Sunday 26th February

Stephen Downs (Harrogate) read from Luke Chapter 24 and 1 Corinthians Chapter 15 concerning the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He spoke on the resurrection, "the resurrection is the greatest truth in all of scripture." The one who was resurrected was the sinless one who was made sin for us. He was resurrected by the glory of God the Father who accepted the sacrifice of His Son. He was seen by over 500 people at one time as well as all of his disciples as proof he rose from the dead. The purpose of his death and resurrection is to make many people righteous.

John Richardson (Harrogate) read from Acts Chapter 17 about Paul's witness concerning Christ to the Athenians at the Areopagus. The Athenians in Paul's day, shortly after Jesus' death were religious people, but they worshipped a God they did not know. Paul declared to them who God is. Hi is the Creator of the world, he gives life to us and determines our time on earth. Paul revealed that God now commands all me everywhere to repent because God has set a day when He will judge the world by Jesus Christ whom He raised from the dead. It is through believing in Jesus that we have forgiveness and are able to come before God with our sins cleansed because Jesus died for us.

Sunday 5th February

Philip Martin (Leeds), formally a member of the fellowship spoke on Psalm 23. David, the writer of the Psalm, testified to the Lord as his shepherd. David knew all about shepherding as he was a shepherd himself. The Lord as our shepherd provides for us, leads us and restores us. He gives us the power to do what is right, and his presence dispels fear in the day of trouble. Those of us who are His sheep will live with Him forever.
