Gill Visser encourages us once more as we move closer to the closing of the church. She is wanting to inspire and build us up through the series of talks that she has given and will be giving. Today she looks at Faith. Biblical faith was never merely intellectual agreement. The Hebrew understanding of faith is far heavier and more meaningful, more dangerous and more beautiful than just "I believe…
Mark Stoneham continues the series on Galatians, looking at Chapter 5, where his bible, like most bibles, gives a heading of Freedom in Christ. In this chapter Paul delivers the knockout punch and shows that by adhering to the Jewish customs these Judaizers were in fact perverting and invalidating the victory that Jesus had won on the cross.
Gill continues to encourage us as she teaches in the weeks between our Galatians series. She poses this point of our walk with God - There are thirsts in life that nothing in this world can satisfy, often appearing during quiet moments in the day. There is a longing for God, for His presence, something deeper than we have ever known.
Jonny Rose continues the Galatians series looking at the first part of Chapter 4 where Paul confronts the churches about listening to the false apostles and wanting to incorporate the Law into their practices and ceremonies, taking them back into slavery to the Law instead of being sons and daughters of the living God.
As we prepare to close Grace Vineyard in September Gill Visser continues to encourage and prepare the congregation for this time. While we are waiting for our last service, God still has things for us to do, we need to be active in our waiting. Gill looks at the untold story behind the song Waymaker by Sinach.
Mark Visser continues the Galatians series looking at Chapter 3, which is the beginning of the discussion section of Paul's letter to t he Galatian churches. He challenges them as to why they are being led astray by these false apostles, giving scriptural evidence for his claims. This is a message that needs to be viewed more than once as there is a lot to it.
Gill Visser continues to encourage the church as we prepare to close Grace Vineyard at the end of September, looking at how we go through different seasons in our lives, but God is always with us. The people of Grace are coming to the end of a chapter, not the end of the book, God is taking each and every one of them into the next chapter of their life.
Mark Visser continues with the Galatians series looking at Chapter 2. Paul continues establishing his credentials with the Galatian church, speaking of his meeting with James, Peter and John, the leaders of the church in Jerusalem, clarifying that the gospel he is preaching is the same as the gospel they are preaching. Paul also speaks of how he called Peter out for his behaviour amongst the…
After the announcement at the beginning of the month that Grace Vineyard is to close at the end of September, Gill poses the question, How Are You Feeling? and tries to answer the question by looking at Scripture to help us navigate this difficult time.
Mark Visser introduces the book of Galatians, as we begin an 8 week series looking at Paul's letter or epistle, to the churches in Galatia. Galatians is not really a book, but was actually only a letter from Paul the apostle, to the church in Galatia. Mark helps us to understand the setting and context of this letter from Paul.
