Welcome

Chapter 4 of Luke mentions the Spirit four times and the devil or devils eight times. But Christ in the power of the Spirit is more than a match for the unclean spirits in every way. He not only was triumphant over Satan in temptation in the wilderness. He avoided a wicked attempt on His life in Nazareth and declares that He is the one anointed to bring deliverance and liberty to those bound by sin and Satan. When He moves to new territory in Capernaum, He deals with an unclean spirit in the synagogue and heals diseases as well, preaching the Gospel in many synagogues of the area. Today's songs are, "Tell Me the Story of Jesus," "O for a Thousand Tongues," "Seek Ye First," & "And Can It Be?" ... See more

The songs we are singing tonight all mention how vile and wretched we are in our sin. If we don't realize this, we will never consider grace to be as amazing as it truly is. There is actually real blessing in being fully aware of our wretchedness. This is at the very core of the Gospel, that God would save wretches like us. Join us in our second in the series, "How Amazing Is Grace?" entitled, "That Saved a Wretch Like Me."��Tonight's songs are, "There Is a Fountain," "Victory In Jesus," "Amazing Grace," and "Just As I Am." ...

We continue to journey through the Pastoral Epistles, this Sunday morning, in chapter 5. Since we began, Paul the apostle has
been building themes. He started in chapter 1 by setting out what a huge responsibility Timothy has, being a minister of God. In chapter 2, Paul talks about prayer and the need for submissiveness in so many aspects of the Christian life. In chapter 3, he sets out the qualifications of Pastors and Deacons
in new testament churches and in chapter 4, last time, we saw how each one of us has responsibility to play our part in protecting the church from false teachers - apostates, which come in all sorts of guises. Coming to chapter 5, Paul helps us to understand how should we deal with disputes and relationships in the church family and particularly sets out the church's responsibility to widows. At the end of the chapter, we're given a stark warning, vs 24 and 25 "Some men's sins are open
beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after. 25 Likewise also the good works of some are manifest
beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid. ... See more
