Sunday 16th October

Keith Clayton, Castleford, preached the gospel. He read from Isaiah chapter 1 vs. 10-20. These people came before God in empty ritual and with hypocrisy in their hearts. They had unclean hands and offered meaningless prayer. Much like people today who have an outward form of religion but do not truly know God. The Bible tells us 'all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.' It also tells us ' all our righteousness is like filthy rags.' How then can we be made righteous? Not by works, but by faith alone the Bible tells us. 'Being justified by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.'
