Matthew 2:1-10 | Saturday EV | 24/12/2016 | Tim Baldwin

Mark 6:30-44
Mark 6:30-44 | EV Church | 20/03/2016 | Craig Dobbie
'Moral truth' is often a casualty in our world today and if like Herod we practice ignoring right from wrong we destroy our consciences so that we can't respond rightly to Jesus. For the non Christian this means we should repent now, without delay. For the Christian it means we should resist the temptation to back down from telling the truth and living by the truth.

The Journey - Luke 9:18-27
Luke 9:18-27 | EV Church | 3/03/2013 | Craig Dobbie
Craig Dobbie preaching on Luke 9:18-27. Who is this man Jesus and what will it mean to follow him? The disciples were only half right a out who Jesus is. The Jews were expecting several great leaders - prophet, priest, servant king and a conquering messiah. They didn't expect these to be fulfilled in one man - Jesus. What will it mean to follow him? To die to the old selfish life, through daily repentance and to live to bring honour to God. To avoid the temptation of being ashamed of Jesus. Pray that you will remember that Jesus is both the suffering saviour and judge.
Fight the Good Fight
1 Timothy 6:3-21 | EV Night | 7/07/2024 | Dan Ford
Dan Ford breaks down "Fight the good fight of the faith" explaining that the Christian life is a good fight that's worth choosing every day we wake up. It means living life aligned with how we were made to live under God as our King. We press on in this, knowing that the reward at the end is guaranteed for us by Jesus, and not by our own merits, which is eternal life with our Lord.

Don Carson - Matthew 2:1-12
Matthew 2:1-12 | EV Church | 16/12/2012 | Don Carson
Don Carson reflects on the wise men's visit to Bethlehem and the insights for the gospel of Matthew. 1. Jesus is King 2. Gentiles are included in the gospel.The pagan wise men were Gentiles, as was Ruth (see genealogy in Matthew 1), right through to Matthew 28. 3. Evil forces will try to kill Jesus.Not only Herod, Satan etc. 4. The world Jesus comes to is evil. (Slaughter of infant boys 2 and under in second part of Matt 2) 5. God sometimes uses strange means. (Use of pagan wise men, plus numerous other examples throughout Matthew) 6. The coming if Jesus fulfills scripture. 7. God in His so sovereignty preserves (escape to Egypt, Matt 8:23) 8. At select points in history God intervenes more immediately. (The birth of Jesus includes 5 miracles - God is saying LOOK AT THIS! ) 9. Jesus is worthy of all worship. (The wise men and on the day of judgement 'All knees will bow' ) Pray that you will recognise the Lordship of Jesus, worship Him as our saviour.
