God’s Meal With Sinners – 1 Corinthians 10:15-22; 11:17-34
[See post to watch Flash video] Download video | Download audio In the Corinthian culture, people enjoyed eating and drinking together, and so the Lord’s Supper appealed to the church in Corinth as a time of getting together for a feast with wine – but it lost its true meaning, and Paul wants to remind them about [...]
There are lots of miracles in the bible, can we still see things like that to convince us?
As a non-believer it is not uncommon to think that the way in which you are likely to become a believer is to see a miracle. So is this a reasonable way to pursue belief in God? Firstly, we need to back up a bit and see why Jesus performed miracles in the bible. The purpose [...]

Jonah 3  Warning

Get the Flash Player to see this player.

 
 
Jonah 3:1 is beautiful. God heals us by sending us again. When we thought we were unsendable (and if you have not come to that point you are certainly unsendable).
 
Have you heard God’s word to you for Brighton? It’s ringing in our ears.
 
HE HAS SENT CCK TO BRIGHTON – AND HE IS SENDING US AGAIN…
 
Why has he sent us? It is (3.3 Hebrew) ‘a great city to God’. He is jealous to have a dwelling – a house – here in this ‘pagan’ place.
 
Our message, like Jonah’s, is one of warning – and has to be. In Jonah’s case it came with terseness. But God’s mercy can only roll down to wicked cities because of one who came to the city of his rightful throne, knowing it would utterly reject him – and still sobbed out his warnings without relent for their sakes and not for his own.
 
God will turn people. Some will be within our ‘reach’ and some will surprise us. Kings are destined to shut their mouths because of him (Isaiah 52:1-12). Some big pillars of the temples of our city will become pillars of the church. God has many in this city – in spite of how weak we are as messengers.
 
How did they respond to God? Be sure to give your heart in repentance and prayer – they ‘called out mightily to God’
