Sermons

He Shall Glorify Me

There is a tendency of ministries to make the Holy Spirit the centre of attention but Jesus said that “he shall glorify me” in John 16:14. Those who have the Spirit of God in them should have, as their most natural tendency, to do likewise. It would be a cause of great confusion for Christians to want to draw attention to themselves, when it is Jesus Christ whom the Spirit of God is given to glorify!

Unbounded Prosperity

Isaiah 55 is a wonderful portion of the Old Testament presenting teaching of the unbounded property all could have in Christ eternally.

The Return Of Christ

The return of Christ is the single most anticipated event among both Christians and many in the world, but for very different reasons.

Testimonies

Lives have been transformed by the Lord across the world for near two thousand years. Real people with real lives have gone from darkness to light in their own personal way. With most of these same lives we can all find something to relate to and we hear of their journey to Christ.
These are some from Hope Baptist Church.

Apt To Teach

It is difficult to consider what else can be more important than that which has an impact that shall last for eternity. It is the Gospel therefore that must take its precedence over everything else, the Gospel we must all be apt to teach. Therefore, it is the preaching of the word of God that is the work that must be attended to with all diligence so that many may be made disciples.

For Thy Truth’s Sake

“Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake” Psalm 115:1 The Camp Report 2023 There are times when there can simply be no other explanation as to how things work out, in every form and manner this camp simply should not have been the blessing that it was, “BUT GOD”! It seems that the entire event was simply to prove the simplicity of the Gospel “for…

The Biblical Church and The Government

In the light of recent events and in the knowledge of the precedents that have been set, and further in the recognition that many pastors have awoken to the errors they had attended to in their misled choice in obeying the government above that obedience that is to be found in God alone, I have re posted this article written near a year ago in the hope it may encourage some.

Remembrance Day, But Have We Forgotten?

Remembrance Day, a day in which we call to mind those who paid the ultimate price for the liberties we have enjoyed, but for far too long we seem to have forgotten why the price was paid, how it was gained and what this world truly has to offer.
Vaccinated against Division

Vaccinated Against Division

Vaccinated Against Division 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all,…
False Teachers

“I Have Not Sent Them”

I Have Not Sent Them Are All Pastors Sent By God? I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. Jeremiah 23:21 It was ancient Babylon that the idea of the infallibility of the priest was first identified. Alexander Hyslop makes mention of the Priests of the mystery religions holding peculiar knowledge and were held with an esteem that was above reproach. Sadly, the idea that a priest, prophet, king or…

Ministries of Hope

Below are the avenues through which we teach and tell.

Prayer Meeting and Bible Study A wonderfully intimate time where members and guests of the Church come together to both pray and study.
