Gospel Meeting 27/07/2014
Mr. Neil Bedford read Psalm 148
"Praise the Lord"
The Almighty God and the King of Kings reaches out in love grace and mercy calling all to faith and repentance.
He is not someone to fear He saved the Israelites from slavery through the blood of a lamb and we can be saved through the precious blood of the Lord Jesus who died on the cross at Calvary. He is a merciful giver.
He keeps His promises, He work through His Spirit and His word. He removes our sin from us as far as the east is from the west.
Are you experiencing the joy of the Lord, God's goodness is not dependent on our circumstances. Fully surrender all to Him and give Him all the praise.

Gospel Meeting 20/07/2014
Mr. Alistair Patterson read Matthew 11 vs.25-30.
Come, Take, Learn.
1/ The invitation of Jesus.
2/ The promise of Jesus.
3/ The instruction of Jesus.
4/ The example of Jesus.
Jesus has all power and authority nothing is too hard for Him, He is not one among others is is alone in His worth, so when He says come unto me it is something to take notice of.
Do we have a burden either as a sinner who needs Salvation or as a believer going through trials He is the one to answer our needs. There must be an acknowledgement of our need.
He will give us rest, we will be refreshed, revived, relieved.
The person of Jesus offers us rest through trust in Him.
His yoke is easy and His burden light, coupled together involves obedience and submission.
Galatians 2 vs.20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
We should follow the example of Jesus and be disciples follow His teaching, and be gentle and lowly.

Gospel Meeting 13/07/2014
Mr. Bruce Clark read Luke 12 vs.13-21 and Romans 8 vs.1-14
Earthly and Heavenly.
1/ An empty form of dead religion, always needing more. Accumulation.
2/ An inward power from the risen Christ, Kenosis an emptying of yourself as Christ did.
You can have a form of religion but no power more things don't mean more satisfaction materially or spiritually oneupmansship or looking down on others is not right. We don't need to impress God or others to achieve righteousness.
There is no condemnation in Christ, Christ's righteousness is our righteousness.
We come empty handed God's grace and goodness grows in us.
We are redeemed by His blood which He shed at the cross.
The Spirit gives us life.

Gospel Meeting 06/07/2014
Mr. Alex Collins read Psalm 24
Jesus King of Kings and Lord of Lords
The king of the Jews was crucified for you and me.
All things were made by Him and for Him.
Man's purpose in life is to glorify and serve God if you are not doing that then your life is vain and worthless.
We have been made for Eternity but only Jesus Christ meets the criteria to ascend the hill of the Lord or stand in in His holy place.
Heaven is closed to us because of our sin but Jesus entered Heaven after Calvary and if we repent and put our faith in Him and His work there we can enter through Him.
He is the Lord Almighty.

Gospel Meeting 29/06/2014
Mr. Jim Locke read Luke 13 vs.1-9, 23-29, 32-35.
Jim explained that this passage was addressed to the nation of Israel, but he wanted to draw out some applications for us today.
He said that because a particular disaster happens or people go through more suffering than others doesn't mean that those people are worse sinners than those who don't pass through them.
We are all sinners and we need to repent and be converted.
Luke 24 vs.46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Why do we need to repent? Because we are sinners and we are accountable to God.
God sent His Son to bring us mercy and Salvation. We need to repent and believe the Gospel.
Bring forth fruits of repentance, there is an opportunity to be saved and Jesus Christ is the only means of Salvation.
Few there are that get saved it is not something we slip into by association, we need to strive to enter the strait gate, our ambition needs to be to get saved it is not en-mass it is one by one through the narrow gate. Jesus said "I AM the door." When we realise that we have nothing and no hope in ourselves we must turn to Christ and rely on Him.
He knows His own and it is only through faith and trust in the death and shed blood of the Lord Jesus that we can be saved from a Hell that is far worse than we could ever imagine. Don't be left out, don't miss the opportunity to accept Him as your personal Saviour. He is coming to receive His own to be with Him in Heaven for Eternity.

Gospel Meeting 22/06/2014
Mr. Keith Clayton read Numbers 21 vs.4-9 and John 3 vs.14-21
The Serpent on a Pole.
Keith began by giving an outline of the experiences of the Children of Israel from slavery to the wilderness including the Passover and the Red Sea highlighting the many wonderful things that God had done for them and how special they were to Him.
The people were always moaning they would always take from God but were reluctant to give anything back to Him.
It is the same today people have a wrong idea of God, they blame God for everything and yet don't feel any accountability to Him. God hates sin and must punish it our sin brings judgement.
The people confessed and repented and God provided a way of escape from the snake bites.
Romans 6 vs.23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
We need to confess and repent and have a right relationship with God through faith and belief in the finished work of the Lord Jesus on the cross where He shed His blood for us. He died for our sin not His own.
Like the Israelites we should look and live, there is no worth in ourselves it is all of Christ.
God's grace brings Salvation through faith.
