There is a short teaching from Genesis 22 about Abraham's faith followed by the Matthew passage about Jesus' triumphal entry on the colt of a donkey fulfilling prophecy from Zechariah 9:9. Jesus weeps over Jerusalem before going to the temple and turning out the merchants. Finally Jesus causes the fig tree to wither (a representation of the nation of Israel)

In this sermon on 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul comforts the early church in Thessalonica, who were worried that loved ones who died before Jesus' return might miss the rapture. He explains that believers who pass away are simply "asleep" and will rise first with resurrected bodies when the Lord descends with a shout, pulling the living up to meet Him in the air. Get ready to find hope and encouragement in these powerful words that remind us of we'll all be with Jesus forever.

This message explores one of the most important truths in Scripture: what it really means to be born again.From Adam’s fall in the Garden of Eden to the redeeming work of Jesus Christ, this teaching traces the Bible’s central story—how humanity moved from spiritual death to new life through faith in Christ.Key themes include:The difference between being physically alive but spiritually deadHow sin entered the world through Adam and why every person is born with a sin natureThe “two circles and three circles” diagram, illustrating the contrast between the unsaved and the saved lifeWhat Jesus meant when He told Nicodemus, “You must be born again” (John 3:3)How Jewish theology understood being “born again,” and why Jesus’ words carried such deep meaningThe meaning of propitiation—how Jesus’ sacrifice turned away God’s wrath and opened the way to eternal life for those who believeHow the second Adam, Jesus Christ, restored what the first Adam lostThis sermon draws on Scripture from Genesis, Romans, John, 1 Peter, 1 John, Hebrews, and Philippians, showing that salvation is not earned but given freely through grace, mercy, and faith in Jesus Christ.Key passages:Genesis 3–5; John 3:1–16; Romans 5; 1 Peter 1:18–21; 1 John 2:2; Hebrews 2:17; Philippians 2:8–9Theme: Salvation, the new birth, and the finished work of Christ on the cross.

Teaching on the first half of Luke Chapter six about how Jesus and his disciples broke the Sabbath rules and rebuked the Pharisees. Ending with the Beatitudes.

Luke Chapter 5 Picking the TeamThis message looks at how Jesus called His first disciples and what it means to follow Him in obedience, even when it doesn’t make sense. From Peter’s miraculous catch to the healing of the leper and the calling of Levi, we see how faith, humility, and repentance are at the core of discipleship.We’ll also look at the deeper meaning behind leprosy as a picture of sin, Jesus’ authority to forgive, and what He meant by new wine in new wineskins.

Luke 4 – Part 2 Victory Over DarknessIn this study, we continue through Luke chapter 4 as Jesus begins His public ministry in Kfar Nahum (Capernaum), the “Town of Jesus.” We’ll see how His teaching astonished everyone because His words carried authority from the Father, not from man.Discover how He silenced demons who recognised Him as the Holy One of God, healed Peter’s mother-in-law, and transformed the Sabbath with divine compassion and power. Learn why the religious leaders questioned His authority, what made His miracles unique, and how the three Messianic miracles proved that the long-awaited Messiah had come.

Sermon on Luke Chapter 2 about Simeon and Anna meeting Jesus when he was taken to the temple as a child and about how at the age of twelve he amazed the elders in the temple with his knowledge

 In this sermon we dive deep into Luke chapter 2, highlighting how Luke uniquely portrays Jesus’ humanity, His compassion for sinners, prostitutes, and tax collectors—while affirming His divine lordship. Drawing on biblical linguistics, the talk explains that the Greek term “Lord” (Kyrios) carries the same weight as the Hebrew YHWH, making the confession “Jesus is Lord” a declaration of His deity. We contrast this truth with the teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons, showing that denying Jesus’ divinity excludes them from true Christianity. We also critique modern American preaching for diluting the gospel with cultural trends, and recount vivid resurrection details underscoring the physical reality of Christ’s victory over death.

In this message, we look closely at Passover, Passion Week, and the timeline of Jesus’ final days before the cross.Exodus 12 gives God’s instructions for the first Passover lamb. A clear foreshadowing of Jesus, the Lamb of God.We explore how Palm Monday, not Palm Sunday, fits the biblical timeline of Passion Week, aligning with Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem on the tenth day of Nisan, just as the lambs were chosen.From Zacchaeus’ salvation and Bartimaeus’ healing in Jericho, to the Triumphal Entry (Mark 11; Zechariah 9:9), Jesus fulfilled prophecy with precision.On Tuesday, Jesus cursed the fig tree, symbolizing Israel’s spiritual fruitlessness and then cleansed the Temple, confronting corruption and hypocrisy in the priesthood.This message reminds us that Jesus entered Jerusalem not to be crowned by men, but to be rejected, crucified, and raised. God’s true Passover Lamb for the salvation of the world

This message explores who Jesus really is—both fully God and fully human. We look at what the Bible says in John chapter 1 and other verses, showing how Jesus existed from the beginning, created everything, and later came to live among us. We also talk about John the Baptist, his role in preparing the way for Jesus, and how the first disciples came to follow Him. It's a clear look at the light Jesus brings into a dark world, and the hope we have through Him.

In this powerful sermon, we delve into the profound teachings of the Gospel of Luke, specifically Chapter 1, along with insightful references to Isaiah, Genesis, and other biblical texts. The message emphasizes the importance of a true relationship with Jesus Christ, exploring how salvation is rooted in knowing Him deeply. We examine the role of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers and the significance of prophetic visions, including those related to the end times.Key topics covered include:The indwelling of the Holy Spirit and its distinction from the world's understandingProphetic utterances from Daniel and their relevance to current eventsThe imminent return of Christ and the relocation of the ChurchThe spiritual battle between righteousness and evil, tracing back to GenesisThe annunciation of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ, highlighting their divine missionsThe significance of Isaiah's prophecies and their fulfillment in the New TestamentJoin us as we reflect on these timeless truths and their application to our lives today. May this sermon inspire and strengthen your faith as we navigate the challenges of our time with hope and assurance in God's promises.

Featuring a talk from our guest speaker Hon. Nick Goiran MLC on Godless governments with biblical examples.

Touch Not My People Israel - Ezekiel 39 ExplainedIn this powerful teaching on Ezekiel 39, we explore the prophetic vision of Gog’s invasion of Israel and God’s decisive judgment. The passage reveals how God will defend His people, bringing down enemy forces with supernatural intervention and ushering in a time of restoration for Israel. This message draws connections between ancient prophecy, modern warfare imagery, and end-time events, showing God's ultimate plan to vindicate His name and pour out His Spirit upon Israel. Key scriptures from Psalms, Amos, and Revelation highlight the broader biblical narrative of judgment and redemption.

Ezekiel 38: The Prophecy of Gog and Magog - Are We Living in the End Times?In this Bible study, we explore Ezekiel 38 and the prophesied invasion of Israel by Gog and the land of Magog. Could current world events be setting the stage for this ancient prophecy?What we'll cover:The alliance of nations (Iran, Turkey, Libya, Russia)Israel's prophetic position as dwelling "securely"God's supernatural intervention and judgmentConnection to Daniel's prophecies and the AntichristEnd times timeline from ScriptureKey Scripture references:Ezekiel 38-39, Daniel 9:24-27, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, Revelation 19:19-21

In this timely and urgent message, we explore the growing signs of the prophesied Gog-Magog war (Ezekiel 38–39) and what it means for Israel, the Church, and the world. The sermon reflects on the spiritual condition of our time, the decline in anticipation for Christ’s return, and the dangers of a superficial faith. Highlighting key scriptures from Matthew and Acts, we are reminded that salvation comes from a personal relationship with Jesus — not religious activity or appearances. Only those truly known by Him will be taken in the Rapture before the coming tribulation.This message is a wake-up call to believe, be watchful, and ensure your name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.Scriptures covered include Ezekiel 38–39, Matthew 7 & 25, Acts 16, Romans 1, Ephesians 2, and Revelation.

Teaching about Babylon, sin and lawlessness and the parallels between those times and now.

In this powerful message, "Babylon Part 2," we explore the origins of spiritual rebellion, tracing the fall of Lucifer, the defiance of Nimrod, and the rise of Babylon as a center of false religion. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 and key Old Testament passages, this sermon reveals how pride, sovereign will, and humanity's choices have shaped the spiritual battle through history. Discover how Christ remains the wisdom and power of God amidst a world chasing counterfeit truths.

In this powerful message, we explore the biblical origins of sin, tracing its roots from Lucifer’s fall to Adam’s transgression, and how it has shaped human history and destiny. Drawing deeply from Scripture, the teaching unpacks how the spiritual rebellion in heaven and the deception in Eden began a timeline of decay that will culminate in Christ's victorious return. With references from Ezekiel, Genesis, Isaiah, and Revelation, this session connects ancient truths to present realities—including today’s global moral decline—and emphasizes the hope we have in God's redemptive plan through Jesus. Don’t miss this compelling look at God’s sovereignty in history and the urgency of the times we live in.

Teaching about the perils of misrepresenting Jesus. Two examples of where this happens, where Moses struck the rock twice instead of speaking to it, and in the book of Job where Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar are reprimanded.

In this timely and passionate message, we examine the prophetic warning of 1 Timothy 4 about a falling away from the faith in the last days, and how this is unfolding amid rising global chaos, persecution, and spiritual confusion. Drawing from personal experience and deep scriptural insight—including the five warnings from Hebrews—this teaching addresses the real dangers believers face: disobedience, spiritual immaturity, and willful compromise. From the bold witness of the early church to the subtle pressures of modern culture, this message calls Christians to endure, stand firm, and live out an unshakable faith as we long for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
