THE GREAT DANGER OF BEING A FAKE CHRISTIAN (Jeremiah 9:23-26)
Dec 14, 2025Being a fake Christian is not difficult to do. An empty pseudo-Christian faith is a real phenomenon. The Lord Jesus Christ said, "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21).
How those who are baptised must ensure that they are truly born again, having received the Holy Spirit to dwell within, serving Christ with renewed hearts, pursuing all holiness of life, and maintaining a separation from this world’s fashionable ways of thinking. Are we Na...

Dec 06, 2025This description of Paul’s preaching in Athens teaches us how the Gospel should be responded to today, if men are to saved from the terrifying consequences of their sin. All without faith in Christ who hear the gospel should :

3) Reject the spirit of the age and all false religion
4) Repent of all sin, and trust in Christ’s death and resurrection for salvation. Without doing this, you will be lost when...

Nov 23, 2025God has saved us in order that we might, as His priests, offer up the spiritual sacrifices of a holy life in obedience to His holy law. Therefore, by the power of the Spirit, as we long for the milk of the word, we shall indeed be able to lay aside malice, guile, hypocrisies, envies and evil speaking. We must, however, as newborn babes, cry out for the milk of God’s word, that we might feed on His truth and so grow more like Christ in holiness, to the glory of His Name. One cannot be a true Ch...

May 08, 2025Britain was delivered from a powerful enemy in 1945. Ultimate victory was achieved. In 1940 the nation being invaded and overrun was a distinct possibility and the most likely outcome, but a humbled people prayed. In fact, during WW2 there were 12 national days of prayer. We can only understand our nation's deliverance in the context of the precious word of God, the Bible, and its teachings on the providence of God.
