Who’s your Mama?


My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you. We are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.

God Eternal

But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.

The law in our hearts

I plead with you to live as I do in freedom from these things, for I have become like you Gentiles were – free from the law.

The walk of the cross

Because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"  So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.

The full rights of sons

What the gospel gives us is nothing short of the full rights of a first born son. Today Rory unpacks what this means for us in our day to day relationship with God.

The Law and the Promise

God is saying to us: “I’ve given you my Promise. I wont delay. At the perfect time my plan will be revealed”. This Promise Agreement is dependent only on the Promiser

The Power of the Gospel

For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!"

Unanswerable Questions

Though I were innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my Judge for mercy. Even if I summoned him and he responded, I do not believe he would give me a hearing.

God speaks through the storm

The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.

God speaks through the storm

Then the Lord said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil."

Find the book

Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the secretary, “I have found the Book of the Law in the temple of the Lord.”

So that we may know Him better

What would it look like if what God did in our midst this year is still reverberating through the city in 2064? What if all we need is to know Him better? Ephesians 1

Bring what you have

His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?” “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.

In the beginning

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

Christ at the heart of Christmas

This will be a sign for you: You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloth and lying in a manger.

Blessing in Suffering

We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.

My dear children

My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,  how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you!

No Sweat

For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us

Yet so close

Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law. You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

Standing

Consider Abraham: “He believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Understand, then, that those who believe are children of Abraham.

Justification by Faith

For I know that I am not justified by works, but by faith in Jesus Christ, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Fear of man

When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong. Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group.

Keep one foot in the water

Galatians is often like a good marinade, slowly transforming hard hearts to soft, gospel centred hearts. Join us as we gaze on the wonder of the gospel and trust in the life changing power of grace.

We are a gospel people

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!

The call on 3ci

With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.

Anchored to the promises of God

And now it is because of my hope in what God has promised our ancestors that I am on trial today.

So that

God did this breathtaking, majestic creation, so that we would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, for he is not far from any one of us.

Open your heart

One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul’s message.
