Terry Virgo - Works

There is a Saul in the Old Testament who, at the end of his life said 'I have played the fool'. There is a Saul in the New Testament who, at the end of his life said 'I have run the race, I have fought the fight!' God has plans for us and He wants us to fulfill them, to be good stewards of His manifold (multicoloured) grace.

Terry Virgo - Holiness

Martyn Lloyd-Jones used to call Romans 6 the most freeing chapter in the bible. But how do we live in this freedom? Is it up to me from here on, or is there a secret to a holy life?

Terry Virgo - Team

Just when the disciples are expecting Jesus to come as king and are fighting over potential positions in His kingdom, Jesus compels them to get into a boat and head into a storm. The storm was bad, but their thinking was even worse. Early promotion, positions or public ministry are far more dangerous than we'd like to think.

Terry Virgo - Grace

When we truly understand grace we will never be the same again. If Christ was the end of the law, if the law is obsolete and if we have been discharged from it's authority, what does that mean for us as Christians?

Father,Son,Spirit-Part 4

February 09:

The Holy Spirit, the gift and seal of our salvation, is in many cases shunned by those He was given to. Whether it be due to misunderstanding, a bad experience or comments made by friends and leaders, the Holy Spirit - in stead of being embraced by His people -  stands waiting for us to turn to Him and to no longer live separated from the Spirit of the Living God.

Father,Son,Spirit-Part 3

February 09:

For some, we see the Trinity as the Father, the Son and the Holy Scriptures. For others it's the Father, the Son and the Holy systems! To be baptised into the Holy Spirit is the lifeblood of the church and the privileged presence of the Spirit of the Living God in the life of a Christian.
