Sermon Of The Week

Proper preparation for Christ's advents (first and second) involves the rending of our hearts in true repentance.

The fire which Christ longs to bring upon the earth is a fire which both purifies and judges. For those who believe, the fire removes all that which cannot remain before Him. But those who do not believe are consumed in it.

Our desire is a sincere and robust faith, in which we press out the full Crown Rights of the King into every dimension and aspect of life and culture (cf. 1 Timothy 1:5).

The Biblical basis for catechism and its role in discipleship.

A Biblical consideration of credobaptism (believers' baptism) and paedobaptism (infant baptism).

Although there is a deep darkness on our land, and many see no need for Christ, we are nevertheless called to faithful and bold battle, standing firm in the promise that Christ will lead us on.

This account shows us the righteousness of God's standard and the utter impossibility of sinful men to represent the faithfulness of God. We need One who will come and represent God well.

David's scandalous, extravagant grace shown to Mephibosheth is only the tip of the iceberg of the depths of the love of Christ.

True covenant worship, composed of the Word and table, is seen in Exodus 24.

Acceptable worship is worship that accords with truth; acknowledging God as He is - holy. It means drawning near to Him with fear and trembling.
