  • Condemnation

    I don’t know about you but I really don’t like the word Condemnation. Judges use it when passing sentences on an accused who has been found guilty and sentenced to a punishment which can include death. It must be a terrible thing to be condemned especially to death. The bible tells us that the wages…

  • Faith for the race

    Our pastor at church encouraged us a year ago to run the race of faith set before us with these words: You can run a lap of faith; One Step at a time – Mark 1 Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left…

  • Shepherds – after Gods own heart

    “Then I will give you Shepherds after my own heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding”. Jeremiah 3:15 We live in times when good shepherds are certainly needed in the body of Christ. In Hosea, we are warned that Gods people perish or are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Ignorance is certainly not…
