Both Jesus and Paul had much to say about love in the end times – both inside and outside of the Church. This is the first part of two sessions on this subject. https://youtu.be/_U5NpRZtbMU Love in the End Times 1) The Church Builds Itself Up in Love See Sermon Slides Here
The New Testament tells us there will be a falling away (apostasia – defection from the truth) prior to the 2nd coming of Christ. How should we respond to this warning? https://youtu.be/ZMgC7Qfc618 Apostasy in the End Times See Sermon Slides Here
Samson really gets a bad rap. And perhaps for good reason. Though a greatly flawed man, the letter to the Hebrews mentions Samson as a man of faith. His life is an example of God’s grace, that even when we are faithless God is always faithful to us. https://youtu.be/7PX_g1nglvI Samson 3. God Behind the Man […]

The Spirit Who Reveals
Falling Forward
There is NO shame in Christ Jesus Many people suffer under the condemnation of shame, both shame that has come about by the misgivings of others, and also by mistakes made by people themselves. In today’s message we explore where shame originated for mankind, what shame looks like, and how the truth of God’s forgiveness, […]

Hesed 2: Discerning the Lord’s Body The two main reasons God wants us to understand Hesed is 1) because it will transform our relationship with Him; 2) because it will transform our relationship with others.

Civil War ‘Do believers have two natures? (for example), a sin nature and a righteous nature?’ ‘Is there really an internal battle between the two natures?’ This message will discuss what it truly means to be established in your new identity in Christ. See Sermon Slides Here
The church at Pergamos dwelt ‘where Satan’s throne is’. They demonstrated that it’s possible to stand upright in the most evil environment. Yet, our greatest danger might be the enemy in our midst…

Poor, But Rich. Today, approximately 300 million Christians around the world live in a country where they suffer some form of persecution
The Angel of the Lord speaks to Samson’s parents
Creation: A Key to the Gospel
Jesus said to the church at Ephesus, ‘I have this against you, that you have left your first love’ (Rev.2:4). What did He mean?
When Jesus Comes To Church | Jesus’ letters to the seven churches of Asia give us a picture of Jesus’s commentary on local churches. Churches often take a wrong turn at some stage. Jesus, in His love for the Church, confronts them regarding this so that they can turn back. He would say to us today, ‘He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches’
Samson 1: The Promise of a Saviour. Patrick Ormsby
The subject of ‘once saved, always saved’ has been fiercely debated for centuries. Yet, as this video reveals, the dispute about eternal security was ended once and for all when the book of Hebrews was written.
God’s love has endured for thousands of years and hundreds of generation. His love is a love that has always existed. Today’s message looks at why God is a loving God, how that love is the source of all creation, how it translated over the age of mankind … and some of the reasons why believers don’t get fully established in His love, leading to a nervous faith.
Paul contrasts those who are citizens of heaven with those who are enemies of the cross, (Phil.3:17-21). This stark contrast is depicted throughout the Bible in the study of two cities – Babylon and Jerusalem. The conflict between Babylon and Jerusalem is the story of the whole Bible – apostasy and salvation. They are the two most mentioned cities in the Bible. Both appear in Genesis and Revelation They are literal cities, yet represent two spiritual groups.
Paul says we carry the priceless treasure of the life of Christ within us, jars of clay. God has destined us to be vessels of honour. In this video we learn how He is fashioning and shaping us.
Christmas has taken on many forms over the years, but for Christians today, it is foremostly about the birth of Christ, and furthermore His death and resurrection as well, as He was born to die for us. In today’s message we look at some of the prophesies and the fulfilment of them regarding the birth of Jesus, the Christmas story centred around Mary and Joseph and a whole bunch of truth about why Jesus is the reason for the season.
Patrick Ormsby reminds us of the reason for the Christmas season. Jesus is the gift who keeps on giving.
The Holy Spirit is our Helper. We can freely enjoy His fruit and gifts to help us on our journey to eternal life. As we are partnering with Him, we have everything we need to help us spread the Good News of the Gospel to others.
The rest we have been provided in Christ evades many believers. The main cause of this lack of rest is not knowing your identity in Christ and believing in a works based, merit based doctrine – a doctrine that essentially is a false gospel that mixes New Covenant truth with Old Covenant practices. This message looks at what isn’t His rest and what is His rest, and how we bear His rest.
Paul’s words to the Corinthian church sum up the primacy of the cross … “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power of God”.
From Day One of the church we read, ‘And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved’ (Acts 2:47). No one was added who was not saved. And all who were saved were added. People do not join the church organisationally, but organically. They do not join by filling out a membership application. It is the Lord who adds to the church all who are being saved. In this video we look at what it means to be members of the body of Christ.
THE POWER OF IDENTITY | SESSION 2 “Adopted As Sons of God.
If we entered God’s family by the new birth, why do we need to be adopted into His family also? The truth behind adoption has amazing implications for the children of God.
Patrick Ormsby looks briefly at the life of Martin Luther, the great reformer — and how his personal revolution brought the
Christian Church back to justification by faith alone, by grace alone.
“The resurrection of Jesus Christ is either one of the most wicked, vicious, heartless hoaxes ever foisted on humanity, or it is the most important fact in history.” [Josh McDowell]
Battle Ready. Presented by David Van der Vooren
God bestowed the greatest honour upon mankind when He created us in His image. The Fall was the greatest act of identity theft in history. But God’s plan to restore His image in us is a magnificent display of God’s wisdom, love and grace.
In Hebrews chapter 11, where we have a record of men and women of God who responded to Him by faith we read just one verse of Joseph: ‘By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones’ (Heb.11:22). Of all the things the writer of Hebrews could have said about Joseph, why this?
Home is where the heart is … so the saying goes. As Christians, Heaven is our home and it’s always a good reminder that the world we live in is only temporary. Our hope and anticipation are ultimately for the new world that is to come. We are like residents on earth, but our citizenship is in Heaven.
GOD MEANT IT FOR GOOD
This is the fifth part of the series looking at the life of Joseph. In this session we look at an important topic – the sovereignty of God
In Joseph’s brothers we see a wonderful picture of Jesus’ natural brothers, the nation of Israel. At the Second Coming of Jesus the veil that is over the eyes of the Jewish people will be lifted and He will be revealed to them, resulting in their salvation.
Part 4 of series “Joseph Dreamed”
We are living in a world which is progressively inventing ways and means of getting what we want instantly. But in this session we see how God’s timing is much different to ours, yet it is the best. Pt.3 – “Joseph Dreamed”
Through the finished work of Christ crucified, all our sins — past, present and future — have been forgiven and forgotten. We can have true intimacy with our Father when we know our sin is not a hinderance to our relationship with the Lord.
Chastening is a much misunderstood subject in the Bible. It is not to be confused with punishment. In fact, chastening is not always directly linked with our behaviour. Some of God’s most obedient children have suffered the most. Joseph’s sufferings were preparation for the huge responsibilities he would one day be given.
