Acts 4   Peter and John brought the name of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit to raise up a man who had been lame his entire life. The reaction of the crowd brought the concern of the temple officials because they didn’t want their authority undermined. Peter and John, who had been jailed the night before, were given opportunity to defend themselves in the highest court in the land. The boldness of the two men was noted. The authorities recognized they had

1Cor 15:9,13 John 20 Our greatest hope is that Jesus is coming again at the Resurrection. Because He was raised from the dead we too will be resurrected either in death or at the time of the Rapture. This sermon follows Mary Magdalene’s journey from sorrow to hope when she encounters the risen Lord Jesus Christ. Mary initially sees only an empty tomb, blinded by grief and unable to recognize Christ’s victory. The empty tomb, framed by two angels, is presented as the fulfillment

These reflections develop on my message on May 31 based on Isaiah’s detailed foretelling about Jesus seven hundred years before His incarnation. The details include his physical appearance, the purpose of his human ministry, and the severity of his punishment, agony, and suffering. It confirms that Jesus always was, even before creation, before the Gospel recordings, and always will be into eternity.                     . Malcolm Ross

In Kenya that same year only 5% professed faith in Jesus. Today 2026 less than 5% of Canadians claim to be born-again believers while in Kenya 25% profess faith in Jesus as Saviour. A preacher underlined the danger of 100 years. He listed a number of schools, colleges, universities and church denomination that started out with

  (A brief summary of Malcolm’s message) Jesus’ Submission to the Father’s will: (John 1:10-12) Our relationship with our earthly father may not be a healthy one; if so we need to let God transform our hearts. Jesus’ Obedience to His Father’s Word: (John 8:28-29, John 11:41-42) Jesus said yes to an impossible journey. He prayed, he listened for his father’s voice.  We too have to submit to what God wants us to do, with prayer, daily communication with God. God can do the impossible;

Faith, Hope, and Love 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3 The apostle Paul often brings up these 3 virtues when addressing the churches that he so diligently served; but his intention was never to leave them as vague ideas, but rather to be recognized as real actions in the lives of those who had chosen to follow Jesus. Today is no different, our faith, our hope, and our love are meant to be seen by the world around us as significant changes in our lives

Philippians 4:4-9 I think that many of you are aware that the book of Philippians is one of my favourite Bible books. As a missionary on home assignment I would go to various churches to report on the work and to thank them for their participation in finances and prayer. Both are important. Without financial backing we could not serve in the overseas. Without prayer there was no purpose in going. At one point when I realized that the letter to
