Who is Jesus? #1

Pastor Vic not only brings the first message of a new series but also the first message from our new venue; ie: The Lhanbryde Community Centre!

In this series, Pastor Vic will be reminding us of some foundational truths that will declare, to the listener, who Jesus is; why He came and what He did.

We need to know and understand these foundational truths so that we can declare the Word of God in spirit and in truth!

What is your 'Gethsemane'?

Michelle Good, a Moray Bible School graduate, brings this week's message.

She encourages us to choose to follow God's plan for our life. God does not force us to do anything but we need to choose to follow His plan of action; walls will fall when you action His instruction!

We have to operate in the authority given to us through Jesus; if we do not plant, how can God reap the harvest?

This was our last meeting of this season at the Warehouse in Lossiemouth. We are moving to Lhanbryde Community Centre, as of next week - 4 November.

NB: The first 3.40s of this message was taken from our FB broadcast audio.

No Excuses!

Pastor Vic, through using the example of David, once again exhorts us to take responsibility for our walk with God.

Whenever we face problems or uncertainity we can find solutions in His Word. We can be ministered to by God through His Word and through Godly advice from a fellow believer.

However, it is our choice to act and use the Godly solution. But there are no excuses if we do not do this and we still struggle with our circumstances.

You reign in life through Christ!

If you are a born again believer then you are living your life in grace through faith.

Even though there are no demands under grace, there is an expectation that we will take responsibility, and be accountable, for our actions and our relationships.

How we deal with situations, good and bad, in our lives, is a powerful witness to those we come into contact with each and every day!

Nothing was impossible for Jesus; therefore, through Him, nothing is impossible for the born again believer!

The Responsibility of Grace.

Do you understand that, as a born again believer, you are no longer living under the Old Covenant Law?

You now live under New Covenant Grace and this means that you no longer just do, or give, what you have to!

Under the law there were certain things that we had to do and there were set amounts to give. Grace releases us from those requirements but it is not an easy option!

Pastor Vic declares that grace expects but does not demand.

Grace is about what man can do through Christ!

The Elder Brother.

Pastor Vic, with this message, shows us that the parable of the Prodigal Son is about law and grace.

It shows us that we no longer have to work for blessings from Our Father and that our sins are no longer imputed to us!

The elder brother is a picture of the Old Covenant Law that, as a born again believer, you are no longer under!

Law or Grace?

As a born again believer do you walk your Christian walk under law or grace?

Do you reach out to God through the law and not by faith?

Like John the Baptist, do you question the sufficiency of Christ?

With this message, Pastor Vic exhorts the born again believer to accept that we live under grace and not law; because of Jesus Christ the law is not for the New Covenant, post cross believer.

Listen and you will hear that John the Baptist is a shadow of the Old Covenant law and why it had to be John the Baptist to baptise Jesus!

You are an overcomer!

Do you allow circumstances to negatively influence what you know God has put on your heart?

Through sharing personal testimony, Nunsy Cameron shares how God's Word has given her strength, comfort and assurance during a recent period of doubt.

Just like John the Baptist, we are all capable of allowing circumstances to make us doubt God's plan and purpose for our life.

We need to keep on keeping on and trust the promises of God that are in His Word. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Hebrews 13 v 5.

The Gospel in 7 Churches!

Following up the series on the first 3 chapters of the Book of Revelation, Sean Mason-Corkery guides us through the meanings of the names of the 7 churches.

You will hear that the Gospel, the Good News, is revealed through the 7 churches and that the finished work of the cross is central to our faith in Jesus!

NB: Be prepared with pen & paper to write down the many scripture references!

Revelation #9

In the final message of this series, based on the first three chapters of the Book of Revelation, Pastor Vic once again exhorts the listener to know and understand that Our God is loving and compassionate.

We hear that the pastor of the church at Laodicea was lukewarm. This is pointed out to him and he is given loving advice and encouragement to help him get things in line with God.

Traditional teaching has given a wrong understanding of chastisement and repentance; we need to recognise that the Lord is a loving heavenly Father who wants the best for us; right here, right now!
