Two dangerous paths that God wants believers to avoid. Paul helps us carefully steer a safe course between the errors of legalism on the one side and licentiousness on the other. Legalism - earn or maintain God’s favor by means of my ability to keep his law (vv. 14-15). These kinds of people like to…

All the blessings which God hath bestowed upon man are of his mere grace, bounty, or favour; his free, undeserved favour; favour altogether undeserved; man having no claim to the least of his mercies. It was free grace that "formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into him a living soul,"…

We all have choices we make in this world. Some choices impact others too. Can you think of a choice that impacted others beside yourself by the choice you made?

Rev Angus Kelly Its good to be with you again - especially after the tense week or so we’ve just had. So many stories of heartbreak. Caused by taxi tensions in our land.

12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned— 13 for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. 14 Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those…

Death is the Way to Life I don’t want anyone to think I don’t think life is valuable. Only God can create life. Anything else is just a pot full of chemicals. Life can come only through what God has designed in the core of our DNA. You can’t see it, you can’t make it, you can only manipulate it. Only…

John 13:38 John 21:15-19 Today is the last of the eight week series on Truth. We have been looking at the times that Jesus said Verily, Verily in the book of John. Each time he says Verily, Verily he is saying Amen, Amen (in the Greek) which at it’s root is Truth, Truth In the Greek repeated words are…

Who we were and Who we are. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”…

What do you abound in? What does the word abound mean?
