Sermons on Various Gospel Messages
The Gospel in Acts 2 (40 mins)
In this sermon, Nick Harvey reads from Acts chapter two; a chapter that introduces sign-gifts, Peter’s spirit-empowered sermon, and the conversion of 3,000 souls. Nick brings out the gospel message from the passage, that all of us need to repent and put our faith in Jesus Christ, and be saved.
The Conversion of Cornelius (36 mins)
Peter preaches the conversion of Cornelius which, like any other conversion, was by repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. The truth of the gospel message is that God desires that we should all be ‘repent and be converted’. Repentance is the necessary change of heart toward sin that God expects of us. Further more, we can be saved, forgiven, and have a relationship with God all because of Jesus Christ, and His death and resurrection.
Are we supposed to be independent from God? (36 mins)
In this gospel sermon, Joel reads from Genesis 3 and examines where man’s desires to be independent from God comes from. We discussed Adam’s own efforts to create an apron of fig leaves to hide his shame and compared it to God’s provision of a coat of skins (an early picture of the Lord Jesus being provided by God for our salvation). We also read from Matthew 14 and investigated how it was dependence on the Lord that enabled Peter…
The urgency of ‘today’ (25 mins)
Tom Armstrong delivers a challenging gospel sermon in which he looks at the various uses of the word ‘today’. He reminds us of the day that the Lord Jesus was born into this world, the day that Zacchaeus received the Lord Jesus, and the day that the Lord Jesus saved a guilty criminal from his sins. Has there been a day when the Lord saved you?
Without God and without hope (21 mins)
Robin Steele brings before us the various positions we can be in regarding God. For those that are still lost, they are described as being ‘without God and without hope’. He preached on the coming of the Lord Jesus into this world, at which point Christ was referred to as ‘Immanuel’ which means ‘God with us’. Because Christ came into this world, died for our sins and rose again from the dead, we can have the knowledge of all sins…
How can a sinner get ‘right’ with God? (35 mins)
Arran preaches from Paul’s epistle to the Romans and chapter 9, emphasising Paul’s argument that none of us are righteous as a result of our own works, regardless of whether we consider ourselves to be good, or religious, or not. Instead, it is only through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that we can obtain a ‘right’ standing before God, who is the Judge of all.
Satisfaction in a dissatisfying world (30 mins)
The world has lots of pleasures to offer. However, these things never truly satisfy and are designed to distract us from coming to Christ for salvation. In this challenging gospel message, A. Summers preaches the Lord Jesus Christ as the Saviour of sinners. Jesus Christ doesn’t just forgive sinners of the sins, but he gives them new life entirely!
We cannot save ourselves from our sins, we need Christ! (31 mins)
Nick Harvey preaches on the need of a new birth without which one can’t go into heaven. Our works won’t do anything to take or sins away- receiving the Lord Jesus as our Saviour is the only way to be born again and become a new creature in Christ.
Only Christ can satisfy our soul’s need (51 mins)
In this meeting, Jonathan Black tells us about the woman of Samaria in John chapter 4. Having talked to the Lord Jesus, who knew everything about her, she discovered that she needed something far more important than water, she needed everlasting life which only Christ can give.
The substance of the gospel (40 mins)
Peter Scarsbrook preaches the gospel and highlights 4 aspects of the gospel. Substance of the gospel, scope of the gospel, simplicity of the gospel and solemnity of the gospel.
What is your opinion of Jesus Christ? (31 mins)
Oliver speaks on four opinions found in the Bible, man’s opinion of God, God’s opinion of man, God’s opinion of His Son, and our opinion of the Lord Jesus Christ. He emphasises that our opinion of Jesus Christ matters, as it impacts where we spend eternity.
God is light & God is love (37 mins)
In this gospel message, we examine a couple of the significant statements that describes who God is. God is light, in Him there is no darkness at all. During creation, God saw that the light was good. This reminds us of the purity and moral perfection of God, as seen in the Lord Jesus Christ. We also consider that God is love. This was proven to us when the Lord Jesus died on the cross for sinners. This incredible act…
The Prodigal Son (25 mins)
Reading from Luke 15, a chapter of lost things, Joel preaches repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. In this parable, a rebellious son leaves his father to live his life according to his own desires. This brought him to a point of desperate need. Having repented and returned to his father, his father graciously received and restored his son; who was dead, but is now alive, who was lost, but is found.
God’s Mercy and forgiveness
Jeremy reads from Daniel 9:9 to point out two things about mankind and two things about God. We have rebelled against the holy God, meaning that we are deserving of His eternal judgement of sin. The good news of the gospel is that though God is holy, He shows mercy and forgiveness to those that repent of their sin, and put their trust in Jesus Christ for salvation.
The Gospel in Five Words (27 mins)
David McAllister preaches a powerful gospel message, explaining the gospel in five words: Christ. Died. For. Our. Sins. Taking up 1 Corinthians 15:3, David emphasises the importance of “our sins”, the problem that we have, but the remedy that has been provided because “Christ died”. What links these great truths? The word “for”. It was for our sins that Christ has died. This message will repay careful listening for those who are struggling to understand why Christ died. (Message preached…
