Luke 19: 28 – 40. HEBA Palm Sunday celebration with Rev. David Gregory.
Matthew 16:13-28. “Why?”. That has to be one of the easiest questions to ask, but one of the hardest to answer! And especially so with apologetics. So many questions are raised as we tread tentatively towards the word “Suffering”. For example, “If there is a God, why does He allow suffering?”; “Where is your God […]
Matthew 26: 17 – 30, 69 – 75. Due to weather conditions there were a number of people unable to get to church, so we had a time of testimony regarding God’s faithfulness; and then around the Communion Table we were reminded of how we, like Jesus’ disciples, can be reluctant followers of Christ.
Luke 4:14-30; 20:1-26, 22:16-25. We know that Jesus was despised and rejected. That includes examples of personal denial and rejection (e.g.: Peter, Judas), as well on the larger stage of society in general. Why did the dominant culture of the first century reject Jesus? Is their example enough to convince the dominant culture of our […]
Matthew 16:13-20; Mark 8:27-30; Luke 9:18-27; John 14:1-14 We’ll be pausing here to take stock, but also to ask more questions: “So what?”. What difference does apologetics make to my understanding of Jesus? How does that enable (or otherwise!) me to know that “It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what […]
Matt Roper will be with us to give a personal update on Meninadança from his own work in Brazil, as well as sharing news of the organisation and projects more generally. Stories shared will help us to learn more about how Meninadança is able to help the girls it supports to know that “It’s in […]
John, 5:1-15; 6:1-15; 6:16-25; 20:30 The Bible passages selected here are just by way of a few examples. Many others can be looked at, and as John asserts, “Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book”. But these are written that you may believe […]
Matt. 9:9-13; Mark. 8:22-30; Luke. 1:1-4; John. 1:1-9 “Sceptical scholars often compare the way the Bible’s accounts of Jesus were passed on, with the children’s telephone game, where children whisper a complicated message from one to another. In the process the message is corrupted, and at the end everyone has a good laugh. But how […]
Phil. 2:5-11; Col. 1:15-23. Perhaps most of us rarely question the divinity and uniqueness of Jesus, but instead simply believe that He is because that’s what we’ve been told in church. What if He wasn’t? Would Christianity have enough to base its claims on to survive? Alistair McGrath asks “Is the idea that Jesus is […]
Luke 4:14-30; John 8:48-59. Who is Jesus? Who did he claim to be? What questions might we need to ask? What kind of evidence is there? Questions like this give us a good starting point for apologetics. Not only do we need to understand the kinds of questions about Jesus that people will ask, we […]
