    Little Letters, Big Lessons | Jude

    Preacher: Martin Fong | Jude Little Letters, Big Lessons    Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints. For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a licence for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.Jude 3-4

    Little Letters, Big Lessons | 2 John

     Little Letters, Big Lessons    Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.2 John 8-9Preacher: Martin Fong

     Martin Fong | Philemon

     Martin Fong | Philemon Little Letters, Big Lessons    Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever—no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a dear brother. He is very dear to me but even dearer to you, both as a fellow man and as a brother in the Lord.Philemon 15-16

  6. 328

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 21-22

    Preacher: Tim BaronHoly. How God Brings us into His Presence  As you come to him, the living Stone – rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him – you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.1 Peter 2:4-5

  7. 327

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 17-20

    Preacher: Tim Baron| Leviticus 17-20Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence  For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope – the glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.Titus 2:11-14

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 16

    Preacher: Tim Baron4 For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence. 25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own. 26 Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But he has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.Hebrews 9:24-26

  10. 324

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 11-15

    Preacher: Tim Baron | Passage: Leviticus 11-15Holy. How God Brings us into His PresenceThe blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!Hebrews 9:13-14

  11. 323

    HOLY. How God brings us into His presence | Leviticus 8-10

    Preacher: Tim Baron | Passage: Leviticus 8-10HOLY. How God brings us into His presence23 Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; 24 but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. 25 Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.Hebrews 7:23-25

  12. 322

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 1-7

    Preacher: Tim Baron | Leviticus 1-7Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence  Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.Romans 12:1

  13. 321

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Leviticus 1 | Hebrews 10:1

    Preacher: Josh Bouzanquet | Leviticus 1Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence  “The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming – not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.”Hebrews 10:1

  14. 320

    Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence | Overview of Leviticus | John 1:14

    Preacher: Tim Baron | Overview of LeviticusHoly. How God Brings us into His Presence The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.John 1:14From Tim: This Sunday we're kicking off a new sermon series in the book of Leviticus: Holy. How God Brings us into His Presence.Leviticus might not be the part of the Bible we naturally turn to first, but it's a vital part of God's story. It gives us a rich and compelling vision of what it means and what it costs for a Holy God to dwell with his people.This first week will be an introduction, helping us get our bearings and see the big picture. We'll trace how Leviticus fits within the wider story of the Bible, seek to understand its purpose, and discover how it points us to Jesus.I'm hoping this sets us up well for the rest of the series where we will get into more of the detail.Looking forward to beginning this together.
