Speaker: Jeremy Walker

Broadcaster: Maidenbower Baptist Church

Event: Sunday - PM

Date: 5/13/2018

Bible: Acts 6:1-7

Length: 49 min.

Overview: The -magnificent seven- of Acts 6.1-7 - the proto-deacons - were not a carnal solution, neither did the church make a carnal selection.----A number of key features emerge as we look at the kind of men who were entrusted with the administration of the practical and compassionate labours of Christ-s church. They were men of quality, humility, responsibility, authority, spirituality, charity, integrity, capability, activity, and reliability. With such men handling the demands laid upon them, and the apostles giving themselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the Word, the church of Christ saw much blessing.

Title: Signs of the circumcision

Speaker: Jeremy Walker

Broadcaster: Maidenbower Baptist Church

Event: Sunday - AM

Date: 5/13/2018

Bible: Philippians 3:3

Length: 49 min.

Overview: Paul makes a strong and striking contrast between -the mutilation- - demands for the ritual of circumcision that are equivalent to the pagan cutting of the flesh which bring no spiritual benefit - and -the circumcision- - those who are circumcised in heart, a way of describing one of God-s true people.----But how do we know that we are -the circumcision-- Paul identifies three basic signs.----First, the circumcision worship God in the Spirit - they live a life of service to their Lord, having been renewed and being energised by the Holy Spirit who dwells in them.----Second, the circumcision rejoice in Christ Jesus - they glory in the matchless person and the mighty work of the Lord Jesus in salvation.----Third, they have no confidence in the flesh - they have renounced all identity and activity apart from and outside Christ as the ground of their acceptance with God.

Pardon and peace come only through faith in him.

Title: The origin of the deacons

Subtitle: Church office and officers

Speaker: Jeremy Walker

Broadcaster: Maidenbower Baptist Church

Event: Sunday - AM

Date: 5/6/2018

Bible: Acts 6:1-7

Length: 41 min.

Overview: When Satan tried to divide and distract the church over issues of mercy and money, she responded by appointing -the magnificent seven- to take responsibility for practical and administrative concerns, freeing the apostles to pray and to preach.----In this division of labour we see that pattern which later characterised the elders and the deacons. It demonstrates to us the priority of prayer and the ministry of the word, and the importance of the responses - their matter and their manner, never carnal but scriptural and spiritual - we make to the challenges we face as a church.----Today-s deacons ought to be defenders of the priority of prayer and preaching. They should see themselves as such- pastors should encourage them to be such- the church should embrace them as such.

Title: April fools?

Speaker: Jeremy Walker

Broadcaster: Maidenbower Baptist Church

Event: Sunday - AM

Date: 4/1/2018

Bible: 1 Corinthians 15:12-19

Length: 45 min.

Overview: The church at Corinth had those in it or around it who doubted the resurrection. Paul makes us face the facts.----If the resurrection is false - if Christ is not risen - the preaching is empty, faith is futile, preachers are false, sins cling to us, the dead are lost and hope is short.----But we must consider the evidence of the prophecies of Scripture and the witness of multitudes to the resurrection of Christ.----Because the resurrection is a fact, preaching is rich, faith is sure, preachers are true, sins are gone, the dead are safe, and hope is real and lasting.
