Paul's Message To Corinth

Norbert Link | April 12, 2008

In the “First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians,” Paul had to deal with internal divisions amongst Church members at Corinth. His timeless message is as relevant for us today, as it was in the days of Paul. Where DO divisions come from, and HOW can they be solved?

And Nothing Shall Be Restrained From Them

Brian Gale (United Kingdom) | April 5, 2008

At the Tower of Babel, over 4,000 years ago, God decided to confound the language in order to restrict the ambition of man at that time.  This sermon looks briefly at several areas – knowledge with particular reference to the internet, technology, cloning, outer space, sexual behaviour and mind pollution, but there are many other areas that could fall into the same categories – areas where we are reaching the point – if we haven’t already done so – where nothing shall be restained from them.  That was a telling phrase over 4,000 years ago and God took action.  4,000 years later, we are in the same position again where “Nothing Shall Be Restrained From Them.”  God will again take action – this time sending Jesus Christ back to this earth.

Hierarchical Government

Rene Messier (Canada) | March 29, 2008

There is some confusion even in the Churches if God about this subject and the purpose is to clarify God’s position in  it.

The Church Does Not Have Perfect People

Brian Gale (United Kingdom) | March 22, 2008

This sermon looks at some of the problems in the early Corinthian church as well as problems experienced more recently, and what our response should be particularly with the Passover coming up in the future.
The first letter to the Corinthians, as well as other parts of the New Testament, describe all sorts of problems that were extant in the church at that time.  Some of these things seemed to be consuming member’s lives to the point where they were focused on themselves and on the concerns of their immediate physical world, losing their focus on God, His Commandments and His purpose for their lives.  We face the same challenges today.  Unless we take the time to draw close – and stay close to God – and determine to live by His instructions – we too can lose our focus with all the disastrous consequences that that can have.  We need to ensure that our focus is where it should be, and the Passover season is the time to make any vital course corrections that may be necessary.

Pride Precedes Punishment

Norbert Link | March 15, 2008

Pride seems to be commonplace these days. But why is God so displeased with pride? Why is it sometimes so difficult to detect pride in our lives, and to overcome pride? Why is it absolutely essential that we get rid of it? Why will we encounter godly correction if we are proud? Who was the first being allowing pride to overtake him? Against whom is pride directed? And what is the godly characteristic with which we must replace pride?

The Rod and Staff

Robb Harris | March 8, 2008

Psalm 23 refers to God’s Rod and Staff.  Were these actual physical items, or merely figurative?  What other physical items in the Bible also possessed Miraculous or Holy properties?  What did they mean for our ancestors and what significance do they hold for us today?

Nothing Will Be Impossible For Them

Norbert Link | February 23, 2008

The accomplishments of modern science have brought into focus nightmare scenarios that were unthinkable in earlier times. The Bible prophesied that in these last days, technological knowledge would increase–but not necessarily for the good of mankind. The question whether God approves or disapproves of certain scientific “progress” rarely enters the mind of man.

To Tame The Tongue

Michael Link | February 23, 2008

What should we do when we are in a situation with somebody, where what we say, how we say it and how we act can either determine a positive or negative outcome?  Since we need to focus on a positive outcome, there are several principles that can be applied to do just that, so we can be a shining example to those we converse with.

There Is Hope!

Dave Harris | February 16, 2008

The Bible offers all of mankind the only true future–the only real hope that can have expectation of attainment. However, the vast majority live their lives apart from God with only a hope in this life. The Gospel reveals hope for eternal life in the glory of the Family of God for those who turn to God and embrace the future salvation He promises.

Three Times Seven

Norbert Link | February 9, 2008

In the book of John, Christ identified Himself seven times as the God of the Old Testament, by using the words, “I am,” in combination with certain godly characteristics. The book of John also records seven miracles performed by Christ prior to His death, and the four gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John have preserved Christ’s seven last sayings on the cross. What do all these passages mean for us today?

Behold the Man!

Dave Harris | February 2, 2008

Jesus Christ did seemingly incredible things, and we may lose sight of both how and why He was able to do what He did. Understanding that Jesus Christ temporarily gave up His glorious existence to be born as a man is an absolutely vital part of our faith. We can more fully grasp this truth–that Jesus Christ came in the flesh–by closely examining the Biblical account of His life.

Interpersonal Relationships

Norbert Link | January 19, 2008

In this day and age, it seems to be difficult to have good relationships with other people. Friendships break up, marriages end in divorce, nations fight against nations–and everyone thinks he is right and the others are wrong. No wonder that there is so much strife in the world, and in our own personal lives. But it does not have to be this way. You and I CAN have, build and preserve good relationships with others. Here is how.

To Be Spiritually Minded

Dave Harris | January 5, 2008

How we speak is shaped by many factors, but it can be an indication of where we come from–a kind of geographical marker. Consider as well that the way we think can be even more telling! What goes on within our minds identifies us to God–whether we serve God or Satan!

Abounding in the Work of the Lord

Eric Rank | January 5, 2008

Accepting the calling of a Christian involves an obligation to work towards the righteous goals of God. God’s plan involves the establishment of His kingdom here on earth, and there are many jobs involved in bringing that to fruition. As Christians, we all need to be empowered with the fact that God calls us for a purpose, knowing that we each have something individually to offer towards establishing His Kingdom. In God’s eyes, even small contributions are significant if they are performed genuinely and from the heart. Each of us, no matter what we have materially, or what specific skills we have, are able to contribute in a significant manner towards God’s cause.

Do You Know the Year of Christ's Return?

Norbert Link | December 29, 2007

There have been many predictions over the centuries as to the exact time of Christ’s return–but all those speculations have been wrong. Recently, some have again begun to try to figure out the year of Christ’s return, ranging from 2011 to 2017–but Christ said that not even He and His angels know. He also said that He will come at a time when we don’t expect it. Why, then, don’t some believe His Words? And how are we to explain certain numbers in the book of Daniel, which some have used as a basis to calculate the exact time of Christ’s return?

The Heavens

Dave Harris | December 2, 2007

What does the word “heaven” mean to you? While the Bible clearly reveals three heavens at the present time, it also speaks of new heavens, a new earth and even a new Jerusalem. When heaven is spoken of in the Bible, it is important to know what is actually being referenced.
