  • The Hope of Israel
    Nov 2 2025
    This final message in the book of Acts centers on the hope of Israel as the resurrection-based expectation of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ, the fulfillment of Old Testament promises. Drawing from Paul's ministry in Rome, it emphasizes that the Holy Spirit's work is essential for true understanding, repentance, and salvation—transforming dead hearts into living ones. The message underscores that genuine faith involves not just intellectual assent but a divine renewal by the Spirit, resulting in a sure and certain hope grounded in God's unchanging promise. This hope, shared by all true believers across time, is not a faint wish but a confident assurance of eternal life, resurrection, and the ultimate glory of God's redemptive plan, which culminates in a sinless, everlasting existence. The sermon concludes with a call to pray for increased faith, so that believers may walk in the same certainty about their eternal future as they do about present realities.

  • A Question of Justice
    Oct 26 2025
    The sermon explores the contrast between worldly notions of justice—rooted in superstition, self-justification, and a desire to see others punished—and the perfect, redemptive justice of God revealed in Christ. It highlights how the Maltese people, witnessing Paul survive a snakebite, wrongly assumed divine retribution was at work, reflecting a common human tendency to equate suffering with guilt. In contrast, the sermon affirms that God's justice is not arbitrary or vengeful but is fulfilled in Christ's atonement, where believers' sins are fully paid for, rendering them immune to further punishment. True justice, the sermon argues, is not about retribution but about restoration, as God uses trials for the believer's growth and ultimately vindicates His people. The ultimate display of justice will be seen at the final judgment, when Satan and the unrepentant are eternally punished, while the redeemed stand unharmed, marveling at God's wisdom in maintaining justice while extending mercy through Christ.
