Everyone is building their lives on something. The question is: can it hold the weight of eternity? 1 Peter 2:410 is a clear reminder that, as Christians, we are called to build our lives on Christ, our Cornerstone. He is the author and perfecter of our faith, and in Him.
Anything in this life, apart from Jesus Christ, which we look to as our functional saviour is an idol which God wants to expose today. And even if you claim to be an atheist. You need to see that that is your religion, and your religion has its own idols which you worship, and look to for worth and salvation. None of our idols can deliver, none can save us.
Who of us is not in need of comfort today? Who in this world does not crave to know comfor, especially at times when the world is in such chaos and turmoil, when wars and violence and terrorism is on the increase, when marriages are under attack and falling apart, when families are breaking up as children rebel against parents, when corruption seems to be the new normal in politics and policing,…
What many of us would probably be hesitant to admit, simply because we underestimate the true nature of the task, is that to love as God has called us to love is without the gospel an impossible task.

It is easy to drift away from God, it begins with forgetting the great work of our salvation and taking our eyes off Christ. So, 1 Peter 1 lifts our gaze away from ourselves and onto the greatness of God.
"Do you trust in the Suffering Servant whom God has provided to die in your place? And are you living now, by his resurrection, under the Lordship of Jesus as your King?"

Our guest preacher Angus takes us through Luke 18:9-14, guided by this passage he reminds us that it is wrong to assess our spiritual state by comparing ourselves with other people. When it comes to our righteousness, the standard is God, not those around us. This should bring us to humility and gratitude: humility because we will never reach Gods standard of righteousness and gratitude because…

Who or what do you trust in times of crisis? We know that sooner or later well face crises, but where do we run when things are falling apart? In Isaiah 36-37 we see how king Hezekiah dealt with the crisis that his nation was facing.
Scripture calls us to think seriously about our eternal destiny. We will either spend eternity with God, marvelling at the gift of salvation won on the cross, or we will spend eternity paying for our own sins, receiving God's wrath because God will always deal with sin. Hearing this message may just be your opportunity to receive the gift of salvation.
