We conclude our series “That They May Believe’ and Lloyd Owen Reece looks at how the resurrection of Jesus speaks to our faith
Key Text: John 1:1-13 How can you know for sure that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God? An old hymn put it, “You ask me how I know He lives? He lives within my heart.” Fine but that’s really subjective. A Buddhist might say that Buddha lives within his heart. How can you […]
Key Text: 2 Timothy 2:1-13 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, the offspring of David, as preached in my gospel. v.8 Paul mentions two specific ways to remember Jesus: Remember Him as risen from the dead. And remember Him as the offspring of David. Why these two things about Jesus? Romans 5:7 For one […]
Jesus also appealed to His Father’s testimony through scripture. The same Scriptures many looked to for eternal life John 5:39a Scriptures which themselves bore witness to Jesus John 5:39b From Luke 24:44, we can assume that Jesus had in mind the following scriptures, The Law of Moses, The Psalms and The Prophets Note Jesus’ words […]
The Previous week’s message from Lloyd, we considered the human testimony recorded in John’s gospel. By John the Baptist, the early disciples and others who believed. But also the testimony by the masses, including many who did not believe. Of course human testimony alone does not prove Jesus to be the Son of God. Jesus […]
In previous weeks we have considered claims made by Jesus… In relation to God. In relation to the Messianic hope. Jesus made claims that were not only great but relate to basic personal needs common to all. In this message consider aspects of our human need and what Jesus said in relation to them. The […]
The first thing we should note is that on at least two occasions Jesus claimed ‘He Came from God.’ After feeding the five thousand He claimed to be ‘the bread of life’ sent from the Father. We read this in John 6:32-35 Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it was […]
The purpose of John writing his gospel is is clearly stated in John 20:30-31 … these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God and that by believing you may (will) have life in His name. The two big intentions then are to create faith in Jesus […]
The title illustrates a simple yet important fact of life…we cannot wait until we are thirsty to begin digging a well. If we do, we will likely die of thirst before we get the water we need. We must prepare ahead of time, before the need arises. There are times of spiritual ‘thirst’ If we […]
Key Text: Matthew 25:1-13 Dave Wuyts brings a message to encourage us to a greater intimacy with God through Holy Spirit. A reminder that we cannot rely on something or someone but must seek the refreshing, renewing and power of Holy Spirit personally.
What can we do to cultivate those things in our lives that allow us to remain strong in the Lord, through the unexpected and uncertainties of life, even in the Valley moments of our lives.
Key Text: John. 2:1-11 Many think that the end of this account said, ‘But you saved the best for last.’ But that’s not what God’s Word says. It says 10b ‘But you have kept the good wine until now.’ No matter who He interacted with, no matter what He was doing, Jesus was always present […]
Key Text: Philippians 3:1-10 Everything listed here was an identity marker for Paul. If you asked him, ‘Who are you?’ these would have been part of his answer. Yet, we see in v.7, he now counts this ‘identity’ as loss/rubbish. His identity is now found in Christ. This is what he says in Galatians 2:20, […]
Finding Jesus For Yourself If you didn’t grow up around church or Christian stuff or speak ‘Christianese’ then you might laugh when people say, ‘I found Jesus’ You might then think ‘I didn’t know He was lost – So how did He get lost?’ Maybe you’re thinking, ‘So is Jesus hiding all over the place like […]
What Could Be (Avoiding Spiritual Apathy) Key Text: Ephesians 2:1-10 God wants us to live an inspired life. In other words, God wants us to be spiritually energised as we pursue the calling He has placed on our lives. And yet we all go through seasons of feeling the opposite. Apathy rarely appears overnight. It’s usually […]
Key Text: Matthew 7:12-20 In his letter to the Philippians Paul prays, that they will be ‘…filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God’ Philippians 1:11 His reference to ‘bearing fruit’ is not incidental, His references to ‘bearing fruit’ in Philippians and elsewhere mines a deep seam […]
Key Text: Acts 16:1 -5 Acts 1:8 …you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth’ From v.8 the Bible tells us the account of how God’s fledgling church became His […]
Key Texts: John 1:43-51 and Matthew 6:5-6 God says I see you The Seeking Heart – Jesus first teaches us how NOT to pray. The word hypocrite is a theatrical term referencing trying to be something that you are not. Don’t try to be something that you are not before the Father. Found people, find […]
Born Again Key Text : John 3:1-14 What does the phrase ‘Born Again’ mean? Right from the start we need to be clear ‘Born again’ is not a phrase invented by the church or anti – Christian media. Jesus himself used the phrase as a description of what it really means to be a saved […]
Are You Willing To Give Everything? Matthew 7:12 So in everything do to others what you would have them do to you. (NIV) Matthew 13:46 Parable of the Pearl – When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. (NIV) Matthew 18:26 Parable of the Unmerciful […]
