If I were to ask you… what is the most common command in the Bible… what would be your answer? To love the Lord… with all your heart? To love your neighbour as you love yourself? To resist sin? To be holy? What would your guess be?
Well… surprisingly… the most common command in the Bible… is… Do not… FEAR! Do not fear… do not be afraid… do not worry… do not be anxious… do not STRESS OUT!
Why do bad things happen to good people? In fact, is that even the right question to ask? During our morning services from 17 June – September 11 2016, Clint Lombard opens up the fascinating Old Testament book of Job – a book that is far more about a sovereign God than an innocent sufferer.
Pastor Rick Zylstra opens up the book of James teaching us what it looks like to live a Christian life, true Christians not only “talk the talk” but “walk the walk”.
Luke has a special interest in the suffering and marginalised. Of course, that’s nothing compared to the care and love Jesus had for them!
Callum Lewis takes us through the three questions Jesus was asked in the temple courts in Mark 12.
Rather than the sometimes crazy visions of the rest of the book, the first three chapters of the book of Revelation contains a clear image of the risen and ascended Jesus, along with some very serious words from Jesus to a network of local churches. As Jesus commends some churches and condemns others, we are challenged to reflect on our own church, and what Jesus might think of it.
How did prayer begin? How did people pray before they could pray “in Jesus’ name”? Join us as we explore examples of prayer in the Old Testament, and seek to understand the foundations of Biblical prayer.
