  • Cleansing The Temple

    Contributed by Ian Lyall on Sep 28, 2005
    based on 20 ratings

    As we see Jesus cleansing the Temple in Jerusalem, we learn that equally he is concerned to deal with the sin in our hearts

    We have read of that dramatic moment in the Gospel of John when Jesus first cleansed the temple. Having called his disciples to a more permanent relationship with himself, he left with them for Jerusalem to celebrate the first Passover as the acknowledged Messiah, the Promised One to come. Jesus ...read more

  • The Unjust Steward Series

    Many people struggle with this well-known parable. Jesus seems to condone rather selfish, shady money-dealing. Actually the Gospel of forgiveness lies at its heart: are we ready to forgive?

    I don’t know about you, but I do have certainly difficulties with this parable. I’ve always tended to skirt around them, I must admit. But with this text in front of me for this morning I was forced to think about it more seriously. And I find that many of the problems are actually only on the ...read more

  • Jesus Will Return

    That Jesus will return is a constant theme of the New Testament and a basic Christian teaching. His return could be near. Are we ready?

    I’ve read recently about an inscription on the Dome of the Capitol building in Washington. It’s placed where few can see it. It’s a line from the poet Tennyson: One far-off divine event to which all history moves. That ’one far-off divine event’ is the one we pray for every time we say ’Thy ...read more

  • Grace

    Grace is God giving us what we do not desereve. But do we really understand the magnitude and wonder of God’s grace?

    I would want to concentrate this evening on verses 42-45 of this passage. From those verses I would say: God wants us to live in His grace: He wants us to receive, experience and enjoy His grace and He wants us also to express His grace in our lives. Can I repeat that? God wants us to live in His ...read more

  • Born Again

    Jesus was visited by Nicodemus, who learns of the essential need to be born again. What does it mean to be ’born again’ What about us?

    Nicodemus was an expert. He was a religious expert. He knew what made for good religion, and he knew it all. His way of life, like many other of the Pharisees was pretty comfortable. He was respected and he’d even made it on to the ruling council. Life couldn’t get better. He was the ideal ...read more

  • God's Power In Us

    Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3 is that his readers may be filled with God’s love and his power. We do not realise the full potential available to us

    We come to the third of our sermons on the Epistle to the Ephesians, and this morning it’s chapter three, verses 14 to 21. This is one of Paul’s prayers; the second he prays in this epistle for the Ephesian Christians. Here we see his love and his concern for these Christians; he’s worried for ...read more

    Isaiah is broken by his vision of God’s holiness, but is then cleansed and now fit as God’s messenger

    In that passage from Isaiah we heard this evening, we are presented with the vision the prophet had in the Temple of God in all his holiness, glory and majesty. That vision concludes in verse 8 with the call of Isaiah: Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go ...read more
