passage from Ephesians chapter four that we heard, Paul begins by saying that he wants his Christian readers to live lives that are worthy of the calling they have received; lives which are ’worthy’ in the sense of being worth-while and of refelcting that calling- that their calling by God ...read more

    The Priority Of Life

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 20, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,632 views

    Jesus did the will of the Father and finished His work. He knows His purpose in life, set the right priority, and has a passion for the lost. We want to know our purpose, set the priority and develop the passion exemplified by Christ.

    Jesus says, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.” • Of course, this couldn’t mean that Jesus do not have to eat. • Jesus uses this incident to highlight to His disciples what is important. Someone said, “The greatest danger in life is in permitting the urgent ...read more

    God desires that every one of His children would discover their destiny – the good plans that He has for their lives. The starting point for this is a God encounter where we hear His call, and respond with faith and obedience.

But for confirmation, he decided to visit a fortuneteller. The fortuneteller brought the frog in and gazed into her crystal ball. She said, “Oh, I see ...read more

    I explained the meaning of the gospel, which is the subject of the whole bible, the New and Old Testament, in terms of why is it necessary to know the gospel to repent from sins, thus to have right relationship with God.

    What and Why The Gospel? Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. He also said to them, "This is what is written: the Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, ...read more

    Coming! We Have His Word. 1) Scoffers foolishly deny it; 2) Believers happily anticipate it.
