Putting Complete Confidence in God given Peterborough Canada 2 August 2008 |
| Our relationship with God must certainly be two-way: talking to Him through prayer, while listening carefully as His scriptures instruct us. But even more is required if we are to become one of His Spirit-born children. That miracle so often requires us to "stand still" (Ex 14:13) - in total confidence - as He personally converts us from what we are, to what He requires. (13.0 Mb) | ||

Remember Lot's Wife given Bristol UK 19 July 2008 |

| Begins: "In a way it seems strange to me to be back here in Vancouver, Washington. I lived here for 6 months in 1924..."

Restore All Things given Wales UK 5 July 2008 |
| A prophecy given by Jesus Christ is that "Elijah truly shall first come and restore all things" (Matt 17:10-11). But there are those who dispute whether HWA could have been the fulfilment, as we don't know "all things" today. This totally misses what the prophecy says. This sermon examines: What the first Elijah restored; The lost century; The end-time needs; and The breadth of the gospel. (11.3 Mb) | ||

Declining Standards given Wales UK 21 June 2008 |

“Just what is an APOSTLE?”
Today we find the Church of God in a “wilderness of religious confusion!”
The confusion is not merely around the Church – within the religions of the world outside – but WITHIN the very heart of The True Church itself!
