The Compulsion of Love

In the English language, we can say “I love ice cream,” and “I love my family.” But obviously the word love doesn’t mean the same thing in both situations. What does love mean? In today’s message, Dr. John unpacks and adjusts our concept of what Biblical love is – especially as it relates to our motive for missions.

Of Those Who Have Never Heard

“What of those who have never heard?” It is a common question when discussing missions. In today’s message, Dr. John addresses the question by outlining what Paul believed in Romans. We will find that the question is not a cause for debate but a motive for evangelism. We will also note that God has infinite mercy through Jesus Christ.

The Missionary Enterprise

Christians should not be surprised about where they live. We live in a world that is broken, fallen and dark. Christians should not be confused about our mission. We are not to simply survive but to storm the gates of hell in the Name of Jesus. In this message, Dr. John traces the missionary enterprise of the early church. They were not deceived nor defeated by the world. They knew Jesus is both true and victorious.

What Is the Gospel?

There are certain words that are jammed with a lot of meaning. The word “gospel” is like that. It carries the content of almost everything we are and do in Christianity. But as Dr. John makes clear in this message, there is a single simplicity about the gospel. There is a fundamental truth about why Jesus died. This is the gospel. Everything else is additive. Gospel people believe this truth and live it daily.

One New Man

We hear much these days that we live in a polarized world. Identities shaped by culture, race, preference or gender become defining barriers. We see it daily, but it is not new. In this message Dr. John speaks from Ephesians that God is uniting all of us together in one new identity. We are one in Christ! What ever we are by gender, race, age or status, is no wall between us. Jesus is our Peace.

From Jerusalem to the World

Sometimes we play, “What if?” What if Winston Churchill wasn’t England’s Prime Minister in WW2? What if there was no COVID-19 pandemic? Obviously we recognize that God is in control, but we wonder what might have been. In today’s sermon Dr. John asks, “What if the Jerusalem Council turned out differently?” What would the spread of Christianity look like, if Gentiles were made to live like Jews? God by His grace and the Council by its wisdom, chose a different path – one that would open the world to the message of Jesus Christ to the glory of God.

The Creator’s Plan

We assume that human need is the centre for missionary activity. Since our need is so great and obvious, it must be the motive for missions. In today’s message, Dr. John points to a different motive – a higher one. The foundation and motive for missional activity is the glory of God. That doesn’t suggest that the human need is insignificant. It does mean that in whatever missionary enterprise we undertake, God is to be glorified in the message of the cross.

John 3:16

It is the nature of love to give. We do it for each other. We teach it to our children. Dr. John teaches today on the loving nature of God to give to all of us.

Jesus came for us, to be like us, to remain eternally like us that we might be with Him forever.

The World That God Loved

John 3:16

What does John mean when he writes that God loves the world? Does he mean God loves nature and the beauty of sunsets? Is John referring to the whole of humanity? Dr. John helps us understand the way the Apostle uses the word “world.” We will discover that God loves the unlovely, the rebellious, the fallen. He loves in the places and people we find hardest to love.
