Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 30th April 2024. The human Race is very slow to learn that mocking God comes at a great price. The bible reveals thousands of years of people trying to deny God and they have paid for doing so. Bible prophecy clearly reveals the fate of all those who mock the source of their existance and the only source of their future life.

From Genesis to Revelation, God regularly expressed his consistent view about the nature of mankind. In Genesis, even after the flood, God recognised that "every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually". This is repeated in Jeremiah, in Psalm 14, and in Romans 3, with specific descriptions, the end result is the same... we are not able to obey the law, and not able to gain salvation by ourselves. But God promised to find a way, and we know that Jesus' sacrifice is that...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 2nd April 2024. God has prepared a gospel for the weakest of the weak, right through to the strongest of the strong. God cares for us much more than we can imagine. When we are weak, we can become strong, because that is when we hand over to God and let him do the work that we cannot. God can cover our sins as easy as Adam and Eve covered themselves with a fig leaf. God went one better and covered them more permanently with animal skins. By forgiving our...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 26th March 2024. This is one bible definition of faith. Hebrews Ch 11 v 1: "Now faith is the substance of (the reality of bringing about) things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (getting results from God)". Faith is almost undefinable as an emotion or a feeling, yet it works through actions and steadfastness for those filled with the Spirit. Faith is not a singular definable action, but rather it is the desire to place ourselves where God can work.

The Bible is full of God given signs and symbols that are often used to identify prophetic truths, prophetic dates and seasons, spiritual truths and metaphors, etc. These signs and symbols are often reflected in creation itself, thus taking on a dual role of natural functionality and spiritual metaphor at the same time. There are also supernatural signs and wonders that God uses to give credibility to spiritual truths and promises. In this age of the Spirit, Jesus spoke of the signs which...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 4th February 2024. Many of us understand the concept of stepping out in faith, but many fear they will weaken, make mistakes or be ignored by God. Abraham and Sarah are a good example for us to follow... they were guilty of all the above and more!

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 28th January 2024. A look through church history demonstrates that the Pentecostal experience did not end with the apostles, on or soon after the day of Pentecost, they received the Holy Spirit evidenced by speaking in tongues (Acts 2).

We get great lessons from Daniel about making a stand and not partaking of Babylon's delicacies. God has a plan and our encouragement from Daniel is to make our stand and let God sort it out, whatever may come. Babylon's power is all the pleasures of this life, but if we make a stand for God, He will lift us up.

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 23rd January 2024. When God offers you an amazing opportunity but you do not know how to do it; make your mind up to step out in faith... then ask God how to do it.! The word 'opportunity' was a term first used by sailors of wind driven ships and had a particular application. Its main usage came when the wind changed its direction and started to blow towards the harbour. This was the best time to head for safe and controlled mooring.

There are emotional storms and relationship storms and health storms, etc. Every part of life is made up of many challenging moments... storms can appear without warning, often doing great damage and sometimes claiming lives. Jesus Christ, through the power of the Holy Spirit, is able to lead us...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 17th December 2023. The nature of gift giving in the western world stems from concepts clearly established in the bible. From the scriptural point of view, Creation, Life, Eternal life are all gifts that no one is ever worthy of. This is simply the nature of God... the giver of gifts. The gifts given to Jesus by the Magi (wise men), represented the destiny he would fulfil as the Son of God... these gifts were also symbolic of the gifts he would grant us......

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 3rd December 2023. When Paul wrote his letter to the Corinthian church, he touched on many things that they were not aware of, or had missed in their priorities to serve God. Some of God's purposes were confused with their own ambitions. The following scriptures reveal a variety of scriptural truths that most people may not be aware of... some comfortable and some not so comfortable.

Delivered By Mick Milazzo on 26th November 2023. A timely reminder that we are called, in Christ, to serve others. The more we deliberately serve, getting out of our own thinking, our problems and shortcomings, the more God can use us. Our joys and fulfillments of life are found in serving. Fellowship is the best place to do this. A great example of a life well lived is our sister Elva Joske. Serving and encouraging all around her. Her timely advice to us all at her 93rd birthday, keep going...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 29th October 2023. The temple curtain separated the Holy Spirit from the people due to their sins. Only the high priest could enter, once a year, for the sins and ongoing blessings of the people. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ gave people the ability to access the holy spirit and its blessings, without the need for separation (the veil was torn in half).

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 08th October 2023. In the 1860s, a 'dead line' within or around a prison. Prisoners would be shot for crossing the 'dead line'. However, the sense of a deadline that is most commonly found today ("a date or time before which something must be done") did not begin to see use until the early 20th century. A newer translation has come about in recent history where it has taken another meaning. We are all confronted with deadlines. Bills must be paid, licenses...

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 17th September 2023. Part 1. Today, we live in an age of increasing madness where just about any stupidity can be called truth... and people believe them. Lack of integrity and tested truth are obvious to many, but how many dare challenge such foolishness? God already warned the West (the descendants of Abraham) that these troubles were coming.
