Our Position to Christ
Many of us are familiar with the topical study of a believer’s position in Christ: “…I am a child of God… Saved by grace through faith… Redeemed from the hand of the foe… Led by the Spirit of God, a new creature… Redeemed from the curse of the law… Kept in safety wherever I go… [...]
Feast of Remembrance
Feast of Remembrance Imagine with me, if you will, this scene. The table is set – perhaps with finest china and silverware placed in decorative array. The smell of roasted meat and warm bread fills the room. Much preparation has been made before close family and friends come to recline at the table, anticipating the [...]
Unto the King Eternal, Unto the Reigning King
Unto the King Eternal, Unto the Reigning King Journeying from the East, the wise men came to seek This little child, born King of the Jews, Who’d walk to Calvary. King Herod did feel threatened, should his power be usurped. Yet, earthly thrones fail to compare to the glory Christ deserves! The Star led all [...]

The Apostle Paul counted “everything as loss” compared to the “surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus [his] Lord” (Philippians 3:8). He longed to “know [Christ], [...]
Earthshaking Truth
We’re all familiar with the recent great scale of human tragedy that struck Japan due to one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded, and ensuing tsunami. Officials report that the devastating earthquake actually shifted Japan’s coastline more than 2 meters away from its Korean neighbours, and that the axis of the earth also moved about [...]
Where Two or Three…
Where Two or Three… “No man is an island entire of itself.” Though these famous words, penned by English writer John Donne, refer largely to the relationship of one human being to the rest of humanity, they hold far greater truth to describe the relationship of a child of God to the body of Christ, [...]
Jesus Christ: The King Eternal
Jesus Christ: The King Eternal “Then king Darius wrote unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you. 26I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and stedfast for [...]
