Sermon considers how David was greatly blessed by God, knew so much, yet failed as a father, his family was a disaster, yet God made an everlasting covenant with him and that was his hope and comfort.

Sermon looks at this first miracle of Jesus and notes the embarrassing situation which had arisen, Mary's plea, Jesus rebuke to her, the actual miracle, the new wine being the best and the significance of the best wine being kept till the end.

All the preaching undertaken at Buchanan Street, Glasgow, on Friday 25 September 2026.

The sermon proclaims that every true Christian is a priest. All must offer sacrifices and these consist of our bodies and our praises. All priests must also be engaged in the work of intercession.

The Christian is to look to the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the ultimate example, who successfully lived the life of faith.

Many from Judah and Jerusalem had been carried away captive in 597 BC to Babylon, yet the prophet Jeremiah still ministered to them.

Much energy, enthusiasm, and effort are required by the Christian as he takes part in the greatest race of all time.

If the way that the Lord treated His rebellious people in the time of Jeremiah is to be repeated, then the people of God must batten down the hatches and prepare to be under the yoke of Islam.
