Comments Off on Our Messiah — Humanity’s Hope, Videos, by CGP.
Many religions talk of the coming of a Messiah. But often the view whether biblical or secular, is limited in scope. People are looking for a charismatic individual to save them from their plight and the heavy-handed rule of tyrants or foreign powers. And though the Messiah of the Hebrew and Greek scriptures will come to deliver the oppressed, to rule over the nations, and to establish justice, he was anointed to perform an even greater mission. Do you know who the Messiah is, the mission he was given, and how he will fulfill his destiny ? More
Comments Off on Enemies: Dealing with the Adversaries, Videos, by CGP.
Jesus had enemies, those who hated his message and denied his authority to speak for God. And those who follow in Jesus’ footsteps as his disciples will also need to deal with enemies. Yet, ultimately, Jesus, the Lord of Lords, will return and when he does his adversaries will attempt to fight against him. But the Lord of Hosts will defeat those who hate him and remain hostile to his way of life. The Lord will destroy all of his enemies, but this is only the final chapter in a long history.
So what about now? And what about us? What should our attitude and approach be when it comes to our adversaries?
The scriptures provide ample guidance. More
Comments Off on Christ — Who is Your Rock?, Videos, by CGP.
Where do You Find Stability?
Who is Your Rock? When it comes to security and safety, the bible uses the metaphor of building on the Rock, instead of sand or gravel. Over the past decade people in a variety of places around the world have experienced disastrous consequences for having built on sand. At these locations in times of earthquake, buildings, roads and bridges have been destroyed due to liquefaction of the underlying sand or silt. This has had huge costs in terms of lives lost and infrastructure damaged. Spiritually speaking, if we build on sand – worthless and shifting ideologies — when tectonic social or political shifts occur, the result is personal disaster. So are we building on the Rock or on sand? More
Comments Off on The Father — Providing the Foundation of Enduring Societies, Videos, by CGP.
The Foundation of Enduring Societies
Respectful obedience to honourable parents formed the cornerstone in many harmonious, prosperous communities and the foundation of enduring societies.The importance of honouring father and mother was embedded from the beginning in God’s divine directives.
Abram — the exalted Father — was promised the blessing of children, but he did not receive it immediately. It was only after experiencing 24 years of challenges that Abram was blessed miraculously with his son Isaac. But those years of hardship and the challenges of managing a large clan and walking with God in tough times had been a test. More
Comments Off on Pentecost – Living Pure Lives through the Spirit, Videos, by CGP.
A Common Thread
The Feast of Pentecost looks forward to the time prophesied by Malachi and it looks back to the giving of the law at Sinai. But there is a common thread. God is looking for the pure in heart to worship him. On occasion, God does break into history as he did when he spoke the commandments from the top of the mountain. But at the future time prophesied by Malachi, only the pure will be able to face the Lord when he returns to the earth.
So, what is that pure heart that the Lord God appreciates? More
Comments Off on God’s Promises and Providence – God Will Provide, Videos, by CGP.
The question of how God works in the lives of his people is one that looms large. Those without faith in God look at the horrors of society and question whether God is at work at all. But we have biblical examples to help us realize the blessing of God’s promises and providence for those who serve him and love his ways.
The story of Lot and his wife provide an object lesson about God’s deliverance of those who trust him and the consequences of having our hopes and dreams tied up in the material world. The story of Ruth and Naomi gives us the hope that if we set our heart to follow God he will supply all of our needs.
The scripture says ‘all things work together for good, for those who love God and are called according to his purpose’ What does this mean in the context of the suffering in the world and the hope of God’s promises? More
Comments Off on Civilization’s Lynchpin — The Fifth Commandment, Videos, by CGP.
The fifth commandment unites the two key concepts of love for God and love for neighbour that provide the executive summary of God’s will for humanity. The fifth commandment is one of family loyalty, that is owed to God as our spiritual Father and Creator, and our parents as those who were our first caregivers. And it is the family that has provided the foundation for all civilized society.
