Congratulations! You have almost survived this series on Song of Solomon. Maggie can tell you that I really enjoyed studying this book. My faith has grown through it and my understanding of God’s love for me. I can totally agree with Jonathan Edwards: “The whole book of Canticles [i.e., Song of Solomon]…

Morning Service - 1st Dec 2024

Well, this has been quite a year so far, hasn’t it? We spent twelve sermons, studying addiction and recovery. We took breaks for the Resurrection season.

I would like to begin today by reading from: Genesis 2:18-25 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.” Out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he…

God dispersed the people for their own good, then later He united the peoples out of His mercy.

Love, it has been said, has many faces. People see it in all sorts of shapes and sizes. I think it is interesting to note that sometimes we see it more clearly, not through the eyes of adults, but through the eyes of children. A group of children were posed the following question: “What does love mean?”…

Last Spring, we studied through the Sermon on the Mount. One of the great themes of Matthew is the coming kingdom. The Book of Revelation speaks of the time when that new kingdom is fully realized. I shared with our Elders a week ago an observation that I gleaned about songs describing Heaven. Historically…

Walking the path of live involves active participation. Proverbs 2:3 For if you cry out for understanding, if you lift your voice for insight, 4 if you seek her like silver and search her out like treasure, 5 then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and the knowledge of God you will find.

The Dilemma of Belief. Have you ever had those moments when you wondered, “Is this really true?” Maybe life has gotten difficult.

Take care how the Word is handled and occupy till He comes!

In these verses from Ephesians 1:3-14, we are learning about the spiritual blessings God has given to us through Jesus Christ demonstrating His love, mercy and grace.
