A better covenant
The new and better sacrifice
Hebrews 9:1-14 | EV Night | 23/10/2022 | Todd Parry-Jones
The Holy Spirit, along with the Hebrews author, teaches us that the Old Covenant sacrifices were not able to bring people into God's presence, because they couldn't clear people's consciences. In this sermon Todd Parry-Jones shares with us that Jesus' sacrifice, once for all, is INFINITELY BETTER - it cleanses us of our sin, and clears our guilty consciences, so that we can draw near to God with confidence!
Digging Deeper: Good and Angry - Can God be both?
1 & 2 Kings | Special Event | 1/09/2025 | John Woodhouse
We've come across some confronting scenes in Kings. God's judgement against his Old Covenant people results in human armies killing and destroying. How do we reconcile the idea of a gracious forgiving God with the violence that we see in the Old Testament? John Woodhouse, former principal and Old Testament lecturer at Moore Theological College helps us think through what it means to believe in the one just and gracious God of the Old and New Testaments.
Judges 2:6-19
Judges 2:6-19 | EV Church | 5/05/2013 | Tim Baldwin
Tim Baldwin provides an introduction to Judges. God's people finally get to inhabit the promised land, to fulfil the promises made to Abraham. And what should have been a great experience for God's chosen people, becomes a series of generations who reject God, are rescued by a Judge, then fall away into worse behaviour. As God calls his people to drive out the other nations - it's worth considering if Holy war is ever ok? 1. It was punishment for their wickedness (see Gen 15) 2. God owns all land and was fulfilling His promise (Deut 7:7) 3. To maintain the covenant relationship (Deut 7:6) What about now this side of Jesus? No - it's not ok to use these verses to justify war, we are in Exodus preparing for the new Kingdom Yes - spiritually we are at war, and need to rage Holy war on sin.
