The Iniquity of Sodom

I want to base my exhortation this morning on a passage from Luke chapter 17, which was Tuesday’s New Testament reading. Luke 17, verses 28 to 32. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that […]

Fear Not

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of […]

And began to wash his feet with her tears

I want to start this morning with two verses from Luke Chapter 7. Luke 7, verses 37 and 38, the woman who washed Christ’s feet with her tears. And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box […]

God the potter

And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. God takes the dust of the ground and he uses it to make something – in this case Adam, just as a potter takes the dust of the […]

Looking at Peter

This morning I want to look at the contrast between Peter before the resurrection of Christ and Peter after the resurrection. Before the resurrection he is keen, but he never quite has the courage to back up his keenness with action. After the resurrection he is still just as keen, but now he has the […]

Exhortations

Be imitators of God, as beloved children

be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. That is the beginning of Ephesians chapter 5. Be imitators of God and walk in love as Christ loved us. I left out an important word from […]

Exhortations

Two people at the start of Luke’s gospel

There are two people we encounter at the start of Luke’s gospel, who are given similar messages, but react very differently to them. Their reactions are interesting, as is God’s response. The two people are Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist, and Mary the mother of Jesus. They are both given the message that […]

Exhortations

Faith without deeds

Last time I exhorted, three weeks ago, I talked about the importance of faith. I talked about how men like Noah, Abraham, and David were forgiven because of their faith, and I reminded us that we too can be forgiven anything if we have faith. Today I want us to think about the impact our […]

Exhortations

Psalm 73

Compare Psalm 23 with Psalm 73. The former is “The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.” Psalm 23 is written by a happy, well, contented man. The latter is very […]

Exhortations

Faith

Brothers and sisters, we are all weak, and we all know that we are weak. We wake up in the morning with the genuine desire not to sin, and so often we sin before the evening. Each one of us know that we are like that and it causes distress to all of us. However, […]
