Preachers' Corner

God’s message of grace has been extended even until today so that you may be saved. Over 2000 years ago Jesus came from heaven and journeyed to Calvary’s cross to provide salvation for sinners. The Bible tells us we’ve all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God but there is hope because Jesus stepped forward as saviour.

Bible Scripture: Darby Translation 

1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God’s power.”

In the following address, you will hear about Knowing Jesus. Jesus desires for believers to be on a daily and personal walk with Him. How well do you know Jesus? Do you seek the Lord’s presence daily?

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

John 14:5-9 “Thomas says to him, Lord, we know not where thou goest, and how can we know the way?Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father unless by me. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father, and henceforth ye know him and have seen him. Philip says to him, Lord, shew us the Father and it suffices us. Jesus says to him, Am I so long a time with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? He that has seen me has seen the Father;”

Song of Solomon 5:9-16“What is thy beloved more than [another] beloved, Thou fairest among women? What is thy beloved more than [another] beloved, That thou dost so charge us? My beloved is white and ruddy, The chiefest among ten thousand. His head is [as] the finest gold; His locks are flowing, black as the raven; His eyes are like doves by the water-brooks, Washed with milk, fitly set; His cheeks are as a bed of spices, raised beds of sweet plants; His lips lilies, dropping liquid myrrh. His hands gold rings, set with the chrysolite; His belly is bright ivory, overlaid [with] sapphires; His legs, pillars of marble, set upon bases of fine gold: His bearing as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars; His mouth is most sweet: Yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, yea, this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

Philippians 3:8-11 “But surely I count also all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all, and count them to be filth, that I may gain Christ; and that I may be found in him, not having my righteousness, which [would be] on the principle of law, but that which is by faith of Christ, the righteousness which [is] of God through faith, to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death, if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among [the] dead.”

Hebrews 12:1-2 Let us also therefore, having so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight, and sin which so easily entangles us, run with endurance the race that lies before us, looking stedfastly on Jesus the leader and completer of faith: who, in view of the joy lying before him, endured [the] cross, having despised [the] shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

In this address, you will hear of four men Asaph, Micah, David and Joshua who stated their convictions to make a stand for the Lord. “As for Me…”

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Psalms 73:1-3 “Truly God is good to Israel, to such as are of a pure heart. But as for me, my feet were almost gone, my steps had well nigh slipped; For I was envious at the arrogant, seeing the prosperity of the wicked.”

Psalms 73:23-28 “Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden my right hand; Thou wilt guide me by thy counsel, and after the glory, thou wilt receive me. Whom have I in the heavens? and there is none upon earth I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: God is the rock of my heart and my portion for ever. For behold, they that are far from thee shall perish; thou destroyest every one that goeth a whoring from thee. But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord Jehovah, that I may declare all thy works.”

Micah 7:2 “The godly [man] hath perished out of the land, and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood, they hunt every man his brother with a net.”

Micah 7:7 “ But as for me, I will look unto Jehovah; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.”

Psalm 52:1-3 “Why boastest thou thyself in evil, thou mighty man? The loving-kindness of God [abideth] continually. Thy tongue deviseth mischievous things, like a sharp razor, practising deceit. Thou hast loved evil rather than good, lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.”

Psalm 52:8-9 “But as for me, I am like a green olive-tree in the house of God: I will confide in the loving-kindness of God for ever and ever.  I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it]; and I will wait on thy name, before thy godly ones, for it is good.”

Joshua 24:14-15 “And now fear Jehovah and serve him in perfectness and in truth; and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the river, and in Egypt; and serve Jehovah. And if it seem evil unto you to serve Jehovah, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods whom your fathers that were on the other side of the river served, or the gods of the Amorite, in whose land ye dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve Jehovah.

Joshua 24:25-26 “So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and set them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem. And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God, and took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of Jehovah.”

Jesus is the centre of the Gospel message. As sinners, the Bible says we need a saviour and God out love for you sent his only son Jesus Christ.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Deuteronomy 8:7-11 “For Jehovah thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of water-brooks, of springs, and of deep waters, that gush forth in the valleys and hills; a land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig-trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey; a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, where thou shalt lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose mountains thou wilt dig copper.  And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless Jehovah thy God for the good land which he hath given thee. Beware that thou forget not Jehovah thy God”

Luke 22:54-62 “And having laid hold on him, they led him [away], and they led [him] into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off. And they having lit a fire in the midst of the court and sat down together, Peter sat among them. And a certain maid, having seen him sitting by the light, and having fixed her eyes upon him, said, And this [man] was with him. But he denied [him], saying, Woman, I do not know him.  And after a short time another seeing him said, And *thou* art of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. And after the lapse of about one hour another stoutly maintained it, saying, In truth this [man] also was with him, for also he is a Galilaean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, [the] cock crew. And the Lord, turning round, looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, Before [the] cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter, going forth without, wept bitterly.”

John 21:15-19 “When therefore they had dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Feed my lambs. He says to him again a second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Shepherd my sheep. He says to him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, art thou attached to me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Art thou attached to me? and said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep. Verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst where thou desiredst; but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and bring thee where thou dost not desire. But he said this signifying by what death he should glorify God. And having said this, he says to him, Follow me.”

In this address, you will hear about the wonderful work of the Lord Jesus and his service to his people but also to his church.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

1 John 1:9-10 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us [our] sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”

1 John 2:1-3 “My children, these things I write to you in order that ye may not sin; and if any one sin, we have a patron with the Father, Jesus Christ [the] righteous; and he is the propitiation for our sins; but not for ours alone, but also for the whole world. And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

Luke 22:31-32 “And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to have you, to sift [you] as wheat; but *I* have besought for thee that thy faith fail not; and thou, when once thou hast been restored, confirm thy brethren.”

Revelation 3:14-22 “And to the angel of the assembly in Laodicea write: These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God: I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. Thus because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and am grown rich, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that *thou* art the wretched and the miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked; I counsel thee to buy of me gold purified by fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white garments, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not be made manifest; and eye-salve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see. I rebuke and discipline as many as I love; be zealous therefore and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and am knocking; if any one hear my voice and open the door, I will come in unto him and sup with him, and he with me. He that overcomes, to him will I give to sit with me in my throne; as *I* also have overcome, and have sat down with my Father in his throne. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”

As a result of the Reformation, Martin Luther passionately proclaimed the following five solas that are fundamental to the Gospel. In Christ alone, grace alone, faith alone, to the glory of God alone and Scripture alone. In this Gospel message, you will hear how we can be saved by grace through faith in Jesus.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

2 Corinthians 1:19-22 “For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, he who has been preached by us among you (by me and Silvanus and Timotheus), did not become yea and nay, but yea is in him. For whatever promises of God [there are], in him is the yea, and in him the amen, for glory to God by us. Now he that establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, [is] God, who also has sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.”

Ephesians 2:8 “For ye are saved by grace, through faith”

2 Timothy 3:15 “and that from a child thou hast known the sacred letters, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation, through faith which [is] in Christ Jesus. Every scripture [is] divinely inspired, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be complete, fully fitted to every good work.”

God loves us and cares for us and remains faithful even when we stumble. In this address, you will hear about the service of the Lord to his own that remains constant throughout the believer’s life.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Transition 

Hosea 11:1-4 “When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son. As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto the Baals, and burned incense to graven images. And I it was that taught Ephraim to walk,—He took them upon his arms,—but they knew not that I healed them. I drew them with bands of a man, with cords of love; and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I gently caused them to eat.”

Psalms 78:70-72 “And he chose David his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: From following the suckling-ewes, he brought him to feed Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance. And he fed them according to the integrity of his heart, and led them by the skilfulness of his hands.”

Romans 8:31-35 “What shall we then say to these things? If God [be] for us, who against us? He who, yea, has not spared his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him grant us all things? Who shall bring an accusation against God’s elect? [It is] God who justifies: who is he that condemns? [It is] Christ who has died, but rather has been [also] raised up; who is also at the right hand of God; who also intercedes for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?”

John 13:3-10 “[Jesus,] knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands, and that he came out from God and was going to God, rises from supper and lays aside his garments, and having taken a linen towel he girded himself: then he pours water into the washhand basin, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them with the linen towel with which he was girded. He comes therefore to Simon Peter; and *he* says to him, Lord, dost thou wash *my* feet? Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou dost not know now, but thou shalt know hereafter. Peter says to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash thee, thou hast not part with me. Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jesus says to him, He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all.”

It is very important for the people of God to understand the times we are living in so we know what to do. Listen to the following address, to discover what the scriptures say about understanding the times.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

1 Chronicles 12:23 “And this is the number of the men equipped for military service, who came to David to Hebron, to transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Jehovah.

1 Chronicles 12:32 “ And of the children of Issachar, who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their bidding.”

1 Chronicles 12:38 “All of them men of war, keeping rank in battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.”

1 Thessalonians 4:1 “For the rest, then, brethren, we beg you and exhort you in [the] Lord Jesus, even as ye have received from us how ye ought to walk and please God, even as ye also do walk, that ye would abound still more.”

Acts 20:35 “ I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring [we] ought to come in aid of the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

2 Timothy 2:21-26  “If therefore one shall have purified himself from these, [in separating himself from them], he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, serviceable to the Master, prepared for every good work. But youthful lusts flee, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those that call upon the Lord out of a pure heart.  But foolish and senseless questionings avoid, knowing that they beget contentions. And a bondman of [the] Lord ought not to contend, but be gentle towards all; apt to teach; forbearing; in meekness setting right those who oppose, if God perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of [the] truth, and that they may awake up out of the snare of the devil, [who are] taken by him, for *his* will.”
