It Is Not About You

By Mick Milazzo [Brisbane] on the 26/11/2023

Delivered By Mick Milazzo on 26th November 2023. A timely reminder that we are called, in Christ, to serve others. The more we deliberately serve, getting out of our own thinking, our problems and shortcomings, the more God can use us. Our joys and fulfillments of life are found in serving. Fellowship is the best place to do this. A great example of a life well lived is our sister Elva Joske. Serving and encouraging all around her. Her timely advice to us all at her 93rd birthday, keep going to church and keep praying.

Don't Repair The Curtain

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 29/10/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 29th October 2023. The temple curtain separated the Holy Spirit from the people due to their sins. Only the high priest could enter, once a year, for the sins and ongoing blessings of the people. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ gave people the ability to access the holy spirit and its blessings, without the need for separation (the veil was torn in half).

The Day The Earth Stops

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 8/10/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 08th October 2023. In the 1860s, a 'dead line' within or around a prison. Prisoners would be shot for crossing the 'dead line'. However, the sense of a deadline that is most commonly found today ("a date or time before which something must be done") did not begin to see use until the early 20th century. A newer translation has come about in recent history where it has taken another meaning. We are all confronted with deadlines. Bills must be paid, licenses renewed, tax returns filed... the list goes on and on. Despite the different meanings, one deadline is of supreme importance. It is one we all face.

If It Can Be Destroyed By The Truth, It Should Be!

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 17/9/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 17th September 2023. Part 1. Today, we live in an age of increasing madness where just about any stupidity can be called truth... and people believe them. Lack of integrity and tested truth are obvious to many, but how many dare challenge such foolishness? God already warned the West (the descendants of Abraham) that these troubles were coming.

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 5/9/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 5th September 2023. The best way to get the best results is to get the best advice. One of the greatest gifts of the Spirit is wisdom.

Today we will be looking at the efficient use of wisdom and one of its greatest revelations.

Evil Men Waxing

By Neil Creek [Brisbane] on the 3/9/2023

Delivered By Neil Creek on 3rd September 2023. The apostle Paul alerted Timothy that evil men will wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. Moving away from God's word is never a plan for success and Paul encourages Timothy and also Titus to hold fast to what they have been taught. We would do well to do the same today.

True Salvation Is Built On Signs

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 27/8/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 27th August 2023. All of the world's great religions are based on historic and established beliefs. Not one of them offers any God powered evidence (observable evidence), of their claims. Not only is true salvation based on signs, most major events in God's creation and his plans for his people have been identified with signs and wonders... it is God's way.

Freed From Condemnation

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 13/8/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 13th August 2023. The human race needs to know the facts about God's salvation and the positive effect that flows from it. The clarity and assurance of forgiveness needs to be the primary understanding for the church. The role of the priest has always been one of clear and precise intercession on behalf of the person they are dealing with. It was God's intention that people would confess, offer a sacrifice and leave the temple with a clear understanding of forgiveness. Too many times, the doctrinal or economic corruption of the priesthood left people uncertain about their spiritual status. We can help others avoid the same problem by having a clear understanding of how forgiveness and New Testament salvation works.

The Fields Are Already White To Harvest

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 6/8/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 6th August 2023. When Jesus spoke of the fields being white unto harvest, he was using a natural agricultural reality to describe a natural truth. It is rather easy to work out when wheat is ready to harvest... the tops of the grain turn a whitish colour. Jesus then related to the spiritual harvest; the saving of souls. Firstly we have to look up, or turn Godward or we won't gain an increase. It is God that pricks the hearts and prepares people to understand scriptural blessing. We share our testimony and experience and they have their chance... But it is always their choice.

Options

By Pastor Arthur Marshman [Brisbane] on the 23/7/2023

Delivered By Pastor Arthur Marshman on 23rd July 2023. When God created mankind he gave them dominion over the world he created. A result of this is that each individual has dominion over their own life. Just like when we choose a car, we have options to choose from. How we live our lives is determined by the options we choose. God gives us the options of: light and darkness, good and evil, life and death. The right choices lead to eternal life.

Nothing Changes Till Something Changes Pt1

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 16/7/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 16th July 2023. To get a change from your circumstances, something a lot more than being aware needs to happen. Prayer, fellowship, the gifts, witnessing, all need to occur by changing... they require steps of faith and momentum. Thoughts and desires need to be activated. Most people don't realise that every prayer to God revolves around him changing something... every answered prayer changes something... And that is the key to getting blessings.

Tell Us Something We Don't Know

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 12/7/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 12th July 2023. "Trivia" comes from a roman god of the same name, who was very fond of sprouting random and irrelevant facts. He was named Trivia because he was the god of the intersections of three roads, and that's where he would waylay travellers with his useless knowledge. Three roads, hence the name tri-via, Latin for three roads. Thus, trivia (or trivial) has now become the label used against facts or truths that are considered unimportant or unwanted. 'Tell us something we don't know' is a more recent form of sarcasm used to imply that the line of thought or truth is now out of fashion and not to be discussed... it is implied that it has been exhausted or settled and nothing more can be learned from it. Cancel culture is a much blunter way of silencing people who they don't want to hear (often labelled as hate speech). There are many more ways used by people who simply are not honest enough to face or debate rational facts. God has had to deal with these human deceits from the beginning of creation.

The Law Of Unintended Consequences

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 9/7/2023

The law of unintended consequences refers to the idea that actions or decisions can have unforeseen and unintended consequences, often in ways that are not immediately apparent. This can occur because complex systems often have multiple interconnected parts, and a change of one part of the system can have ripple effects that are difficult to predict. This is also true for those who reject a relationship with God.

Salvation Is A Gift Not A Reward

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 2/7/2023

Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 2nd July 2023. The human race is able to enjoy all of God's natural and Spiritual creation without charge. Everything we see and love, every person we know and care about, are all created by God as a free demonstration of who he is and what he stands for. He is the giver of life and gifts. Nothing God gives us is able to be earned; it is all a free gift for his creation. Salvation is the greatest gift of God for humanity. It gives us the chance to move away from our human greed and failings and give us eternal life... all free of charge.

The Threshing Floor

By Pastor Brad Smith [Brisbane] on the 25/6/2023

The threshing floor in scripture is used as a strong metaphor as a place of separation and revelation. A place where God's harvest is prepared by separating the grain from the useless straw and husk (natural body and its failings)... by threshing (pressure) and the wind (the spirit of truth). The concept of threshing and separation are used to describe God's dealings with men and their future blessings.
