The Bible speaks about wages - wages that each one of us earns. However, these wages are not the kind we look forward to. Death - the consequence of our sin and disobedience towards God. But it also speaks of a wonderful gift offered through Jesus Christ our Lord. Will you be content to take the wages of sin? Or will you look to the Christ of Calvary and receive the gift of eternal life that He alone can give?
One of the beautiful pictures in the Bible is that of the Lord Jesus Christ as our great High Priest. Priests represent people before God – they stand in the place of the people. Did you know that Christ does that? Because He is sinless, He can come before God and plead for us. He does not need a sacrifice for His own sins. He had none. Instead, He has become a great sacrifice himself. He presented himself to God in our place and b...
One of the simplest explanations of the gospel is found in Romans 6 and verse 23: "The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Basically, that is all you need to know of the gospel message to pass from spiritual death to spiritual life. As the old adage goes: "Life is short; death is sure. Sin the cause; Christ the cure." So what is the gift of God? Well, the ve...
There are many calls that we hear from God’s word. Have you ever heard them? In today’s broadcast, the first call we hear is from the prodigal son – a famine and voice from the earth, Luke 15. And then, at a great banquet in Luke 14 - a feast and a voice from heaven. And lastly, from the lost sinner – a flame and a voice from hell - the words of the Lord Jesus Christ from Luke 16. And what about God’s wonderful invitation to you? H...
Solomon, the son of the well-known and beloved King David, was determined to find out what life was all about. He was known as the wisest man who ever lived. On top of all that, he grew up in the lap of luxury in a palace with servants at his beck and call. But Solomon wanted more - so he pursued all the businesses and pleasures his heart could imagine. At the end of it all, he lamented "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity"...
Anyone who reads the Bible is familiar with the Apostle Paul - the fanatical Pharisee who hunted and persecuted Christians before he came into personal contact with the Lord Jesus Christ himself. After this, Paul spent the rest of his days seeking to persuade the Jews and others to understand and believe what he had come to know about Christ and God's salvation. This week’s message looks at a passage in the book of Acts where ...
The Christian faith is very clear on this one important fact - that there is salvation in nothing or no one else but the Lord Jesus Christ. Acts 4:12 states: "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Man's universal problem is sin - and sin must be put away if we are to be on the right terms with a holy God. As sinners, we cannot do...
Many still believe that God is against them and it’s easy for them to grumble and complain about their circumstances even when God had been good to them over and over again. This is exactly what the children of Israel did on their journey to the promised land so many years ago. For this ingratitude, God had venomous snakes invade the camp and many people were bitten; many died. But when they cried out for mercy, the Lord presented ...
True Christianity is a whole lot more than adherence to a set of scriptural doctrines about God and how we should live our lives. Christianity revolves around a person - the Lord Jesus Christ - and our relationship with God through Him. Many people like to think of themselves as Christians because they believe ABOUT Christ - that He came to earth from heaven to save us from our sin. But the real question we should be asking oursel...
We are faced with many mundane decisions on a daily basis. Most are not that important, but there is a choice that will affect us well beyond on lives here - that will affect us for eternity - the decision to make the welfare of our soul the priority. Yet, most people don't give a moment's thought to where they will be after they die. We hope that today YOU will take the time, here and now, to consider YOUR soul. What way...
The Bible is filled with the theme of the precious blood of Christ. It is pictured in the Old Testament and seen with clarity in the New. Without the shedding of blood there is no remission for sin. It's why Christ came - to pay the price for sin on our behalf. Have you accepted the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus, His death upon the cross as payment for YOUR sin? That is what it means to be a Christian. Trust Him today.
Salvation is only open to those who come "as a sinner" to Jesus. In our world today, there is so much emphasis on 'living and let live' as it were. No one wants to be corrected or questioned in any way. Well, the Bible makes it clear that we all belong under the classification of 'sinners', whether we like the term or not. That makes us all condemned. God longs to embrace the sinner in love and forgive...
The Lord Jesus Christ in His attempt to reach sinners of all intellects and educational levels, gave illustrations that were simple enough for even children to understand. One example is when He refers to Himself as a “door” – an entrance way, if you will – into heaven. But please notice that he goes further than to call himself a door – he calls Himself THE door. Yes, Christ says that the demands of a holy and offended God will ac...
The Old Testament prophetically speaks about the Messiah who would come to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. The one whom God would send to take care of our greatest problem – the problem of sin – and whom God would later glorify and set on the highest throne of heaven in greatest exaltation over His enemies. Of course, this speaks of Christ – yes, the meek and lowly Jesus. He’s coming back again!
Well, if you have ever read the book of Genesis, you will know that you are not too many pages into the book before you witness the first murder ever committed in this world. What a sad commentary on the effects of sin in the lives of human beings! Today's message examines the story of Cain and Abel in some detail and finds that it actually reveals to us the origin of the world's first religion - the way of Cain.
The term “born again” is well-known in our society today. It has unfortunately taken on a number of definitions and meanings, most of which have nothing to do with what the scriptures say. It was the Lord Jesus himself who gave the command. So, what does Jesus say about this scriptural imperative?
Do you know what makes Christianity different from every other belief system in the world? Well, there are many things, really. But there is one major difference – grace! Yes, the concept of God’s unmerited favour towards the undeserving is something that is wonderfully unique to the Christian message – the gospel of the grace of God! Tune in as Mr. Derksen takes up this wonderful truth from the Word of God!
The Bible claims that people are actually slaves – slaves to ourselves - to our own selfish desires - slaves to sin. The Bible says that this is a bondage that we cannot escape through our own efforts. But there is a Saviour that God has provided. Christ came to save you from your sins and to give you freedom indeed. Have you been freed from YOUR shackles of sin? Have you ever had a time in your life when you came to Christ to be s...
What is your world view? How do you interpret and make sense of how the world operates? How do you look at life and circumstances that come your way? We all have one – a perspective about the world – a world view. But what is the world view of the Bible believing Christian? How does a vital connection with the God of heaven influence our assessment of and interaction with the world around us?
Here's one question that you weren't likely asked today - Are your sins forgiven? Yes, your sins. Are they forgiven? On today's broadcast, we will be considering what the Bible has to say about forgiveness - WHY is it necessary? HOW can I get it? Important questions that we would like you to face honestly today. The Lord Jesus said that He has power "on earth" to forgiven sins. That means here and now - bef...
