If It Can Be Destroyed By The Truth, It Should Be! Pt1
Featuring Brad Smith
Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 10th 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.
Evil Men Waxing
Featuring Neil Creek
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
Featuring Pastor Brad Smith
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
Featuring Pastor Brad Smith
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
Featuring Pastor Brad Smith
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
Featuring Pastor Arthur Marshman
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
Featuring Pastor Brad Smith
Delivered By Pastor Brad Smith on 16th July 2023. Part 1 of 2. 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
Featuring Pastor Brad Smith
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.
