Many Bible publishers today distribute red-letter Bibles, with the words of our Saviour printed in red (or some other colour) while the rest of the text is in black. In light of their current popularity, we are sometimes asked why we do not publish them. This article briefly examines the history of red-letter Scripture editions and outlines our reasons for refraining from the practice.

This sermon explores the theological significance of Reformation Day by tracing the concept of reformation through biblical history, from the transition of the Old Covenant to the New Covenant in Christ to the reforms of King Josiah. It highlights the Protestant Reformation as a divine restoration of the gospel, emphasizing Martin Luther's rejection of indulgences and the recovery of key doctrines such as justification by faith alone and the authority of Scripture. The message underscores the necessity of the church remaining constantly reformed to avoid drifting into legalism or losing the clarity of the gospel. By examining the five solas and the historical context of the Reformation, the sermon calls believers to hold fast to biblical truth and recognize the ongoing work of God in preserving the light of the gospel for the world.

Justin Peters examines Philip Anthony Mitchell's report of a teenage girl being healed of deafness at the ACCESS gathering in Texas. He discusses the importance of verifying healing claims, reviews examples from faith-healing ministries, and compares those claims with the apostolic miracles recorded in Acts 3–4. While affirming that God can sovereignly heal today, Justin distinguishes that conviction from the belief that individuals possess the apostolic gift of healing. This episode encourages Christians to evaluate public claims by Scripture, seek clear evidence, and show compassion toward those who suffer.

This sermon examines the commissioning of the twelve disciples in Mark 6, highlighting their role as authoritative representatives of Christ who are sent to proclaim repentance. The message emphasizes that believers are ambassadors of the King, tasked with traveling light and maintaining a laser focus on the mission to avoid the distractions of material comfort. It argues that the core of the gospel is not a feel-good narrative but a serious call to turn away from sin and toward God, mirroring the ministry of Jesus and John the Baptist. The preacher critiques modern preaching for often omitting the necessity of repentance, asserting that it is a lifelong gift from God essential for salvation. The sermon concludes with a convicting appeal for both believers and unbelievers to embrace genuine repentance, warning that rejection of this message results in divine judgment.

"No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light."

This sermon explores the theological foundation of the local church by examining the letter to Timothy, emphasizing that the church is a spiritual family bound by faith rather than mere association. The central message asserts that every believer has a specific, non-secular purpose within the body of Christ, whether through preaching, prayer, or service. Key themes include the necessity of sound doctrine, the vital role of fervent prayer for the community and nation, and the call for believers to actively participate in the Great Commission. The tone is pastoral and instructional, urging the congregation to move beyond passive attendance to active engagement in their local context and broader mission. By connecting the ancient context of Ephesus to the modern local setting, the sermon encourages believers to identify and fulfill their unique roles in edifying the church and reaching the community.

What happens when a person has been granted the faith to recognize that Someone has created everything that exists and that Someone necessarily exists outside of all that has been created? God continues to call their hearts toward Himself and to prepare their hearts to receive the message of the gospel so they may be transferred from the Kingdom of Darkness into the Kingdom of Light that is ruled by Jesus Christ who is the Light and Creator and the Redeemer of all who come to faith in Him.
