Sermon series: 2-3 John: Walking in Love and Truth

In the first half of 2 John, the apostle John reminds us that the Christian life is not about choosing between love and truth. They belong together. We are called to love truly, with a love grounded in the truth of Jesus Christ, and to truly love, by obeying His command to love one another.

Sermon series: Haggai: Giving Careful Thought to Life

In this fourth and final oracle, God speaks once again through His prophet Haggai. This time, He speaks to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah. God promises that He will shake up the cosmos and put down all forces which oppose Him, even as He reminds His people of His works of redemption in the past. This is signified through the restoration of the royal line of David, of which Zerubbabel is a part of, culminating in the coming of the chosen King, whose reign shall know no end.

Sermon series: Haggai: Giving Careful Thought to Life

Three months after resuming the rebuilding of the temple, God speaks once again to His people. Not because the work has ceased, but because God wants to address the hearts of His people. This means not depending on outward religious acts as a gauge of holiness, like rebuilding the temple, but turning back to God in true repentance and faith.

Sermon series: Haggai: Giving Careful Thought to Life

As God's people are in the midst of building the temple, there is a sense of despondency as they realise that it is a far cry from the former temple of Solomon's time. In light of this, God exhorts His people through Haggai to "be strong" and trust in Him because He is with them. At the same time, this temple looks forward to the final temple of God when Christ returns and brings all nations under Him.

Sermon series: Haggai: Giving Careful Thought to Life

In Haggai 1:12–15, God’s people hear His voice after 16 years of neglecting His house and everything changes. Out of a new allegiance, they obey and fear the LORD. He assures them of His presence and power, and awakens them with a zeal for Him and the work they had long delayed. When you truly hear God speak, He too gives you a new allegiance, assurance and awakening.

Sermon series: Haggai: Giving Careful Thought to Life

God, through Haggai calls us to give careful thought to what we are really building. God’s people had neglected His house while building their own. Yet Christ, the true temple, was destroyed and raised for us, calling us to give ourselves to building His body, the church.

Psalm 67 is typically described as a missionary psalm because it connects God’s blessing of His people with His purpose for the nations. The psalm begins with a prayer for God’s blessing, but it becomes clear that God’s blessings are never meant to end with His people. Rather, His blessings are meant to overflow to the nations. This psalm reminds us that global missions is not merely one ministry among many. Missions is for the whole church as it reflects God’s heart and His desire to gather worshippers from every nation, tribe, people, and language.

The early believers were called ‘Christians’ by outsiders because of their faithful witness. In the power of the Holy Spirit, who is also the missionary Spirit, the early church proclaimed the Gospel wherever they went, expressed in word and deed. The effects of this are seen in the makeup of the church at Antioch, which consisted of various ethnicities and cultures, even among the church leadership. The witness of the early church is intended to be an encouragement for modern-day Christians as we consider how faithful Gospel witness looks like for us, fully dependent on the mighty power of the missionary Spirit.

Drawing this series to a close, this message draws on the work of David W. Miller to give 4 practical ways to integrate our faith and our work: ethics, evangelism, experience and enrichment. This helps us to work with integrity, purpose, witness and hope.

Sermon series: Faith and Work

Worship is the way that God takes our theology of work and makes it part of who we are and how we live. To bring work and worship together, when we gather, we bring trumpets (thanksgiving), ashes (confession), tears (lament) petitions and fruits (offering) to God.
