2/14/1982— Exodus 3 One of the most dramatic confrontations in all of Scripture took place when God called Moses to lead the children of Israel out of Egypt, out of bondage. Despite the urgency of the situation, you will recall that Moses offered excuses to God. He protested that he was not the man for the job.  He exclaimed ‘who am I that I should go unto Pharaoh and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?’ ... Read more

8/10/1969 Psalm 8.4– ‘What is a human being that thou art mindful of him?’ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  He didn’t use the words heaven and earth in the plural sense but in the singular.  Nevertheless, human beings are determined to find life on the other creations of God.  God made all things and all creatures, and the last of his handiwork was man and woman, and after he had made them he said it... Read more

7/20/1975. ‘The Relevance of the Gospel!’ We venture into the conflict in our lives everyday not in fear but in faith that Christ and his Word will be vindicated as we pursue the light he gives to us. We are always sensitive to  that which is around us and we are really concerned with our brothers and sisters. We are not building walls around us to insulate ourselves so we won’t know what is happening, but we remain responsive, involved... Read more

11/9/1975– God’s Plan Fulfilled The Son of God was present at the meeting of the Trinity when that voice broke the silence of eternity announcing that human beings would be made in the image of God.  He was there when God breathed in through the nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.  God made human beings, so he knows them.  But has this modern world some new insight, something that outstripped even Jesus in wisdom about... Read more

5/16/1971 Jeremiah 18.4–‘And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter. So he made it again, another vessel as seemed good to the potter to make it.’ Before Jeremiah received instruction from God to visit the potter, because of his ministry in Judah, and because of the heavy burden he felt, he went around tearing down things, destroying and overthrowing what he came in contact with. God had given him charge over the... Read more

9/6/1970 John 18.25. ‘And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, are you not also one of his disciples?  He denied it, saying ‘I am not’. The Lord was on trial for his life. He was standing before the Jewish authorities, and then later the Roman governor who asked him about truth, with a sneer.

8/5/1979 In today’s world things are changing so fast that our understanding of religious truths or ideas must be constantly revised to keep pace with changing times and conditions. Just as there existed, traditionally, the seven deadly sins, so there are seven modern versions of these ancient errors.  Today, the first deadly sin is ignorance. Ignorance is a sin because it blocks the free flow of the creative goodness of God. We need to know how evolution works, we need... Read more

5/19/1968— Psalm 119.11— ‘Thy Word have I hid in my heart’ The Psalmist has discovered the secret of the victorious life.
