Making Great Summer Choices 8

Speaker: Ps. Mike Kirkpatrick

Bible reading: Luke 23:39-43

Jesus never came to give us what we think we want.
Jesus never came to give the religious leaders, what they thought they wanted.
Jesus never came to give the crowd or the criminal on the cross, what they thought they wanted.
He never came to make His followers healthy, or wealthy or happy, although it is true that some of us may receive some of all of those blessings in following Jesus, that is not what Jesus came for,
Jesus came to die, that’s why He was on the cross, Godman who is without sin came to die for our sins. So that we can be put right with God and set free.

Sermon

Making Great Summer Choices 6

Speaker: Ps. Mike Kirkpatrick

Bible reading: Matthew 9:1-8

know that we all need forgiveness – come into the presence of Jesus
you don’t have to do or be anything – the scandal is that your forgiveness is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone
so, in what area of your life are you needing forgiveness?
the antidote to our religious hypocrisy is, every morning, remember His grace

Sermon

Making Great Summer Choices 5

Speaker: Ps. Mike Kirkpatrick

Bible reading: Matthew 8:5-13

Bad things happen to ordinary people. So do miracles sometimes and
anyone can approach Jesus because God’s grace is for everyone
God’s power is made perfect in our weakness – just as it was at the cross
Don’t get shut out of the Kingdom or God. Put your faith in Jesus, for
the miracles of Jesus point to something far better that is to come

The Rich Young Ruler

Speaker: Abram Gunn

Bible reading: Mark 10:17-31

We need to humble and open when we come to God.
In this story, we are the Rich Young Man.
We may feel like we have everything, we come to God and say “Lord please help me because I have got everything, but not realising it, help me to make sure, it doesn’t stop me from following you.”
Trust Jesus with your life and your future.

Making Great Summer Choices 1

The choice of Simon the Pharisee and the sinful woman

Speaker: Ps. Sandy Citro

Bible reading: Luke 7: 36-50

We have to make a choice as this start of the new year.

Are we going to be like Simon who thinks we are perfectly fine and we don’t need a saviour?

Or are we going to be like the sinful woman, who knows that something is not right, and you know that you are in sin, and you need someone to save you?

In this new year, will Jesus be just a guest of your heart, that you entertain only when you feel like it or will you give Him the honour as the sinful woman did?
