This sermon examines: repentance; religion; morals; social change; media; and personal lifestyles - all in relation to this crucial decade. (12.0 Mb)

A Soft Answer
given Wales UK 31 May 2008
Satan is described at the end time as "having great wrath" (Rev 12:12). As he is also described as "the Prince of the power of the air" (Eph 2:2), it is important that we learn how to deal with wrath in others - influenced by him - by giving a "soft answer" (Prov 15:1) (3.0 Mb)

News Analysis
by Jon Bowles

given Wales UK 17 May 2008
The recent cyclone in Burma gives us a unique view of something Christ warned all of us about: How "leaders" in this world masquerade as "benefactors" (Luke 22:25). It is important that we recognise this - so we can more fully learn the correct Way that Jesus Christ both taught and followed. (0.0 Mb)

Why Christ Used Parables
broadcast 6 June 1979 - played Wales UK 10 May 2008
"My friends, why is it that Jesus spoke in parables so that the people could not understand? Now we have always supposed, of course, most people have, that the reason that Jesus Christ spoke in parables was to make the meaning more clear - sort of illustrated so people would understand better. But we have been seeing that He did exactly the opposite - but why?" (0.0 Mb)

Passover - The Big Picture

What we must do is to concentrate on the big picture. This sermon tries to guide us to do that by looking at: God's Plan; God's House; Footwashing; Sin; and Unleavened Bread. (12.0 Mb)

“Just what is an APOSTLE?”
Just what is an Apostle?

Today we find the Church of God in a “wilderness of religious confusion!”

The confusion is not merely around the Church – within the religions of the world outside – but WITHIN the very heart of The True Church itself!
