The Character Of Our King | Neville Jones

The Character of our King This Sunday is often referred to as “Christ the King” Sunday because of its theme of the reign of Christ. Instead of the more common subject of the “kingdom” Rev Neville Jones takes a different tack and looks at the character of the King. Using a number of bible passages he summarises the promises and prophecies for this divinely anointed ruler, and how Jesus is careful to not inflame any misplaced expectations that many had about this “coming king”. In several well-known passages he then looks at how Jesus reveals his true character, the effect it had on those involved and how we in turn should respond. Quote (from the sermon) The Lord’s response could be summarised this way: “Thanks David for the offer of a house, but I tell you what, I’ll build you a house” … and when God says he will build a house it, it stays built. Readings: Jeremiah 23: 1-6, Colossians 1: 11-20, Luke 23: 33-43 Blessed by our teachings? Consider saying thank you with a small (or large) donation. www.christchurchjerusalem.org/donate/
