Expositions in Proverbs
The Saviour in Proverbs (23 mins)
David Castles preaches on references to the Lord Jesus Christ in the Proverbs. He groups them under three headings: Christ as the Son, Christ as the Saviour, and Christ as the Sovereign. Since Christ is the personification of wisdom, there is much in Proverbs that can be looked at in a Christological light (Message preached 2nd Nov 2014)
The Sluggard vs The Diligent Man (22 mins)
David Castles compares the sluggard – the lazy, slothful man – of Proverbs, with his opposite – the diligent man. The sluggard makes excuses, rarely starts anything and never finishes what he does. Applying these characteristics to the spiritual realm, David urges his audience to diligence in study of the Scriptures and in service for the Lord. “Go to the ant thou sluggard”! (Message preached 28th Sept 2014)
The Virtuous Women vs The Women of Vice (27 mins)
Josh Jacob contrasts the virtuous woman with the “strange” woman, or the “woman of vice”. One is hard to find, the other easy to find. One a home maker, the other a home breaker. One emphasising inner beauty, the other emphasising outer beauty. Biblical femininity and womanhood is contrasted with much that is seen in our culture’s feminist ideology and worldview (Message preached 14th Sept 2014)
