The benefits & responsibilities of Sonship.

This week’s message is brought to us by Jacqueline Scott.

Using Ephesians 6 v 10 – 20 she reminds us that with the benefits of Sonship comes responsibility. But we also have authority with our position in Christ.

God is still drawing ‘a people’ to Himself, to take people from a kingdom of darkness into a kingdom of light and, as sons and joint heirs of Christ, we are called to play our part.

Yes, we walk in gratitude, thankfulness, joy and grace, but we have a responsibility to show the world the Light of the World, who is living inside of us!

Our true identity. #7

In the message today, the last in this current series about Our True Identity, Pastor Vic looks at two aspects of what we receive through our position in Christ.

These are rather controversial in some sections of the Church; we are talking about healing and prosperity.

3 John v2 says that above all things God wants us to live in health and prosperity, but is this talking about spiritual matters or physical?

Listen to find out that this is all about our physical life here on earth; a life that God wants to be full of health, prosperity and abundance.

Out true identity. #6

In the 6th of our True Identity series, Pastor Vic explores the concept of, ‘saint or sinner’ and wether we are holy or not.

We will hear that, through our position in Christ, we are holy and that we are saints.

This is all to do with position and nothing to do with performance!

Listen to find out that you are indeed a saint!

Our true identity. #5

In the message today Pastor Vic carries on with our Identity in Christ series.

Again we hear about position in Christ over religious performance; and this week we look at righteousness.

If you are in Christ you are righteous; you have right standing with God.

Find out that righteousness is about who you are and not what you do.

Our true identity. #4

In the message today Pastor Vic continues teaching our life changing series called “Our True Identity”.

Today he passionately tells us that because of our position in Christ we are more than conquerors; we are overcomers and we are winners in this life.

If you are a born again believer you can change your life by being persuaded about this truth.

Covenant.

In this week's message, Nunsy Cameron exhorts us to know and understand the New Covenant that we have with God through His Son, Jesus Christ.

The old covenants, in the past, that man had with God, were a direct covenant between man and God.

A covenant is 'legally binding' and therefore all parties to the covenant are legally bound by the covenant.

The New Covenant that born again believers have through Jesus Christ is all about His finished work on the cross and we need to understand this so that we do not live in fear and under condemnation.

At the beginning of this message, Nunsy uses the example of the covenant between David and Jonathan to show us how covenants operate.

Ye are all one in Christ.

In the message today, Pastor Vic moves away from the current series to discuss a topical issue at MGF. Last week he appointed a lady as an elder for the fellowship and was asked questions about the Biblical precedent for female elders. This week, Pastor Vic answers these questions, showing us that there were examples of female leaders in the early church and that the doctrine of having only male leaders is a ‘tradition of man’ and wrong.

Our true identity. #3

In the message today, Pastor Vic uses three passages of scripture to explain Romans 8 v 1.

The encounters of Jesus with the woman caught in adultery and the Samaritan woman at the well, along with the section about the prodigal son, gives us a picture - type and shadow - of how God will never use condemnation on His children.

As believers, we now live in a time where there is no condemnation from God!

Listen to find out more about this fundamental truth.

Our true identity. #2

In the message today Pastor Vic continues in the new series we are calling, 'Our True Identity'.

We are learning about "I am" and "I've been made" statements; looking at truths of who we are, and what we have, in Christ.

In this message we agree and speak out the following: "I am loved by God".

We then need to be persuaded that nothing can separate us from this love.
