Refinery Life Radio: Recent Episodes
Gary Hoban
Refinery Life Church Gold Coast is an Apostolic and Prophetic ministry that serves as a modern day clarion with the intent to usher in transformation, kingdom order, and biblical alignment as well as leadership architecture in cities and nations through the church of Jesus Christ.
The Pulse of the Refinery is to reach nations with a global mandate of Apostolic resourcing of leaders in ministry, to impact cities and nations with a Christ Centric biblical model without conformity, compromise and secular humanism.
Welcome to The Refinery.
The Church The Body of Christ is the theme for the next few Sunday’s.
These messages are primarily based around Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.
Today we are discussing, The Goal of the Church.
Ephesians 4:7-16 NKJV
Spiritual Gifts
7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.
8 Therefore He says:
“When He ascended on high,
He led captivity captive,
And gave gifts to men.”
9 (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also [a]first descended into the lower parts of the earth?
10 He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)
11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the [b]edifying of the body of Christ,
13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—
16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
The total impression of this passage from Ephesians 4 is that Christ has a goal, a supreme standard for His church, and that goal is so high, so exalted that it taxes the imagination to comprehend it.
Nonetheless, here and now, in the body of this flesh, we are to strive to attain it.
Specifically, this passage leaves three impressions on the mind and the heart.
First, Christ has given us the grace whereby we may reach the goal.
Second, the means of growth for reaching that goal are at hand.
And third, we must not stop nor be satisfied short of the goal, no matter how high the standard nor how great the difficulties in the way.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at The Refinery.
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us at www.refinerylife.org

Welcome to The Refinery.
The Church The Body of Christ is the theme for the next few Sunday’s.
These messages are primarily based around Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.
Today we are discussing, Walking Worthily as a Church Member.
Walking is often used in the bible as a figure of speech to describe a certain manner or way of life.
This is true of the seven occurrences in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians where he contrasts the walk of the believer with that of the unbeliever.
In chapters 1-3 of Ephesians, Paul described the height and depth, the glory and wonder of the Christian calling.
Being a Christian is a glorious privilege.
In chapters 4-6 he urged Christians to walk worthily of such a privilege.
Paul was urgent, “I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called,”
Paul was saying, “You are representatives of Christ in this world. Let your manner of life be such that it will not be a reproach to your Master.”
Three things about this worthy walk, all hinging on our text, are suggested in Ephesians.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Church The Body of Christ is the theme for the next few Sunday’s.
These messages are primarily based around Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.
Today we are discussing, The Church, The Body of Christ.
Centuries ago the psalmist said in Psalm 139:14, I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
The human body is an awesome example of unity in diversity.
Dozens of organs perform different functions yet work in such harmony that we must make a deliberate effort to think of the human body in a way except as unity.
In the church at Corinth, some had gifts the others did not have, and as a result, they thought of themselves more highly than they should have.
This provoked the less gifted to jealousy.
The result was discord and strife among the members.
In substance Paul was saying to them, “You do not realise your relationship to one another and to Christ. You are joined to one another and dependant on one another.
You are the physical expression and instrument of Christ in this world just as the body is the physical expression and instrument of the mind.”
1 Corinthians 12:27, Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
Several practical suggestions about the church are called out by this text.
Until next time

Welcome to The Refinery.
Today we are discussing, What Apostles Do?
Firstly Apostles are called by God
1 Corinthians 1:1
Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
Apostles are recognised by the church.
Acts 6:3
Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business;
And Apostles are sent out by the church.
Acts 13:3
Then, having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent them away.
Acts 15:22
Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas who was also named Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren.
Apostles are a servant ministry to the local church and are given an office by the Lord and an anointing to fulfil the role.
If an ‘apostle’ comes without these credentials and attitude of service, reject them.
Test the spirit and fruit of the apostle, there is safety in the body to discern if they sent by the Lord (church) or came by themselves.
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at The Refinery.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Master’s recipe for Effective Praying has been the theme for the last few Sunday’s and is a study of the petitions found in the Lord’s prayer.
Today we are discussing, Deliver Us from Evil.
Seven is the number for completeness in the Bible.
It is of special interest that the Master of prayer gave us just seven petitions in the Model Prayer,
This could indicate that he felt that the seven petitions covered every need that people might bring to God.
“Deliver us from evil” is the last of the petitions.
It voices a cry that comes from the heart of the children of God as they live on this world.
It is a cry expressing great urgency.
Surely it is appropriate as we assemble for worship in the midst of a troubled world.
Consider with me today some important implications set forth by this simple petition.
And let us recognise the urgent need for us to be taking this petition to our heavenly Father daily.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Master’s recipe for Effective Praying is the theme for the next few Sunday’s and is a study of the petitions found in the Lord’s prayer.
Today we are discussing, Lead Us Not Into Temptation.
The battle with temptation is a continuing battle in all of life and is what prompted our petition for today “Lead us not into temptation.”
Doubtlessly, the Teacher intended for each of these petitions to be repeated daily.
Even one day of relaxation during the battle with temptation can be spiritually fatal.
While Jesus did not experience the need voiced in the second of the petitions, “forgive us,” He did experience this one.
That is, since He never said come to any temptation, He never had to request forgiveness.
You may question whether Jesus really knew the power of temptation.
The truth is that only the person who ever knows the full power of temptation is the person who resists it.
Jesus knew more about the power of temptation than any of us.
This petition lends it self to deeper meditation.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Master’s recipe for Effective Praying is the theme for the next few Sunday's and is a study of the petitions found in the Lord’s prayer.
Today we are discussing, Forgive Us Our Debts.
Jesus instructs us to make all our needs a matter of prayer.
The needs of our body are to be a matter of prayer, which is why we pray, “Give is this day our daily bread.”
But we are also to pray about the needs of our mind.
A part of the human soul is the conscience.
God placed within us a little voice that protests when we violate our sense of right and wrong.
What do you do when you feel guilty?
You should pray.
You should not carry guilt through even one day.
You should pray, “Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.”
The Lord’s Prayer is a prayer for disciples.
Some mistakingly teach that once you become a Christian, you never need to confess or seek forgiveness again.
But Jesus taught His disciples to pray this prayer daily.

Welcome to The Refinery.The Master’s recipe for Effective Praying is the theme for the next few Sunday's and is a study of the petitions found in the Lord’s prayer.Today we are discussing, Our Daily Bread.Prayer begins with God ward concerns, but it does not end there.The first three petitions of the Lord's Prayer make petitions for the name, Kingdom, and the will of God.These must be the first concerns in our prayer life.But then Jesus gave us four petitions to cover our personal needs. The last four petitions are inclusive.Give us this day our daily bread touches on the needs of the body.Forgive us our debts includes the needs of the soul.Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil speak to the spiritual needs of the person.This reminds us that we can take whatever concerns us to the Heavenly Father in prayer.Give us our daily bread would seem to be a simple statement of need, yet many different interpretations of been set forth.Some have drawn back from thinking of it as a simple request for daily bread.They've changed it to mean Spiritual Bread from the Word of God or Christ, the Bread of Life, and some have even referred to it as the Bread of the Lord's Table. There is no need for such spiritualisation of the request.Our God is just as concerned that the basic necessities of life be supplied as He is that we have spiritual bread for the spirit.Our God is concerned about the total person.What can we learn here?

Welcome to The Refinery.The theme for the coming Sunday mornings is The Master’s Recipe for effective Praying.Today we are talking about Thy Will Be Done.“It is God’s will.”These words are often used to interpret the tragedies of life.In legal language, “an act of God” is used to explain the great catastrophes that bring so much suffering and ruin.Yet Jesus instructed us to pray, “Thy will be done.”Does that mean that we are praying for catastrophes and tragedies to fall upon us?Such tragic events are not what we find associated with God’s will in the Bible.God wills to create a world, to create humans, to send His Son, to redeem humans.These things are an expression of God’s eternal purpose and will be accomplished, so there is really no need for us to pray for the accomplishment of them.But God’s will also includes His commands and His plan for our day to day lives.Thus we need to pray that His will might be done in our lives and in the lives of others.The concern of this particular petition is how we are to do God’s will.Since His will is to be done “on earth as it is in heaven,” we are to look to heaven for our pattern of response.Even though we do not know as much about heaven as we would like to know, we do know enough to give us some helpful instructions at this point.Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming Sunday mornings is The Master’s Recipe for effective Praying.
Today we are talking about, Thy Kingdom Come.
The gospel of Matthew presents Jesus is the King of the Jews.
It is truly the Gospel of the kingdom.
Jesus’ whole Sermon on the Mount is to be seen in this relationship.
In the midst of this sermon, our Lord gave his disciples a model prayer, the second petition of which is “Thy kingdom come.”
“Thy” calls our attention to the nature of the kingdom, it is the kingdom that belongs to and comes from God.
It is to the heavenly father that we pray, “Thy kingdom come.”
The kingdom of God is the dynamic reign of God is king.
Jesus spoke of the kingdom of God existing in both the present and the future.
He affirmed to his disciples, the kingdom of God is within or among you.
Whether do you understand the preposition “within" to mean that the Kingdom is present in their hearts or present in the midst in the person of the King of heaven makes little difference.
Jesus surely taught that the kingdom of God come to earth in His ministry.
He pointed his critics to his miracles as a sign that the kingdom of God was near at hand.
But Jesus also spoke of the kingdom of God is something in the future, as the coming kingdom.
To which aspect of the kingdom then does this prayer relate?
Surely it must include both aspects.
Let us see how it might relate to our prayers.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming Sunday mornings is The Master’s Recipe for effective Praying.
Today we are talking about, Hallowed Be Thy Name.
The Lord's prayer is a useful guide for disciples to follow in their prayer life.
It gives us some priorities by which to establish our prayer life.
Most of us have quoted this presence childhood, but we may not have fully looked carefully at what it really says.
What should be the primary burden of your prayer when you approach the heavenly Father?
In this prayer, Jesus set forth seven petitions.
The first three are concerned with the things of God.
The last four concerned with the things of man.
This reflects God's priorities that should be observed in prayer.
The first petition is hallowed be thy name.
The biblical use of name is a little strange to modern minds.
In understanding the Bible, you cannot separate the name from the person.
Name is character so far is it revealed.
To hallow something means to count it as Holy.
Literally, it means “to make holy.”
Since it is related to God in this text, we know that it carries the force here of regarding or acknowledging something that is holy.
There is no way that the name of God can be made holy, for He is the eternal Holy One.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming Sunday mornings is The Master’s Recipe for effective Praying.
Today we are talking about Our Father.
If we are to come boldly to the throne of grace to receive help in our time of need, we must know who sits on the throne.
We must know who God is, and we must know what kind of person He is.
We can learn a lot by considering our Lord’s most basic instruction on prayer.
What we have commonly called the Lord’s Prayer contains some of the most profound thoughts on prayer found in all the Bible.
Every word of this model prayer is important.
The prayer was given again in Luke’s gospel in response to a specific request from the disciples concerning prayer.
They felt their in adequacy in prayer and wanted Jesus’s aid.
He responded by giving this beautiful pattern to follow.
How are we to understand prayer?
It was not given to just as a prayer to God, even though it is useful for this.
All of us have experienced some beautiful moments with God as we are out of these words to him.
This prayer is meant to be an outline for prayer.
It is to guide us in our prayers as an outline guides the speaker in his delivery.
The prayer presents two major concerns that we must present to the Father.
The first three petitions are concerned with the glory of God, His name, His kingdom, and His will.
Blast for our concerned with our needs. This should always be the order of our concern when we come to present ourselves to the Father in prayer.
First, we will gather from the light it gives about the God to him we pray.
He is to be addressed, according to our Lord Jesus, as “Our Father which art in heaven.”
Until next time

Welcome to The Refinery.
The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the next few Sunday mornings.
This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
The Beatitudes vividly set forth the inward spiritual characteristics of those who are ideal citizens of the kingdom of God.
Only when we are right in our inward attitudes can we be right in our outward conduct.
Today we are discussing, The Forgotten Beatitude.
We have probably all heard a sermon on the Beatitudes, in fact I generally preach a series on the Beatitudes each year.
Did you know there is a Beatitude that Paul preserved for us for later?
Ask almost any Christian, even the most careful Bible student, to name the beatitudes of Jesus, and they will name those listed in Matthew 5. Not one in a hundred would name the one given in Acts 20.
Thus it is fair to call Acts 20:35 the forgotten Beatitude.
Acts 20:35 I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
There is no question as to the authenticity of this beatitude.
That this is a genuine saying of Jesus there is no doubt.
Beyond doubt, this was a current saying of Jesus with which the Ephesian elders were familiar.
Moreover, the writer, Luke, who heard Paul’s address to these pastors and preserved it. Also wrote the gospel that bears his name, and his gospel preserves, in slightly varied form, Jesus’ beatitudes.
There can be no doubt that Jesus demonstrated this beatitude in His life and ministry and death.
Just as surely as He demonstrated meekness, mercy, and purity of heart, so did Jesus demonstrate that “it is more blessed to give than to receive.”
There can be no fault found with the form in which this beatitude is given.
Paul faces his statement of the beatitude with a twofold caution, “Labouring,” he said, “you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
His caution “to remember” is certainly in place for us, for this is the forgotten beatitude.
The Beatitudes describe the character traits of a happy Christian, and this one, so often forgotten, is the most joyous of them all.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the next few Sunday mornings.
This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
The Beatitudes vividly set forth the inward spiritual characteristics of those who are ideal citizens of the kingdom of God.
Only when we are right in our inward attitudes can we be right in our outward conduct.
Today we are discussing, The Children of God.
No work is more in imitation of God’s work than that of making peace, for is a “God of peace.”
No one is more clearly demonstrated to be a child of God than the peacemaker, the person who by his or her own character, example, and testimony is a reconciling influence in the world.
“Blessed are the peacemakers.”
How strange these words sound in our world today.
For two thousand years people have been honouring these words of Jesus with their lips while their hearts have been far from Him.
By our lives, our actions, and our words, we have said, “Blessed are the sowers of discord, the fomenters of strife.”
But, to paraphrase, Jesus said, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they are, they shall be called, they are acting like the children of God.”
All of those described in Jesus’ beatitudes are the children of God, for Jesus is describing seven facets of one character.
Yet nothing demonstrates more clearly the character of Christ and the nature of God than the effort to make peace.
Three observations will set forth the truth of this seventh beatitude.
Until next time

This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
The Beatitudes vividly set forth the inward spiritual characteristics of those who are ideal citizens of the kingdom of God.
Only when we are right in our inward attitudes can we be right in our outward conduct.
Today we are discussing, The Hill of the Lord.
Psalm 24 is often given the title “The Hill of the Lord,” because the verses containing this expression form its heart.
The question “Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?” Is equivalent to asking, “What is true religion?”
The psalmist answers, “He that has clean hands, and a pure heart.”
True religion is more than a matter of having clean hands, it is first of all a matter of a pure heart.
True religion is not a matter of deeds or observances or worship at all, except as these outward appearances, which are seen, are a sincere expression of a pure heart within.
If the heart is pure in the sense Jesus wants it to be pure, the rest will take care of itself.
Mixing our two Scripture passages, we might paraphrase our beatitude this way, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall ascend the hill of the Lord, and stand in His holy place, they shall receive the blessing fresh from the Lord Himself.”
How complimentary this beatitude is to humankind, “for they shall see God.”
Created as humans are, in the image of God, they have the faculty of spiritual sight.
They can see God.
How beautifully this beatitude expresses the deepest longing of the human heart, “for they shall see God.”
The desire to see God, to look upon His face, is a longing as old as man yet as contemporary as physical hunger,
Throughout the ages, humans have cried out with Job, Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, That I might come to His seat!
And the better a person comes to know God, the deeper this yearning becomes.
How truly this beatitude tells us our deepest need, “for they shall see God.”
The sixth beatitude brings us face to face with the nature and the demands of true religion, which is first of all a matter of the heart.
Until next time

Only when we are right in our inward attitudes can we be right in our outward conduct.Today we are discussing, As I Had Mercy on You.The parable of the unmerciful servant illustrates in reverse the truth of the beatitude “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.”To the debtor to whom the king would have forgiven all of his enormous debt, had he in turn been willing to forgive his fellow servant a small sum, the king said, Matthew 18:32-33, Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?’“Even as I had pity, or mercy, on you” this is the moral of this parable, and in substance it may be paraphrased like this, “Woe to the unmerciful, for they shall not receive the mercy of God.”This is exactly the opposite of tonight’s beatitude.This is a law of the moral realm that never fails and for which there is no appeal.It is an absolute in the kingdom of God.If God’s mercy is not awakened in our hearts some sense of mercy toward our fellow humans, we should not deceive ourselves by thinking we have received God’s mercy, for we haven’t.“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.”Three things about this beatitude demand our attention.Each one can be stated in one word.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at The Refinery and when it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the next few Sunday mornings.This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.Today we are discussing, Delighting The Soul in Fatness.It is a great blessing to desire earnestly and to receive the things of the Spirit that God will give to those who ask.Three things stand out about this beatitude.The universality of the figure in which the beatitude is conveyed.Hunger and thirst are elemental instinct known to all people, so Jesus’ words spike a responsive chord in every heart.Taken together, hunger and thirst form a universal figure for an intense desire that is perpetual.The word translated “filled” is from a word that means to “fatten”, as to fatten cattle on fodder, grain, or grass.Hence, Jesus’ meaning is “Blessed are those who desire, intensely and perpetually, what God has to give, for their souls shall be made fat on God’s fodder.”Long ago the prophet Isaiah quoted God as saying, in Isaiah 55:2, Why do you spend money for what is not bread,And your wages for what does not satisfy?Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,And let your soul delight itself in abundance.The definiteness of the terms to which the beatitude is confined.Jesus speaks about those who are hungering and thirsting after righteousness.Upon no other desire does the blessing fall.Again the prophet said, in Isaiah 55:2, Why do you spend money for what is not bread,And your wages for what does not satisfy?Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,And let your soul delight itself in abundance.There is a bread that is not the Bread of Life and drink that does not satisfy.Like a coin that has been in circulation for too long, the word righteousness has lost weight and value through years of misuse that it is almost too light and thin to convey Jesus’ meaning.As Jesus used it, righteousness means a right standing before God, a right relationship with God through Christ.Blessed are those who long to be right with God, for upon the atoning merits of Christ they shall be.But to a Christian, righteousness should also mean what it meant to Christ, to do the will of the Father.We are filled then the righteousness of Christ is imputed to us and when His Holy Spirit works the works of God through our lives.The quality of the condition that is called blessed.This beatitude describes a blessed process by which the soul grows to be like God.We hunger and thirst.We eat and drink and are satisfied, but in a matter of hours hunger and thirst return, and we repeat the process.Blessed is the process of hungering and thirsting after righteousness and of being filled, for by this process we grow and develop as Christians.Blessed is the one whose appetite for spiritual food and drink is growing, for they will be filled again and again.Let’s consider three questions today about this beatitude.Until next timeStay in the Blessings2024 IS A YEAR OF DECISIONS AND OPEN DOORS© www.refinerylife.org 2013-2024 All rights reserved.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the next few Sunday mornings.
This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
Today we are discussing, Rest Unto Your Souls.
As Australians, our heritage has hardly prepared us for this beatitude.
Our heritage is one that encourages contempt for what we understand as “the meek” and admiration of the self assertive.
One the one hand, we have inherited, through the times, the Roman ideal of greatness in which meekness has no place.
On the other hand, we are the heirs of Anglo Saxon self assertiveness and insistence on personal rights and privileges.
Under these influences, we have come to admire power, domination, and personal success.
Matthew 5:5 NKJV Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
On hearing this the average Australian will say, “To tell you the truth, I just don’t admire that.
Doesn’t that mean a weak and spineless creature, a namely pamby, flabby in character and lacking self respect?”
Labouring under this false impression of what meekness is, they ask, “Who wants to be meek? More than that, the statement “They shall inherit the earth” is ridiculous. Maybe some of them will go to heaven someday, but “inherit the earth?” Forget it! I don’t believe it!”
This beatitude meets with a poor reception by most people.
Perhaps none in the list is as unpopular as this.
To the popular mind this beatitude is undesirable and unbelievable.
But popularity is no reliable test of anything and certainly not of things that pertain to Christ and His kingdom.
The popular conception of Christian meekness is both erroneous and inadequate, and these ideas are therefore false.
This is not a popular beatitude, because in the world’s failure to understand what true meekness is, it neither admires nor desires it.
But there are some other more reliable tests to apply to this saying of Jesus.
“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”
Jesus was stating a simple fact, and that fact is demonstrated to be true by three important tests.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the coming Sunday morningsThis series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.Today we are discussing, Joy Comes in the Morning.If we have never fully understood all that it means to be a Christian, we have never fully appropriated the full blessedness of the Christian life.Matthew 5:4 NKJV says, Blessed are those who mourn,For they shall be comforted.This is a plain statement of simple truth.Blessed is the man in whose heart the “consolation in Christ” has been, is, and ever shall be effective.Blessed is the Christian, even in sorrow, grief, and pain, because for the Christian, God’s comfort is sure.As a child of God, the psalmist of our Scripture today, having passed through he fires of grief, pain, and trial, had found the balm of Gilead sufficient for his soul.His experience was this, Psalm 30:11, You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.He believed by faith that “weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”Any English translation must miss the picture of the word here rendered “endure.”The figure is “to come in to lodge as a guest.”The psalmist was saying, “weeping may come in to lodge with us in the evening, but joy comes in as a guest in the morning.”This is not a mere promise to a Christian, it is the unfailing result of being a Christian, its the natural consequence of the Christian life.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at The Refinery and when it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
Today we are discussing, The Poverty That Possesses.
The person who is truly poor in spirit is blessed because such poverty enables that person to possess the supreme possession of all, “the kingdom of heaven.”
For our sakes, Jesus set the example in 2 Corinthians 8:9, For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.
Poverty of spirit is the first character trait Jesus wants in His followers, the subjects of His kingdom.
It is a trait that carries its own reward, “theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
Note the tenses here carefully, “Blessed are the poor in spirit,” not “have been,” or “ shall be,” but “are.”
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Inward Attitudes of a True Disciple is our theme for the next nine Sunday mornings.
This series is based on the Beatitudes, found in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount.
Today we are discussing, Questions about the Beatitudes.
Perhaps no sayings of Jesus are more familiar but less understood by the average Christian than the Beatitudes.
Most congregations could be classified as belonging to on for three groups on the basis of their attitudes toward the Beatitudes.
In one group there are those whose attitude is, Come to think of it, I don’t know what they mean. I’ve never tried to learn, and I don’t care.
Not many of this group come to church.
In a second group there are those whose attitude is, I have thought about the Beatitudes. I have wished I could have these qualities in my life, but this quest is not for me.
These ideals are too high. I cannot attain them.
A large percentage of the average congregation would fall into this group.
In a third group are those whose attitude is, The Beatitudes are idealistic.
Only Jesus ever exhibited them perfectly. Being meek and merciful and pure in heart are qualities we’ll have in heaven, but they aren’t for now.
Not so!
The Beatitudes are for the here and now.
If Jesus had not wanted these qualities to be exhibited in our lives until we get to heaven, He would have waited until then to tell us.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.”Today we are talking about God's Affirmative Action Program: The Revelation.Revelation is a word we use to describe the disclosure of truth.The first chapter of the book of John presents a great revelation, John 1:14, And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.Unlike the other Gospel writers, John did not start his book with scenes of Christs birth.Instead, he started at the very beginning.John 1:1 NKJV1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.As part of His affirmative action program, God became one with us,Through His Son, Jesus, God came into the world to fulfil His plan to bring people back to Himself and provide all humankind with an equal opportunity for reconciliation with Him.In our Scripture reading today, we learn that God chose John the Baptist to act as a witness to this great revelation.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.orgWhen it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.”
Today we are talking about God's Affirmative Action Program: The Reality.
God’s affirmative action plan became reality when Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
At that time the eternal Word took on human flesh and came to dwell among us.
From this point on, John no longer calls Him the Word, but lets us in on the secret and gives us His name, Jesus Christ.
God took affirmative action toward us.
He came into our world through Jesus Christ.
What people had hoped for and looked toward had become a reality.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.”
Today we are talking about God's Affirmative Action Program: The Reason.
Governments like to talk about affirmative action programs.
They can be programs that see that businesses make right some wrongs, balancing some imbalances, correcting some faults, ultimately, to bring reconciliation.
More often than not, these government programs are not so good for the wider population, and really are no more than taking from one group of people to give to another.
A redistribution of wealth wrapped up in a government program.
God also had an affirmative action program designed to bring reconciliation, proper, true reconciliation between God and man.
On these Sundays leading up to Christmas, we will examine God’s affirmative action program as expressed in the beginning of John’s gospel, John 1:1-18.
The first matter to consider is the reason for God’s affirmative action program.
Why did God need one?
Because humans had sinned against their Creator and broken fellowship with Him, God had to make a way for them to come back into right relationship with Him.
He showed His love for humankind by initiating a plan to restore them to a position of right standing.
Just as we say, “I love you,” with words and action, that is how God communicated His love to us.
He sent His Son, the living Word, to earth.
John 1:1 NKJV
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.”
Today we are talking about What Is Your Life?
The book of James is probably the most practical writing of the New Testament.
The author, a half brother of Jesus, stressed conduct and behaviour as the true test of whether someone is a genuine Christian.
Some people have called this book “the Proverbs of the New Testament” while others have pointed out its similarity to the Sermon on the Mount.
Writing to Christians who were scattered throughout the Roman Empire, James emphasised the necessity for patience, especially as related to the tongue, warning that one of the worst sins Christians can commit is that of failing to carefully watch their words.
In this particular section of Scripture, James emphasised the uncertainty of the future, which was certainly a relevant fact in the lives of the Christians who lived in a world that was hostile to the members of the new faith.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is the Holy Spirit, how we recognise Him, and how we should respond to Him.
The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Today we are talking about The Holy Spirit Invites You.
Humankind’s greatest need is to know God through faith in Jesus Christ.
Because our deepest need is spiritual, God sent His Son to die on a cross to show His love for us and to conquer death that He might demonstrate to us the reality of eternal life.
Following this great redemptive activity accomplished by Jesus Christ, God sent His Holy Spirit into the church and into the world to invite all nonbelievers to come to Jesus Christ through faith that they might receive the gift of eternal life and become the children and servants of God.
If you are still a nonbeliever, you may be shocked to learn that the Holy Spirit of God is in the world today inviting you to become a believer in Jesus Christ.
The words of our text declare the purpose of the church and of the Holy Spirit is to invite you to come to Jesus Christ, who is the fountain living waters.
He alone can quench the thirst of your soul.
Our Scripture reading urges us to listen attentively and responsively as the Holy Spirit of God speaker to our innermost being.
Jesus, in the closing days of His ministry, detailed some of the activities on the Holy Spirit who would come on the day of Pentecost.
One of the primary functions of the Holy Spirit was to bear testimony to people’s consciences regarding who Jesus Christ is and what He came to do.
Until next time

The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Today we are talking about Obeying the Command of the Holy Spirit.
Some people believe that they are obeying the Great Commission when they attend Sunday school and worship services.
Some believe they are obeying the Great Commission when they are singing in the worship team, or teaching at a life group.
Some believe they are obeying the Great Commission when they give a tithe of their income plus offerings or when they pray for missionaries.
All of these things are partial responses to the Great Commission of our Lord.
Philip provides us with a dramatic demonstration of how we are to bey the Great Commission on a one to one basis in our personal lives.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is the Holy Spirit, how we recognise Him, and how we should respond to Him.
The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Today we are talking about Using The Gifts of The Holy Spirit.
God is the great giver.
He has given us His Son, Jesus Christ, to be our Saviour, Teacher, Friend, Lord, and Helper.
God has also given us the Holy Spirit to dwell within us to do God’s work.
The Holy Spirit was given the day of Pentecost to accomplish a number of significant purposes.
He came to identify Jesus Christ as the risen, living Lord and Messiah.
He was given to unite the followers of Christ into a living body in which Christ could dwell and continue His work of redemption in the world.
The Holy Spirit was given to identify the church to the Jewish people as the new Israel through whom God would carry forward His eternal redemptive purpose.
Let me make this clear we the church are not a replacement for Israel, but we are to make the Jews so jealous of our God that they convert to Christianity.
He was given to enable and to empower the church to succeed in preaching the gospel to the ends of the earth.
He was given to impart and to plant the confession, “Jesus Christ is Lord’ at the very centre of everyone’s being.
The Holy Spirit was given to produce within each believer the nature and character and personality of Jesus Christ.
While the Holy Spirit is the great gift of God to each believer, the Scriptures teach us that the Holy Spirit imparts spiritual gifts to every member of the church that each one might fulfil the function God has for Him.

Today we are talking about The Holy Spirit, A Living Gift.
Many different options are available to someone who is eager to bestow a gift on someone they love.
Some gifts are inanimate in nature and last a long time.
Others, like flowers, are perishable.
There are also living gifts like puppies, kittens, and plants.
God our Father has seen fit to bestow a living gift of a different nature within the mind and heart of each of His children at the moment of their conversion, the gift of the Holy Spirit, who is the living presence of God himself.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is evangelism, sharing the gospel with a sense of urgency, seeking to persuade the uncommitted and non believers to put their faith in Jesus Christ.
The theme is “Today Is the Day of Salvation.”
Today we are talking about Salvation in the Present.
There are three days on everybody’s calendar, yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Many people miss today because they are living in yesterday.
Others miss the present because they are worried about tomorrow.
Let's look at salvation in the past and future and then concentrate on salvation in the present.
Until next time

Today we are talking about The Joy of Knowing Jesus Christ as Saviour.
As Paul wrote his letter to the Ephesians, he was rejoicing over the blessings of God that had come upon them as a result of their faith in Jesus Christ as saviour.
Ephesians 2 points out some of the relationships that make indescribable joy possible in the heart of each one who receives Jesus Christ as Saviour, Lord, Teacher, and Friend.
There is a great joy for you in knowing Jesus Christ.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is evangelism, sharing the gospel with a sense of urgency, seeking to persuade the uncommitted and non believers to put their faith in Jesus Christ.
The theme is “Today Is the Day of Salvation.”
Today we are talking about Harvest time.
Even though we may not all be farmers, in fact some of us may have never planted anything in our lives, we will all harvest in the future.
The apostle Paul painted a picture of our life as an opportunity to plant in one of two fields.
In the first field we all have an opportunity to do our planting in the realm of our fleshly nature.
And in the second field we all have the opportunity to plant in the realm of our spiritual nature.
Paul pictured life as an opportunity to read the harvest. We will reaper harvest in the area of our fleshly nature if that has been the area in which we have done our planting.
We will reaper harvest in the realm of the spirit if we have been sewing to the Spirit.
It is highly possible that many of us have not interpreted the words of our text as fully as we should have.
The apostle Paul was not speaking primarily to non-believers in this text.
He's warning believers against the peril of living only in the dimension of their fleshly nature.
Many of us may be sowing only in the realm of the flesh and maybe totally neglecting the spirit.
The words of our text should speak loudly both to the unsaved person who sows only in the realm of the flesh and to the saved person who faces the peril of neglecting the Spirit while sowing to the fleshly nature.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our theme for the past few weeks has been “The Seven Deadly Sins.”
These seven sins are inward attitudes that affect character as well as conduct.
Through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be delivered from the seven deadly sins.
Today we are talking about The Deliverer from Sin.
Romans 7 pictures the tragic failure and disappointment of a believer who tries to find peace of heart through human effort to keep the holy law of God.
Paul would declare that he who seeks to overcome the seven deadly sins in willpower and human effort alone will experience the despair of one who finds a fatal flaw within that produces repeated failure.
There are two powers that would claim the right to rule in the heart of man.
Paul described these as “flesh” and “spirit.”
By the term flesh he was referring to our human nature, which is defiled by sin.
It is that portion of ourselves that remains unregenerate and does not experience the new birth.
It is part of our human nature that provides a bridgehead for sin.
It is the inward tendency that we all have to drift downward rather than to move upward.
When Paul spoke of the Spirit, he was speaking of the indwelling Holy Spirit, who comes to live within the believer at the moment of conversion and makes it possible for the child of God to grow in Christlikeness.
Romans 7 describes the pain and disappointment, the failure and despair of one who tries to live a Christian life without a conscious dependence on Christ and the filling of the Holy Spirit.
Yielding to the unregenerate nature described as “flesh” is the road to ruin.
Recognising and responding to “the Spirit” is the road to life and peace.
Romans 8 begins with “no condemnation” and closes with “no separation.”
The contents of Romans 8 declare that there need be no defeat in the Christian life.
However, it should be recognised that Christian victory over the seven deadly sins is not automatic and inevitable.
We must accept responsibility for our spiritual response to the indwelling Spirit.
Romans 8 contains twenty references to the person and work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer.
It is through this living, present power of the Holy Spirit that we are to be delivered from the tyranny of sin.
From Romans 7 into Romans 8 we move from the prostration of defeat to the promise of victory.
We move from spiritual depression to spiritual delight.
We move from a sigh to a song.
The indwelling Holy Spirit makes possible spiritual victory and high ethical conduct that reflects the grace and the glory of God.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

These seven sins are inward attitudes that affect character as well as conduct.
Through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be delivered from the seven deadly sins.
Today we are talking about The Fourth Deadly Sin, Impurity.
The fourth deadly sin was labelled “impurity” by the ancient fathers.
We know it better by the word lust.
It is the category of sin that deals with the immorality of sexual sins.
Lust, premarital and extramarital sex, prostitution, pornography, homosexuality, pedophilia, incest, and rape are all sins that may be classified as impurity.

These seven sins are inward attitudes that affect character as well as conduct.
Through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be delivered from the seven deadly sins.
Today we are talking about The Second Deadly Sin, Anger.
The second deadly sin is a highly dangerous, destructive sin, anger.
Pride is at the head of this infamous list of sins, but following close on the heels of pride comes anger.
Like pride, anger is a sin that inflicts us all.
No one is immune.
From the smallest child to the oldest adult, this sin stalks humankind like a predatory animal looking for an unsuspecting sheep.
Parents are aware of the fierce temper of infants.
Babies cry out until they are red with anger.
Childhood is no better.
Fits of anger lead to bickering and self centred fighting among siblings.
Outward displays in childhood degenerate to sulking and pouting in teenagers.
Anger causes a wife to develop a headache and a husband to slam doors.
Older adults may suffer from ulcers, hypertension, and stress, which may be aggravated by violent outbursts of temper.

Our theme for the next eight weeks is “The Seven Deadly Sins.”
These seven sins are inward attitudes that affect character as well as conduct.
Through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be delivered from the seven deadly sins.
Today we are talking about The First Deadly Sin: Pride.
Now we know that sin is sin, but bear with me.
Pope Gregory the Great, between AD590 and Ad 604 divided all sins under seven headings.
He believed that every sin a person commits can be classified under these seven categories.
These seven words have come to be called “The seven deadly sins.”
They are pride, anger, envy, impurity, gluttony, slothfulness, and greed.
Although these sins are never found listed together in any single passage, they are continually condemned in Scripture.
Today and for the next six Sundays, we will look at each sin separately.
We begin with the sin of pride.
This sin was put at the top of the list because all of the others from from it.
Our Scripture reading for today each make a point about pride.
I have chosen three verses from the book of proverbs, and each verse will make a point today.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.

These seven sins are inward attitudes that affect character as well as conduct.
Through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be delivered from the seven deadly sins.
Today we are talking about Christian Citizenship is The Salt That Saves.
I believe with all that is going on in the world it is a good time to ask ourselves, “Are we being responsible citizens of our country?”
If we really love our country, we should lead it.”
We need to lead our nation to worship God and to be a responsible nation among the nations.
Our Scriptures today emphasise the influence of the ideal followers of Jesus Christ.
The text declares that we must function as salt, and we are to serve as the light of the world.
Christian citizenship is applying the principles and values of the Christian faith in our world through appropriate in evolvement in the political process.
As followers of Christ, we should be more than eager to apply spiritual and moral principles based on our faith in and obedience to God to all of life.
We can take four different stances toward our country and our church.
First, We can be critical but not loyal.
We could specialise in identifying problem areas but fail to generate constructive ideas for solutions.
Second, we can be loyal but not critical.
We could have a line but superficial loyalty to the group of which we are a part.
Third, we can be neither critical or loyal.
Consequently, we would have no real dedication in our hearts.
Fourth, we can be both critical and loyal.
In this case, our commitment is genuine.
Love and respect often demand discipline and rebuke.
We need a renewed faith and obedience to God and service to our country and to its people.
What are some guidelines for responsible Christian citizenship?
- Christians need to mix religion and politics.
We must not eliminate religion from politics.
-
Christians need to understand the real issues that confront us.
-
Christians need to be politically active.
-
Christians need to work with others who are promoting worthy biblically correct causes.
-
Some Christians should be running for political offices.
-
All Christians need to vote intelligently.
-
Christians must have a higher loyalty.
Loyalty to God takes precedence over all other loyalties.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today church we are at a crossroad, we have a choice to move forward with the Lord or stay where we are and go backwards.
There is a forerunner group of believers forming to walk in the age to come and my calling is to build them up and guide them.
We can be part of that or not, if the answer is to be fed and not do anything, that is OK, but you won’t receive the full blessing that the Lord has for you.
We need to cooperate with the Father God, who would prune out those branches, attitudes, ambitions, and actions that are counter productive, so that the church might bear much fruit.
Today we are talking about What Do You Believe.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This month we are working our way through a series titled “The Christian Family, Living for Christ in the Present.”
Marriage and the family are under great stress today.
The church has a vital stake in the husband / wife relationships and the parent / child relationships of those who call themselves believers.
Today we are talking about Enemies of the Family.
How do Christians walk?
We walk in love, as Christ taught us to walk.
This is a high ceiling, but it is nevertheless exactly what the Lord expects of His people.
When we fail, He is willing to work with us, He knows how to forgive.
But make no mistake about it, God wants us to grow continually in the fullness of life in Jesus Christ.
This may sound like an admonition for personal Christian living alone, but it also precedes a lengthy passage on family relationships.
Therefore we should apply these truths to the family as well as our personal lives.
We have already identified friends of the family, but we should be aware of enemies of the family as well.
While it is true that certain television shows and movies can be detrimental to the health of the family, these are not our primary enemies.
We cannot isolate ourselves from the world if we are to have any impact on it.
The real enemies of the family are those that arise out of our own disobedience to the Word of God.
We can name these enemies by looking carefully at our Scripture passage.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.”
Today’s message is titled To Err Is Human, To Forgive Is Divine.
One more story remains in this series from the life of Joseph.
Events moved rapidly after the cupbearer finally told Pharaoh about the prisoner who had such wonderful ability because of his God.
Pharaoh called on Joseph to interpret his dream.
Soon the Hebrew boy was made prime minister of the land, second only to the king himself.
Later his brothers came to Egypt to but grain during the famine.
For a short time, Joseph played cat and mouse with them, but at last he revealed himself to them.
One of the noblest statements in God’s Word is Joseph’s address to his brothers.
Not only did he forgive them for what they had done, but he went so far as to say that God was actually using them in His plan when they sold him as a slave.
Of course, Joseph’s forgiveness did not lessen their guilt, but it may have diminished their fears of his possible revenge.
This evening, let’s look at some truths from this story.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
“Beneath the Cross of Jesus" is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross.
Today’s message is titled The Face Of Faithfulness, John.
Christianity began with a group of men gathered by Jesus, but at the cross Christianity resembled a woman’s movement.
Of the twelve men Jesus made apostles, only one was faithful to the end.
Four faithful women stood with this one man until the end.
One of them was Mary, Jesus’ mother.
Her sister was there also.
Mary Magdalene was another of the four, and with her was the wife of Clopas.
But tonight we want to focus our attention on John.
His face beneath the cross is the face of faithfulness.
A study of John’s presence at the cross will help us in our pursuit of faithfulness.

This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.”
Today’s message is titled Ingratitude Is a Hard Hearted Foe.
Even while he was in prison, Joseph’s impeccable character shone through.
The prison warden recognised Joseph’s integrity and put him in charge of all the prisoners.
Like Potiphar, the warden gave Joseph free rein, and God blessed him even in prison.
Some time later, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker were thrown in prison, and once again dreams entered Joseph’s life.
One night the cupbearer and the baker both had strange dreams, and the next morning Joseph interpreted their dreams correctly.
The cupbearer was restored to his position, but the baker was killed.
Joseph refused to take credit for his wisdom but gave it to God.
Also, he asked the cupbearer to remember him kindly and mention him to Pharaoh.
The cupbearer agreed, but after he was restored to favour, he failed to keep his promise.
Let’s look at this story more closely and find some truths.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
“Beneath the Cross of Jesus" is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross.
Today’s message is titled The Face Of Failure, Simon Peter.
Any of us could have done what Peter did.
Failure as a disciple does not require exceptional weakness or extreme character flaws.
This careful record of Peter’s failure is a good reminder of this fact.
Peter, a chief apostle, was present at the cross as a failure.
Let’s review the facts we know about Peter so that we can put his failure into proper perspective.
He joined the followers of Jesus very early after his brother, Andrew, brought him to Jesus.
He gave up a fishing business to become a fisher of men.
Jesus chose him to be one of the twelve apostles and later included him in the inner circle.
He ws present at the transfiguration of our Lord and was an eyewitness of most of his miracles.
He has received personal instruction from the Lord on a daily basis for over three years before his failure.
Peter had not always been a failure.
He was the one who gave the bold confession that so delighted Jesus’ heart.
Peter had never been without words before.
But now under the pressure of the circumstance, facing the scrutiny of the group in the courtyard of the high priest, he vehemently denied three times that he knew the Lord.
Though he had loved the Lord, he denied Him.
Most of us who have been disciples a while can identify with Peter.
We know the pain of failure.
We can learn from Peter’s experience.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This month we are working our way through a series titled “The Christian Family, Living for Christ in the Present.”
Marriage and the family are under great stress today.
The church has a vital stake in the husband / wife relationships and the parent / child relationships of those who call themselves believers.
Today we are talking about Friends of the Family.
We have all heard or experienced stories of floods or cyclones coming through and destroying houses.
The people who have lost their homes probably felt secure, because they may have seen flooding or cyclones previously.
We can imagine what they must have felt as all the work they had invested in those houses started to fall apart of become submerged.
They were forced to leave their homes in fear.
Many kinds of enemies, often unseen ones, eat away at the foundations not only of our houses but of our homes.
The financial investment we have in our houses is not all that is threatened, the very survival of our families is vulnerable.
To paraphrase a common Scripture verse Mark 8:36, For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?
We could say “What good is it for some to gain the whole world but forfeit their family?”
But as sure as there are enemies of the family, there are also certain friends of the family.
Jesus not only taught us what to guard against but what to embrace.
He not only taught us what to do, but he helps us see how to do it.
In today’s Scripture reading, Jesus gave us the clues we need for building healthy families.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.”
Today’s message is titled Without Purity We Cannot Please God.
Whatever immaturities Joseph may have had as a young lad, his dedication and genuine of character more than made up for them.
When Joseph arrived in Egypt as a slave, Potiphar, one of the Pharaoh’s chief officials, brought him.
Joseph immediately advanced in position and was soon responsible with many large responsibilities.
His trouble, however, began when his master’s wife tried to entice him.
Joseph refused, but she wouldn’t give up.
Later the wicked woman accused Joseph of doing the very thing he had consistently refused to do.
This incident, Joseph’s refusal to compromise his moral integrity, is possibly the most remembered fact about his life in Egypt.
If Joseph had yielded to the woman’s advances, the history of his life would probably have been very different.
He stood firm on his convictions and was forced to go to jail, but emerged victorious a few years later.
One interesting side note to the story is that Potiphar probably didn’t really believe his wife’s story.
If he had, Joseph would have been executed immediately.
When Potiphar placed him in jail, he was actually showing mercy.
There are several interesting lessons speaking to us from this story.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
“Beneath the Cross of Jesus" is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross.
Today’s message is titled The Face Of Favour, Simon of Cyrene.
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Simon of Cyrene was.
As we study the faces beneath the cross, we find the face of this favoured man.
He carried the cross to Golgotha, where Jesus was crucified.
We will use our imaginations this evening to fill in some of the details that are implied and see Simon’s story as it may have been.
Simon was born into a dedicated Jewish home in the North African city of Cyrene.
His parents expressed their faith at his birth by naming him Simon, the name of one of the famous sons of Jacob the patriarch.
As Simon grew into manhood, he probably dreamed of going to Jerusalem to observe Passover.
Such a pilgrimage was the aspiration of all the faithful Hebrew people scattered across the world.
Finally, Simon the Cyrene had the opportunity and was about to realise his dream.
We can imagine his heart beating with excitement as he entered the Holy City for the first time.
when he arrived in Jerusalem, he found the city in an uproar.
Everyone was talking about the teacher from Galilee.
they were sharp divided over Jesus’ identity.
Some were certain that He was the long awaited Messiah, but others considered Him a false prophet.
There were reports that the leaders of the people were plotting His death.
On the day of the great Passover, Simon stumbled on a strange spectacle as he entered the city.
He saw a noisy crowd gathered around a group of soldiers.
In the middle of the soldiers was an obviously weary man dragging a Roman cross.
Most of the crowd were heckling the condemned Man.
The soldiers were prodding Him to hurry Him up.
Anyone watching could see that He was about to fall under the weight of the cross.
when Simon saw what was happening, he decided to stay in the shadows.
Just then the soldiers decided they had had enough of the slow pace of the tired criminal.
They wanted to finish their assignment.
They looked around for someone to carry the cross, and their eyes fell on Simon.
One of them grabbed Simon.
“You!” He growled.
“You take this cross out to the hill.”
Because he was a Jewish man, Simon was powerless to refuse.
Roman soldiers had the power to conscript any non Roman anytime they pleased.
Reluctant and embarrassed, Simon shouldered the cross and followed the soldiers to Golgotha.
Maybe was the outcry of the women that caused Simon to take a second look at the condemned Man.
Somewhere along the way, he became aware that he was carrying the cross of Jesus of Nazareth.
It is easy for us to see that the soldiers unknowingly granted Simon tremendous favour.
Any of us who know Jesus would have been glad to carry the cross.
Yet in a real sense the opportunity to bear His cross is always with us.
The cross symbolised all of the shame and disapproval that accompanied the life and death of Christ.
The ross was what it cost our Lord to do the will of His Father.
If we choose to walk in His ways, we, too, will bear His cross.
This event changed Simon’s life forever.
What a favoured man he was!
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.Happy Mothers DayAre you looking for a place of protection and rest? The entire script of the Bible, whether specifically or by implication, addresses the security of the one who trusts in the Lord.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.”
Today’s message is titled Dream, but Don’t Make Dreams Your Master.
Joseph, like Jacob, stands out as one of the most interesting and exciting characters of the Old Testament.
All but one of Joseph’s brothers were born of different mothers, making for a diversity of interest and intensely competitive spirit among the brothers and ultimately leading to hostility.
The tension between Joseph and his brothers is reminiscent of the conflict between Jacob and Esau.
Even though Jacob and Esau had their differences, in the end they seemed to have become reconciled to the point that they did not seek to harm one another.
Joseph, on the other hand, remained a possible threat to his brothers, at least in their minds, until the very end.
Although he had forgiven them and given them positions of privilege in Egypt, they feared that after their father died Joseph would retaliate for the evil they had done to him.
Today’s Scripture reading concerns Joseph’s early years.
God had given him several meaningful dreams, and he boldly reported them to his family.
Even though we recognise that Joseph was chosen of God for a great mission, he was still a human being, and we are not irreverent to point out certain signs of his immaturity.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
“Beneath the Cross of Jesus" is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross.
Today’s message is titled The Face Of Fortune, Barabbas.
Pilate presented Barabbas to the crowd as an alternative, seeking to escape his responsibility the ordeal.
His training in Roman justice made it difficult for him to condemn an innocent man.
Pilate’s offer takes on special significance if both of these men had the same name.
Many scholars believe that the full name of Barabbas was Jesus Barabbus.
There is some written evidence to support this.
And if this was the case, the crowd had to choose between Jesus of Nazareth and Jesus Barabbas.
The face of Barabbas is truly the face of good fortune.
Never has a better thing happened to a man on the day of his expected crucifixion.
Jesus of Nazareth probably died on the cross that had been prepared for Jesus Barabbas.
When the Sabbath came, Jesus was lying in a tomb and Barabbas was sleeping in his own bed.
This graphically sets forth the central truth of the gospel, “Christ died for us.”

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.This month we are working our way through a series titled “The Christian Family, Living for Christ in the Present.”Marriage and the family are under great stress today.The church has a vital stake in the husband / wife relationships and the parent / child relationships of those who call themselves believers.Today we are talking about Healthy Families are No Accident.Healthy families are no accident, and they are usually happy families.But happiness is not what im talking about this morning.Happiness should not be our goal.It is not something we find at the end of a rainbow.It is what happens to us along the way to building a meaningful, purposeful life.Families, like people, get sick sometimes.We are not always healthy.But when we get sick, we want to get well.Sometimes it is harder for sick families to get well than it is for sick bodies to heal, because we have trouble admitting that our families are sick.Sick families can get well, but healing doesn’t happen automatically.It happens only when people are determined to change their lifestyle.In our text from the sermon on the mount, we learn some exciting truths that can be applied to family life.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
Jacob, originally a crook, had a life changing experience with God.
Lessons from a changed man is this months theme.
Today’s message is titled Start Over Where You Began.
To Jacob, Bethel was more than a geographic location.
It was the place where he had first come to know the Lord in a personal way.
All of us have our Bethels.
For some of us, it is where we accepted Jesus Christ as personal Saviour.
We may also have smaller Bethels in our lives, those times when we awakened to a more relationship with God.
Whatever Jacob may have known about God before his Bethel experience, we do not know.
We can be certain, however, that this was the dearest place on earth to Jacob, because there he entered into a relationship with the Lord that, though clouded over at times by sin, remained his moment of inspiration that sent him forth with a song in his heart.
Now God wanted Jacob to follow the Jabot experience with a time of fresh dedication.
He called on him to go back to the place of spiritual origin.
The text does not tell us that God commanded him to do it, but Jacob took his household with him and told them to put away the strange gods they had become attached to during the days in Haran, to purify themselves, and to put on fresh clothes as a symbol of a new spiritual beginning.
How Jacob’s heart must have beat faster when they handed him the various pieces of jewellery that represented dedication to foreign gods and practices.
He hid them and most likely never went back to recover them.
We can find some great teachings in this account.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Thinking about the Cross is the theme for Tuesday evenings in April.
As Christians, we live with the inspiration of a crucified and risen Saviour.
God’s gift to us on the cross motivates us to unselfish service.
Today’s message is titled The Triumph of the Cross.
Colossians includes three great teachings.
Firstly, our incarnation of Jesus Christ.
He was a real human being of flesh and blood and bones and not an apparition as some of the false teachers said.
Jesus was and is God in all that God is and not just an intermediary being as others had taught the Colossians.
The high water mark of the New Testament is this, “For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form.”
The supremacy of Jesus Christ paramount.
He is supreme in creation and over all created things, He is supreme in the church, and He is supreme over all principalities and powers.
What about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and its meaning?
These heretical teachers had attacked the Christian teaching of redemption through Christ’s death in two ways.
“Christ did not have an actual physical body” some of the false teachers said.
“He only appeared to have one” was what they taught.
Therefore, they maintained that the crucifixion was not an actual event but only a non historical apparition.
Others among the heretics said, “Christ had a real physical body, but He was not God’s Son.
Hence, they contended , “the crucifixion, though a historical event, had no saving power.”
Paul wrote to the Colossians largely to refute these views.
Thus the teaching about the crucifixion is the main thrust of his letter.
The heart of the Christian religion is this, We are redeemed through His blood, shed on the cross.
Through the death of His Son, God has triumphed over sin and death and the devil.
Tonight’s Scripture reading presents a fact and the implications of that fact.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our theme for the month of April is “Recognising and Responding to the Living Lord.”
Today we are talking about The Spirit Within and the World Without.
With what do you associate the word “power”?
The power of a river, is instructive when harnessed at a dam but destructive when in a rampaging flood?
The power of atomic energy, capable of levelling Hiroshima of peering cities?
The powerful influence of a government leaders?
The power of peer pressure?
Power can be defined as “The means to achieve the assignment.”
A car without a motor is only good for looking at, its not taking you anywhere.
The car needs engine power to accomplish its purpose.
Likewise, Christians are to be more than showpieces of morality.
We need the power of the Holy Spirit accomplish our mission in the world.
We are called to be salt and light, a preserving and uplifting influence among people, God’s change agents in the world.
Jesus assures us that the power we need to fulfil this mission is available.
Acts 1:8, But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The Spirit within is the power to face the world without.
This gift of victorious power is affirmed in 1 John 4:4, You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
Until next time

We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
Jacob, originally a crook, had a life changing experience with God.
Lessons from a changed man is this months theme.
Today’s message is titled Fighting For Our Faith.
Jacob’s life with Laban was a stormy one.
Surely Laban did not completely despise his son in law, after all, Jacob presented him with a number of grandchildren.
Yet the scheming between the two carried on constantly, and finally Jacob left the country.
Even then, a stormy scene ensued.
But ultimately they “mended their fences,” and Jacob journeyed back to the land of his father and mother.
The scene at Jabot is a strange one.
Jacob sent his company on before him and was left alone.
He was greatly disturbed because he did not know how Esau would receive him.
Jacob prayed earnestly that night, and his experience with the mysterious stranger was no doubt a great part of his encounter with God.
We cannot dismiss this episode as a dream.
Even though we cannot understand it completely, the account is historical.
Who was the mysterious stranger?
Jacob later said concerning the incident that he had “seen God face to face” and we must leave the account there.
Some valuable lessons from this incident stand out to us.
Until next time

Thinking about the Cross is the theme for Tuesday evenings in April.
As Christians, we live with the inspiration of a crucified and risen Saviour.
God’s gift to us on the cross motivates us to unselfish service.
Today’s message is titled The Glory of the Cross.
Paul’s argument in Galatians is that if these gentile Christians submit to circumcision as a symbol of their commitment to the Jewish law, they have nullified the power of the cross of Christ.
Their circumcision would be a sign of dependence on the law and not grace for salvation.
The law is not the gospel of Christ, it is not a gospel at all.
This thought is at the heart of our Scripture reading today.
It is summed up in our text, Galatians 6:14, But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Paul glorified not in the law but in the cross.

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.Our theme for the month of April is “Recognising and Responding to the Living Lord.”Today we are talking about Where The Spirit of the Lord is.Acts 2 records an awesome historic event that changed the church forever, the coming of the Holy Spirit into the life of the church on the day of Pentecost.It happened just as definitely as Jesus’ birth and resurrection, and believers were never the same.The church really became the church at Pentecost.We don’t need Pentecost again as such, just as we don’t need Jesus’ birth, death, or resurrection to occur again.But we constantly need the person of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit, in control of our lives and the church.Acts 2 is a fascinating chapter of Scripture.It has so much to teach us as a church if we are to know the Spirit of Pentecost.Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is usually something spiritually special.This is the story of Acts.This is the story of the church through the centuries..This is its message to us today.Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there are four results.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
Jacob, originally a crook, had a life changing experience with God.
Lessons from a changed man is this months theme.
Today’s message is titled We Reap What We Sow.
The eager lad went with excitement on his journey.
His steps must have been lighter as he anticipated the experiences of a new country.
With the help of the Lord, Jacob immediately found the country where his mother’s relatives lived.
The adrenaline must have been flowing in his system, because when he saw Rachel, he was able, by himself, to roll the stone from the well’s mouth, a task that usually required several men.
When he identified himself to Rachel, she was delighted to know him and ran to tell her father.
Jacob the schemer met his match in Laban, his mother’s brother.
Jacob remained as a guest for a month, but after that Laban suggested that a contract be drawn up for work.
Jacob proposed that he work seven years for Laban’s daughter, and at that time she would become his wife.
However, Jacob did not count on Laban’s craftiness.
The wedding feast was a great one, with all the customers of that day.
The morning after the wedding had been consummated in the darkness of the tent, Jacob discovered that he had slept with Leah, Laban’s elder daughter, rather than Rachel.
Of course he raised great objections, but Laban showed him the “fine print” in the contract and explained that it was a custom of their country never to give the younger daughter in marriage until the first born was wedded.
As a result, Jacob had to serve another seven years working for Rachel.
Naturally Jacob loved Rachel more than Leah.
However, God blessed Leah with many children.
It was a long time before Rachel bore even one child, and then she died giving birth to the second one.
Some great lesson stand out for us from this story.
Until next time

There is Mount Sinai, where God’s people, Israel, received the law.
There is Mount Tabor, where in Judges 5:20, They fought from the heavens;
The stars from their courses fought against Sisera.
There is Mount Carmel, where Elijah defeated the prophets of Baal and God answered by fire.
There is Mount Hermon, the prophetic mountain of the transfiguration.
But above all of them is Mount Calvary.
No mountain towers so high in its influence on people’s hearts and minds as that skull shaped knoll outside the city wall of Jerusalem.
Paul told the Corinthians, in 1 Corinthians 1:18, For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
The gospel is essentially the story of the cross, and that story is God’s message to the world.
The message of the cross has never lost its power.
The cross was a divine event.
But how is that?
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.Our theme for the month of April is “Recognising and Responding to the Living Lord.”Today we are talking about Life in the Son.After the spiritual high of Resurrection Sunday, some might ask, “Where to from here?”Im glad you ask, we go onto perfection! Or at least those who are obedient and willing do!And Im going to give you the church a choice, do you want Pastor Gary moving forward, or do you want the Prophetic Gary? The choice is yours but either way I have an expectation of you, that is that you listen and put the Word of God into action.If you want the prophet be warned, you may not like what you hear sometimes.Brother Sadhu said my walk would be a violent one, are you ready?Remember the last time I preached the day the fast started? I said that the “revivals” that started in the US were shut down by the Lord a day earlier?Have you heard anything about them since?Im sick and tired of seat warming bread eaters, if you want to be a bread eater only that’s ok but your going to miss out on what the Lord has for you.There is no condemnation here, the Lord is meeting you where you are at and carefully lifting you up.I didn’t just spend 40 days only drinking water to stay where we are, it is no longer business as usual!If you want a church that will entertain you instead of challenge you to grow, let me know, I will introduce you to the pastors at those churches.Because Christ lives, we can be sure of several truths that change our lives into a daily experience worth living.The key word in John’s first letter is “know”, the word is found thirty times in 105 verses.John was certain of the gifts that come with Christ.One of these gifts is life in the Son, 1 John 5:11 NKJV11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ.
Jacob, originally a crook, had a life changing experience with God.
Lessons from a changed man is this months theme.
Today’s message is titled Finding God for Yourself.
Do you find God, or does God find you?
In a sense it works both ways.
When an evangelist once asked a young boy, “Have you found Jesus?” The bot replied, “Mister, I didn’t know Jesus was lost.”
Of course , that’s true.
On the other hand , god is lost to us if we don’t know Him.
Today’s Scripture reading tells how a young man, away from home for perhaps the first time, discovered God for himself, an experience that surpassed any previous knowledge he may have had of the Lord.
Jacob may have made it all the way to Bethel his first night away from home.
Remember, he was fleeing from Esau and was a young man.
He probably travelled light and fast.
The spot he chose to spend the night was the site of an old Canaanite worship place.
God, however, used this location as a sanctuary for His glory.
Our Lord can always give new meaning to old things, and He delights in transforming the ungodly into something or someone that will bring praise to His name.
Jacob had a marvellous dream that night and awoke to find that his life had new meaning.
For perhaps the first time in his life, God was real to him.
This firsthand experience transformed him and sent him on his way to Haran t=with a new attitude toward life and changed goals.
Some great lessons come to us from this experience.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Thinking about the Cross is the theme for Tuesday evenings in April.
As Christians, we live with the inspiration of a crucified and risen Saviour.
God’s gift to us on the cross motivates us to unselfish service.
Today’s message is titled The Theology of the Cross.
When we look at the cross, we can easily become preoccupied with the details of the agonising death, the mocking crowd, and the darkened skies.
While we should never forget what people did to Jesus that day, the significance of the cross lies in what Jesus did for people.
Paul turned again and again to the cross and made it central to his theology, the cross was the instrumental the amazing act of love and self sacrifice that set people free.
Paul preached Christ as crucified because on the cross Refinished His work as mediator between God and people.
Paul told the Galatians in Galatians 6:14, But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
As we seek to understand the theology of the cross, lets think in the broadest terms possible beginning at the outer court and moving toward the centre.
Until next time

Good evening and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Tonight Pastor Amanda discusses church renewal.
The Spiritual Struggle for the Renewal of the Church is a topic we need to understand so that we can overcome the obstacles and move forward, into the fullness of what The Lord has for His Bride.
We need to cooperate with the Father God, who is working in our midst, pruning out those branches of dead fruit, cleaning up bad attitudes, pulling down selfish ambitions to be seen and heard by man, and remove actions or works that are counter productive to advancing the Kingdom of God, so that the church might bear much fruit.
Tonight we are talking about Renew My Church.
The time is now that we are to present ourselves to Him for His usefulness.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.Today we continue the journey of laying a strong foundation in our own lives which is necessary for Entering the Kingdom of God.Jesus said that if we don’t have the right foundations laid in our lives in these end times, our houses will be blown away. Matthew 7:24-27We are living in times of great darkness and great light, and a time where the end time harvest is about to be reaped.Its time to go on to perfection. We are called to be an extension of Jesus in this physical world. We have a mandate to bring a Living Christ to a dying world.The foundation of eternal judgement is there in to keep us on a straight course, it is there to anchor us into a solid awareness of eternal values.Without an understanding of this foundation we can tend to live lives that do not reflect the reality of eternity. The truth is we shall all stand before God to have our lifes reviewed and we shall all must give an account for our lives on this earth.It is very important that we understanding the reality of eternal judgement. It will help us to remain diligent of our purpose as disciples of Jesus and keep us on track to live lives that reflect the reality of eternity.We still have time if we are alive to put things right with the Lord and live for Him. We need to ask God to search our hearts and in all sincerity and humility.It is not how you start the race it is how you finish the race that counts. Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we continue the journey of laying a strong foundation in our own lives which is necessary for Entering the Kingdom of God.
Jesus said that if we don’t have the right foundations laid in our lives in these end times, our houses will be blown away.
Matthew 7:24-27
We are living in times of great darkness and great light, and a time where the end time harvest is about to be reaped.
Its time to go on to perfection.
We are called to be an extension of Jesus in this physical world. We have a mandate to bring a Living Christ to a dying world.
Today we will be looking at the laying on of hands. This is the fourth principle that we are establishing from the key study of the scriptures Hebrews 6:1-3.
To walk in the reality of our God given destiny we can bring forth the Hope of Glory that for a time was hidden but now is revealed for right now. Christ in us is the only hope for this world, the only way the goodness of God will be seen in this earth is through Christ in us. The Bible gives us examples for the purpose of laying on of hands. ' To commission ' To impart Blessings 'To heal the sick ' To receive the Holy Spirit. Join us as we take a closer look at the foundational principle of Laying on of Hands.
Until next time

Today we continue the journey of laying a strong foundation in our own lives which is necessary for Entering the Kingdom of God.
Jesus said that if we don’t have the right foundations laid in our lives in these end times, our houses will be blown away.
Matthew 7:24-27
We are living in times of great darkness and great light, and a time where the end time harvest is about to be reaped so today we are looking at The Doctrine of Baptisms.
Its time to go on to perfection.
The Bible gives instruction on three different baptisms.
Water Baptism
Baptism of the Holy Spirit
Baptism of Fire.
Water baptism is not just another Christian ritual but an act of obedience to God’s word and it releases Gods power to cut the person being baptized free from the old life.
Water Baptism prepares the way for the Holy Spirit to come upon a person, the two baptisms are closely linked.
Baptism in the Holy Spirit is necessary for power in your Christian life and in service to God.
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a foundation that must be laid in our lives if we are to reach the goal of the Promised Land.
It is another step in our journey into the Kingdom of God.
We need the baptism of the Holy Spirit and we need to be continually filled with the Holy Spirit .
Baptism of fire is an experience that deals with the nature of sin in peoples lives, the fire purges them, doing a great work within to prepare a place for the Holy Spirit to dwell.
We must prepare our hearts in absolute surrender to God and seek God, like never before.
The Bride will be made ready without spot or any blemish, are you willing?
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Demons.
The subject of demons has run the full gamut in people’s thinking.
Some people become obsessed with the study of demons, allowing their imaginations to run away with them.
They see demons everywhere.
Some become self appointed exorcists and set about to rid their world of these tools of satan.
They tend to say that everything that is evil is because of demonic activity.
At the other extreme are those who deny the existence of demons, relegating them to ancient mythology or to an earlier era of ignorance and superstition.
The ancient Greeks believed that demons were the souls of people who had died.
Others have believed that demons are the disembodied spirits of a race of people who existed before Adam and Eve were created.
The Scriptures, however, make no mention of such a race.
It is the general consensus of conservative theologians that demons are the angels who revolted with satan.
They are also referred to as unclean spirits.
The King James Version of the Bible refers to them as devils, the proper translation of the Greek word is demons.
There is one devil but many demons.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
“The Past Speaks to the Present” is our theme for the next four Tuesdays.
These messages are based on the lives of the patriarchs.
Today’s message is titled Watch Your Weak Moments.
Each of us experiences weak moments when we should not make decisions.
In a weak moment, a dieter may see a delicious dessert and yield to temptation.
In a weak moment, a tired driver may decide to keep driving instead of pulling over, and that decision could be dangerous, even deadly.
Weak moments can cause us to lose our character.
Esau had a lot of advantages.
He was the oldest son of Isaac and Rebekah and thus had the birthright.
He was a rugged outdoorsman and a skillful hunter.
Unfortunately, he had a flaw that cost him dearly.
He had trouble handling weak moments.
This flaw was especially apparent when he sold his birthright to Jacob because of sheer hunger.
The story of Esau teaches us some valuable lessons about the weak moments of life.
Let’s look at these lessons today and take them to heart.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we continue the journey of laying a strong foundation in our own lives which is necessary for Entering the Kingdom of God.
Jesus said that if we don’t have the right foundations laid in our lives in these end times, our houses will be blown away.
Matthew 7:24-27
We are living in times of great darkness and great light, and a time where the end time harvest is about to be reaped so today we are looking at faith towards God.
Its time to go on to perfection.
God declares in His word that without faith we cannot please Him.
Faith and obedience go hand in hand.
Obedience has its roots in love, we obey the Lord because we love Him. When we operate in the realm of faith, God releases power.
It is God who imparts faith but He waits for us to act on it, only then is power released to bring to pass the purpose of our faith.
We cannot move on in God without faith, and faith must become a way of life to us.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about the Devil.
Satan doesn’t want us to study his characteristics and learn about his tactics.
He would much rather work behind the scenes and keep alive the fallacy that he is a red skinned creature with horns, a forked tail, and a pitch fork, with smoke perpetually coming out of his nostrils.
This caricature of satan gives rise to the sinister persuasion that he is not a real person at all, but a mythological of fictional character who only represents an evil influence in the world.
However, the Bible clearly describes the devil and carefully outlines his strategy.

“The Past Speaks to the Present” is our theme for the next four Tuesdays.
These messages are based on the lives of the patriarchs.
Today’s message is titled Getting Guidance from God.
Each and every day thousands of airplanes fill the skies all around the world.
Guiding them so that they avoid accidents is a serious responsibility shared by air traffic controllers and pilots.
Each plane has a complex guidance system as well, that the pilots depend on.
In the book of Genesis, we can read the story of how Abraham received intricate guidance from God to obtain a wife for his son of promise, Isaac.
We can examine this story to learn what steps Abraham, his servant, and Isaac took to obtain God’s guidance.

Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Death.
The fact that there are so many different theories about what happens to our souls when we die indicates our desire to understand the phenomenon of death.
We hear and use such expressions as “life in the next world,” “life after death,” and “life on the other side.”
Does the Bible speak conclusively about this question?
Yes!
And the Scriptural answer provides abiding hope for Christians, particularly as we deal with the death of a loved one or prepare to face death ourselves.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
In every congregation there is at least one person with a broken heart.
One function of the Pastor, the Shepherd is to help bind up the broken hearted.
The theme for our Tuesday evenings this month is “Is There Any Good News For Those Who Suffer?”
Today’s message is titled The Mystery of Pain and Suffering.
Some people see no mystery about the problem of suffering.
They believe that suffering is the result of an inevitable law that every cause produces an effect.
They would reason that suffering is due to some great sin the sufferer has committed.
Christians have a problem with suffering that non Christians do not have.
Christianity proclaims that God is love and that He loves the whole world.
If this is true, why does He permit undeserved suffering?
If God loves and if He has all power, then He should protect us from pain and suffering.
Some have sought to solve this problem by saying that those who suffer have been guilty of some sin and have brought God’s judgement on themselves.
This simplistic solution to a complex question is unsatisfactory and incorrect.
Between our entrance into life and our exit from life, we experience many kinds of pain and suffering, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, visible, invisible, recognised, and unrecognised.
Many suffer because of natural disasters.
Many suffer because of historical events and decisions that were made in the past.
Many suffer because of decisions and choices made by their ancestors.
We must also recognise that a lot of suffering comes to us because of our personal choices and the choices of others.
What does Jesus teach about pain and suffering?
Does Jesus have any good news for those who suffer?

Hey everyone welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our theme for the month of February is “The New Life That Is Possible Through Christ.”
Today we are talking about The Hearts Cry for Revival.
Psalm 80 contains a truth that is urgently important to all of us.
It is a Word from God that will help us understand the events in our times.
It will lead to a heart cry for revival, which in turn will lead to new life in the church.
Let’s look at three words that pinpoint this truth this morning.
Hedges, Hope, and Heart Cry.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Stewardship.
Perhaps no area in life is more sensitive that our finances.
We may be open about every other part of our lives, but the moment someone questions us about out money or possessions, we become very defensive.
Nonetheless, some of Jesus’ most pertinent parables and teachings are about the stewardship of our possessions.
Jesus knows the joy that awaits believers when they train the level of commitment where they completely surrender all they have to god, including the stewardship of their possessions.
Luke 12:13-34 contains one of Jesus’ clearest commentaries on stewardship.
He began by using a parable to illustrate the truth He wanted to drive home.
This particular story was precipitated by an incident that arose between two brothers.
Evidently their father had died, and one brother was not pleased with the way the estate had been divided.
He asked Jesus, “Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.”
Then note verse 15, “He said unto them.”
No doubt the disciples and the crowd listened carefully to Jesus, but He likely directed His remarks specifically to these brothers.
First, He stated a principle, “Take heed, and beware of covetousness, for a mans life consists not in the abundance of the things he possesses.”
Then, after He had the attention of the brothers, He began to relate a story about a rich man.
Traditionally we have assumed that this man was an unbeliever who worshipped the god of materialism.
He may have been.
Or he may have been a believer, but an immature, egocentric, materialistic believer.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
In every congregation there is at least one person with a broken heart.
One function of the Pastor, the Shepherd is to help bind up the broken hearted.
The theme for our Tuesday evenings this month is “Is There Any Good News For Those Who Suffer?”
Today’s message is titled The Management of Pain.
From cradle to grave, we spend much of our existence trying to avoid pain.
If you watch television commercials, you have probably noticed that many offer advice about how to manage pain.
Such solutions are temporary.
Some peel try to escape pain through drugs and alcohol, but they find that their pain increases instead of disappearing.
Still others stoically just “grin and bear” their pain.
How do you manage pain?
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our theme for the month of February is “The New Life That Is Possible Through Christ.”
Today we are talking about The Living Christ in the Church.
Lenin’s embalmed remains lie in a crystal casket in a tomb in Red Square in Moscow.
An inscription on the casket reads, “He was the greatest leader of all peoples, of all countries, of all times. He was the lord of the new humanity. He was the saviour of the world.”
All that Lenin did is in the past tense.
We have the true Saviour of the world, the living Christ.
How do we know that Jesus Christ is living in power among us?
For the Jerusalem church, the healing of the lame man signified the power of the living Christ and that He was present among them.
How about us?
Do we see lives being changed miraculously?
Are things happening among us that amaze us and fill us with wonder?
The book of Acts emphasises the reality of the living Christ in the church.
Let’s consider three lessons from Acts 3.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Vengeance.
Peter’s question, “How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?” And the Lord’s answer, “Not seven times, but seventy times seven times,” reflect our struggle with the problem of vengeance.
Because of our fallen nature, our instinctive reaction is to fight back, to lash out at those who infringe on our “rights.”
Jesus, of course, had a great deal to say about this in His Sermon on the Mount, radiating from His basic and startling command, “Love your enemies.”
The kind of attitude was totally unheard of, even among the most religious in Judaism.
In fact, the exhortation of the rabbis was, “Love your friends and hate your enemies.”
The apostle Paul expanded on Jesus’ theme in Romans 12:14-21.
In quick succession, he provided a list of exhortations that deal both directly and indirectly with a Christian’s attitude toward vengeance.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
In every congregation there is at least one person with a broken heart.
One function of the Pastor, the Shepherd is to help bind up the broken hearted.
The theme for our Tuesday evenings this month is “Is There Any Good News For Those Who Suffer?”
Today’s message is titled Is There a Connection between Sin and Suffering?
When disaster struck the house of Job, his friends came at greta trouble and inconvenience to comfort and counsel him.
Job’s friends held to the traditional thoughts of their day, which in many respects are still the thoughts of our day.
They believed that God always rewards righteousness.
They believed that God always punishes wickedness.
They perceived that righteousness always pays off with peace, prosperity, popularity, plenty, and permanence.
Job’s friends saw God as a judge.
They understood Him somewhat in terms of His being a prosecuting attorney or a policeman.
They believed God to be an executioner.
They believed that God’s law was self operating and self executing, and that if you found yourself in great pain and suffering, it was proof that you were a great sinner.
The writer of the book of Job challenges all of our simple solutions to the complex questions that plague us when we are faced with pain and trouble.
The easy answer is usually the incorrect answer.
While recognising that sin ultimately results in suffering, when you study the book of Job, you cannot help but conclude that not all suffering is the direct result of sin.
Job is an excellent example of this truth.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Prayer.
What is prayer?
To say that prayer is “communication with God” is an oversimplification.
Prayer is the sincere desire of our souls expressed to God.
Prayer is what allows us to establish intimacy with the Creator.
Prayer creates an awareness of God’s constant nearness to His people.
Prayer is also how unbelievers, recognising their sinful nature and need for salvation, yeah out by faith to receive God’s gift of eternal life.
Prayer is the expression of praise to God as well as the medium through which petitions are made on behalf of human need.
Prayer is described, explained, and illustrated throughout the Bible.the greatest and most profound demonstration of prayer is illustrated in the earthly life of Jesus, who is often recorded praying to His heavenly Father.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
In every congregation there is at least one person with a broken heart.
One function of the Pastor, the Shepherd is to help bind up the broken hearted.
The theme for our Tuesday evenings this month is “Is There Any Good News For Those Who Suffer?”
Today’s message is titled How Do You Face Trouble?
Is there any good news for those who suffer?
In times when trouble strikes, we need to take inventory to see if there is any good news that can cheer our hearts and help us bear the burden of pain.
Trouble and suffering are facts of life that all of us must cope with sooner or later.
An incurable disease may afflict someone we love or even us personally.
A financial disaster may wipe us out financially.
A domestic tragedy may tear apart our home.
Fatal accidents occur on life’s highways, and there are dead end streets where all hopeful expectations are brought to a stop.
How should Christians cope with suffering and trouble?
When trouble comes, some people turn to religion, hoping it will deepen and strengthen their faith.
Others turn away from religion in disappointment and despair.
Still others turn against religion in hate and cynicism.
How do people cope with pain and trouble?
Some yell and scream and swear.
Some develop a headache and take a Panadol.
Some drink or take drugs that enable them to escape the pain of reality temporarily.
Some pray and trust God.
What will you do when trouble comes?
Will you turn to God?
Will you turn against God?
Let’s take a look at Job, the ultimate example of a man who struggled with suffering in the times before Christ.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our theme for the month of February is “The New Life That Is Possible Through Christ.”
Today we are talking about Where is Jesus?
Todays church desperately needs new life.
The hope of the church is Christ Himself.
The basic question is, Where is Jesus?
The answer to this question enables us to praise Jesus Christ for His position now in God’s eternal plan.
Mark 16:19 says, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
Luke 24:50-51 says, And He led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them. Now it came to pass, while He blessed them, that He was parted from them and carried up into heaven.
Acts 1:9-11 describes this scene again, when Jesus Ascends to Heaven,
9 Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel,
11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
We need to answer two questions today.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The Lord’s Prayer.
Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Things That Accompany Salvation.
One fallacy that has stopped the spiritual growth of countless Christians is the concept of salvation as a termination point rather than a starting point.
It is almost as though some people, when they are save, look back on that experience and say, “Whew! I took care of that, now I can settle down to the business of living!”
And they build a fence around their Christianity and pay periodic visits to it, but by and large they live their lives as they want to.
In this Hebrews passage, the author is talking not about what constitutes salvation, rather, he is recalling what manifests or demonstrates a genuine salvation experience, both in believers themselves and to those who observe.
In the letter to the Hebrews, we discover four major gifts that accompany our salvation.
Until next time

Good Morning and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The four gospels contain the written testimony of inspired writers who report not only the events in Jesus’ life but also the significance of those events.
Paul’s letters were written to exalt Jesus Christ and to explain the meaning of His life and teachings.
They were also written to meet the great needs of the early disciples.
“The Central theme of the Apostle Paul” is the theme for this series based on five of Paul’s major letters.
Today’s message is titled Free at Last!
Paul’s letter to the Galatians, all 149 verses can be reduced down to three words, “Free at last!”
That really is the main theme of this letter.
Freedom is generally assumed to be the birthright all people, yet people are anything but free.
Bondage is more likely to be their lot.
For some the cause is psychological, others its economic, and for others still its political.
But Paul, with his profound insight into people’s most basic need, made clear that only in Christ Jesus are people truly free.
For this very reason, Paul was determined that every obstacle should be removed between people and God.
Nothing, not legalism, not moralism, not ritualism, will be allowed to prevent people from experiencing the freedom that comes only from Christ.
Like the Galatians, our is the happy experience of knowing that because of Jesus Christ and Him alone, we are free at last!
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
January is a time of new beginnings, and an appropriate response is one of celebration and praise for life with all of its opportunities.
The theme for January messages is exactly that, “Celebrating the Life That Christ Makes Possible.”
Today we are talking about Christian Rewards.
Living the supernatural life is a blessing not only now but also in the future.
There is a great difference in the doctrine of rewards for the saved.
Salvation is by grace, not by works, but rewards are according to the works of the believer.
Salvation is a gift, rewards are earned.
First Corinthians 3:8-15 reveals several truths about rewards,
1, Every believer will be rewarded according to his or her own labour.
2, We are labourers with God, not for salvation but for His service.
3, We are to build on Christ as our foundation.
4, We have a choice of two kinds of building materials, gold, silver and costly stones, or wood, hay, and straw.
The first kind represents eternal materials, the second represents temporal materials.
Building with eternal materials results in rewards.
Building with temporal materials results in loss at the judgement seat of Christ.
A minister once sat at the bedside of a dying friend.
As the friend talked of going home, tears filled his eyes.
Knowing the man was your in the Lord, the minister thought he was afraid to die and tried to speak words of encouragement to him.
The friend said, “I am not afraid, I’m just ashamed to die.”
Christ was his Saviour, but he had to meet Him empty handed.
His life was like wood, hay, and straw.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Christians can live and die crowned with victory.
Sometimes the Christian’s reward is called a prize, but sometimes it is called a crown.
Five crowns are mentioned in the New Testament.

Good Evening and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about the Three Stages of Man.
In Romans 7 Paul described humans as being either natural, carnal, or spiritual.
The natural man is the unsaved person who can rise no higher than his intellectual, moral, or volition powers can lift him.
The carnal man is a saved man who is still dominated at least partially by the power of sin and lives under the control of the old nature of Adam within him.
The spiritual man is the believer whose life is controlled by the Holy Spirit.
Until next time

Good evening and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The four gospels contain the written testimony of inspired writers who report not only the events in Jesus’ life but also the significance of those events.
Paul’s letters were written to exalt Jesus Christ and to explain the meaning of His life and teachings.
They were also written to meet the great needs of the early disciples.
“The Central theme of the Apostle Paul” is the theme for this series based on five of Paul’s major letters.
Today’s message is titled Christian Unity.
Paul didn’t deal with any problems in his letter to the Ephesians.
All news was good news from the people at Ephesus, and Paul had the joyous privilege of writing a positive letter to encourage them.
The theme of his letter is “Christian Unity.”
Paul had established many churches and watched them grow, so he realised that without unity nothing else really matters.
And with unity nothing can defeat the church.
In his first three chapters, Paul laid the foundation for Christian unity.
In his last two chapters, he described the practical results unity.
And in chapter 4, he dealt with he heart and soul of Christian unity.
Today we are going to focus our attention on this fourth chapter.
Here Paul spoke of, first, the behaviour of Christian unity, second, the basis of Christian unity, and third, the benefits of Christian unity.
Until next time

Welcome to Refinery Life Church.
January is a time of new beginnings, and an appropriate response is one of celebration and praise for life with all of its opportunities.
The theme for January messages is exactly that, “Celebrating the Life That Christ Makes Possible.”
Today we are talking about The Secret of Facing Need.
When you are confronted with special needs for yourself, your family, your job, or your church, what do you do?
Paul wrote his letter to the Philippians with some great needs himself.
As a servant of christ, he was a prisoner in Rome.
He acknowledged that he was afflicted and he was under pressure, he referred to his necessity and to their need.
Paul had learned the secret to facing need.
This is a key to celebrated Christian living.
Today we are going to look at some specific ways to deal with our needs.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about the Trinity.
The doctrine of the Trinity is a distinctive mark of Christianity.
Though there are triads of divinities in many world religions and philosophies, none of these carries any similarity to the Christian teaching concerning the Trinity.
It must be understood, however, that it is not possible to prove the Trinity from the standpoint of human reason.
The Trinitarian nature of God comes to humans by divine revelation.
It is interwoven throughout the Old and New Testaments.
Thus the Bible presents God as a rational Spirit being who is infinite in His attributes of love, holiness, wisdom, power, majesty, justice, truth, and goodness.
It also presents Him as one who exists externally in three persons yet is still one in substance and in purpose.
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The four gospels contain the written testimony of inspired writers who report not only the events in Jesus’ life but also the significance of those events.
Paul’s letters were written to exalt Jesus Christ and to explain the meaning of His life and teachings.
They were also written to meet the great needs of the early disciples.
“The Central theme of the Apostle Paul” is the theme for this series based on five of Paul’s major letters.
Today’s message is titled When You Have Been Wronged.
Some people in Corinth did not like Paul.
They were infuriated by his insistence on Christian morality and his daring to correct those whose lives proved to be a contradiction to their profession.
These worldly church members and the Judaizers joined forces against him.
The man who seemed ringleader was the same man Paul reprimanded in 1 Corinthians 5:1-15 for having an affair with his stepmother.
Apparently this man was influential.
He persisted in his sin, leasing an open revolt against Paul and taking some of the leaders with him.
Because of Paul’s second letter, the church came back into line.
They recognised the evil of this man and disciplined him.
But in the process, Paul was badly wronged, both by this man and others in the church.
They said that Paul had no authority to advise them, that he bore no letters of commendation from readers in Jerusalem aa they did, and that he had a weak and unimpressive personal appearance.
They also accused him of going back on his word by not visiting Corinth when he said he would.
If ever a man was wronged, Paul was. But because of his strong Christian witness even under fire, he has provided us with three basic truths that we can apply to our own lives when we have been wronged.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
January is a time of new beginnings, and an appropriate response is one of celebration and praise for life with all of its opportunities.
The theme for January messages is exactly that, “Celebrating the Life That Christ Makes Possible.”
Today we are talking about Christ, The Only Hope.
The key word in today’s message is hope, and the conviction of truth that is as deep as life and eternity is that Christ is the only hope!
This year 2023, is a year to acknowledge this truth.
The claim that Christ is the only hope is a bold claim because it eliminates all other claims of hope.
It is a timeless claim because it has been believed for centuries.
It is also a very serious claim because to believe it is to accept certain responsibilities.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.
For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.
Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about God.
It is impossible to define God.
To do so is to limit Him.
It is possible, however, to describe God.
And the source from which we arrive at the description is the Bible.
Thus it is appropriate to title this study, What the Bible says about God, because that is all that matters.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The four gospels contain the written testimony of inspired writers who report not only the events in Jesus’ life but also the significance of those events.
Paul’s letters were written to exalt Jesus Christ and to explain the meaning of His life and teachings.
They were also written to meet the great needs of the early disciples.
“The Central theme of the Apostle Paul” is the theme for this series based on five of Paul’s major letters.
Today’s message is titled The Most Excellent Way.
You can live any way you want to live.
You are the only person who has the power to determine how you will live.
You can be agreeable or disagreeable, a help or a hindrance, an asset or a liability to yourself, your family, your coworkers, and the kingdom of God.
But Paul said, “Yet I will show you a more excellent way.”
The Christian life’s never meant to be a good way or even a better way, but rather the most excellent way!
Paul had just received a letter from the church Corinth listing all types of problems that had arisen in their fellowship for one reason, they were not following the most excellent way.
Paul was saying, “In light of your varied lifestyles and the difficulties and heartaches they have brought upon the church, it is high time you recognise the need to follow the most excellent way!”
In his first letter to the church at Corinth, Paul gave four reasons why love is the most excellent way.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
January is a time of new beginnings, and an appropriate response is one of celebration and praise for life with all of its opportunities.
The theme for January messages is exactly that, “Celebrating the Life That Christ Makes Possible.”
Today we are talking about Celebrating Supernatural Living.
The Christian life is a supernatural life, an exciting adventure that begins with a life changing, spiritual birth.
It begins with faith and continues as a work of faith.
Living the Christian life this year can be a celebration!
In Isaiah 54;2 the Lord called Israel to expand their vision, “Enlarge the place of your tent,And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare;Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes.
This was to be done in preparation for the Lord’s restoration of Israel.
The prayer of our hearts should be for the Lord to stretch our vision, enlarge our faith, and expand our goals.
A faith vision is one in which we visualise what God intends to do and act in harmony with it.
Hebrews 11 records men and women who had a faith vision.
They saw by faith and obeyed God’s call.
If we are to experience the adventure of believing God, we must do four things.
Until next time

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.Every believer needs to know what the Bible says about spiritual issues.For the next three months, “What the Bible Says” will be the theme of the Thursday evening messages.Today’s message is titled What the Bible Says about Itself.In recent years there has been considerable division among Christians of all persuasions when it comes to the Bible and its contents.Some claim that only some parts of it are inspired.Others declare that its thoughts are inspired but not its language.Theological terminology has been used to describe certain concepts regarding the Bible and its contents, such as verbal inspiration, meeting inspiration, inerrancy, etc.Perhaps the safest course to pursue is to let the Bible speak for itself.We should always be wary of those things that lead towards bibliolatry, or the worship of the Bible as though it isa good luck charm.The important thing about the Scriptures is that they reveal to humans about God is like and how we can be reconciled to God through His Son Jesus Christ.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.orgWhen it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
The four gospels contain the written testimony of inspired writers who report not only the events in Jesus’ life but also the significance of those events.
Paul’s letters were written to exalt Jesus Christ and to explain the meaning of His life and teachings.
They were also written to meet the great needs of the early disciples.
“The Central theme of the Apostle Paul” is the theme for this series based on five of Paul’s major letters.
Today’s message is titled Believe and Behave.
Believe and behave is the central theme of the book of Romans.
Paul understands that what we believe has everything to do with how we behave.
If our belief is wrong, our behaviour will be wrong.
And if our behaviour is wrong, our belief cannot be right.
Our behaviour says more about our beliefs than does our verbal testimony or written statement of faith.
We often tend to emphasise either belief or behaviour to the exclusion of the other, which makes for a partial and imbalanced Christianity.
Paul, a man of balanced faith, assigned equal importance to each.
The first eleven chapters of Romans deal with belief and the last five with behaviour.
In the winter of AD 57-58, Paul was in Corinth at the end of his third missionary journey.
He was about to return to Jerusalem with an offering for the poor.
A woman named Phoebe, who lived in a suburb of Corinth, was about to sail to Rome.
Paul saw an opportunity to send this letter to the church of Rome with her.
Because there was no postal serving in the Roman Empire except for government business, personal letters had to be carried by friends.
Paul was not sure he would get away from Jerusalem alive.
Desiring to leave a written explanation of the gospel of salvation the hands of the Christians at Rome, he wrote this letter, which Phoebe delivered safely to the church.
Realising that this may be his only communication with the church that was so strategically located in the capital of the world, he stressed what he must have felt to be the two cardinal truths of the Christian faith, the belief that results in salvation and the behaviour that results from salvation.

Hey everyone I’m and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
January is a time of new beginnings, and an appropriate response is one of celebration and praise for life with all of its opportunities.
The theme for January messages is exactly that, “Celebrating the Life That Christ Makes Possible.”
Today we are talking about Seeking and Finding the Lost Book.
During the reign of King Josiah a great discovery was made.
Hilkiah the priest announced to Shaphan the scribe, during the time the temple was being repaired, ”I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the Lord.”
From that simple statement occurs one of the most interesting happenings in the Old Testament.
Not only did this discovery have significance then, but it has a message for now.
Finding the lost book, or rediscovering the Bible, is and especially appropriate message for the beginning of a new year.
We can look at this great discovery in two ways.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we continue our series titled “The book of Colossians”
A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about Principles For Personal Relationships.
One of the greatest problems is the problem of personal relationships, getting along with other people.
We live in relationships with others and not as isolated individuals.
The terms we use to describe people are usually terms take from our social relationships.
We say a person is kind or harsh, warm or cold, honest or corrupt, sweet or sour.
All of these descriptions indicate how people behave or react to other people.
Does Christianity have anything to do with our personal relationships?
Indeed, it does.
The gospel of Christ has a practical application in the lives of believers.
Sometimes people make a distinction between theology or belief and social concern or activity.
This is a false distinction.
What we believe is going to determine how we act.
Paul had already expressed this in general principles in the earlier verses of Colossians 3.
He had shown us some things we should strip from our lives and some things we should add to our lives.
This passage applies these principles to specific needs.
And this application is made at the point of one of our greatest needs, our domestic relationships.
The real question of Christianity is not, “What does Christianity make a person within the church?”
But “What does Christianity make a person in the home, in the office, at the school, at the factory, on the ocean, or in the bush?”
This is exactly what Paul was doing here, showing the relationship of Christian living to some very practical areas of our lives.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we continue our series titled “The book of Colossians”
A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about When God's Word Dwells in You.
Several years ago a newspaper editor sent a letter to one hundred important men asking the one question, “Suppose you were sent to prison for three years and could take only three books with you. Which three would you choose?
Please state them is order of importance.”
Out of all the one hundred replies, ninety eight put the Bible first on their lists.
The Bible is an all time best seller.
The readers of the Bible have discovered that is not just a book of the month, it is a book of life, eternal, unchanging, ever dependable.
There is no reason, then, for surprise that the apostle Paul told the Colossian Christians to “let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.”
The Word of Christ could refer to Christ as the living Word.
For as John’s gospel points out, Christ is the eternally living Word.
But Paul could also have been referring to the written Word of God.
The words of Christ were being collected and circulated in that time.
Paul’s own words were gathered into the Bible, where they became the Word of God.
Colossians 3 focuses on Christian life.
Already we have given attention to some things that should be removed from, as well as some things that must be added to, the Christian life.
Under pinning it all is the fact that the Word of God should all the Christian’s life.
What happens when God’s word dwells in you?

Today we are talking about The Clothing of a Christian.
The apostle Paul was concerned about the Christian’s clothing.
In the verses just before this passages, he discussed what we call the garments of the ungodly.
There are certain desires, dispositions, and distinctions that we must strip off our lives.
Once we remove these things, however, what are we to put on?
Paul gave some positive suggestions.
Colossians 3:12 says to “clothe yourselves.”
Following are some things that could be classified as the clothing of a Christian.
These are things that we are to put on.
Note that they re not things we just naturally add to our lives.
They can come only to God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we begin a series on stewardship titled “What Giving Does For You.”
The Bible teaches the concept of stewardship, in which we are responsible to God for all that we are and have.
To truly be responsible, we must not only graciously receive, but we must generously give.
Today we are talking about The Stewardship of Life.
We are humbled when we realise that God has made us stewards of our lives and that we are responsible to Him.
Paul reminds us that we are not our own but have been bought with a price.
Life is God given.
Life is a charge from God.
Each of our lives have wonderful potential.
Let us be good stewards and glorify God.
Let us make the most of what God has given to us.
This morning let’s look at some of the principles involved in the stewardship of life.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we continue our series titled “The book of Colossians”
A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about The Garments of the Ungodly.
The early church had an interesting custom for baptism.
Whenever a person came out of the water after having been baptised, he or she would be given a new, clean, shining white robe.
This robe was symbolic of the new life that person now had with Christ.
New life in Christ demanded a new garment, a garment to match the demands of that life, clean, bright, shining.
This points up the truth that when you become a Christian there are certain garments, certain ways of life, that you can no longer wear.
Paul used strong words to show what Christians must do to these inferior and false ways of life.
In Colossians 3:5 he used the word “mortify,” “put to death.”
Then in verse 8 he used the words “put off.”
The Greek term for “put off” was used for taking off clothes, removing garments.
There are, then, certain garments of ungodly that Christians must take off.
As the apostle Paul so often did in his writings, he tied ethical demands to theological truths.
These clear cut demands are tied directly to our relationship with Christ, that Christians are raised with Christ, that we will set our minds on heavenly things, that we will share in the glory of Christ.
Since this is true, Christians must “put to death therefore what is earthly in you.”
Then, after the popular fashion of his time, Paul gave two lists, each of five vices that Christians must put to death.
These are the garments of the ungodly that must be removed from our lives.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we begin a series on stewardship titled “What Giving Does For You.”
The Bible teaches the concept of stewardship, in which we are responsible to God for all that we are and have.
To truly be responsible, we must not only graciously receive, but we must generously give.
Today we are talking about Thanks Be to God.
America has recently had their Thanksgiving holiday, but it is also a biblical principle.
The psalmist said in Psalm 119:62, “At midnight I will rise to give thanks to You.”
It has been said that, “A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues.”
Its also been said, “The worship most acceptable to God comes from a thankful and cheerful heart,”
Did you know that God has two dwelling places?
One in heaven, and the other in meek and thankful hearts.
Thanks be to God for the many blessings.
Let me mention a few today.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about a New Life With Christ.
Have you ever seen something that might be dangerous for a child or a family member and done something to distract them so they don’t get hurt?
This can be a way to get past the frightening and demoralising things in life, it is the explosive power of a new affection, love for Christ.
This is what Paul had in mind in this passage of Scripture.
In the preceding section, he had reminded us that we do not have to be subject to a long list of rules, regulations, and restrictions devised by men.
He concluded by saying in Colossians 2:23, “These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.”
If we cannot control or keep in check the indulgence of the flesh by observing certain regulations, how can we control it?
He answered that question at the beginning of Colossians 3:1, “If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above.”
We have a new life in Christ since we are risen with Christ.
We can divert our attention from the things of the world that would pull us away from Christ by setting our minds on the things that are above, the things of heavenly and eternal value.
Paul, then, was not satisfied with the negative statement.
He added the positive.
This is what we have with new life in Christ.

The Bible teaches the concept of stewardship, in which we are responsible to God for all that we are and have.
To truly be responsible, we must not only graciously receive, but we must generously give.
Today we are talking about What Giving Does For You.
Paul’s epistle to the Philippians has been called the epistle of joy.
He wrote from a prison cell to express his gratitude for their fellowship and partnership with him in the ministry of the gospel.
They had sent a gift to meet his needs, and this made it possible for him to concentrate on sharing the good news of God’s love even as a prisoner.
His bondage had served to advance the gospel I a difficult place.
Paul rejected any desire to receive a gift as such.
He was thinking more in terms of the benefit that giving brought to the hearts and lives of the givers.
Philippians 4:17 NKJV
17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your account.
Satan won a great victory when he set forth the idea that God was trying to impoverish us by teaching us to be givers.
The greatest need is our personal need to be givers.
Have you stopped to think about the benefits of being a generous giver to the point of giving above your tithe?

Today we are talking about Living With Thanks.
Many people are sitting on a fence.
To fall on one side is death, to fall on the other is life.
To live is to live a life with a sense of gratitude and obligation.
This expresses the Christian approach to living with thanks tonight.
Because we have found grace and forgiveness in Jesus Christ, all of life is lived as an expression of thanks and gratitude to God.
This is seen in the principle Paul stated in Colossians 2:6, “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,”
Living with thanks results in living closer to God.
We should live in thanks to God.

The conversion of the Philippine Jailer is the title of this evenings message.
The purpose of this message is to encourage all who are unsaved to be saved now.
In discussing this subject, five specific incidents involved in the jailers conversion will be used to assist us all to help an unsaved person to a conversation experience.

Today we are talking about Living for Treasures or Trash.
Have you ever been to an estate auction following a death when personal items were put up for sale?
This can be a sad and sobering experience.
Someone once said, “One person’s junk is another person’s treasure.”
While this may be true, we cannot help but observe that there is always a lot of junk when the average person passes away.
This should cause each of us to ask the question, “Am I living for trash? Will the values I live for have eternal significance?”
Today let us ask ourselves, “Am I living for true treasures or am I living for trash?”

A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about From Shadow to Reality.
Many today want the good life, they want it apart from a relationship with Jesus Christ.
It has been written.
Ethics without religion has little power to endure.
The French Revolution began by hitting the idealistic notes of liberty, equality, and community, but it was no deeper than idealism.
Its power for good was quickly exhausted, and uncontrolled violence broke out.
When man has no more than his own spirit to rely on, his goodness turns sour.
He needs divine support.
He will live most meaningfully when he responds to the goodness of God.
People want the results of religion without the discipline and commitment.
Paul cautioned the Colossian Christians against having this attitude.
He had just demonstrated how Christ had set them free by His death on the cross from all things that would enslave and destroy them.
But people were coming along behind Paul, teaching the people that there were certain matters of Jewish practice they had to keep, certain observances they had to maintain, certain ways of looking at life and religion they had to adopt.
Paul replied that these things were only shadows, the real thing was Christ.
We too are often tempted to take the shadow and pass up on the reality.
But we are to go from the shadow to the reality, to Christ.

“Great Conversions From The Book Of Acts” is our theme for the next four weeks.
Today we are talking about The Conversion of Saul of Tarsus.
The conversion of sinners is always a experience to see.
The person whose conversion experience is presented in this passage was one of the most unlikely prospects for Christianity ever known to humankind.
He was not only an unlikely prospect, but he also had one of the most dynamic conversion experiences of history.
And it turned out to be one of the most far reaching conversions in the history of Christendom.
His name was Saul.
This experience will be presented in three steps on the road to conversion.

Today we are continuing our series titled “The Main Emphasis of the Inspired Writers of the Gospels.”
The books of the New Testament contain the written testimony of inspired writers who knew who Jesus was and what He was trying to accomplish in the hearts and lives of people.
This teaching series is based on the first five books of the New Testament.
Today we are talking about The Triumphant Church.
The book of Acts records the thrilling story the growth and victories of the triumphant church.
From a handful of one hundred and twenty members in chapter 1, the infant church grew to three thousand in chapter 2.
By chapter 4 the church exploded to more than five thousand!
In the face of persecution and martyrdom, the church in Acts continued to march on like a mighty army.
The church’s archenemy, Saul of Tarsus, was conquered by the grace of God and became its greatest advocate.
On three missionary journeys, this convert to the Christian faith established churches from one end of the Roman Empire to the other.
For fifteen years, it seems that wherever Paul placed his foot, a New Testament church sprang up, Antioch, Ephesus, Philippi, Iconium, Lystra, Derbe, and even Rome.
The triumphant church is the theme that echoes throughout the twenty eight chapters of Acts.
This is the theme the church today needs to hear, so that it might be challenged to become the triumphant church in our time.

Today we are talking about A Well Of Wisdom.
We are confused.
We had thought there were absolute standards of right and wrong.
Now we hear there is a new morality, that all things are relative.
We had thought that God was the ground of all our existence.
Now we hear that God is dead.
Why has such confusion come about?
It is because we have listened to the philosophies of fallible humans.
We need some well of wisdom from which we can draw that will help us get our life back in focus.
We need to know someone who can point us to truth and help us order our lives.
This one is Christ.
He is our well of wisdom.

We all need to have firmly established in our minds that God loves us.
God wants the best for everyone’s life and thus constantly works to see that each person has an abundant life.
This life comes through a conversion experience.
The conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch gives us three factors in such an experience.

Today we are continuing our series titled “The Main Emphasis of the Inspired Writers of the Gospels.”
The books of the New Testament contain the written testimony of inspired writers who knew who Jesus was and what He was trying to accomplish in the hearts and lives of people.
This teaching series is based on the first five books of the New Testament.
Today we are talking about The Simply Divine!
More than ninety percent of the Gospel of John is not found in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, or Luke.
Out of his vast storehouse, John chose to record incidents, “signs,” and conversations that would convince the world that Jesus is “simply divine.”
Consequently, John’s gospel has no account of the birth of Christ, His baptism, nor His temptations.
It tells nothing of the Last Supper, nothing of Gethsemane, and nothing of Christ’s ascension.
It records not one experience of Christ’s healing of people possessed by demons.
Perhaps most surprising of all, it contains none of the parables or our Lord.
Although John’s gospel says nothing about any of these events that hold so prominent a place in the other three gospels, it has everything to say about Christ’s deity!
In fact, so concerned is John that we know Jesus is divine that the opening statement go his gospel is an assertion of Jesus’ deity.
John 1:1-3 NKJV
The Eternal Word
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
The Gospel of John presents the personal recollections of an old man who knew and loved and revered his Lord.
It throbs with life and colour.
With dramatic power and attention to details, John produced a never to be forgotten picture of Christ as “simply divine.”
The theme of the deity of Christ runs throughout the whole of this gospel.

These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about The Marks of Faithfulness.
When we list the characteristics that are desirable in a person, we usually mention faithfulness.
One of the desires Paul had for the Colossian Christians was faithfulness.
Paul had just drawn the picture of the cosmic significance of Christ and the world mission of Christianity in Colossians 1.
Now, with personal abandon, Paul, himself a part of this mission, applied his concern to the Colossians.
He said, “I want you to knowhow hard I am contending for you.”
This was not some general, vague concern.
It was specific.
It was aimed at some specific problem and some specific person.
Paul was concerned with the issues but more so with the people involved.
We see this in his prayer for faithfulness in the church.
In his prayer we can see some marks of faithfulness.

You will notice that the title of this message refers to the receiving the Word.
The text tells what happens when the Word is received.
The Word that was received was the message preached by Simon Peter and is recorded in Acts 2:14-36.
The description of what happened as a result of receiving the Word is found in Acts 2:37-47.
These results will be considered this evening under two headings.

These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about An Open Secret.
The world of New Testament times was not a nonreligious world.
In fact, it was saturated with religion.
We could say that it was long on religion but short on revelation.
For many people, the old religions of Greece and Rome had lost their shine, and Judaism had hardened into legalism and exclusivism.
People were hungry and searching for a religion that would satisfy their lives and fill their souls.
The fullness of God’s revelation was not known until God became man in Jesus Christ.
But now this revelation has been unveiled, now this mystery has been made known, now this secret has been let out.
In English, mystery usually means something that is baffling and defies solution or understanding.
But to the Greeks it meant something that once had been hidden but now had been revealed, a revealed secret.
The glorious message of God to us through Paul is that this secret has now been made known, and not only to a few, but to everyone.
It was an open secret.
And what is that open secret?
It is “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
All people can know Christ.
Everyone can know the fullness of God’s revelation.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our new sermon series is titled “Facing the Stresses of Life with Faith.”
The great spiritual giants of the past were not immune from the problems that plague us in the present day.
They faced life with faith in a God who is at work to bring out good in everything that happens.
Today we are talking about Lessons Learned in the School of Life.
How many of us went to university?
And how many of us received our education in the school of life, majoring in hard knocks?
In the Old Testament there is the story of a prophet who got his education in the school of life.
He too majored in hard knocks.
His name was Hosea.
The prophet’s marriage to a prostitute named Gomer marked the beginning of his education.
Hosea 1:2-3, When the Lord began to speak by Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea: “Go, take yourself a wife of harlotry And children of harlotry,
For the land has committed great harlotry By departing from the Lord.”
So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
The inevitable result was domestic tragedy.
Three children were born in Hosea’s home, but he had a suspicion that the last child did not belong to him.
Amid the domestic tragedy, Hosea applied his situation to the Lord’s work with Israel.
God married Israel, and Israel was unfaithful to the Lord.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we continue our series titled “The book of Colossians”
A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about The Absolute Supremacy of Jesus Christ.
We are always interested in finding the best.
The one who has supremacy in their field.
Above all this the One who is absolutely supreme is Jesus Christ.
Paul turned from prayer to the magnificent presentation of the preeminence of Christ.
The Colossian heretics had degraded Christ.
They had indicated that He was not unique but just one among many manifestations of God.
They believed that all matter was evil, and therefore Jesus did not have a real manhood.
In the face of this, Paul see out the absolute supremacy of Jesus Christ.
Christianity stands or falls on the fact of the person of Jesus Christ.
Either He is what we have believed, the unique Son of God, or else a gigantic hoax has taken place.
These verses that interrupted a prayer with a presentation bear out that Jesus is what we have believed Him to be, the unique Son of God who has absolute supremacy.

Our new sermon series is titled “Facing the Stresses of Life with Faith.”
The great spiritual giant of the past were not immune from the problems that plague us in the present day.
They faced life with faith in a God who is at work to bring out good in everything that happens.
Today we are talking about The Problem of Suffering.
Job is the book in the Bible that deals directly with the agonising problems of human suffering.
The story of Job hits people where they live, therefore insights into the story of Job will interest people.
The story of Job is an ancient one.
Some say that Job lived during the age of the Patriarchs.
More than likely the book of Job was written during a time in Judah’s national suffering.
The story of Job gives us several insights for living in our own time.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Main Emphasis of the Inspired Writers of the Gospels.”
The books of the New Testament contain the written testimony of inspired writers who knew who Jesus was and what He was trying to accomplish in the hearts and lives of people.
This teaching series is based on the first five books of the New Testament.
Today we are talking about The Joy Of Unselfish Service.
Where the primary emphasis of the Gospel of Matthew is the Messiahship of Christ, the primary emphasis of Mark is the servanthood of Christ.
And how quickly Mark moved to the central theme!
In eight brief verses, he passed over thirty years of our Lord’s life.
In seven more verses, Mark recorded the baptism and temptation experiences of Christ.
By verse 16 Jesus was busy recruiting disciples.
Then Mark quickly moved to his first recorded act of Christ’s unselfish service.
Before Mark concluded his first chapter, he had reported four miracles and cast Christ into the role of an unselfish servant.
Jesus was perfectly cast for this role.
It required no acting or dramatics on His part, He was simply being Himself, a servant of all.
Seeing Christ through the eyes of Mark as a servant of all, we will discover the “Joy of unselfish service.”

These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about A Prayer for the Knowledge of God's Will.
The will of God is a phrase that we use often.
Its use ranges from a statement of resignation, like “It was the will of God that this accident happened” to a statement of resolve, like, “It is the will of God that I enter the ministry.”
For most of us, it is much easier to talk about the will of God than it is to find the will of God.
As we search for God’s will in our lives and activities, we have to use the best of our spiritual faculties and perceptions as well as a great deal of prayer and much searching of the Scriptures.
It comes as no surprise, then that Paul prayed that the Colossian Christians should have a knowledge of God’s will.
Using the familiar pattern of Paul’s letters, the greeting is followed by a prayer, a prayer that these people might have a knowledge of God’s will.
That is a good prayer for us too.

Today we are talking about A Cure Depression.
Mood changes are a problem for many people.
Sometimes we are in a good mood, and other times we are in a bad mood.
The low mood is often called depression.
In 2020 a record number of people in America were being treated with pharmaceuticals for depression, and suicided reached an all time high.
Im sure the numbers would be similar here in Australia.
Elijah suffered from an acute case of depression immediately after a high religious experience.
The prophets of Baal had increased in number because Jezebel, the wife of Ahab, permitted the worship of Baal when she moved to Israel.
Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal at Mount Carmel.
The contest was was an interesting and exciting one.
The challenge was for the authentic God to consume the offering with fire.
The prophets of Baal called to their god, but he could not answer, for he was a false god.
Elijah called to the Lord, and He rained down fire, consuming the sacrifice.
Elijah came out out a winner.
But his happiness was marred by Jezabel’s threat on his life.
His high spirits were short lived.
He immediately got alone and developed a low spirit.
1 Kings 19:4, But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”
In this mood the Lord ministered to him.
From this ministry we may learn a cure for depression.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we are starting a new series titled “The Main Emphasis of the Inspired Writers of the Gospels.”
The books of the New Testament contain the written testimony of inspired writers who knew who Jesus was and what He was trying to accomplish in the hearts and lives of people.
This teaching series is based on the first five books of the New Testament.
Today we are talking about When Dreams Come True.
For the next few weeks we will be taking a tour through the Gospels and the book of Acts.
Our purpose is to stress the main emphasis of each of these books so that we may grasp the continuity the entire gospel accountant also learn the central message of each book.
We will devote one sermon to each of these five books.
Today we begin with the Gospel of Matthew, whose central message is the messiahship of Christ and thus the basis for today’s title “When dreams come true.”
Dreams really do come true!
The Gospel of Matthew is written to prove it.
For ages Israel dreamed of the day the the Messiah would come, the kingdom would be built, and the future made secure.
At long last that dream did come true through the birth of Jesus Christ.
To prove that Jesus is the Messiah, that Israel’s dream did come true in fulfilment of all the the prophecies of old, Matthew records no less than twenty miracles of our Lord.
He is saying about the coming of Jesus the Messiah, “Dreams really do come true!”

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we start a new series titled “The book of Colossians”
A devotional study of the Bible, chapter by chapter and verse by verse, has the potential for bringing great blessings into the lives of those who participate.
These messages from Colossians will take us from now through to the end of the year on Thursday nights.
Today we are talking about The Foundation For Life.
The world is going through a tough time.
Many people are questioning the very foundation of life.
The letter to the Colossian church was also written in a time of turmoil.
The whole first century world was facing the turmoil of faith and the facts of life under Roman domination.
The church was also in turmoil.
Teachers had infiltrated the Colossian church with doctrines that threatened their understanding of the original gospel message.
Specifically, the church was threatened by the teaching known as Gnosticism.
Thus, in his letter to the Colossians, Paul argued for both the supremacy and the sufficiency of Jesus Christ.
As we look at the foundation for life, we can recognise three irreducible elements of the Christian life, faith, hope, and love.
These are the foundations for life.
And these Paul enumerated in his opening remarks to the Colossian Christians.

Today we are talking about A Man Of Faith.
When we think of Abraham, we may associate him with faith.
Abraham was the father of the multitude who would trust the Lord.
Abraham found purpose in life by means of his faith experience.
Faith brought him new adventures and brought him through numerous hardships.
Tonight lets look into Abraham’s life and discover the various aspects of faith.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Joy of Being a Giver.”
The fun of receiving is so great that many people never really experience the joy of being givers.
Jesus taught that we are to be givers if we are to find the true joy of living.
Today we are talking about Give The Gift of Affirmation.
Jesus came into the world to give away something more valuable than anything else on earth.
He came bringing the rich gifts of God to the hearts and lives of all humankind.
He gave the gift of forgiveness and the gift of a new life.
He gave the gift of encouragement and the gift of truth.
He also encourages He followers to be givers of great gifts.
If we wait until we can give large amounts of money, we will never become the givers that our Lord would have us to be.
Today let us look at the possibility of giving the gift of affirmation others.
John’s gospel declares in John 3:17, For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
Jesus did not come into the world to be a critic, He came to be our Saviour.
To accomplish this task, He affirmed the worth of individuals in a way that attracted them to Him and caused them to listen to Him.
You and I can also give this priceless treasure to those around us.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we start a new series titled “Warnings From The Past” based on incidents in the lives of men who lived in the very dawn of redemptive history.
These biographical messages speak to the needs of today.
Today we are talking about Blurred Vision.
Millions of people worldwide have sight problems.
Over fifty percent of Australians over the age of thirty wear glasses.
Many sight problems exist, nearsightedness, long sightedness, blurred vision, tunnel vision, and numerous other difficulties.
Lot is a character in the Bible with a sight problem that could be diagnosed as blurred vision.
We read in Genesis 13:10, Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.
Abraham’s and Lot’s flocks grade together until trouble emerged between their herdsmen.
Abraham wisely chose to end the conflict by urging Lot to choose a seperate land.
Lot looked at the Jordan Valley near Sodom and saw the grazing promises of the valley but failed to see the evil influences of the Sodomites.
We, too, may suffer with blurred vision.
We need the help of the Holy Spirit to discern God’s will when we have decisions to make.
Today let’s observe Lot’s visual problems.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our new sermon series is titled “The Adequacy of Jesus Christ.”
As God promised to be adequate to meet the needs of Moses and the children of Israel, so to Jesus also claimed divine adequacy.
The great “I Am’s” of the Gospel of John are the texts we will be working through for these messages.
Today we are talking about I Am The True Vine.
Although most people were not vineyard keepers, they were familiar with the line of work.
In this environment Jesus made His last great “I am” statement.
“I am the true vine.” He said, “and My Father is the gardener.”
Vines grow on terraces and require a lot of attention.
A young vine was not allowed to bear fruit within the first three years.
It was pruned drastically to develop a strong root system.
Even after the vine began to bear grapes, it was still pruned, because some branches would produce fruit while others only sapped the vine and its strength and productivity.
In this setting Jesus gave a dramatic lesson about those who claimed to be followers of God.
Jesus is the only true vine, His Father is the gardener, and we are the branches.
Let us look at each of these statements and see what truth they have for us.

Today we are continuing our series titled “The Joy of Being a Giver.”
The fun of receiving is so great that many people never really experience the joy of being givers.
Jesus taught that we are to be givers if we are to find the true joy of living.
Today we are talking about The Gift Of Your Personal Testimony.
On festive occasions we often go home to those we love, bearing gifts.
We give gifts on birthdays, anniversaries, and weddings.
At Christmas time we do more giving and receiving than at any other time of the year.
But we should be busily engaged 365 days of the year in giving the great gifts that are within our power to give.
We have the necessity of giving the gift of encouragement and have considered the importance of giving the gift of forgiveness.
Today let us recognise the valuable opportunity of giving to those around us the gift of our personal testimony.
It is interesting to note in our text that our Lord declined to grant the request of the man out of whom the demons had been driven.
The man requested the privilege of accompanying Jesus and His disciples.
Instead, our Lord wanted him to go home and give to his family and friends the greta gift of his personal testimony concerning what God had done in his life.
These three rules also apply when it comes to giving our Christian testimony.
We must know something, say something, and be somebody.
We must practice our personal Christianity to the extent that when we give a verbal testimony, it will have weight.
When Jesus said, “You shall be My witnesses,” He was saying, “You must go and give the gift of your personal testimony.”
Paul declared to the Romans that faith comes by hearing.

But He reminded them that they knew where He was going.
Thomas interrupted Jesus to ask, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”
To this Jesus answered with our selected text and made three statements about Himself.

The fun of receiving is so great that many people never really experience the joy of being givers.
Jesus taught that we are to be givers if we are to find the true joy of living.
Today we are talking about The Gift Of Encouragement.
God is the great giver.
Every good gift and every perfect gift comes through Him.
God so loved a needy and sinful world that He gave His Son, Jesus Christ, for us.
Jesus came into the world as the servant of God and as the giver of the gifts of God.
Jesus taught His disciples to be unselfish servants who would define their purpose for being in terms of giving.
To His apostles He said in Matthew 10:8, Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
You do not need silver and gold to be this kind of giver.
God has given many rich gifts to His church for the good of the body.
Significantly, when Paul gave us a list of the gifts of God, encouragement was among them.

Today we are talking about The Best Exercise.
Diet and exercise are important to people today.
Look online at at magazines and you will notice a large number of articles focussed on diet and exercise.
Articles like this sell magazines because people want to know the newest trends in exercise and the fastest ways to lose weight and tone up.
A man early in Bible times found the best exercise, walking with God.
Genesis 5:24 says, “Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.”
The word translated “walk” is a Hebrew expression that means to live according to God’s lifestyle.
Today let’s have a look and examine the characteristics of walking with God.

The great “I Am’s” of the Gospel of John are the texts we will be working through for these messages.
Today we are talking about I Am The Resurrection.
Some scholars have estimated that in the gospel accounts we have only fifty days of the earthly life of Jesus.
Fifty days out of approximately thirty three years is not very much.
Therefore we do not have a lot of knowledge about some of the lives of some of the people whom Jesus knew.
However, in the case of Mary, Martha, and their brother Lazarus, the gospel writers provide a number of intimate and personal details.
In John’s account of the resurrection of Lazarus, he said that Jesus loved Martha, and her sister and Lazarus.
Nowhere in the Gospels does Jesus directly say to anyone, “I love you.”
This is not to say that He never said that, it only points out that the phrase never appears.
Yet people knew Jesus loved them, and Jesus loved these three friends of His.
When He heard that Lazarus was ill, Jesus arrived at their home in Bethany to call Lazarus back from the dead.
It was during the performance of this miracle that Jesus pointed out to Martha that He had power over death.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we are starting a new series titled “The Joy of Being a Giver.”
The fun of receiving is so great that many people never really experience the joy of being givers.
Jesus taught that we are to be givers if we are to find the true joy of living.
Today we are talking about The Gift Of Forgiveness.
Jesus taught His disciples on many occasions to be givers.
He said in Matthew 10:8, Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
Luke’s gospel encourages us, in Luke 6:38, Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”
Jesus is also quoted in Acts 20:35, as having declared, I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
Some great gifts each of us need to give do not require that we be materially wealthy.
Today let us consider giving the rich gift of forgiveness to others.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we start a new series titled “Warnings From The Past” based on incidents in the lives of men who lived in the very dawn of redemptive history.
These biographical messages speak to the needs of today.
Today we are talking about A Rupture of a Relationship.
The story of Cain and Abel represents two people who had a ruptured relationship.
Actually, they should have had a close relationship, they were brothers.
According to the Genesis record, sin separated man from his fellow man.
Sin is not just personal.
It is interpersonal, marring basic human relationships and causing tragic conflicts between people who ought to be close to each other.
Let us look at the life of Cain and discover some reasons why his relationship was ruptured with Abel.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our new sermon series is titled “The Adequacy of Jesus Christ.”
As God promised to be adequate to meet the needs of Moses and the children of Israel, so to Jesus also claimed divine adequacy.
The great “I Am’s” of the Gospel of John are the texts we will be working through for these messages.
Today we are talking about I Am The Good Shepherd.
The shepherd’s life was not to be envied.
It was hard and constant.
Paid holidays were unheard of.
The shepherd’s workweek was twenty four hours a day seven days a week.
He faced the elements of nature in all their fury.
He endured the dangers of thieves, poachers, and wild beasts.
Because there was little grass, he was bound to lead the sheep in a constant search of food.
Veterinary skills were also part of his trade.
Many who listened to Jesus were well aquatinted with the life of a shepherd, so He used their knowledge of the shepherd and the sheep to illustrate His own relation to God’s true believers.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about We Need Both The Old and The New.
When Jesus finished the series of parables found in Matthew 13, He added in one summary.
He inquired as to how much of what He had been saying was actually comprehended by His listeners.
To His question as to whether or not His disciples understood all of these things, they immediately replied. In Matthew 13:51 “Yes.”
Whether or not they actually did, we do not know.
In all probability they had caught something of His message, but there was much more to it than they realised.
Jesus did not debate with them any more than He did with the rich young ruler who insisted that he had kept all the commandments from his youth.
Instead, Jesus went on to make a point that He felt was significant.

These biographical messages speak to the needs of today.
Today we are talking about A First Worship Service.
Genesis is a book of beginnings.
The fourth chapter has a record of man’s first experience in worship.
Abel knew how to worship.
The acceptability of Abel’s offering revolved around his attitude.
Abel chose the “firstlings,” which means the best.
Believers in today’s world need to learn how to worship.
Today let’s have a look at the attitudes that make worship acceptable.

The great “I Am’s” of the Gospel of John are the texts we will be working through for these messages.
Today we are talking about I Am The Gate For The Sheep.
Doors are necessary for any enclosure.
Some doors are elaborate and some are simple.
Some are ornate and intricate, while others are plain and simply functional.
Doors and gates have been made from almost every known material, stone, wood, glass, metals, bamboo, plastic, and many others.
Doors have handles, hinges, removable panels or screens, some have door knockers, peepholes, and locks.
And there are various kinds of doors, screen doors, storm doors, front doors, back doors, side doors, garage doors, gates, as well as doors for rooms, wardrobes, cupboards, and cars.
The familiarity of this door idea is exactly what Jesus had in mind when He told His followers, “I am the door of the sheepfold.”
Building on all we know about doors and their function, we can readily see what Jesus was trying to say about Himself and God’s kingdom.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
This week we continue our study focusing on Paul’s letter to the Corinthians.
Today we are talking about Concerning The Collection.
In both the Old and New Testaments, we find that God is concerned about the collection.
Failure to follow the Scriptural plan for money and provide for the Lord’s work brings on chaos.
Every Christian, whether a pastor or some other church worker, should be interested in the offering.
Six ideas are mentioned in this passage that each follower of Christ needs to grasp.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Church.
Our new sermon series is titled “Jesus Came Preaching”.
What did He preach about?
Over the coming few weeks we are going to look at some of the Scriptures and the great subjects on which He taught.
Today we are talking about I Am The Light of the World.
The world of light can be divided into artificial light and natural light.
Artificial light derives energy from a manufactured source, light bulbs, torches, lanterns, lamps, and heaters are powered by various energy sources.
Some natural lights are our sun, stars, and lightning.
Their light sources are found within themselves.
Artificial and natural light can also be found in the spiritual world.
Many kinds of artificial spiritual light have their source in something other than themselves, but there is only one natural spiritual Light, which has its own source of energy.
That Light is Jesus, and His light dispels darkness.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about God's Kingdom Excludes Only The Unbeliever.
This parable has a close connection with the parable of the wheat and the tares.
In both, the thought is put forward that we will know the difference between the genuine Christian and the one who merely claims to be a Christian when our Lord makes the distinction at the end of the time as we know it.
Both parables should teach us patience in dealing with people and tolerance concerning those who do not share the conviction we hold.
Let the master decide who the counterfeit people are, who are Christians but may be wrong on certain points, and who are the genuinely devoted Christians who understand the will of God.
Indeed, can any of us be bold and boastful enough to claim infallibility in discerning the truths of God and sinless in implementing His commandments?

Who doesn’t love the smell of freshly baked bread?
When the local bakery is baking you can smell the aroma of freshly baked goodness a long way off.
As great as freshly baked bread is, Jesus offers something even greater.
Jesus begins the “I Am” statements in John by declaring, “I Am the bread of life.”
His statement is uttered after feeding the five thousand, when they came seeking Him to feed them again.

In Jesus’ day pearls were highly valued.
Jewish writers in Old Testament days spoke of the pearl as being “beyond price.”
Merchants looked the world over for beautiful pearls, and new stories were always circulating about the “greatest pearl of all.”
In Jesus’ story a man finds it.

Today we are talking about To Be a Christian Is Worth More Than EveryThing Else.
The kingdom of God is both personal and social.
The parables we have studied so far have emphasised the universal aspect of kingdom, setting forth its growth and development in the world.
This parable and the one following stress the value of God’s kingdom to the individual.

Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached about Property.
The theme for this message is practical not academic.
It deals with the problem of a Christian’s acquisition and use of material things.
The basic relationship in life is our relationship to God.
The person who is right with God then asks, “What, Father, is Your will with reference to my relationship to others and to myself?”
This response immediately involves our relationship to property.
What did Jesus preach about property?

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about Silent Forces Are Often the Strongest.
Jesus turned to everyday life in Galilee in order to illustrate the kingdom of God.
Smaller towns and villages had no bakeries, women had to make bread in their homes.
Jesus had, no doubt, often seen His mother use leaven, Gough that had been kept from previous baking and had fermented.
When the leaven was mixed into a new batch of dough, it changed the characteristics of the dough, that is, the dough rose and made full loaves of bread when baked.
Jesus observed that just as leaven changes the dough into which it is mixed, God’s kingdom likewise changes everything with which it comes into contact.

This chapter is one of his masterpieces.
It is on the greatest of all themes, love.

Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached About His Kingdom.
The terms kingdom of God and kingdom of heaven were often on Jesus’ lips.
He used them interchangeably in the parables as recorded in the Gospels.
The ancient Jews were very careful about saying “God” lest by pronouncing the name they might profane it.
Even today we hear some people pray, “May heaven grant,” when of course they mean “May God who is in heaven grant.”
The gospel of the kingdom was the very heart of the Lord’s preaching.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are continuing our series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about Whatever Happens, God's Work Will Go On.
No one really understands the mystery of growth.
How does a seed change into a flower?
In this parable of the mustard seed, Jesus said that the kingdom of God, like a seed, contains spontaneity and divine vitality, the inherent forces of a life that can fashion its own self.
This parable is one of the simplest, yet it contains one of the most profound messages.
No one can ever predict how big something will grow.
We should never “despise the day of small things,” because God has a way of multiplying our small efforts and giving us massive results.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Tonight we continue our sermon series is titled “Jesus Came Preaching”.
What did He preach about?
Over the coming few weeks we are going to look at some of the Scriptures and the great subjects on which He taught.
Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached About Salvation.
The most important consideration for every person is, Am I saved?
Is my heart right with God?
Am I justified?
Do I know deep down in my heart I am a child of God?
Have I found the peace that passes understanding?
Have I found the way to quite an accusing conscience?
How good is it to get right with God!

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are starting a new series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about Only God Knows, and He's Not Telling.
Have you heard the old saying, “If God is God, He’s not good. And if He’s good, He’s not God.” If these words seen to apply anywhere in the Bible, its here!
Although written differently in this parable, the endless question is echoed, “Why doesn’t God do something about all the evil in the world?”
As after the first parable, the parable of the sower, the disciples needed Jesus to explain the meaning.
Jesus readily obliged them.
In fact, He did something that we hesitate to do in explaining parables.
He gave multiple identifications, listing six people or things with symbolic meanings.
This parable borders on a hidden meaning.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This week we continue our study focusing on Paul’s letter to the Corinthians.
Today we are talking about Spiritual Gifts.
The Bible clearly shows us that God always endows enough people with the necessary gifts to carry on His work.
If everyone would do his or her part, there would never be a shortage of workers in any area of kingdom work.
In this message we will consider the gifts the Spirit gives.

Over the coming few weeks we are going to look at some of the Scriptures and the great subjects on which He taught.
Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached about Sin.
Jesus’ teaching about sin must be seen in its true perspective against His concept of God as goodness and light.
Jesus’ goal is for all people to become children of God in holy, happy fellowship.
Sin is any person’s lack of conformity with God’s holy will.

Today we are starting a new series titled “The Master speaks to us today through the Parables,” these teachings are based on Jesus’ parables that describe the nature of the kingdom of God.
Today we are talking about How Well Do you Hear?
Although this Scripture passage is often called the parable of the sower, perhaps a more accurate title would be the parable of the four kinds of ground, or the parable of the soils.
Jesus began with an urgent call for the disciples to listen.
He concluded with a challenge that those who have ears should hear.
We need to realise that hearing is important.

Today we are talking about Examining Ourselves.
There is a great need in every person’s life for a close personal examination of self.
This is true in our social, academic, and business life, but especially in our spiritual life.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our new sermon series is titled “Jesus Came Preaching”.
What did He preach about?
Over the coming few weeks we are going to look at some of the Scriptures and the great subjects on which He taught.
Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached About His Church.
More than one hundred times in the Gospels Jesus is reported as using the terms, kingdom, kingdom of God, or kingdom of heaven.
On only two occasions is He reported as using the word church, namely, in Matthew 16:18 and 18:17.
The added light thrown on the nature and purpose of the church by Acts and the Epistles is doubtless a fulfilment of Jesus’ promise.
The purpose of this message, however, is confined to “What Jesus Preached about His Church.”

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This week we continue our study focusing on Paul’s letter to the Corinthians.
Today we are talking about The Importance of the Lord’s Supper.
For every Christian body the observance of the Lord’s Supper is a worshipful experience.
Different denominations use different terms to describe it, but for all it is worship.
The church at Corinth, like many contemporary churches, abused the ordinance.
That is the context of our Scriptures today.

Today we are talking about What Jesus Preached About His Death.
Records of Jesus’ death and related events take up between a quarter and a third of the space in the Gospels.
This shows how important His death seemed to the writers.
Paul gave a lot of space to the death of Christ.
What place did Jesus’ own death hold in His own mind?

A great underlying principle that runs throughout the Bible is that of seeking good for our neighbour. This is basically what Jesus meant when He said that one who saves his life shall lose it, but the one who loses his life for the sake of the gospel shall find it.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we start a new series titled The Spiritual Struggle for the Renewal of the Church.
We need to cooperate with the Father God, who would prune out those branches, attitudes, ambitions, and actions that are counter productive, so that the church might bear much fruit.
Today we are talking about What You Believe Matters.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
To begin the new year we are kicking off with messages that are evangelistic in both object and nature.
“The Answer to Eternity’s Most Important Questions” is the theme for this series.
Today we are talking about How Can We Know God.
The majority of Australians believe in God, perhaps not as many as once did but we are still a Christian nation.
Many believe that Jesus Christ is the divine Son of God.
This raises the question as to how we know there is a God.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Somethings in life are optional while other things are essential.
During this series titled “Great Imperatives for Effective Living” we will look at some of the essentials.
We will then change our focus a bit to Paul’s letter to the Philippians and “Great Imperatives for Christian Living.”
Today we are discussing An Imperative Regarding the Negative and the Positive.
For those that are unsure what an imperative is, it means, an essential or urgent thing.
Text
Romans 12:2 (AMP)
2 And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Many people think of stewardship only in terms of offerings for some worthy cause.
The principle of stewardship applies to every area of life.
“Taking the Stew out of stewardship” is the theme for next few Sunday mornings.
Today we are talking about The Stewardship of Time.

Today we are discussing When Discouragement Comes.
Nothing hurts so badly as having excitement suddenly affected by disappointment.
Moses knew the hurt of disappointment.
Soon after he settled the matter of God’s call to him and of his negative attitude, he went to Pharaoh.

The first priority for any person is to be right with God.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
The Old Testament prophets were spokesmen for for their generation more than the future.
They were the proclaimers of timeless truths about God, humankind, and the critical issues of life.
“The Modern Message of the Minor prophets” is the theme for Sunday mornings for the coming months.
Today we are talking about Doing God's Will, Not Ours.
Since Jonah’s prophecy was favourable to Jeroboam, he must have been a popular prophet at first.
Perhaps he had a large following and that’s why he was reluctant to go to Nineveh with a message of God’s judgement.

Introduction
Jesus’ experience with His disciples at Caesarea Philippi marked a distinct turning point in His ministry.
He was obviously pleased with Peter’s confession of faith in Him as the Christ, the Son of the living God in Matthew 16:16, and looked forward to the continued, triumphant growth of His church.

Introduction
The last prophetic voice in Israel before John the Baptist and Jesus was Malachi.
He actually lived after the golden age of prophecy had started to wane, but his insights equaled, and in some cases, exceeded anything to be found in the messages of his predecessors.

Have you ever been to a conference or meeting and there is an activity where you have to introduce yourself?
Have you thought about how difficult it can be?
What do you say about yourself?
You don’t want to say too much, but you want to say enough.

Today we are talking about A Beatitude For Simon Peter.
Introduction
About two years had passed since Jesus had chosen His apostles.
Only a little more than six months remained before His crucifixion.
Our Lord needed to intensify His efforts to prepare the apostles for that event.
After Jesus refused to become a king, great multitudes of His disciples turned away and opposition against Him increased.

Peter knew what it meant to be under pressure, and he wrote to people who were under the pressure of persecution.
His book speaks to the personal needs of God’s people today.
Today we are talking about A Call To Christian Living.
A Call To Christian Living.
A call to Christian living is always in order.
The ground of the appeal is the example of Christ.
“Therefore, since Christ suffered in the flesh…”

However Habakkuk, like Jeremiah, dared to ask “why?” In regard to some phases of the Lord’s work.

One of the greatest tragedies of life is the inability or the neglect of a father to pass on to his children the benefits of his experience.
Fathers must instruct, warn, and encourage their children.
For the next while Wednesday evenings messages will be from John’s first epistle and are titled “The Counsel of a Spiritual Father to His Children.”
Today we are discussing That You May Know.
Text
1 John 5:13 (AMP)
This Is Written That You May Know
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God [which represents all that Jesus Christ is and does], so that you will know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have eternal life.

Christians are to be in the world but not of it.
Jesus refused to pray that His disciples should be removed from the world.
John 17:15 (AMP)
15 I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but that You keep them and protect them from the evil one.
The world needs Christians look at Matthew 5:13-16, and the Christian probably needs the world.
Peter addressed his Christian readers as “strangers and pilgrims.”

Everyone knows which prophet is connected with a “great fish”.
Jonah!
But do you know who is connected with a plague of locusts?
Joel!
Joel was one of the earliest prophets to Israel.
Joel was preaching at a time when the land was strongly influenced by priests.
He often referred to religious rituals and matters associated with formal worship.
His book begins with a description of various disasters that had come on the land.
He then used a solemn call to repentance.

Fathers must instruct, warn, and encourage their children.
For the next while Wednesday evenings messages will be from John’s first epistle and are titled “The Counsel of a Spiritual Father to His Children.”
Today we are discussing Family Traits.
Text
1 John 3:2 (AMP)
2 Beloved, we are [even here and] now children of God, and it is not yet made clear what we will be [after His coming]. We know that when He comes and is revealed, we will [as His children] be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is [in all His glory].
Introduction
In our text, John was talking about spiritual family traits.
When we are born again, we receive a new life, not a biological life, but a spiritual life.
And just as your biological life is “programmed” into our genes, so our spiritual life is predetermined by God to produce certain characteristics.
For example, Paul said in Romans 8:29 (AMP)
29 For those whom He foreknew [and loved and chose beforehand], He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son [and ultimately share in His complete sanctification], so that He would be the firstborn [the most beloved and honored] among many believers.
However, just as in the physical growth process certain things such as illness or injury can change one’s hereditary development, so in the spiritual realm disobedience and sin can cause us to slow down or even abort the spiritual growth that God desires us to experience.
Throughout the New Testament, we find many passages that remind us of the spiritual family traits we should develop in our lives.
John revealed four things about these spiritual family traits that God programmed into us when we were born again.

Introduction
Just as a lake relects an image, Peter’s writings reflect his experience.
Peter had lost face but not faith with his denials of his Lord.
Jesus, true to His promise, had kept Peter from satan.
Peter is now busy strengthening the brethren.
Luke 21:31-32 (AMP)
31 So you too, when you see these things happening, know [without any doubt] that the kingdom of God is near.
32 I assure you and most solemnly say to you, this generation [those living at that definite period of time preceding the second coming] will not pass away until everything takes place.

Text
Hosea 14:4 (AMP)
4 I will heal their apostasy and faithlessness;
I will love them freely,
For My anger has turned away from Israel.
Introduction
An Old Testament scholar once said, “Hosea picked up where Amos left off.”
By this he meant that Amos was a stern preacher of righteousness, but Hosea saw beyond God’s stern demands to His mercy and grace.
We have all heard ministers preach on God’s demand for holiness in life, and the standards are high.
But what if we cant do these things?
What if we are weak?
Is there any hope?
The book of Hosea says that there is hope.

God's People Have a Living Hope
Introduction
Hope, along with faith and love, is one of the three personal graces of a Christian.
1 Corinthians 13:13 (AMP)
13 And now there remain: faith [abiding trust in God and His promises], hope [confident expectation of eternal salvation], love [unselfish love for others growing out of God’s love for me], these three [the choicest graces]; but the greatest of these is love.
Peter had experienced the death of hope when Jesus was crucified and the renewal of hope when Jesus was resurrected.

Today we are discussing Counterfeit Christianity: What Is It?
Text
1 John 2:16 (AMP)
16 For all that is in the world—the lust and sensual craving of the flesh and the lust and longing of the eyes and the boastful pride of life [pretentious confidence in one’s resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father, but are from the world.
One of the most distasteful and unpleasant words in the human vocabulary has to be the word counterfeit.
We usually think of things being counterfeit as something being purposely designed to deceive.
Even more devious than those selling counterfeits in the market place, are those guilty of counterfeiting in the spiritual realm.
The tragedy connected with this kind of counterfeiting is that many times those involved are victims rather than agents!
Satan is the master counterfeiter of all time.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
From the days when Adam and Eve were driven from the garden, people have been in need of a mediator who could bring them back to God.
Jesus Christ is the one Mediator between God and Man.
This week we are continuing our series on Sunday nights titled “Jesus Christ as Our High Priest.”
The book of Hebrews isn’t the most popular book in the New Testament.
In many respects it is neglected.
The Jewish, or Old Testament, back ground that permeates every chapter has probably contributed to its neglect by many pastors.
The book of Hebrews portrays an exalted concept of Jesus Christ.
This week we are talking about,
The Word of Exhortation
Text
Hebrews 13:20-21 (AMP)
Benediction
20 Now may the God of peace [the source of serenity and spiritual well-being] who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood that sealed and ratified the eternal covenant,
21 equip you with every good thing to carry out His will and strengthen you [making you complete and perfect as you ought to be], accomplishing in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Introduction
The letter to the Hebrews closes with a personal exhortation to its recipients.
You may feel the very heartbeat of applied Christianity as you read these twenty five verses.
The closing remarks encourage believers to accept certain factors of the Christian experience, each of which is aimed at developing spiritual maturity within the Christian community.

Today we are discussing Upper Room Lessons on Relationships.
Text
John 15:5 (AMP)
5 I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him bears much fruit, for [otherwise] apart from Me [that is, cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
Introduction
Slip into the upper room where Jesus and His disciples are spending their last moments before Jesus’ arrest and crucifixion.
First, put yourself in Jesus’ place.
Suppose you are about to leave your disciples and you must give them last minute instructions on how to carry on your work, and they are slow learners.
What would you say to them?
Or imagine you are one of the disciples and you are heartbroken at the thought of your Lord going away.
You are confused, frustrated, and overwhelmed by all that is happening.

Introduction
As a preface to his instructions concerning irrefutable proof of one’s abiding fellowship with God in Christ, John exhorted believers to avoid sin and be conscious of satan’s ever present efforts to tempt and seduce the children of God.
But realising that the sinful nature is still present with us even though our souls are redeemed, John reminded his readers that all is not lost when we sin.
God has made provision, through the advocacy of Jesus, our great High Priest, who is seated at God’s right hand in heaven.
With that incomparable truth established, John proceeded to set forth two tests that will prove that a person has fellowship with God.

Jesus Christ is the one Mediator between God and Man.
In the letter to the Hebrews, the new covenant through Jesus Christ has been introduced.
The last two chapters of Hebrews are messages of exhortation.
Four special exhortations are found in chapter 12, readers are encouraged to heed a race to be run, a chastisement to be endured, a challenge to be accepted, and a city to be experienced.

Today we are discussing Upper Room Lessons on Jesus' Promises.
Jesus had been preparing the disciples for His imminent departure, and He told them why He was going, to prepare a place for them.
John 14:2 (AMP)
2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you.
His assurance of coming back for them calmed their hearts, but at the same time they wondered how they would cope in His absence.
Every day Jesus had been with them answering their questions, directing their thoughts, settling their arguments, and strengthening them by His presence.
Now He would be leaving them.

Text
1 John 2:1 (AMP)
Christ Is Our Advocate
2 My little children (believers, dear ones), I am writing you these things so that you will not sin and violate God’s law. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate [who will intercede for us] with the Father: Jesus Christ the righteous [the upright, the just One, who conforms to the Father’s will in every way—purpose, thought, and action].
Introduction
Paul said in his letter to the Ephesians, Ephesians 2:8-9 (AMP)
8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;
9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] boast or take credit in any way [for his salvation].
This is perhaps the simplest yet most profound statement in the bible in regard to the new birth.

Introduction
We often face the age old question of life after death.
Deep down in every heart this question must be answered order for us to prepare to live.
Once we lose faith in the immortality of the soul there is no lever capable of raising an entire people up.

Introduction
Light is a favourite word of John’s, used not only in his letters, but also in his gospel.
He saw God and light as inseparable.
He literally illuminated his letters and gospel with light as again and again he used that symbolism for God and truth.
As we look at 1 John 1:5-10, we find that John, in effect, drew a circle with God at the centre.
He is the source of the light that fills the circle, darkness, with its evil, is beyond the circumference of the circle.

In many respects it is neglected.
The Jewish, or Old Testament, back ground that permeates every chapter has probably contributed to its neglect by many pastors.
The book of Hebrews portrays an exalted concept of Jesus Christ.
This week we are talking about,
Christ, The Living God.
Introduction
People with spiritual perception are aware of two major activities of God, He expresses His love in many ways, yet He also expresses His displeasure and wrath to those who reject Him.
The author of Hebrews was aware of God’s wrathful activity.
He wrote in Hebrews 10:31 (AMP)
31 It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God [incurring His judgment and wrath].
The Scripture passage under consideration reveals several things that the living God does for and to humankind.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This month we are going to look at lessons from the Upper Room
Today we are discussing Upper Room Lessons on Love.
Text
John 13:34-35 (AMP)
34 I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too are to love one another.
35 By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love and unselfish concern for one another.”
Today we enter into the sacred place the upper room where Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper.
Here Jesus taught His disciples just before His crucifixion in John 13 through to 17, here the devil won a victory over Judas, here Jesus met with His disciples after the resurrection, and here the disciples prayed and the Holy Spirit set the fires of Pentecost.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
One of the greatest tragedies of life is the inability or the neglect of a father to pass on to his children the benefits of his experience.
Fathers must instruct, warn, and encourage their children.
For the next while Wednesday evenings messages will be from John’s first epistle and are titled “The Counsel of a Spiritual Father to His Children.”
Today we are discussing The Christ We Preach.

1 John 1:3 (ESV)

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are talking about The Walls of Jericho.
The first account of Jericho in the Bible is in Joshua 6, the story of the capture of the Canaanite city by Joshua and God’s people.
The miracle of Jericho’s walls falling down is recorded in Joshua 6:20 (ESV)
20 So the people shouted, and the trumpets were blown. As soon as the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people shouted a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they captured the city.
Anyone who believes in God’s power to foreknow and His power to act and direct, will have no trouble believing in the miracle of the destruction of Jericho’s walls.
At a specified juncture on the seventh day, after the people had circled the city seven times, the walls fell down.
God had worked another miracle for His people.
It was fitting that the first time Israel crossed swords with their deadly and dreaded enemies, God intervened to hearten His people, His warriors.
Miracles show us God’s power.
Gos is as much with us in our battles as He was with Joshua and His people when they marched around Jericho.
Let’s look at some of the great truths in this miracle for us.

Hebrews 8:1-2 (ESV)
Jesus, High Priest of a Better Covenant
8 Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,
2 a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man.
Introduction
A covenant is an agreement between two or more parties.
The Bible is built on two major covenants between God and humankind, the old and the new.
Hebrews 8 compares the two covenants.
Both were acceptable to God when He designated them to be applicable to humankind.
The prominent difference is that the old covenant was simply a shadow of the new covenant.
The mediator of the covenant of realism is Jesus Christ.

Matthew 1:24 (ESV)
24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife,
Introduction
When Christmas rolls around, the spotlight settles on Jesus, His mother, Mary, the shepherds, the angels, and the Magi.
Have you ever heard a sermon about Joseph, Mary’s husband, who functioned as Jesus’ human father?
I haven’t, until now.
The Roman Catholic Church has canonised Joseph, calling him Saint Joseph.
But us protestants have virtually ignored him.
He must have been a remarkable man of God to be chosen from all the men on the earth to serve as Jesus’ earthly father.
Let’s give him some honour today by learning about him, and even learning from him as I believe one of the biggest issues facing both the church and the world are fatherless children.
Matthew recorded the most information about Joseph.
He was a descendant of David, so royal blood ran through his veins.
He maintained a dignity and kindness that reflected his family heritage.
He witnessed Jesus’ birth, saw the shepherd’s adoration, and led Mary and the Baby to Egypt to escape Herod’s slaughter of infants.
Joseph took Jesus to the temple at least twice, once in His infancy and again when He was twelve years old.
Jesus called Joseph “father” and was subject to his authority.
Joseph feared God and worked hard to support his family in a rustic town that was disliked for its obscurity and provincialism.
Joseph disappeared from the historical accounts of the Gospels.
It is likely that he died when Jesus was a young man, and Jesus as the eldest son, assumed the responsibility of Joseph’s carpentry shop and the support of His family.
He didn’t stop working as the village carpenter until His younger brothers were old enough to take over.
Then He entered His public ministry.
Think about that for a second if you believe God will heal everyone with a sickness, Jesus didn’t heal or raise from the dead His earthly father.
Although little is written about Joseph, we find plenty of facts to know he was a great man.

24 but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever.
25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost[a] those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
Introduction
The readers of the letter to the Hebrews were aware of the Jew’s high priesthood system.
They also knew of a special historical priest named Melchizedek.
Now they were learning about the high priesthood of Christ.
This chapter compares the three seperate high priesthood systems to prove that Christ is the superior High Priest.
We need none other than Jesus Christ.

Philemon 1-3 (ESV)
Greeting
1 Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,
To Philemon our beloved fellow worker
2 and Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier, and the church in your house:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Introduction
Is there a church in your house?
Has the church ever met at your home?
Would the church be welcome in your house?
Various statements in the New Testament indicate that house churches were numerous in the early days of Christianity.
We find Aquila and Priscilla and the church that met at their house sending greetings along with Paul to the church in Corinth.
When Paul sent his letter to the church in Rome, he sent special greetings to the church that met in Aquila and Priscilla’s home.

To be saved we must have saving faith.
After we are saved, we need faith to do God’s work.
Most Christians do not have the faith they need or want to carry on their Lord’s work.
We need to develop the art of completely letting God control everything.
This is the gift of the Holy Spirit.

In many respects it is neglected. The Jewish, or Old Testament, back ground that permeates every chapter has probably contributed to its neglect by many pastors. The book of Hebrews portrays an exalted concept of Jesus Christ. This week we are talking about, Christ’s Challenge, Perfection. Text Hebrews 6:1-3 (ESV) 6 Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 and of instruction about washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do if God permits. Introduction By nature we are sinful creatures, so we can never be perfect through our own efforts. Romans 5:12 (ESV) Death in Adam, Life in Christ 12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned— Yet through the power of God we are always to move in that direction. The authors purpose in this chapter was to challenge believers to aim for perfection. To achieve this end, he presented the goal, gave reason for the struggle, and then revealed three instruments available to Christians in this adventure.

Today is part 1 Let Us Encourage One Another.
Text
Hebrews 10:24 (ESV)
24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,
Introduction
Everyone needs encouragement, no-one is exempt from the need to be encouraged by others.
This is particularly true in family circles.
Husbands need encouragement from their wives and wives need encouragement from their husbands.
Mothers need encouragement from their children and children need encouragement from their mothers.
Children in fact need encouragement from both parents constantly.
It is interesting to note how our text is translated in various bible versions.
The King James version put it like this, Hebrews 10:24 (KJV)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
Provoke means to arouse to action, to excite, to stir up feelings.
The word is often used to reference arousing someone to anger, but in our text it is a strong word used to encourage love and good works.
The English Standard Version translates the verse Hebrews 10:24 (ESV)
24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,
Stir up means to move, to excite, to agitate.
The Good News Translation translates our text as Hebrews 10:24 (GNT)
24 Let us be concerned for one another, to help one another to show love and to do good.
To be concerned is to show interest or care.
To help is to provide assistance.
The New International Version puts it Hebrews 10:24 (NIV)
24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,
To spur is to prompt or motivate.
Whatever the version used, the verse urges us to help one another practice self giving love and perform good works for God and others.

Text
Hebrews 5:8-9 (ESV)
8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered.
9 And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,
Introduction
The main point of this Scripture passage is found in verse 11.
The writer is saddened by the lack of spiritual discernment among the people.
A keen spiritual sensitivity is essential in believers’ lives.
The goal of this passage is to encourage the readers in Hebrews 5:14 (ESV)
14 But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.

Today is part 3 Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.
Text
Revelation 3:20 (ESV)
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
Introduction
How would you respond if someone invited you to a dinner where the special guest was Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
How would you react to the possibility of inviting Him into your home for a meal?
How would you react if you received an invitation to attend a banquet at which Jesus Christ was serving as the host?
It is interesting to note in the words of our text today that Jesus Christ invites himself to come into our lives.
He offers to sit as a guest at the table that we would place before Him.
In turn He would serve as the host for a banquet that He would provide for us.
It is significant that our Lord would describe conversion and the Christian life in terms of a banquet experience in which He and the guests would enjoy feasting and fellowship together.
How tragic it is that many look upon the Christian life as a famine instead of a feast.

Christ, The Believer's Rest.
Text
Hebrews 4:16 (ESV)
16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Introduction
The author of Hebrews considered a major problem confronting the New Testament Christians as he studied the Ten Commandments.
Moses wrote that those who fear God are to “remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy” in Exodus 20:8.
New Testament Christians emphasise keeping Sunday, the first day, as a day of worship, not Saturday, which is the seventh day.
1 Corinthians 16:2 (ESV)
2 On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.
This chapter discusses the basic meaning behind keeping the “seventh day.”
The key to this whole concept is the word “rest.”
Hebrews 4:4 says God rested on the seventh day.
Hebrews 4:4 (ESV)
4 For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.”
The writer of Hebrews interprets the idea of “rest” for believers as being found within the person of Jesus Christ in verses 4:9-11 and verse 4:16.
Hebrews 4:9-11 (ESV)
9 So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,
10 for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.
11 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.
Hebrews 4:16 (ESV)
16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
consequently, this chapter presents the teaching that if a person is involved in God’s rest, it will be within a relationship with Jesus christ.

Today we are continuing our series titled “The Good News of God’s Glorious offer”
The true shepherd of the flock must not only feed the sheep but must also give weekly attention to increasing the flock.
Today is part 2 The Great Salvation That Creates Fellowship.
Text
Mark 6:1-3 (ESV)
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
6 He went away from there and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him.
2 And on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things? What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands?
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.
Introduction
Our great salvation includes more than the salvation of our souls, which is the free gift of God when we put faith and trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
It includes more than new bodies and a heavenly home, which our Lord is preparing for those who love Him.
Our salvation involves living the heavenly way of life here and now in the power of the risen and living Lord.
It is by Jesus’ substitutionary death and His victorious resurrection that He saves us from the penalty of sin.
It is by the Holy Spirit’s authoritative teaching as heaven’s infallible and inerrant Teacher and by His work within our hearts that we experience spiritual transformation.
Paul declared concerning those that have experienced the new birth that God has “predetermined that they shall be conformed to the image of His son”

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Today we are continuing our study the “Gifts of The Holy Spirit.”
It is important to remember that a positive response on our part as believers to the Father’s gift of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential if we are to truly be God’s people.
Today we are discussing The Gift of Preaching.

Ephesians 4:11 (ESV)
11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds[a] and teachers,
Introduction
I once read this job description for a pastor, it was titled “The Pastors easy Job.”
His job is something like a football in a grand final, he is knocked on one side and then on the other.
If he writes a a text, it is too short, if he writes an email, it is too long, if he creates printed newsletters he is wasting money.
If he attempts to safeguard the interests of the church, he is trying to run things, if he does not, he is allowing things to go to the dogs.
If he attends extra meetings of the church, he is an intruder, if he does not he isn’t doing his job.
If the attendance is low, nobody likes him anyway, if he tries to help, he is a pest.
If he calls for he offering, all he thinks about is money, if the offering is not good, he is to blame.
If he is in a smiling mood, he is frivolous, if he is serious, he is cranky.
If he seeks advice, he is incompetent, if he doesn’t, he is bullheaded.
If he mixes with the members of the church, he is too familiar, if he doesn’t, he is too good for them.
So, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if others won’t do it, the pastor must.
The pastor, in the final analysis, is accountable to God.
His or her successes or failures are not to be determined by a person, committee, or congregation, but by how faithful he or she is to God.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This week we are starting a new series on Sunday nights titles “Jesus Christ as Our High Priest.”
The book of Hebrews isn’t the most popular book in the New Testament.
In many respects it is neglected.
The Jewish, or Old Testament, back ground that permeates every chapter has probably contributed to its neglect by many pastors.
The book of Hebrews portrays an exalted concept of Jesus Christ.
This week we are talking about,
Christ, The Apostle and High Priest.
Text
Hebrews 3:6 (ESV)
6 but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.
Introduction
The focal point of Christianity is Jesus Christ.
The author of Hebrews encourages the recipients to give consideration to this Jesus.
He identifies Him as both the Apostle and High priest of our profession.
Much of the letter emphasises Jesus as our High priest.
Chapter three stresses the apostleship of our Lord.
The word for “apostle” in the New Testament means “one sent forth with orders”.
Jesus Christ was sent from the Father with orders to secure salvation for lost humankind.
This chapter depicts Jesus as that great Apostle who is eventually rejected in unbelief (verse 3:12)
Take note of this Apostle.

Today is part 1 What Is a Born Again Christian?
Text
John 3:3 (ESV)
3 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
Introduction
The term “born again Christian” has had national and even international attention especially recently with leaders like Scott Morrison and Donald Trump coming to power and publicly acknowledging they are born again Christians.
And for years there have been many commentaries about what it means to be a born again Christian.
Most people would say it means that you have let Jesus Christ come into your heart.
Not all people who think they are born again Christians are born again Christians, some are not even Christians.

Hebrews 2:9 (ESV)
9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
Scripture Reading
Hebrews 2:1-18 (ESV)
Introduction
The new covenant could be established only by the death of the Testator.
Hebrews 9:16 (ESV) says
16 For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established.
God is the one establishing the new covenant.
The God of heaven cannot die.
For the covenant to become effective, God left the safety of heaven in the person of Jesus Christ and took on Himself the form of man.
God as a true man could die.
This is what happened to Jesus at Calvary.
The taking on of human form was a humiliating experience for Jesus Christ.
Yet He did it so that we might have eternal life.
In this particular chapter of Hebrews, the humiliation of Jesus is vividly brought home to us.

Mary. A Model for Modern Mothers

Luke 1:28 (ESV)
28 And he came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you!”
Scripture Reading
Luke 1:26-35 and Luke 1:46-56 (ESV)
Introduction
We should look for models to imitate in the Scriptures.
Today on mothers day, let us have a look at Mary, the mother of our Lord. As a great model for motherhood.
Let us discover something about her faith and faithfulness.
Let us consider the fruit of her motherhood so that we may identify some factors that contributed to her success as a mother.

Introduction
The use of this gift is one of the most beautiful services a Christian can perform.
It can be used to give hope, encouragement, and determination.
Jesus is our best example of one who practices mercy.

Hebrews 1:1-2 (ESV)
The Supremacy of God's Son
1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets,
2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.
Introduction
The letter to the Hebrews was written to prove that the new covenant in Jesus Christ is superior to the old covenant of Mount Sinai.
God sent His messenger, Jesus Christ, to establish the new covenant.
This introductory chapter to Hebrews overwhelms its recipients with spiritual facts about Christ, God’s messenger.

Today we are Finishing up our series titled “The Nature and Mission of the Church”
The New Testament contains many images and figures of speech that describe this divine but human institution for which the Lord died and on which He depends for carrying on His work in the world today.
Today is part 3 The Church, The Community of the Holy Spirit.
Text
John 14:26 (ESV)
26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
Introduction
We often look back to the days of Jesus’ life on earth with a bit of regret that we did not get to know Him at that time.
Sometimes we think our faith would be stronger if we had the opportunity of seeing Jesus.
We are however, probably mistaken.
Many of those who saw Jesus did not believe in Him.
On the eve of Jesus’ crucifixion, He told His disciples in John 14:26 (ESV)
26 But the Helper, or the advocate depending on what translation you are reading, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
In other words, Jesus indicated that the Holy Spirit would take His place on earth and would continue all that He had begun.

Introduction
Giving falls into the category of helpfulness rather than being a personal trait so it is a little different to the previous gifts we have discussed.
Excitement builds as we continue to study the Spiritual Gifts.
We can easily see God’s wisdom through His work in the church.
By bestowing the gifts of the Spirit, God equips everyone who is needed to do His work in the church.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This week we are continuing our series titled Understanding Christ’s Passion.
The death of Christ was interpreted only as a great personal tragedy and a political catastrophe by the disciples until the light of God was shed on this event through the doorway of an empty tomb and the presence of a living Lord.
This week we are talking about,
Realising the Resurrection.
Text
Luke 24:15-16 (ESV)
15 While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.
16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
Luke 24:30-31 (ESV)
30 When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed and broke it and gave it to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight.
Introduction
Approached from the standpoint of the two disciples who walked with the risen Christ on the road to Emmaus, our scripture reading is a beautiful story.
Luke told it simply, and in great detail because the experience of these two disciples was representative of all Jesus’ followers.
This story illustrates that it is possible to see and yet not perceive, to behold but not to recognise, to have the risen Christ walk beside us without realising it is truly Him.
This story has two key verses, Luke 24:16 and 31.
There is a dark side to this story, 16 But their eyes were kept from recognising him.
But there is also a bright side, 31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognised him.
Heartbreak and sadness gave way to joy and gladness.
As clearly as in any record in the New Testament, here are two sides of a coin.

5 so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
Introduction
The human body is an amazing creation.
Too often we take it for granted and do not express our gratitude to God for His wonderful creation.
Think of the things our bodies can do, athletes in particular show amazing mental focus while this bodies execute well timed coordination, control and concentration.
The church, as the body of Christ, needs to operate with the same kind of coordination.

Recognising His Identity.
Text
Matthew 21:10 (ESV)
10 And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Introduction
On that first Palm Sunday, Jesus, surrounded buy a great crowd of followers and others, entered Jerusalem as the King in exact fulfilment of prophecy, to make a final appeal to His own nation.
Isaiah 62:11 (ESV)
11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, “Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.”
Zechariah 9:9 (ESV)
The Coming King of Zion
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he,
humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
This was His royal entry, and it caused a sensation.
Matthew 21:10 (ESV) says
10 And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
For two thousand years this same Jesus has been invading our complacent little Jerusalems, causing considerable disturbance, and many have been pondering His true identity, asking, “who is this?”
On the evening of Jesus’ resurrection, He appeared to the disciples behind closed doors.
He lingered until they recognised Him.
He came to the Roman Empire and overthrew the Caesars.
During the Dark Ages, He came in mystic power to scattered groups.
He fortified sorely pressed followers as they proclaimed His truths.
He was present during the Protestant Reformation.
He came to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries with stirrings of power and progress.
He confronted the twentieth century, and the question was asked, “who is Jesus?”
Now in the twenty first century, this amazing man still disturbs us.
Who is this man who examines our policies and motives and dealings with each other?
“Who is this?”
This question was relevant two thousand years ago, and it is relevant now.
There is no easy answer, but let’s look at five roles of this mysterious Jesus.

Today is part 1 The Church, The Family of God.
Text
Ephesians 2:19 (ESV)
19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,
Introduction
In this passage of Scripture, Paul spoke to the church as “the family of God.”
This analogy has a great deal of meaning and value, and it is supported by a number of other analogies that express the same thing about the nature of the church.
In Galatians 6:10 Paul refereed to the church as “our family in faith.”
Galatians 6:10 (ESV)
10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
He admonished Timothy with respect to his pastoral responsibility in 1 Timothy 3:5(ESV)
5 for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God's church?
Obviously, the church is a larger family.
The church is called the “people” of God in 2 Corinthians 6:16-18, Hebrews 2:14-17, and 1 Peter 4:17.
The church is also compared to a brotherhood in 1 Corinthians 6:5, 1 Peter 2:17 and 5:9.
Also, Jesus refereed to the community that followed Him in terms of the bride and bridegroom in Matthew 22:1-10 and Revelation 19:7.

Text
1 Corinthians 12:28 (ESV)
28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues.
Introduction
Leading a group of people is a difficult task, it calls for a lot of tact.
When a person has a gift of leadership, everything that person does will have visible assurance, natural authority, clear direction, and confirmation by events.
A leader will make mistakes, but his or her qualities of leadership are greater than can be expected from natural abilities.
This gift of the Spirit is called administration, or leadership.

Understanding our Mission.
Text
John 20:21 (ESV)
21 Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.”
Introduction
The greatest act of missions in the history of the universe was God’s act of sending His Son into the world to assume our humanity in the form of man.
To live a perfect life as He sheered the experience of our race, except for our sins, to win and train those who were to carry on His work, and in the end to die on a cross for our sins, since He had no sins of His own.
In that first post resurrection appearance to His disciples, He conveyed very clearly the mission they were to assume, as He said, “As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.”
This is our mission also.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
It's Easter Sunday and we are going to continue through the series titled “The Centrality of the Cross.”
Today is part 7 The Resurrection of Christ and Our Great Salvation.
Text
Hebrews 7:24-25 (ESV)
24 but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever.
25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
If Jesus had not conquered death and the grave, we would not be in this worship service today.
Christianity is the faith that claims a living founder.
His disciples come together regularly for Bible study, prayer, and worship to experience His living presence in their midst.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
We are studying the spiritual gifts, the theme of this series is “Gifts of The Holy Spirit.”
It is important to remember that a positive response on our part as believers to the Father’s gift of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential if we are to truly be God’s people.
Today we are discussing The Gift of Helping.
Text
1 Corinthians 12:28 (ESV)
28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues.
Introduction
Two things need to be noted about the gift of helping.
first, an indefinite number of Christians may possess this gift.
In fact, it appears that all believers may have this one.
Secondly, this particular gift is to be distinguished from others in that it does not have a miraculous character.

This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
As we head towards Easter we are going to move through a series titled “The Centrality of the Cross.”
Today is part 6 When Death Brings Life.
Text
John 12:32-33 (ESV)
32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die.
Introduction
We come today, in our emphasis on the centrality of the cross, to the last week of Jesus’ life.
It is Monday, the day after He rode into Jerusalem on a borrowed donkey.
The pilgrims excitement about Jesus’ presence in Jerusalem was running high.
They had greeted Him on Sunday with palm branches, a practise that had first been used when the Jews celebrated the deliverance of the temple and Jerusalem from the Syrians.
Thought he years the palm branch had come to be used on coins and in the temple feasts as a reminder of that great victory led by the Maccabeans.
So when they waved the palm branches before Jesus, tit was a symbolic way of encouraging Him to conquer the Romans.
They wanted Him to be a military saviour.
They cried “Hosanna!” Which meant “save us now!” Or “Deliver us now!”
But Jesus came not riding a warriors stallion, but on a donkey, to symbolise His mission as a man of peace.

Hey everyone I’m Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
This week we are starting a new series titled Understanding Christ’s Passion.
The death of Christ was interpreted only as a great personal tragedy and a political catastrophe by the disciples until the light of God was shed on this event through the doorway of an empty tomb and the presence of a living Lord.
This week we are talking about,
Understanding the Cross.
Text
Matthew 16:21 (ESV)
Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection
21 From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.
Introduction
Our text today reveals that the disciples’ recognition of Jesus as the Messiah marked a new departure in Jesus’ teaching.
After the disciples realise that Jesus was the Messiah, they needed know what His true mission was.
They needed to understand the cross.
They had put away their dreams of a messiah who would come for Israel alone to overthrow its enemies.
It was necessary for the disciples to see Jesus as the sin bearer for all humankind and to know that He was the Messiah who would become the Saviour of all humankind by way of the cross.
Did His own nation understand the cross?
No, the rebelled against the idea of a messiah on a cross.
Did His disciples understand the cross?
No.
Peter’s reaction to Jesus’ announcement of His coming rejection and death plainly shows this delusion in Matthew 16:22 (ESV)
22 And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This shall never happen to you.”
Those influenced by Greek philosophers were sure that people belittled God by saying that He could be affected by human actions or pain.
Do we understand the cross?
No, our understanding falls far short.
But we can understand four things.

Today we are discussing The Gift of Healing.
Text
1 Corinthians 12:9 (ESV)
9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,
Scripture Reading
James 5:14-16 (ESV)
14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.
Introduction
A human being is made up of body, soul, and spirit, or physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual parts.
The Lord is interested in all three.
To be whole, a person needs health in all three areas.
The Bible says in 1 John 1:9 (ESV)
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
This is spiritual healing.
But the main point of this message is healing of the mind and body.
The gift of healing is the ability to intervene in a supernatural way and cure a person of illness and restore health.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia. This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday. As we head towards Easter we are going to move through a series titled “The Centrality of the Cross.” Today is part 5 The Cross and Discipleship. Text Matthew 16:24-25 (ESV) Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus 24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. Scripture Reading Matthew 16:21-27 (ESV) Introduction The word disciple is an appealing word to Christians because it brings to mind those twelve men who were chosen by the Lord for a unique task, that of being the first messengers of the good news He came to give the world. Certainly the shepherds on the Judean hills and the wise men who came from afar were “heralds” of the Saviour, but they did not have an opportunity to know the very essence of His gospel. The familiar word, discipleship, also carries a certain appeal, because we interpret it to be the ideal lifestyle of a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, a lifetime of following and learning from the Master. Yet, inherent in the word disciple, and hence discipleship, is the word discipline. We don’t find the same appeal in the word discipline because it has negative overtones. Everyone is born with a tendency toward rebellion against authority. In other words, discipline, the enemy of everyones will, saturated the way of life Jesus came to reveal. Many who were confronted with the challenge to follow Him could not accept this discipline. As the time for His crucifixion drew closer, there was an unusual urgency in what Jesus said about the cross and about discipleship.

He came to do something more than just give us a ticket to heaven.
This week we are talking about.
Hindrances to Spiritual Growth.
Text
1 Peter 2:2 (ESV)
2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation
Scripture Reading
1 Peter 2:1-3, 11-12 (ESV)
Introduction
A Christian life starts with. Spiritual birth experience.
You cannot begin a spiritual life merely by making some good resolutions or joining a congregation of believers.
Spiritual salvation is much more that developing excellence of character or being a member of a church.
Until you experience a birth from above, you dwell in spiritual death.
You do not have the life of God within your innermost being.
Until you are born of the spirit, you are like an unfertilised egg with the potential for spiritual birth.
God uses His divine Word to welcome you into His family.
Some refuse to receive God’s Word in faith, consequently, they deprive themselves of this spiritual birth.
Many hindrances and obstacles must be overcome if we are to grow physically from infancy to maturity.
The same is true on the spiritual level.
We would be wise to recognise some opponents that stand in our way on the pathway to spiritual maturity.

Text
1 Corinthians 12:10 (ESV)
10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
Scripture Reading
Romans 15:18-19 (ESV)
18 For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience—by word and deed,
19 by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God—so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ;
Introduction
To adequately explain the gift of miracles in a biblical way is a true challenge.
If you believe in God, a God who created the universe, sustains it, and controls it, you must also believe in the possibility of miracles.
If, however, you believe in a natural world that is controlled by universal and unalterable laws, you probably have difficulty believing in miracles.

Today is part 4 The Serpent and the Saviour.
Text
John 3:14-15 (ESV)
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.
Scripture Reading
John 3:1-21 (ESV)
In all the Gospels, no conversation is so carefully recorded in regard to detail as the one between our Lord and Nicodemus in John 3.
The reason for this thoroughness in obvious, Jesus was relating to Nicodemus the very essence of the good news.
When conveying God’s truth, our words must be clear and understandable, and they must find their way into the hearts of people just as Jesus’ words penetrated the heart of Nicodemus.
Jesus' words were so explicit that everyone who has read them in the generations since Nicodemus have found them to be clear signs marking the way to eternal life.
Nowhere else in Scripture is there any more concise, easily understood presentation of the new birth,
And, as with practically everything Jesus did, across the beauty and symbolism of these words spoken to Nicodemus, there was the shadow of the cross.

The Necessity of Spiritual Growth.
We have a great salvation because we have a great Saviour.
We need to recognise and respond to His entire redemptive program for us, not just part of it.
The Philippine jailer asked. ‘what must I do to be saved?”
This is an appropriate question each of us.
To be saved from the power of sin, we must daily live in fellowship with Jesus Christ.
To be save from the very presence of sin, we must wait in faith for the return of Jesus Christ at the end of the age.
Some people have never seriously asked, “What must I do to be saved?”

Text
Ephesians 4:11 (ESV)
11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers,
Introduction
It is sad to say, but there are many believers that seem to be mothballed at the moment.
Like rusty old ships anchored in some sheltered ecclesiastical harbour, they forget that a spiritual war rages.
The church should not be inactively isolated ip some religious river, but should be out on the high seas fighting the enemy.
One gift that many christians seem to have put in mothballs is that of teaching.
With so many children churches and other spots crying out for competent spirit filled teachers, or complaining because the people they get are misfits, every believer should examine their own life to see whether they possess this gift.
If they do, they should start using it.
If they don’t, they should quit trying.
The subject of todays message is “The Gift of Teaching”

Today is part 3 The Temple of His Body.
Text
John 2:18-19 (ESV)
18 So the Jews said to him, “What sign do you show us for doing these things?”
19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
Introduction
The implications of what the cross stood for are true.
The supreme objective of our Lord Jesus was the cross.
From His baptism in the Jordan river , when John the Baptist declared in, John 1:29 (ESV)
“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Until His crucifixion three and a half years later, Jesus’s steps were resolutely in the direction of the cross.
In todays text, John revealed three distinct things about our Lord’s personality, each relates in a unique way to His death on the cross.
We see Him show anger, we hear Him announce His mission to die, and we observe His divine magnetism that made Him appeal to the people, because not only did He work miracles on their behalf, but He was also in their hearts.

Salvation from the Power and Practice of Sin.
Text
Romans 6:12 (ESV)
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions.
Scripture Reading
Romans 6:1-14 (ESV)
Introduction
The poor performance of professed disciples is the greatest stumbling block in the path of unbelievers becoming followers of Christ.
And a genuine fear of spiritual failure keeps many sincere seekers from making a commitment to Christ in faith.
A believer who is experiencing victory over the power of sin is the best possible testimony to the saving power of Jesus Christ.
Jesus wants to save us from the penalty of sin, which is death that separates us from God.
To save us from this penalty, He needs our consent to let Him come and live within our hearts.
Revelation 3:20 (ESV) says,
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
Christ also wants to save us from the power of sin in the present.
For Him to accomplish this, we must give Him our cooperation in addition to our consent.
For you to experience salvation from the power and practice of sin in the present, Jesus Christ needs your faith, your commitment, and your cooperation.

Text

28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues
Scripture Reading
1 Corinthians 14 (ESV)
Introduction
The gift of prophecy is the subject of todays message.
The person who is called to preach is a prophet endowed by God with the ability to speak forth God’s Word.
The noun prophet is found 144 times in the New Testament, 37 in Matthew, 29 in Luke, 30 in Acts, 14 in John, 6 in Mark, and 10 in Paul’s writings.
The remainder of the 144 times are found scattered throughout the rest of the New Testament.
The verb prophesy is found 28 times in the New Testament.
Obviously, a subject found so many times in the New Testament is something important we need to consider.

The passage of scripture that falls between Matthew 5:1 and 8:1 is known as the Sermon on the Mount.
It is significant that this message was delivered to the crowds that had begun to follow Jesus and that once He had completed this message, the crowds followed Him down from the mountain.
But the more significant thing is that the crowds continue to follow Jesus after two thousand years have passed by.
By the grace of God, we have been chosen to be among the crowds that follow Him and listen to Him.
What is the secret of this magnetism of the Teacher who spoke these remarkable words?
What is it that causes this fellowship of the crowds after two thousand years?
Why is it that you and I follow Him?

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting our Friday messages with Experiencing the Great Salvation of God” this series will enlarge or concepts of what God has provided for us in and through Jesus.
He came to do something more than just give us a ticket to heaven.
This week we are talking about.
Salvation in this present day.
Text
Titus 2:11 (ESV)
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people,
Scripture Reading
Titus 2:11014 (ESV
Introduction
Paul rejoiced greatly over God’s free salvation that he has provided for the benefit of all people of all time.
Paul was so filled with gratitude that he had an inner compulsion to proclaim his faith to the ends of the earth.
In the words that follow our text, Paul described the nature of this great salvation.
He declared that “it teaches us to say No to ungodliness and world passions, and to live self controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age” (Titus 2:12)
Verses 12-15 set forth some things that our salvation teaches us.
These verses contain God’s plan for our great salvation from the power and practice of sin in the present.
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us
2020 IS A YEAR OF CLARITY

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
We are studying the spiritual gifts, the theme of this series is “Gifts of The Holy Spirit.”
It is important to remember that a positive response on our part as believers to the Father’s gift of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential if we are to truly be God’s people.
Today we are discussing The Gift of Apostleship.
Text
1 Corinthians 12:28 (ESV)
28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues
So far our weekly discussions on the gifts of the Spirit have been general.
This message deals with a specific gift, apostleship.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
As we head towards Easter we are going to move through a series titled “The Centrality of the Cross.”
Today is part 1 Behold The Lamb of God.
Text
John 1:29 (ESV)
Behold, the Lamb of God
29 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Throughout the two thousand years of Christian history, the cross has been the focal point of our faith.
Every other aspect of Christianity is given validity and power because of the cross and that for which it stands.
Without the cross, Christianity would be nothing but a religion.
Because of the cross, Christianity is a way of life.
Every one of satan’s efforts to tempt Jesus was aimed at getting Him to bypass the cross.
Never did satan try to convince Jesus that He was not the Son of God or that He did not have “all power in heaven and earth.”
But he did try to persuade Him to choose some route besides the cross in His mission to save humanity.
But the cross was central in Jesus’ mind.

1 Peter 2:4-5 (ESV)
4 As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious,
5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
The Salvation that God offers through Jesus Christ is truely a great salvation.
There are no disappointments for those who sincerely respond to God’s offer of full redemption from the penalty of sin, the practise of sin, and ultimately, the very presence of sin.

Today we are discussing The Filling of the Holy Spirit.
Text
Ephesians 5:18 (ESV)
18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,
Not everyone agrees on what is meant by the “filling of the Holy Spirit.”
This message today is not meant to be controversial.
If you pick up an offence, that is your choice, you have a choice to be offended or not.
It is hoped that today an agreement can be reached on the use of terms and that all will benefit from the discussion.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
To begin 2020 we are starting off on Sundays with “The Way to Happiness”.
Everyone wants to be happy, and the New Testament is the greatest authority on happiness.
Jesus gives is the key that will unlock the door to happiness.
This key is found in the eight Beatitudes.
We have already covered,
Humility, The Way to Happiness.
Sorrow, The Way to Happiness.
Meekness, The Way to Happiness.
Hunger and Thirst, The Way to Happiness.
Mercy, The Way to Happiness.
Purity, The Way to Happiness.
Peacemaking, The Way to Happiness.
Today is part 8 Persecution, The Way to Happiness.
Text
Matthew 5:10-12 (ESV)
10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.
12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
We are made to love and be loved.
We like to be liked.
Friendship is the atmosphere in which we breath most freely.
To be ridiculed as a child is a heart breaking experience, but the pain is not lessened as we become adults.
Persecution in the form of harassment and unfair accusations could destroy our private castles of security.
Of all the injuries that can be afflicted on a human being, persecution possibly comes the closest to making life hell on earth.
Therefore the Lord’s final beatitude seems almost paradoxical.
“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
This is probably the most difficult of the beatitudes to believe.
The reason for this difficulty is that persecution seems to be the anti of happiness.
Furthermore, it seems like a strange statement to come from the lips of such a compassionate saviour.
How can we understand our Lord when He congratulated those who were persecuted and encouraged them to rejoice in their persecution?
Obviously there is a paradox to be explained.

The Holy Spirit and Our Salvation.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (ESV)
19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,
20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
Introduction
Paul was a great missionary who preached the gospel in Corinth, a famous city that stood at the gateway between two worlds.
It was cosmopolitan, sophisticated, and wicked.
The people who responded to the gospel experienced forgiving grace and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour.
They became children of God through faith in Jesus Christ.
The apostle Paul, as God’s servant and as the instrument of His love, instructed the Corinthian believers in the heritage they received as God’s children.
Through example and teaching, he communicated to them that salvation through Jesus Christ is more than a mere introduction into the family of God and a relationship with Him.
Paul stressed that their great salvation was more than the salvation of their souls and a ticket to heaven at the end of the day.
Paul explained that salvation not only involves the soul, but it also provides deliverance and freedom from self destructive attitudes and actions that prevent a person from reflections God’s goodness.

Text
Matthew 5:7 (ESV)
7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”
Introduction
Living without mercy is the prelude to dying without mercy.
On the other hand, living with mercy results in being treated with mercy.
As Jesus said it, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”
This beatitude raises three very practical questions.
What is mercy?
How can I become merciful?
And what can I expect as a result?
Finding the answers to these questions is the way to happiness.

Salvation in the future tense
Text
Romans 13:11-12 (ESV)
11 Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed.
12 The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armour of light.
We truely have a great salvation.
So we should understand the amazing fullness of the salvation that God gives us through faith in Jesus and cooperation with the Holy Spirit as He works within us.
The Holy Spirit led the New Testament writers to relate salvation in a variety of ways.
Commonly it is described in terms like justification and regeneration.
The New Testament portrays salvation in the present tense as a process that started with our conversion and continues from day to day.
God is presently at work in us to deliver us from the sin that surrounds us.
This is not salvation from the punishment of sin or the very presence of sin.
Rather, it is salvation from the power of sin.
If you disregard any phase of our great salvation, your spiritual life won’t be cull and complete.
If you fail to appreciate what God has done for you in the past, you will live in uncertainty in the present and with anxiety about the future.
Today I want to focus on our salvation in the future.
We have to admit that sometimes salvation is over emphasised, which results in neglecting God’s will in the present.
Others have thought of Jesus only as a funeral director who comes at the time of death to carry the soul into the presence of God.
It is disturbing that this is how some see the New Testament teachings about the Lord’s gracious provisions for us in both the present and the future.
Understanding what the New Testament teaches about salvation in the future can be a great source of comfort to an elderly believer and a thrilling challenge to a young disciple.
- This knowledge can help us in our struggle against evil
- This information can support us in our sorrows
- This insight can strengthen us in our conflicts
- This revelation of truth can serve a a reliable test for our scale of values.
Understanding our salvation in the future can help us discover what the ultimate values of life are and what the ultimate victory will be.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Wednesdays with a 5 part series from Philippians 4 about the Pathway to Success.
Today is part Five and we are talking about God’s Supply.
Text
Philippians 4:19 (ESV)
19 And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Supplies are important in every endeavour.
Before kids go back to school, parent go out and buy school supplies so their children will have the materials to do their work.
Before we start church each week we have to ensure all the supplies needed are purchased, sometimes its the simple things like coffee, sugar, and toilet paper.
When an army goes to war, supplies are imperative, support supplies such as food and shelter in addition to military supplies.
And the logistics of transporting supplies to the troops can often become a problem.
Likewise God supplies His people with what they need to get their jobs done.
Paul referred to the present when he said that God would supply our needs.
He was not merely implying a future hope.
The Philippian Church had supplied Paul’s need.
So this turned his thoughts to God, who supplied their every need.
Notice the significant things that Paul said about the way God supplies our needs.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
To begin 2020 we are starting off on Sundays with “The Way to Happiness”.
Everyone wants to be happy, and the New Testament is the greatest authority on happiness.
Jesus gives is the key that will unlock the door to happiness.
This key is found in the eight Beatitudes.
Did you know the word “Blessed” is sometimes translated as “Happy”.
Today is part 4 Hunger and Thirst, The Way to Happiness.
Text
Matthew 5:6 (ESV)
6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
No two people are exactly alike.
Nor have they ever been or will be.
We are different from each other in so many ways.
Different finger prints, eye, hair, and skin colours, different heritage, intelligence levels, and personalities, and don’t forget different heights and weights..
But we are all alike in the fact that we hunger and thirst.
Jesus, in His usual manner of simplifying things that were complicated, used this common demonstration to express the truth of the fourth way to happiness.
“Blessed (happy) are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied (filled).
Its a strange statement to make.
How could hunger and thirst make a person happy?
Jesus explained that the right type of hunger and thirst leads to happiness.
Jesus was actually asking, “How much do you want righteousness? As much as a hungry person wants food? As much as a thirsty person wants water?”
Then He asserted that if you truly hunger and thirst for righteousness, you will be blessed, or happy.
But why?
Because Hunger and thirst are the way to happiness.

The Salvation of Your Life
Text
Philippians 2:12-13 (ESV)
Lights in the World
12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,
13 for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Today we are going to look at the great salvation that god provides for us in the present.
It has been said that there is one way to salvation, and there are two sides to the salvation experience, and there are three phases of salvation that God offers.
The way is by grace through faith in Jesus.
The two sides of the salvation experience are the divine side and the human side.
The three phases of our salvation are the past, present, and future.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Wednesdays with a 5 part series from Philippians 4 about the Pathway to Success.
Today is part Four and we are talking about If You Really Care, Share.
Text
Philippians 4:14-19 (ESV)
14 Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble.
15 And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only.
16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again.
17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit.
18 I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.
19 And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Introduction
The Church at Philippi cared for Paul, so they shared with him.
Their generosity warmed Pauls heart, and he thanked them graciously.
Paul appreciated their gifts not just for his own sake but because of what the gifts meant to the Philippians themselves.
He implicitly believed that money given for the work of Christ blesses those who give as much as those who receive.
Remember, it was Paul who passed on the familiar words of Jesus, in Acts 20:35 (ESV)
35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Paul made a similar remark to his generous friends in Philippi.
Usually we start at the point of a church’s needs when we talk about giving.
Paul started at a different point, the relationship of a believer to Christ.
Because a person is “in Christ”, he or she will give, the results will help both the one who receives and the one who gives.
This is one of the big reasons that at The Refinery we don’t do giving messages each week, we believe that the Christian should have the revelation of giving and not need to be told to.

Today is part 3 Meekness, The Way to Happiness.
Text
Matthew 5:5 (ESV)
5 “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
Can you truly being make and happy at the same time?
Can you picture a meek person who is also a happy person?
You'll probably find this rather challenging.
Our misunderstanding of meekness creates difficulty.
In a world that thinks only an aggressive ambitious person can get a head in life, it is hard to believe that those who are meek will inherit anything, much less the earth!
Yet Jesus upheld meekness as the way to happiness.
“Blessed (happy) are the meek” it says in Matthew 5:5. If anyone knows human nature and what it takes to make a person happy? Jesus Christ is that person.
He did not imply that being fearful or week brings happiness.
Instead, Jesus referred to attitude or outlook.
The meekness he described requires us to be strong people who are grounded in Christ.
It demands us to have a personal relationship with God.
This kind of meekness inevitably brings happiness.
Meekness is the way to happiness for several reasons.
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.refinerylife.org
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Partial or Complete Salvation
Text
Hebrews 2:3 (ESV)
3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard,
Introduction
The Bible is a book that reveals the way of salvation.
Jesus Christ came to be a saviour.
He lived a sinless life and died in our place for our sins.
He rose from the dead, triumphant and victorious, to bring us salvation.
No He lives at His Fathers side making intercession for those who trust him.
Our text today, speaks about salvation as being a great salvation.
Unfortunately, many have made only a half hearted response and have only a fractional understanding of the great salvation available through Jesus Christ.
Our text also speaks about the tragic possibility of believers ignoring their great salvation.
This verse has often been used as a text for an evangelistic sermon, emphasising that unbelievers should no longer neglect to respond to Jesus Christ as saviour.
In reality, the text is addressed to those who have already entered the gateway of salvation but who face the perils of ignoring certain phases of it, resulting in their own hurt in the injury of others.
Have you made a half-hearted response to the great salvation that God offers to you through Jesus Christ.
Only Jesus can save us from the death that sin brings.
Salvation from death, however, is only part of the great salvation that is offered to us.
Christ alone can save us from the downward drag of our inherited evil nature.
And He alone can save us from the hopeless destiny to which is in Leeds.
We should make a complete response to a great salvation rather than ignoring some aspects of it.
For many people, salvation from the penalty of sin is a past experience.
We are justified in God’s sight through faith in Jesus Christ.
Those who have already experienced salvation from the punishment of sin should now be in the process of being saved from the power and the practice of sin.
This is salvation and sanctification in the present tense.
Further, all of trusted Jesus as Saviour in the past and you are presently experiencing the Holy Spirit's work in their lives look forward to salvation from sin in the future.
This is salvation in the future tense, the bible calls are glorification.
As you taking inventory of your own heart and your own faith, have you become satisfied with partial salvation, or are you hungry for and seeking the complete salvation that God offers you through Jesus Christ?
If you have trusted him a saviour, you should desire his full salvation in the present.
To experience complete salvation in the present, you must do a number of things.

Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Wednesdays with a 5 part series from Philippians 4 about the Pathway to Success.
Today is part three and we are talking about The Seven First Words of the Church.
Text
Philippians 4:13 (ESV)
13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
Introduction
We are always interested in a baby’s first words.
It usually takes a great deal of imagination and a bit of interpretation, but we all try to determine those first words a baby speaks.
Some parents even record them in a baby book.
We are also interested in a persons last words.
Supposedly they give some kind of insight into that person and their personality.
So we hold those last words close.
The seven last words of Christ have been taken from the gospel accounts of His crucifixion and been made the subject of countless songs and sermons.
Somewhere, sometime, someone identified the seven last words of the church as “we never did it that way before”.
If those are the seven last words of the church, let me share with you the seven first words of the church, “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”
These memorable word are at the end of Pauls letter to the Philippians.
Not only are they a good summary of Pauls life, but they make an adequate statement of the first words of the church, word which the church can base its life and ministry.

Everyone wants to be happy, and the New Testament is the greatest authority on happiness.
Jesus gives is the key that will unlock the door to happiness.
This key is found in the eight Beatitudes.
Did you know the word “Blessed” is sometimes translated as “Happy”.
Today is part 2 Sorrow, The way to Happiness.
Text
Matthew 5:4 (ESV)
4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Introduction
The way to happiness is outlined in the first twelve verses of Matthew 5.
Last Sunday we noted that the word "blessed” the Beatitudes could also be translated to “happy”.
In the first Beatitude , Jesus said the initial step toward happiness is humility, being “poor in spirit”.
We find a very strange statement in the second beatitude, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
What would you think of a person who said to a crying child, “why are you so happy?”
You would probably think that this person was either crazy or just plain cruel!
The response to Christ’s remark that a mourning person is happy has been similar.
The statement doesn’t seem to add up.
So we now need to remind ourselves that the beatitudes were not spoken to unbelievers but to the disciples.
Remember verse 1? “And seeing the multitudes, He went up into the mountain, and when He was set. The disciples came unto Him.”
What Jesus said regarding the way to happiness is directed to Christians alone, those who are capable of experiencing life at its highest level of happiness.
“Blessed (happy) are they that mourn.”
Does this refer to those people who wander around with a dismal attitude, or those that when we se them we try to avoid them because of they always have bad news?
Not at all!
This verse could be translated more like, Jesus said, “how happy are those that know the meaning of sorrow, for they will be given courage and comfort!”
There are two types of sorrow. One leads to happiness and the other leads to misery.
One carries with it a blessing and the other nothing at all.
One leads to life, and the other death.
Paul distinguished between the two in 2 Corinthians 7:8-10 (ESV)
8 For even if I made you grieve with my letter, I do not regret it—though I did regret it, for I see that that letter grieved you, though only for a while.
9 As it is, I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because you were grieved into repenting. For you felt a godly grief, so that you suffered no loss through us.
10 For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.
To understand this beatitude and experience the happiness it promises, we need to recognise sorrow that leads to misery and sorrow that leads to happiness.

John 14:6 (ESV)
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
As the time of Jesus’s crucifixion approached and He told His disciples that He must die on a cross, their hearts were distressed.
They could not understand the things He told them, understanding only came as they looked back and, by the Holy Spirit’s aid, recalled what He had said.
As Jesus revealed the necessity of Hid death and departure from them, He also gave them some wonderful promises concerning the heavenly Father’s home and the possibility of a continuing and unending fellowship with God and each other.
John 13:33-35 (ESV)
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
35 By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
In a way Jesus knew that His disciples could not understand that His death on a cross was the only way to provide salvation for humankind.
Today we can understand what Jesus meant when He said in John 14:6 (ESV)
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to season 2 episode 8 of Refinery Life TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God. Today we are going to talk about, You Are Unique. Jeremiah 29:11 (ESV) 11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare[a] and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Have you ever thought about everything that has led you to this moment right now in your life? Why you are here on this earth?, how you have become who you are? What caused you to watch this video or listen to this podcast? Or what has caused you to seek God’s plans for your life? Have you ever considered how much of it is random and how much has been designed? I believe that God knew exactly where you would be right now, and exactly what you would be like. He knew the platform you would have and the passions and gifts you possess. I believe that He was purposeful in designing your life. He made you to be significant and unique, and to have an eternal impact on the world around you. Just let that sink in for a moment. How differently would you live, if you really believed that God had intentionally designed you to have an impact on others? What steps of faith would you take if you knew that He had already planned them? What would you try and do if you knew and understood that God was fully backing you? Would you make a plan to do big things in your community? Would you go into local schools with a sense of authority and mission? What problems that seem impossible would all of a sudden be possible to solve? When you realise that you were designed with a purpose, you will live with a purpose. I understand that we all have areas we need to improve in, and just because we believe God designed us doesn’t mean we know what we were designed for. But God is a gracious God, He knows we will fall short, He knows that finding His will for our lives is a process. We will make mistakes along the way. Grace isn’t an excuse to give less than our best, but it is reassuring to know that God doesn’t pressure us to be perfect. When we fall, we can get up, dust ourselves off, and keep moving towards the goal. Whatever our past looks like, God has future plans for us. And His plans are always good. Don’t be scared to try big things that fit into God’s purpose. No problem is too big for Him to solve, it doesn’t matter if it’s in the lives of people around us, something on a national level, or even global, and anything in between. That means no problem is too big for us to attempt to solve in His strength. We were designed for a purpose like this.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
Our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Wednesdays with a 5 part series from Philippians 4 about the Pathway to Success.
Today is part two and we are talking about The Secret to Happiness.
Philippians 4:10-13 (ESV)
God's Provision
10 I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.
11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.
12 I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need.
13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
Introduction
Paul assured those who were concerned about him and were in his care that he had learned the secret of happiness.
Today, many people are searching for happiness.
All kinds of misguided pleasures and activities are followed in an effort to find the secret of happiness.
But Paul said that happiness is found in Christ.
Is todays scripture, Paul reiterated the purpose of his letter to the Philippians.
He thanked the people for the gift they had sent him.
Paul wanted them to know that he was not complaining because of any want or need on his part, rather he was appreciative of help when they could give it.
The NIV bible translates verse twelve, Paul said, “I have learned the secret of being content.”
Having learned the secret of happiness, he passed it onto us.
- The mastery of the extremes of life is a secret of happiness.
Paul had learned to master the extremes of life.
Whether he had plenty or little, whether he was full or hungry, he had found the contentment that comes from Christ in whatever circumstances he found himself.
Most people think being happy is about luck or fortune, they think happiness depends what happens to them.
Paul corrected this assumption by expressing that happiness does not depend on circumstances.
Instead, it depends on how we learn to master the extremes of life, or how we cope with the times when we have much or little.
2. Measurement of the source of power is a secret to happiness.
When Paul wrote to the Philippians in verse 4:13, he actually revealed the secret of happiness.
He had the source of power that enabled him to meet and master any situation.
Think of it this way, when the electricity goes off, people realise they have everything they need for power, the wiring, transformers, bulbs, appliances, and electronics, everything except the source of power itself.
Paul shared with us the source of power, Jesus Christ.
Jesus’s power is inexhaustible.
He constantly pours strength into the who trust Him.
The secret of happiness is not found in what happens to us.
It is found in what happened in us, the renewal of our lives through faith in Christ.
When we allow Jesus to replenish us, we have endless power pumping into our lives.
Until next time
Stay in the Blessings

This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Sundays with “The Way to Happiness”.
Everyone wants to be happy, and the New Testament is the greatest authority on happiness.
Jesus gives is the key that will unlock the door to happiness.
This key is found in the eight Beatitudes.
Did you know the word “Blessed” is sometimes translated as “Happy”.
Today we are going to start with Humility, The way to Happiness.
Text
Matthew 5:3 (ESV)
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Name the eight things that would make you happy.
If God said to you today, the first Sunday of 2020, “Choose eight things that you feel that would make you happy this year and I will give them to you,” what would you choose?
Would you choose to be poor in spirit?
Would you choose things like mourning, meekness, hunger and thirst, being merciful, being pure of heart, being a peace maker, or experiencing persecution?
Do you think these eight things would make you happy?
Jesus seems to think so.
Before you decide that Jesus is wrong, consider the opposite of these qualities.
Characteristics like pride, pleasure seeking, aggressiveness, compromising, impurity, cruelty, and hatred.
You couldn’t be happy with these characteristics could you?
Of course not!
So we need to consider the eight beatitudes as eight steps to happiness.
Humility is the way to happiness.
In Matthew 5;3 when Jesus spoke of being “poor in spirit,” He was referring to our recognition of both our spiritual neediness and the means that can supply our need.
This poverty of spirit, being poor in spirit, results in the discovery of God’s kingdom.
People who are poor in spirit do not boast of their attainments or talents because they know that they have nothing that has not been given to them.
Why is humility the way to happiness?

Today we are going to talk about, First Things First.
Matthew 6:33 (ESV)
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
When I'm asked to do something, I often think of this verse.
The truth contained within is helpful to structure my days and maintain focus.
How do you begin to set the right priorities for your life with the pull of everything the world says is important?
It isn’t easy but its absolutely essential if you want to make sure you don’t miss the things that really matter.
When we look at todays verse some people have a tendency to read the first part quickly, so they can get to the last part, "and all these things will be added to you.”
And if we are honest, we would probably admit that we would prefer to receive the last part without the first part, focusing on what we “need”.
Its the stuff that happens each day, the pressing needs all around us, even if they are good things that can take our focus away from what matter the most, our relationship with God, and the people He has put in our lives.
But look at the verse again, "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness”
How can you do that?
With all the challenges, obstacles, and everything that is urgent each day, is it even possible?
Let me suggest that you keep doing what you are doing right now, taking a few minutes to be quite and spend time with God.
When you do you will be surprised at how He will lessen you worries about tomorrow, and release you from the tiresome pace of the world’s urgent priorities for today so you can make room for His priorities.
Dedicating time for the priorities god has entrusted you with may not seem a big deal right now, but to someone who needs you, it can make all the difference in their life and in yours.
Starting today seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and watch as all these things will be added to you.
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to season 2 episode 5 of Refinery Life TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Reaching Our Goals.
1 Chronicles 4:10 (ESV)
10 Jabez called upon the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that you would bless me and enlarge my border, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from harm so that it might not bring me pain!” And God granted what he asked.
I don’t know too many people that are content to stay where they are without any improvements increase.
God has wired us to want to grow, some people just haven’t worked out that that’s God’s plan not theirs.
But what type of growth are we looking for?
We have to be careful to focus on what’s important and what’s within our control, as opposed to external results that we have no control over.
My goals are usually qualitative not quantitive, to have a spirit of excellence as opposed to having a lot.
To do the best I can with what I have.
I have always wanted to learn and progress by doing, not just having book knowledge.
Constantly moving further forward towards the plan God has for me.
Sometimes our goals are a steady step by step path, and sometimes they require risk.
Whenever we ask God to enlarge our territories, we need faith to move to the next level.
That always come with the chance of failure, although we can trust God to be with us either to help us reach our goal or to catch us when we fail.
Over time these incremental steps of faith pay off.
We grow and improve and reach even higher goals.
It is important to remember to focus on goals that are within your control.
When you do your part to prepare, you can trust God for the results.
In His timing, He is the one who enlarges your territory.
Your job is to make yourself ready for it.
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to season 2 episode 4 of Refinery Life TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, The Best Role Model Ever.
Philippians 3:12 (ESV) talks about Straining Toward the Goal
12 Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.
We as Christians have the perfect role model.
Christ is our example when it comes to how we treat people.
Christ is our example on the influence we can and should have on those around us.
Christ is the ultimate and eternal role model we are called to be.
No one even comes close.
As we read the scriptures it is revealed that Jesus was always finding people right where they were at, and taking them where they needed to be.
He was always seeking people who thought they were nobody and made them into somebody.
In todays verse, Paul makes it clear that the goal we pursue, here on earth and later in heaven, is Jesus Himself.
He is the example we are to follow, the person we are meant to be like.
We won’t reach perfection until the time when we see Him face to face, but we are called to always be moving towards Him.
In His strength we press on towards the goal, one day at a time.
Only He can make us who we need to be if we focus on Him and allow Him to work through us.
The same Jesus who went around making somebodies out of nobodies is still at work right now in our lives.
Gos has a purpose in shaping us to be like Jesus.
We become His influence, His hands and heart, for and to everyone around us.
Wherever we find ourselves, we can influence people for His glory.
That begins at home in our families, but extends into every area of life, our friends, coworkers, neighbours, other church members, everyone we come into contact with.
God doesn’t just glorify Himself by sending Jesus into the world.
If we let him, He glorifies Himself by sending Jesus into the world through us.
Remember that you are a personal representative of Jesus.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to season 2 episode 3 of Refinery Life TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, The importance of back up.
Revelation 21:1-2 (ESV) talks about The New Heaven and the New Earth
21 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
It is important to practice and discuss our faith with other Christians.
I remember when I was at school, at football training we used to have another team, often our reserves play and train against us to simulate a real game and to practice planned plays.
This visualisation and practice ensured we knew exactly what to do on game day.
Visualisation increases our chances of success, not just in sport but in any part of life.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
This year our goal is to release a new video / Podcast every Monday Wednesday and Friday.
To begin the new year we are starting on Wednesdays with a 5 part series from Philippians 4 about the pathway to success.
Today we are going to start with Some Personal Advice.
Philippians 4:9 (ESV)
9 What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
Introduction
We have all heard the saying. “Advice is cheap” and generally this is true.
But of all the advise we receive, we don’t expect someone to say to us, “You should be just like me”.
That however is the advice that Paul gave to the Philippians, Paul described what the elements of living that should mark the Christians life.
Then he ended by saying that they should do the things they had seen him do.
It might have been strange advice but it was still good advice.
This advice provides a model
Paul presents himself as the model to follow.
Each of us model our lives on someone else, how many times have we been able to see a child doing exactly the same things as their parents?
It has been said that we are the average of the five people we hang around the most.
So what are the things Paul says we should model after him?
Things we have learned.
Among the things that people had learned from Paul were the teachings of Jesus.
An instructor was needed to teach Christian living, so Paul supplied this instruction.
- Things we have received.
The new Christians at Philippi also received a body of Christian belief, or doctrine, from Paul.
Many times Paul defended what he called “his gospel,” which was the gospel of God’s grace.
We have also received the doctrine of Christ which is grace.
Pauls letter normally contained both a doctrinal and a practical part.
These two parts are outlined by the terms “learn” and “receive”.
Instruction in the doctrine of grace and Christian living are two things we should all model.
- Things we have heard and seen.
The characteristics we have observed.
I know a pastor that if they don’t get an exit row or an upgrade on a plane they get angry with the airline staff.
Now imagine if those same staff went to the pastor’s church to see how someone who gets so irate could preach Christ.
People can be easily turned away by what they observe in a Christian.
Motivation is provided in this advice
Paul said that the “God of peace will be with you”.
If we model our lives on the things we have learned, received, heard, and seen, we will know that the God of peace is part of our lives.
This isn’t just a theory, its a fact. Paul could tell everyone stories of when the God of peace was with him.
Paul passed on this piece of advice, which grew from personal experience.
If we follow this advice we will become stronger Christians.
Until next time

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to season 2 episode 2 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, A personal training plan.
1 Corinthians 9:27 (ESV)
27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control,[a] lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.
Self control.
Discipline.
Getting in shape.
A commitment to stick to a plan.
How many times have you written down your goals or even thought about them just before January 1?
Its not surprising to know that losing weight is the most common goal people set, and it would be safe to say this doesn’t change year after year.
This is what gyms around the world set up for, an influx of new customers and increased profits January more than any other time of year.
And then sometime around February, we come to our senses.
As followers of Christ, we should maintain self control and discipline, especially when it comes to taking care of our bodies.
Getting in shape and making a commitment to stay that way honours God.
He has given us our bodies through the miracle of creation.
Taking care of them, watching what we put into them, and being careful of how we use them each day are responsibilities we need to adopt.
This mind set is not only important for our physical bodies, but also our spiritual side, for the work and training we do and the commitment we make to ourselves and to God.
We commit to learn more about Him and about how we can be better disciples.
This can not be a passive journey.
It takes commitment and repetition, constantly working at it for the best results.
And results will happen as we grow closer to Him.
Real success in achieving goals comes when we know that we cannot do it on our own, and look to the Lord for strength.
Where do you need to improve?
Is it more time in the gym or out walking, to take care of the temple God gave you?
Or is it getting to know Him better, spending more time in the Word and with God in prayer?
Can I suggest that we all need to work on both on a regular basis.
Ask God to be your personal trainer, to be there when you need to be pushed a bit harder.
He will give you the strength to help make your goals a reality.
Until Tomorrow

Hey Everyone Im Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Season 2, Episode 1 of Refinery Life TV/Radio.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today is a longer episode, and we are going to talk about, Discovering Christ's Identity.
Can People Tell That You Have Been With Jesus?
Did you know that when we pray sometimes even if we have prayed a great prayer that it’s possible for some people to become offended?
The reason they become offended is because of the name of Jesus.
Did you ever think you would have lived in a time where the thought of mentioning the name of Jesus in a public place would bring such resistance.
I have found out that even today as I stand before you. People still have a problem with the fact that you IDENTIFY with a SAVIOUR who Died and Rose again 3 Days later!
Peter and John were arrested and tried. They were arrested "as they spoke," they were arrested while they were preaching.

Today is going to be our last episode of season one as we approach Christmas, but we are already getting ready for season 2 which will start in a week or so and include some longer episodes swell as the short episodes you are used to.
Today we are going to talk about, God gives us power to defeat our deepest fears.
Romans 8:31-39 (ESV) talks about God's Everlasting Love and says
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?
33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies.
34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
36 As it is written,
“For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,
39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
What ever you are fearful of, remember God has given you the power to defeat that fear.
Tap into His strength today and realise the freedom that only God can provide.
Until next season

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 86 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Knowing our Spiritual Authority.
Do you Know that our spiritual authority in prayer comes more from who we are than from what we pray.
It is not the specific words of our prayers that change things but the condition of our hearts and the obedience of our walk.
A transformed life is one that loves to do what we ought to do because we live, speak, and pray from a relationship that has radically changed us from the inside out.
John 15:7 says
“If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you”
Ask the Lord for an undivided heart and purity of faith in which to pray and intercede.
Pray to become a living demonstration of the power and authority of the Kingdom right where you are.
In our desire to see things change in our nation, let us remember that we are the ones who must change first.
If you think that you can pray for change and not change yourself its time for you to do some more bible study.
The same power that raised Christ from the dead lives inside us and has power to bring new life to every nation and every tribe.
As we are transformed, everything around us will begin to reflect the power of His Kingdom.
Let our prayers reflect this goal.
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 85 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Shifting our mentality.
We must in this time start to Shift from a warfare mentality to a presence reality.
Spiritual warfare may be necessary for a season but it was never intended to be a lifestyle.
We were created to live from and in God’s presence.
Acts 17:28 (ESV)
28 for “‘In him we live and move and have our being’;[a]
as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’
Isaiah 63:9 (ESV)
9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them; in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.
Psalm 27:4-6 (ESV)
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.
5 For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will lift me high upon a rock.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me, and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
We need to remember the supernatural power of God’s tangible presence in Isaiah 63:9.
Throughout biblical history, the greatest victories came because of God’s presence, not because of man’s skills at warfare, the battle of Jericho in Joshua 6; Jehoshaphat’s army in 2 Chronicles 20; the cloud of His presence at the Red Sea.
There is no glory in battle.
Our glory should be in the One who has already defeated the devil.
Start Spending time in celebrating the victory of our King and avoid fighting an enemy who has already lost.
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 84 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Addressing sin issues.
It’s time to Address the sin issues in this country and around the world.
Otherwise we are like dying carcasses on the land.
Why not address the issues instead of fighting the devil, which is just like chasing the vultures away once it's too late.
The only reason our spiritual adversary has any foothold, both personally and corporately, is because of sin and unbelief.
These attract the enemy just as rotting flesh on the ground attracts vultures.
Rebuking the enemy, shooting the vultures won’t do any good if we don’t deal with the sin, and remove the rotting flesh.
Living a holy and righteous life is one of the best means of attracting heaven and repelling hell
2 Corinthians 2:15 (ESV) says
15 For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing,
And Ephesians 5:2 (ESV) says
2 And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Now to me this sounds much better than being surrounded by dead rotting carcasses!
It's time to Pray for obedient hearts that quickly respond to His Word.
And Pray that we would not only “turn from our wicked ways” but demonstrate holy lives that attract Heaven.
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 83 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Focussing our prayers on the Kingdom.
We have to start to Focus our prayers on God’s increasing Kingdom instead of the world’s crumbling systems.
Apart from Christ, this world will continue to fall apart.
We shouldn’t be surprised at the failure of man’s attempts to secure peace and freedom, but we continually are.
God will continue to shake everything that can be shaken in order for the reality of His Kingdom to be clearly demonstrated through His people.
Lets look at Hebrews 12:27-28 (ESV)
27 This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe,
Instead of praying “against” things, let’s start to pray for the purposes of God to prevail!
Look at Psalm 24:9 (ESV)
9 Lift up your heads, O gates! And lift them up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
Start to Spend time in worship and praise so that the King of glory may come in.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 82 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Focussing our prayers on purpose.
We must Focus our prayers on declaring His purposes rather than on fixing the problems.
How often do you get distracted by everything happening around you?
It’s easy to get fixated on the issues at hand and forget His ultimate purpose in transformation.
Until we can displace the godlessness with true righteousness through Christ, cycles of sin will continue.
This requires a change of values and beliefs as we align our hearts and our prayers with God's eternal Word.
It’s time to Pray beyond the problem and declare His promise!
Pray God’s heart and will over the situations at hand, and don’t get distracted by the seeming discrepancies.
Until Tomorrow
Stay in the Blessings

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 81 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Maintaining Motivation and Purpose.
One of the challenges we all face is maintaining the larger vision and purpose of our prayers.
As we continue to pray for this nation in the midst of increased lawlessness, anarchy, and rebellion, it is easy to become discouraged and wonder if our prayers are working.
But, God is working behind the scenes to do much more than simply address the troubling issues of the day.
In His redemptive purposes, He uses the trials and setbacks, and even the enemy’s attacks, to sanctify us, make us holy, and become more like Himself
Ephesians 5:27 (ESV) says
27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendour, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.
Ultimately, He is not after our circumstances as much as He is after us.
Until we are changed, the culture around us won’t change.
The kind of transformation He desires always starts with His people.
2 Corinthians 3:18 says
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 80 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, God will tell you who you are.
1 Chronicles 4:9 NKJV says
‘His mother called his name Jabez.’
The name Jabez means ‘pain and trouble’.
Can you imagine walking into a room and hearing someone say, ‘Here comes trouble,’ or someone describing you as ‘a pain’?
And what’s more, his mother labelled Jabez that way the day he was born because she ‘gave birth to him in pain.’ (1 Chronicles 4:9 NIV)
But Jabez refused to let that name define him.
Instead of looking back at his past and listening to his critics, he turned to God and prayed: ‘“Oh, that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm, that it might not pain me!” And God granted him what he requested.’ (1 Chronicles 4:10 NASB)
The label on the outside of a bottle tells you what’s on the inside.
And when you let others label you, invariably they make your world too small.
And once you accept the label they place on you, you start to believe that’s who you are and that you’ll never amount to anything more than that.
No, only God can tell you who you are!
So do what Jabez did, go directly to the source: God.
He created you. He redeemed you. He calls you. He equips you. He empowers you. He rewards you.
So when people try to limit you by putting labels on you, God steps in and says, ‘Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.’ (Isaiah 43:1 NKJV)
The truth is that God loves and accepts you, and His approval trumps everybody else’s disapproval!
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 79 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Come back to God.
Luke 15:20 NKJV says
‘When he was still a great way off.’
The Bible says concerning the Prodigal Son:
‘While he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.’ (Luke 15:20 ESV)
The truth is, you’re not beyond the reach of God’s grace, so your future can be greater than your past! When he was ‘a great way off’, his father ran to him.
His relationship with his son wasn’t based on performance, but because he’d given him life and brought him into the family.
Think about the significance of the things the Prodigal received that day:
(1) The robe. That confirmed his identity as a son. God doesn’t see you in your weakness; He sees you clothed in the righteousness of Christ (see 2 Corinthians 5:18–21).
(2) The ring. This was a signet ring with the family seal that gave him back authority to do business in his father’s name.
(3) The shoes. Household servants didn’t wear shoes, only family members did.
He returned home thinking the best he could hope for was a job in the servants’ quarters. But his father not only restored his identity and authority, he restored him to full son-ship in the family.
(4) The party. Back then when you rebelled against your father’s authority and left home, they conducted ‘a ceremony of shame’, which meant you could never return.
Not this father, he threw a party!
The point?
Because Jesus took our shame! ‘For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.’ (2 Corinthians 5:21 NLT)
The message for you today is, come back to God!
Until Tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 78 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Resistance Training.
James 4:7 KJV says ‘Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.’
Have you ever watched someone doing resistance training?
They get stronger every day as they press more and more weight.
That’s how to view the verse ‘resist the devil’.
Satan is out to do three things: ‘Kill, steal, and destroy’ (see John 10:10).

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 76 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Teaching Opportunities.
It says ‘What do these stones mean?’ In Joshua 4:21 NIV
One of the most effective ways to teach is through ‘teaching moments’. Jesus did that.
When a fig tree didn’t produce fruit, He cursed it and it immediately withered up.
That got the disciples’ attention (see Matthew 21:18–22).
Then He explained that unless you stay filled with God’s Spirit, you won’t be fruitful in His service.

Luke 17:10 NKJV says
‘We have done what was our duty.’
If you have a tendency to remind people of all the good things you do and the sacrifices you make, read what Jesus said: ‘When you have done all those things which you are commanded, say…“We have done what was our duty to do.”’

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 74 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Living an anointed life.
1 John 2:27 NKJV says
‘The anointing which you have received from Him abides in you.’
The word ‘anoint’ means ‘to pour on and rub in’.
In the Old Testament a priest had oil poured over his head, symbolising the Spirit of God resting on him as he carried out his duties each day.
Today, let's read it again: ‘The anointing which you have received from Him abides in you.’
The word ‘abide’ simply means ‘to take up residence and live in’.
In other words, you’re a container for God’s Spirit.
And when His Spirit lives within you, it affects every area of your life.

Today we are going to talk about, Moving your Mountain.
Matthew 21:21 English Standard Version (ESV)
21 And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.
Jesus said, in Mark 11:23-24 (ESV)
23 Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.
24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
Jesus didn’t relocate any physical mountains as part of His ministry, so what was He talking about?

Today we are going to talk about, Being delivered from people pleasing.
Acts 26:17 (ESV)
17 delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you
Pauls ministry started when he met Jesus on the Damascus road.
In that encounter, Jesus said to him, in Acts 26:16-18 Version (ESV)
16 But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,
17 delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you
18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.faithministries.com.au.
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 71 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Counting our Days.
Psalm 23:6 (ESV)
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
It is hard to conceive, but there aren’t too many days left of this year.
Where did another year go?
As we progress towards the end of the year and the beginning of another, it is important that we evaluate how our time is being spent.
Our days on this earth are finite. Innately we know that, but do we really think about what that means?
There are 168 hours in a week, and if you sleep 8 hours per night, 56 hours of your week is already gone.
When you add in getting ready for work, commuting to work, being at work, and eating, the hours quickly dwindle away.
You must have time for your friends and family, but what about time for God?
How can you be sure to make enough time for the Lord of the universe?
I believe the answer can be found by walking with Christ throughout every moment of your life.
In all of your activities, great or small, He should be your ever present guest.
Invite the King of glory to share the days allotted to you now, and look forward to enjoying His presence throughout eternity.
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 70 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Defining Death.
2 Corinthians 5:8 (ESV)
8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
Perhaps the one thing that unites diverse cultures throughout history is the near universal belief in life after death.
The ancient Egyptians are a good example.
Archaeologists have revealed that the Egyptians buried their dead with pets, food, and even boats by which to navigate to the next life.
If nearly all world views hold to some sort of life after death, Christianity is the one that defines it with specifics.
For christians physical death is simply the temporary end of the life of the body.
God created humans to live forever, physically and spiritually.
But once sin entered the world, both body and spirit were subject to death.
It was necessary for both to be reborn.
Spiritual rebirth takes place ay the time we place our faith in Christ, while physical rebirth will occur at the resurrection of the dead after we leave the earth, or at the rapture for those who are alive when it happens.
Christians have no reason to fear death since their conscious spirit will always be in the presence of the Lord, that’s what our scripture today 2 Corinthians 5:8 tells us.
Make sure your fear of death is removed by faith in the Christ of Resurrection!
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 69 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Preach the Word.
2 Corinthians 4:5 (ESV)
5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
The apostle Paul preached the Word because he couldn’t do anything else and still remain in the will of God. Have a read of 1 Corinthians 1:17 and 9:16.
If Paul was still with us today, he would likely show us the amazing work God did through his ministry in Corinth.
He would help us see that our goal should be to share the same message.
What did Paul preach?
First, he revealed what a sinner is.
Sinners and their sin made it necessary for Christ to go to the cross.
Second, Paul revealed what a saviour is.
When he preached Christ, he preached the doctrine of a saviour who died on a cross.
Third, he preached what sin is, something so heinous that it would nail the Son of God to the cross.
Fourth, he preached what salvation is, everlasting life in heaven with the Lord.
In light of the second coming, the world needs to hear the message of the Saviour who came to redeem us from our sins.
Have you spoken the message of hope to someone lately?
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 68 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Live in the Spirit.
Colossians 3:2 (ESV)
2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
When Jesus walked on the earth, no one would have considered Him a success.
He wasn’t wealthy or politically powerful.
Yet no life has been more influential, for Jesus taught people a new way to live.
“Success” to Him was not wealth or power, but a deep and abiding love for God.
His message was unique, love your enemy, pray in secret, turn the other cheek.
His listeners had never heard this before.
Jesus told them not to be satisfied with external conformity to the Old Testament, but move toward an internal conformity to the character of God.
Jesus presented a whole new paradigm to the first century audience.
Some of them struggled and rejected His message, but others embraced His words and placed their faith in Him.
Jesus’s message has not changed.
His plan for our lives is unique, especially amid a culture that does not follow His truth.
As His messengers to a lost world, we must be willing to live our lives according to His principals.
In all we do, we must chose words and actions that reflect the transforming power of His Word.
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.faithministries.com.au.
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 67 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Problems and Perspective.
Psalm 119:71 (AMP)
It is good for me that I have been afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes.
Think about this.
You and your friend have been close for years, you have never had a cross word between you.
But suddenly, you find yourself reacting with harsh, impatient words.
You think to yourself where did that come from? And your friend looks st you with a puzzled expression as if asking the same thing.
If you were to look beneath the problem, perhaps you would find a wound that needs healing, a jealousy that needs confessing, or a resentment in need of repentance.
Problems in life are tools in the Holy Spirits hands to reveal things to us we might never otherwise have considered.
Things like the truth about God, or about others, and especially about ourselves.
If we respond to the perspective God allows us to see, we can come out more mature on the other side.
Think about this, a lesson unlearned is a lesson returned.
Remember how Paul asked God to take away his problem in 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 (ESV)
7 So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited.
8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me.
9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
God said no to Paul, but Paul saw something new.
He realised that God’s grace is sufficient, so much so that he began opening his arms to problems in order to experience more grace.
The next time you experience a problem, pray for a new perspective, and open your heart to embrace what God reveals.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 66 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Belonging To Jesus.
Colossians 3:4 (AMP)
4 When Christ, who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
Have you ever been in the middle of a group of people but somehow felt alone?
Maybe the group was a bunch of strangers or casual acquaintances at work, perhaps it was even family members.
Just because your surrounded doesn’t mean you will always feel connected.
Jesus, however offers a connection and a belonging that works from the inside out.
Once He comes into your heart, infiltrating your life, you never have to be disconnected again.
This is a reminder that belonging to Jesus is the ultimate belonging you can experience with your creator and Saviour.
Joy will flood your soul, once you fully realise you have been saved from the sin that enslaved you for so long.
And the best part is knowing that belonging to Jesus is not just for now but for eternity!
Have you truly made the commitment to Christ so that you can say that you belong to Him?
Experience the greatest sense of belonging possible through new life in Him when you ask Him to become your Lord and Saviour.
Then you can truely say “I belong to Jesus"
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 65 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Seeing Around the Bend.
Deuteronomy 31:8(AMP)
8 It is the Lord who goes before you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or abandon you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
Imagine your driving at night through a mountainous area.
There are no street lights on the winding narrow road.
As you slowly approach another sharp turn in the road, your headlights shine straight ahead into the dark.
The road bends but your headlights don’t. You can see what is on the side of the bend, but around the curve, there is only darkness and the unknown.
That’s how we often feel when we approach bends in the road of life.
And it must have been how Moses and Joshua felt as they prepared to take the children of Israel into the promised land.
On their side of the Jordan river, they could see clearly, but the Canaan side was a mystery.
Moses told the people not to fear, that God would be with them, that He would never leave them nor forsake them.
And God later told Joshua the same thing in Joshua 1:5 (AMP) He said
5 No man will [be able to] stand before you [to oppose you] as long as you live. Just as I was [present] with Moses, so will I be with you; I will not fail you or abandon you.
If your knowledge of the future goes only so far, and you are approaching a sharp curve, know that God is with you now and will be with you on the other side.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 64 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Tearing Down the Walls.
Mark 10:21 (AMP)
21 Looking at him, Jesus felt a love (high regard, compassion) for him, and He said to him, “You lack one thing: go and sell all your property and give [the money] to the poor, and you will have [abundant] treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me[becoming My disciple, believing and trusting in Me and walking the same path of life that I walk].”
The Great Wall of China is a barrier so large it can be seen from space.
It was built to protect the Chinese empire from invading tribes.
While physical barriers are often built to protect, spiritual barriers can seperate us from things we need.
The young man in todays scripture had many good things in life, and he hoped to add eternal life to his list.
His heart was pointed in the right direction, but a barrier kept him from accepting Christ.
Jesus understood this barrier, and He cut through the conversation with a prescription for its removal.
In telling the young man to sell his possessions, Jesus helped the young man see that he valued his earthly possessions more than eternal reward.
Until the young man put God first, the barrier to heaven would be insurmountable.
What barriers keep you from complete fellowship with the Lord today?
Be honest with yourself and Him.
Examine your life and confess the barriers that have been built, then tear them down in heartfelt prayer to God.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 63 of Refinery Life radio /TV. Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God. Today we are going to talk about, Burdens. Psalm 68:19 (AMP) says 19 Blessed be the Lord, who bears our burden day by day, The God who is our salvation! If you have ever been hiking, you know that backpacks can get heavy after a while. Packed with everything you need, backpacks can make your shoulders ache and your back hurt. But step into a bus or into a taxi or Uber, and feel the relief of letting the burden slip away from your shoulders as the backpack is carried by the same vehicle that is carrying you. You still have your back pack, you have not lost your burden, but now something else is bearing it. The NIV bible puts Psalm 68:19 like this. 19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Saviour, who daily bears our burdens. The English standard version puts it a little differently. Psalm 68:19 (ESV) 19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up; God is our salvation. And the New King James Version says. Psalm 68:19 (NKJV) 19 Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, The God of our salvation! Which translation is best? Why not choose all of them and praise our Saviour whoo daily bears our burdens, bears us up, and loads us with benefits.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 62 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, What God Puts in Our Hearts.
Nehemiah 2:12 (AMP)
12 Then I got up in the night, I and a few men with me. I did not tell anyone what my God was putting in my heart to do for Jerusalem, and there was no animal with me except the one on which I was riding [so as not to attract attention].
The book of Nehemiah, relates to his burden for rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem.
The moment he heard of the distress of his city, he began praying, fasting, and seeking God’s will. Nehemiah 1:4 (AMP) says
4 Now it came about when I heard these words, I sat down and wept and mourned for days; and I was fasting and praying [constantly] before the God of heaven.
Nehemiah’s concern deepened until king Artaxerxes noticed it on his face in Nehemiah 2:2 (AMP)
2 So the king said to me, “Why do you look sad when you are not sick? This is nothing but sadness of heart.” Then I was very frightened,
Traveling to Jerusalem, Nehemiah surveyed the ruined walls and devised a plan for their rebuilding.
At first, he told no-one what God had put on his heart to do.
But at the right moment he revealed his plan, mobilised the people, and persevered until the work was done.
Have you seen a need?
Have you prayed with a burden?
Our work for Him isn't a personal ambition we seek.
It's a vision he places on our hearts, perhaps we become involved in rehabilitation, to ministering to the homeless, working in children’s ministry, visiting nursing homes, evangelising the lost, planning missions trips.
Myself and Amanda have been working in the dark not revealing our plan that God gave us, and it is now time to rebuild the walls.
For us its the walls of the church and to bring the church to having God at the centre again.
What has God put in your heart to do?
What can you do today to make your vision a reality?
Let God know today, that you want His wisdom and are willing to turn around and come back to Him.
Acknowledge that you don’t want entertainment but you want a relationship with your creator.
Commit to God today that because He has given you the gift of salvation for free that you will repent and share it with others.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Wisdom For Each Day.
Proverbs 4:5-11 (AMP)
5 “Get [skillful and godly] wisdom! Acquire understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]!
Do not forget nor turn away from the words of my mouth.
6 “Do not turn away from her (Wisdom) and she will guard and protect you;
Love her, and she will watch over you.
7 “The beginning of wisdom is: Get [skillful and godly] wisdom [it is preeminent]!
And with all your acquiring, get understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation].
8 “Prize wisdom [and exalt her], and she will exalt you;
She will honour you if you embrace her.
9 “She will place on your head a garland of grace;
She will present you with a crown of beauty and glory.”
10 Hear, my son, and accept my sayings,
And the years of your life will be many.
11 I have instructed you in the way of [skillful and godly] wisdom;
I have led you in upright paths.
What are you seeking? Is it godly wisdom or lip service and entertainment?
Let God know today, that you want His wisdom and are willing to turn around and come back to Him.
Acknowledge that you don’t deserve your salvation and haven’t done anything for it.
Commit to God today that because He has given you the gift of salvation for free that you will repent and share it with others.
Not just telling someone about God and walking away but actually discipling someone.
Are you hiding? Or are you going to be revealed as a child of God?

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Eternal Hope for life.
Galatians 2:16 (AMP)
16 yet we know that a man is not justified [and placed in right standing with God] by works of the Law, but [only] through faith in [God’s beloved Son,] Christ Jesus. And even we [as Jews] have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the Law. By observing the Law no one will ever be justified [declared free of the guilt of sin and its penalty].
And then in Galatians 2:19-20 (AMP)
19 For through the Law I died to the Law and its demands on me [because salvation is provided through the death and resurrection of Christ], so that I might [from now on] live to God.
20 I have been crucified with Christ [that is, in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body I live by faith [by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting] in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
Do you understand that you are justified only through faith in Jesus and not by any works you do?
Let God know today, that you understand that you are justified by Him alone.
And that you acknowledge that you don’t deserve your salvation and haven’t done anything for it.
Commit to God today that because He has given you the gift of salvation for free that you will share it with others.
Not just telling someone about God and walking away but actually discipling someone.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 58 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Eternal Hope for life.
Ephesians 2:4-8 (AMP) says
4 But God, being [so very] rich in mercy, because of His great and wonderful love with which He loved us,
5 even when we were [spiritually] dead and separated from Him because of our sins, He made us [spiritually] alive together with Christ (for by His grace—His undeserved favour and mercy—you have been saved from God’s judgment).
6 And He raised us up together with Him [when we believed], and seated us with Him in the heavenly places, [because we are] in Christ Jesus,
7 [and He did this] so that in the ages to come He might [clearly] show the immeasurable and unsurpassed riches of His grace in [His] kindness toward us in Christ Jesus [by providing for our redemption].
8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;
Speak to God today, let Him know that you understand that you are seated with Him.
And that you acknowledge that you don’t deserve your salvation and haven’t done anything for it.
Commit to God today that because He has given you the gift of salvation for free that you will share it with others.
Not just telling someone about God and walking away but actually discipling someone.
Are you hiding? Or are you going to be revealed as a child of God?
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.faithministries.com.au.
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 56 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Well done.
There is a coming day when your time on earth will end.
But hopefully that won’t be true about your influence as a man or woman after God’s own heart.
As you are faithful to pour out your life into your family, your friends, your work mates, and fellow believers at church, your influence will live on in their lives.
You’ll be gone, but God’s work done through you will continue.
You, as his messenger, will no longer speak, but God’s message will live on.
May you never lose sight of the calling to live as a man or woman after God’s own heart.
For in the end, you’ll get the greatest reward anyone could ever hope to receive, that of hearing the Lord Jesus Christ say to you, “Well done good and faithful servant.”
Speak to God today, let Him know that you don’t know how many decades you will have to serve him, but that you do have today.
And that when today ends and you are still here that you will sense that He is whispering to you, “well done"
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 55 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, A living bible.
Have you ever considered that for some people in your life that you may be the only Christian they know?
Does that scare you a little?
They might see believers on TV or online, but often those people are porttered in a negative light.
You may be the only Christian they can interact with in person.
It has been said “you are a living bible. Known and read by men” if this is the case, what does the bible say according to you?
Are you exhibiting a proper representation of Christianity?
Are you kind, thoughtful, and approachable?
What would people say about God based on what they see in your life?
What does the bible say according to you?
Let God know that this sounds like a massive responsibility but as His representative, you are willing.
Ask Him to speak to others through your words and actions.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 54 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Men Growing Men.
This message today is for the guys.
You are most likely grateful for those spiritually mature men who have taken time to help you grow as a Christian.
Likewise, everything you do for the next generation of Christian men will and should elicit their gratitude as well.
When it come to choosing the right men to pour your life into, what should you look for?
Look for faithful men. Find men who are trustworthy, who keep their word.
Look for available men. Find men who are willing to sacrifice their time for ministry training.
Look for teachable men. Find men who are eager to learn. Their hunger will ensure your time and energy are well spent.
Speak to God today about the thought of pouring your life into younger Christians and how intimidating it is.
Ask Him to open the doors, and help you share simply with others the things He has taught you.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 53 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Your Legacy.
What will you leave behind when you are gone?
As you well know, only that which is spiritual will last.
If all you leave behind are personal memories, they will fade with time.
If you leave financial security and provisions, that will take care of people’s temporary physical needs, but nothing more.
Remember as a rule the first generation builds wealth, the second generation enjoys the wealth they didn’t build and the third generation wastes and loses the wealth the first generation worked for and built.
By contrast, if you leave a godly example and you have helped people grow more spiritually strong, you will have given gifts that last for eternity.
You will have left treasures that can be passed on to future generations of believers.
That, in a very real way, is what it means to do what it says in Matthew 6:19-20 (AMP)
19 “Do not store up for yourselves [material] treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal;
Ask God today how your heavenly treasure account is going.
Ask Him to show you some simple ways that you can make an everlasting impression on others and help them follow Him.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 52 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Assessing your impact.
The closer you get to another person, the more influence you will have on that persons life.
And that brings up some important questions.
Who are you getting close to?
Who are you pouring your life into?
Will you one day be able to join the apostle Paul in saying as he did in 2 Timothy 4:7 (AMP)
7 I have fought the good and worthy and noble fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith [firmly guarding the gospel against error]. Because you have equipped others to excel in following the Lord and serving him?
Remember it’s not the number or stature that’s important here.
Influencing your children and those closest to you takes priority over those outside your home.
And it’s far better to influence a few people well than many people poorly.
Adhering to these principals will help you finish the race well.
Ask God today, if your family feels close to you? Ask Him who you are influencing for good.
Ask for Him to help you to be a good steward of the relationships He has given you.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, A Pattern to Follow.
Jesus was the greatest mentor of all time.
He took a motley bunch of uneducated, ill equipped Men and, in three years, moulded them into a force that turned the world upside down.
Here is what we can learn from His example.
There can be no impact without contact!
Jesus spent time with his men. He taucht by word and by example, He cared for them, and was patient with them.
He looked for men who were willing to learn!
He called them to the ministry, they eagerly followed. They made mistakes, but were willing to listen and obey.
He expected His disciples to make disciples!
Jesus commanded them to carry on His work. We are now part of that work, and we are to pass it on to others.
Speak to God today and ask Him to empower you to follow His example.
Ask Him to help you pay attention to others, and learn from them, and to offer your input when they are willing to receive it.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings. I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 50 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Imparting your life.
One reason the apostle Paul’s ministry still affects us today is that he was thoroughly focused on pouring his life into other people.
To the church leaders in Ephesus he said in Acts 20:20 (AMP)
20 [you know] how I did not shrink back in fear from telling you anything that was for your benefit, or from teaching you in public meetings, and from house to house,
And he did this for three years it tells us in Acts 20:31 (AMP)
31 Therefore be continually alert, remembering that for three years, night or day, I did not stop admonishing and advising each one [of you] with tears.
To the Christians in Thessalonica he said 1 Thessalonians 2:8 (AMP)
8 Having such a deep affection for you, we [a]were delighted to share with you not only God’s good news but also our own lives, because you had become so very dear to us.
And he worked with Timothy for fifteen years, equipping him to carry the baton of leadership.
The famous preacher John Wesley said, “God buries His workmen, but His work goes on.”
Are you that kind of workman?
Are you pouring yourself into others, including your children?
If so your impact will continue long after you are gone, even if you don’t see it now.
Ask God to help you honestly assess your impact on others.
Ask Him to show you who you should pour your life into, and how you should do it.
Ask Him to show you how to influence others for good through His power and Spirit.
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 49 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Going beyond what is expected.
To excel at something is to go over and above the normal.
It means doing more than what is expected.
Its about taking the extra step, the extra time, the extra effort in what ever you do.
Yes, it's hard work, but in the end, if you persevere, it will pay off.
Taking some extra time with your wife, or your husband, and children will result in closer, stronger relationships with them.
Going the extra mile on the job will gain appreciation from your boss and co workers.
Giving that extra effort as you serve in your church or help someone in need will bring blessings to others.
Without question, it pays to give your very best.
Why don’t you ask the Lord to strengthen your resolve to strive for excellence in all that you do?
Ask Him today to show you where you have been cutting corners.
Ask Him to empower you through His Word and Spirit to go beyond what is expected so you can demonstrate His amazing love.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Committing to Excellence.
The quality of your life will be determined by the depth of your commitment to excellence.
With that in mind here are some questions you can ask yourself.
What are the most important commitments in your life?
Can you honestly say you are giving your best to those commitments?
How can you do better at carrying out those commitments, and what price are you willing to pay to make it happen?
These questions will help you evaluate your priorities, and your answers will enable you to determine how to best spend your time and energy.
Seek God today and ask Him to help you be honest and assess what you are actually committed to.
Ask Him if you need to reprioritise your commitments.
Ask Him what steps you need to take to follow through, ask Him to lead you.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, cultivating inner purity.
What are some practical ways you can keep your inner life pure?
How about developing some firm convictions about doing what is right according to God’s Word.
What about maintaining a life of discipline that encourages holiness and avoids temptation.
Why not make some goals and be sure that they are God centred and not self centred.
Hide God’s word in your heart so it shapes your decisions and choices.
Live a servant orientated life, focused on others rather than yourself.
Yielding your inner life to God in these ways will empower you to live the kind of outer life that honours the Lord and blesses others.
Let God know today that you want to live your life from the inside out.
Pray that your convictions, personal discipline, and goals are up to date and shaped by His word.
Pray that you can serve others with a pure heart.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 46 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, the hidden you.
The vast majority of an iceberg is hidden under water.
And what’s true about icebergs is also tru about you.
Your inner life, much like the mass of an iceberg, is hidden from the public eye.
Yet the way you handle your secret life will always have an impact on the part people see.
This is why the bible says in Numbers 32:23 (AMP)
And be sure that your sin will find you out.
And in Proverbs 23:7 (AMP)
7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he [in behavior—one who manipulates].
What ever is true about your heart will eventually surface for all to see.
Only when your inner life is right will your outer life be right as well.
Is there anything you need to bring to God today so the inner hidden part of you doesn’t impair your outer influence?
Speak to God today, let Him know that He is the only one who knows everything in your heart.
Ask Him to cleanse you, and heal you, so that you can live with a whole heart and a pure single focus.
Until tomorrow
Stay in the blessings
I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.
When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.
Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!
You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.faithministries.com.au.
When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.
So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 45 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, a life without regrets.
Paul saw his life as a sacrificial offering to God.
He wrote in 2 Timothy 4:6-7 (AMP)
6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure [from this world] is at hand and I will soon go free.
7 I have fought the good and worthy and noble fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith [firmly guarding the gospel against error].
Because Paul had given his all, he could say he was ready to leave earth.
He didn’t have any regrets haunting him.
With the Lord’s help, he had done his job well, like a soldier who has completed his mission, or a runner that has finished the race.
Are you living that in the end you will have no regrets?
Endeavour, by God’s grace, to live each Day to its fullest, and give your all.
Acknowledge God today, let Him know that you are aware that the race is long, but you are committed to running well as He fills you with strength.
Ask Him to empower you to live everyday in a way that you will finish the race with no regrets.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 44 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, when the going gets tough.
A servant of God is willing to endure pain, suffering, and persecution in order to accomplish God’s work.
Remember the apostle Paul?
He faced tremendous adversity, prisons, beatings, and even ship wreck.
Yet his ministry bore much fruit, all because he was willing to keep going.
How firm are you in your commitment to serve?
Do you give up easily at the smallest sign of resistance?
Or are you willing to withstand the opposition that often arises in the course of serving the Lord?
When you find yourself getting discouraged, remember the examples of Paul and Jesus.
They paid a great price, yet realised even greater gains.
Hang in there, because what you do will reap eternal rewards.
Thank God today for strengthening you with all power according to His might so that you can have endurance and patience.
God is committed to you, let Him know you are committed to Him.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 43 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Giving your all.
When you serve, sometimes you can fall into the mind set that because you're doing it for free, or because people should be grateful for your sacrifice, its OK if you do less than your best.
You may rationalise that it's alright to cut corners.
But a good servant gives their all.
For example, the apostle Paul told the Christian leaders in Ephesus, in Acts 20:31 (AMP)
31 Therefore be continually alert, remembering that for three years, night or day, I did not stop admonishing and advising each one [of you] with tears.
He sacrificed himself without ceasing, and to the point of tears!
Do you look at your opportunities to serve as a stewardship from God?
When you do, you’ll find yourself motivated to serve with excellence.
Ask God today to help you serve with excellence, and that you are mindful that your service is pleasing to Him.
Thank God for Paul’s inspiring example and that you have the opportunity to follow in his footsteps.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, A heart for service.
If your desire is for God to use you more as a servant, the most important first step you can make is to make sure your serving those who live under your roof, your wife or husband and your children.
What you are at home is what you are!
Then look at your major life commitments, like your job.
There you will find plenty of opportunities to show Christlike love, sacrifice, and patience towards others.
If you belong to a club or sports team, showing a servants heart in everything you do will cause people to see God and Christianity in a positive light.
The more you manifest the servants heart in all you do, the more of an impact you will have on peoples lives.
Ask God today to open your eyes so you can see the opportunities to serve your family, your co workers, and your friends.
Ask Him to help you serve with joy as He strengthens you through His word and spirit.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 41 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, For the good of others.
By definition, serving others means being willing to make sacrifices for their good.
A supreme example of this is the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:30-37.
He sacrificed time by stopping to help the wounded traveler.
He sacrificed his possessions by bandaging and dressing the mans wounds.
He sacrificed his personal transportation by carrying the man to an inn.
He sacrificed his life by taking care of the man personally.
He sacrificed his money by giving a days wages, essentially a blank cheque to an innkeeper he didn’t know for the continued cars of the wounded man.
Do you think the Good Samaritan had a positive impact?
Without a doubt he did!
When you serve, don’t focus on what you have given up, but on what others have gained.
Remind yourself today that all you have is Gods.
Ask Him to help you joyfully sacrifice your time and possessions for others today, being mindful that He will supply all you need according to His riches and glory.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, What service communicates .
Do you realise that even if you say nothing to the people you serve, you are still teaching volumes?
You nurture others by your Christlike example of selfless service.
What wife wouldn’t be built up and encouraged by a husband who loved her by helping make her job as a mother and wife easier?
What child wouldn’t be motivated and inspired to follow Christ after having seen the Lord’s love demonstrated by his or her own father?
What co worker wouldn't see that there’s something different about a Christian when you serve wholeheartedly without complaint?
Your nurturing service to others at home, at church, or on the job providing help, encouragement, and hope will point unbelievers towards God and edify believers in their faith.
Speak to God today and ask Him to help your humble service today shout out the good news that He is reconciling and restoring us to His original design.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Energised by love.
There is no greater example of loving service than that shown by a mother.
It is remarkable the great sacrifice a mother makes for her children when they are feeling sick or they are going through struggles in their life.
Did you know that the apostle Paul served with that type of love?
In his letter to the Christians in Thessalonica, he wrote,
7 But we behaved gently when we were among you, like a devoted mothertenderly caring for her own children.
8 Having such a deep affection for you, we [a]were delighted to share with you not only God’s good news but also our own lives, because you had become so very dear to us.
1 Thessalonians 2:7-8 (AMP)
Is your service energised by love as well?
Do you show love to those you serve?
Confess to God today that sometimes your love is shallow and weak.
Ask Him to pour His love into you and through you to touch the people you meet today, especially those who feel rejected and alone.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 38 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, It really does matter.
Sometimes we do an act of service and then get the feeling that it wasn’t a valuable enough contribution to the church.
Or we feel that no-one noticed or cared.
Therefore we feel what we did was a failure and it really didn’t matter.
But no service the is done for God is a failure.
Even though from a human standpoint your labours may be overlooked or under appreciated, from a Devine standpoint that is never the case.
God knows everything you do, and He will bless and reward you accordingly.
While recognition and thank you are nicety receive, they are not the reason to serve the Lord.
You serve to please and honour Him.
And the joy that comes from serving Him well will satisfy you more than any human applause could.
Thank God today that He sees everything, even what is done in secret.
Ask Him that as you find opportunities to serve today, that He help you remember that your reward comes from Him.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Leading by serving.
Im sure you will agree that Jesus Christ was the most influential mans who ever lived.
No one has ever or ever will match the impact He had.
What makes Him all the more remarkable is He wasn’t an autocrat, a leader running riot all over people or demanding respect and obedience.
Instead, He was a humble servant.
Mark 10:45 (AMP) says
45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
After He performed the lowly task of washing the disciples feet, He said in John 13:15 (AMP)
15 For I gave you [this as] an example, so that you should do [in turn] as I did to you.
Whose feet could you wash today?
What opportunities do you have to serve right now rather than be served?
Acknowledge Jesus today as the King of kings and the Lord of lords, even as He chose to be a humble servant.
Ask Him today to help you follow in His footsteps as He gives you opportunities to serve those around you.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Your weapon against temptation.
Have you ever noticed how Jesus handled temptation?
When satan tempted Jesus during the forty days in the wilderness, Jesus responded to every temptation by saying, “It is written……It is written…..It is written” in Matthew 4:4-10.
Why?
Because God’s Word is truth, and only truth can refute the lies satan sends our way when he tempts us.
Satan wants us to believe sin will give us pleasure and satisfaction.
By contrast, God’s truth warns that sin leads to guilt and emptiness.
Are you armed with God’s Word?
Do you know what it says?
Are you fighting your battles against temptation with the sword of the spirit, The Word of God?
Get to know what your Bible says about the kinds of temptations you face.
Ask God today to help you identify the lies that you will be bombarde with today, including the lies you will tell yourself.
Thank Him for arming you with the truth and teaching you to use the sword of the spirit effectively.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 35 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Protecting yourself.
God promised that when it comes to temptation, He has provided “the way of escape” in 1 Corinthians 10:13
But even before you get to the point you are tempted, there are measures you can take to protect yourself from falling into sin.
First, you have God’s Word, which helps you discern right from wrong.
Reading, listening to, and obeying it will help you resist sin.
Second, you can avoid places and situations where you might be tempted.
Third, you can avoid getting involved with people who might pressure you to participate in sin.
And fourth, avoid allowing your eyes to roam.
Job “made a covenant with his eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman” in Job 31:1
Providing temptation with fewer opportunities to strike is a great way to protect and preserve yourself.
Ask God today to not lead you into temptation today. Ask Him to help you make smart choices about where you go, what you will fill your mind with, and who you spend your time with.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 34 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Winning the battle.
When it comes to temptation, you are not alone.
The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10:13 that this struggle is “common to man”
That means that we all battle with temptation and sin.
And thankfully, God has given you the resources you need for victory.
A new law, Life in Christ.
A guide, The Holy Spirit.
A guide book, the Bible.
And guides, wise counsellors
So you are fully equiped to withstand the temptations you face each day.
Statements of “I can’t” no longer apply to us. In Jesus, its “I can!”
Paul said in Philippians 4:13 (AMP)
13 I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.]
Affirm to God today that He has given you everything you need to win the battle over temptation.
Ask Him that when you are tempted, to help you remember that you are in Christ, and you can defeat all temptation.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 33 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Understanding Temptation.
When it comes to temptation and sin, there’s important distinction to make.
Temptation is not sin.
When you are tempted, you are faced with a choice.
You still have the opportunity to resist and not fall into sin.
But when you succumb, then you have gone from temptation to sin.
So if you find yourself struggling with temptation, you haven’t done anything wrong yet.
Just make sure you look to God for help, He has promised in, 1 Corinthians 10:13 Amplified Bible (AMP)
13 No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance];
but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist],
but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy].
Thank God today for this promise that He will help you bear every temptation that comes your way today.
When you are tempted run to God.
Until tomorrow

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 32 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Little Choices, Big Decisions.
There has been so many thoughts written about the importance of choices.
You have probably heard this one.
Little choices determine habit,
Habit carves and moulds character,
Character makes the big decisions.
What does that tell you?
Even the little things count.
If you are tempted to cut corners and do things the easy way, or do your work halfheartedly because no one is watching, eventually your little choices are going to become habits.
These habits formed by taking the easy way out than become the habots that affect the bigger decisions you need to make in life.
This is especially true when it comes to sin.
Taking it lightly can lead to poor decision making down the road.
So consider every choice carefully, no matter how small, because it will affect the bigger decisions you have to make.
Ask God today to help you pay attention to your activities today, and consider the importance of the small choices you make.
Pray that each small choice be a reflection of your one bigger choice that is to flow Him.
Until tomorrow

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, A healthy perspective.
God cares about your body and health. Scripture says that;
Your body is a stewardship from God in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 3:16
Your body is meant to glorify God in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
So how are you doing? Many people these days could eat better and use more exercise, myself included.
Are you one of these people? Do you view your body as something that God has entrusted into your care?
Having that perspective may help you to be a little more diligent about your physical health. And that, in turn, will help you enjoy life and live longer.
Thank God today for showing you that there is a strong connection between your physical and spiritual health. And ask Him how you can be a good steward of your body and glorify Him with it.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Using time well.
The sooner we realise that life if but a vapour as it says in James 4:14, the more likely we are to make sure we are using our time well.
That doesn’t mean we can’t take time to have fun and relax. Rather, it means making sure you have you priorities in order.
At the top of the list is your spiritual health. Thats because it affects everything else you do.
When things are right between you and God and you’re spending time in His Word, that will help you align the rest of your priorities properly, which include caring for your family, managing your finances wisely, maintaining good physical health, giving your best at work, and serving others in church.
When you’ve taken care of these priorities, you can be confident you are using your time well.
Ask God, if your priorities bring glory to Him, do they help you make the most of your short time on earth? And if the answer is No, ask God to help re evaluate your priorities and make the necessary changes.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, The value of goals.
What are your goals in life? Have you identified them yet?
Goals can help you in many ways, For example, goals give definition, they take daydreams and make them concrete.
Goals give focus, they help you know how to spend your time, and set aside time wasters.
Goals give motivation, they give you something to aim for, they help prod you onward when the going gets rough.
Goals help you with decision making. They equip you to make the best decisions about how to spend your time, money, and energy.
And goals help you have an impact, when you achieve them, you”ll have grown as a person and hopefully others will benefit from your efforts.
So set some goals, and become the kind of person who makes a difference!
Ask God to guide you today as you assess your goals. Ask Him to help you set constructive goals, and prioritise them appropriately, and submit them to His leadership.
And pray that your goals lead to the highest goal of Knowing Him!

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Godly Ambition.
Ambition can be both positive and negative.
An example of the latter is people who have scratched their way to the top and, in the process, left their claw marks in the backs of you and others who they climbed over in order to reach their goal.
Thats not the kind of ambition that we as Christians men and women should have.
We are to have godly ambition, that is, a desire to serve the Lord and focus on the glory of God, and the good of others.
I believe this is part of what Paul had in mind when he said, “Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ” in 1 Corinthians 11:1.
Let's follow Pauls example by bringing our ambition in line with God’s will.
Tell God today that when you are consumed by selfish ambition, that you want Him to help you focus on glorifying Him and serving others.
And when you lack ambition, ask Him to remind you of the tremendous prize of knowing Him.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Mastering God’s word.
When I was new to the Whole Christian thing, I was amazed by some people and how well they knew their bible. I admired these people and their grasp of scripture, and wished I was like them.
One day I was courageous enough to ask one of these people how they knew their bible so well.
The answer I expected was some sort of theological training, some bible school, or that they just had a great ability to interpret scripture. But to my surprise, this person said it was a lifetime of just reading the bible regularly, day in and day out.
Thats pretty simple, isn’t it? What a joy it was to realise that every believer could have the same kind of knowledge.
All it takes is faithful and consistent reading.
Pray today that God would open your eyes as you read the Scriptures. And ask Him to make your heart good soil So the seed of His word will go deep and produce a good crop.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Imitating God.
Are you spiritually sensitive? By way of definition, this means walking through life with a God consciousness. It means knowing how God would act, talk, and respond to lifespan’s situations.
How can you develop this kind of sensitivity?
A key way id to observe God in action in the bible. For example, as you see how He responded graciously to His fallen creation and sacrificed His only Son for us, you begin to understand how you should be more loving, giving, and selfless.
As you see His other traits, His patience, His wisdom, His goodness, You will discover character qualities you’ll want to imitate in your own life.
So observe God carefully. Learn from His example. And you will grow in spiritual sensitivity.
Ask God today, how you can imitate Him at work? At Home? And out in the community? Ask Him to show you how your simple words and actions can reflect His saving work in the world.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, The rewards of discipline.
We have all heard the term “no pain, no gain”
Usually we see it on gym walls or shouted at us by personal trainers.
But those same four words are also a perfect paraphrase of the personal philosophy of the apostle Paul, who said in 1 Corinthians 9:27
“I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that , I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.”
This kind of discipline requires effort and sacrifice. But its well worthwhile, for you will receive a double prize, the eternal prize Paul is talking about, and the earthly prize of accomplishment and impact.
Personal discipline brings great rewards.
Talk to God today and ask Him to help you as you focus on the prize now, that the effort, sacrifice, and pain of discipline are more manageable. Ask Him to help you focus on the prize all through the day.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Profitable for all things.
We live in a health conscious society.
Diet plans and exercise programs are everywhere, here on the Gold Cost there seems to be a gym on every other corner. And we are constantly reminded again and again of the benefits of eating right and of physical activity.
Even the bible acknowledges this, saying in 1 Timothy 4:8 saying that bodily exercise “profits” us.
Yet notice what it says next, “but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come”
So while physical training has some value, spiritual training has a lot more.
In fact, its “profitable for all things”
That includes your marriage, your children, your job, your ministry, and even your life in eternity!
How are you doing in your growth toward godliness? That is becoming more like God as much as is humanly possible?
Ask God today to help you assess your spiritual training program and make adjustments where necessary. Thank Him for His promise that your growth in godliness is not only possible but also profitable!

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, The key to focus.
Have you ever felt like your life was scattered, as if you’re going in ten different directions?
Have you wished your life was more focussed?
If there’s one lesson we can learn from the apostle Paul, it's the value of discipline. All his energies were passionately channelled in one direction, toward winning a “crown that will last forever” (1 Corinthians 9:25)
Where many people chase after earthly prizes, or crowns that won’t last, Paul pursued an eternal prize. He wanted to know Christ, The power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings (Philippians 3:10)
And he counted everything else but loss.
What is motivating you?
Is Christ truly first in your life?
When He is, you’ll have a focus.
Let God know today that you want to be passionate, focussed, and directed. Ask Him to alert you if you start going in several directions at once. Ask Him to bring all your responsibilities together into a unified life of following Him.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 22 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Rejoicing in every victory.
Growing in obedience to God is a lifelong process.
It will never end. So you can expect to struggle against the desires of the flesh time and time again.
That’s why it’s so important to remember that spiritual growth happens one step at a time, one victory at a time.
It may not seem like it at the moment, but every one of your victories, even the really small ones, add up and have a cumulative effect, bringing you toward greater spiritual maturity.
So rejoice in even the smallest victories.
Thank God for every time He enables you to make a right choice. And you will find yourself inspired to persevere as new challenges come your way.
Ask God today to help you see the importance of every tiny step of obedience you take today. And thank Him for using those steps to make you stronger, and more mature, and more like Him.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 21 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Tapping into God’s strength.
The beauty of obedience is that what God expects you to do, He also enables you to do.
The strength comes from Him. You just need a willing heart.
The Apostle Paul wrote, “Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might” God made this strength available to you, and it's pretty remarkable.
Paul spoke of “exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power”
The power of God triumphs over al else. And you have access to it.
How?
Through full dependance upon Him, “praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit”
Acknowledge God today for who He is, let Him know how amazing it is when you say yes to Him and mean it, that He will give you the strength to follow through. Thank Him today for the “exceeding greatness” of His power in you.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Enduring opposition.
Any time you stand up for what you believe, you will experience opposition. You can count on it!
As Paul told his young disciple, Timothy, “All who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution”
Earlier in 2 Timothy, Paul wrote, “ You… must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of his social life”
We are called to live boldly by different standards, God’s standards.
Yes it will be difficult. But such hardship is nothing compared to what you will gain, God’s blessing for your obedience and a clear conscience for doing what is right.
Ask God today to let you know how He is asking you to stand up for what you believe in. Ask for strength when opposition comes your way, and bear that opposition with grace and maintain a clear conscience.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Victory over the flesh.
Every Christian battles with the flesh, especially men. Even the great Apostle Paul struggled, you can read it in Romans 7:21-24.
21 So I find it to be the law [of my inner self], that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. 22 For I joyfully delight in the law of God in my inner self [with my new nature], 23 but I see a different law and rule of action in the members of my body [in its appetites and desires], waging war against the law of my mind and subduing me and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is within my members. 24 Wretched and miserable man that I am! Who will [rescue me and] set me free from this body of death [this corrupt, mortal existence]? 25 Thanks be to God [for my deliverance] through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind serve the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh [my human nature, my worldliness, my sinful capacity—I serve] the law of sin.
How can you MASTER this challenge?
Monitor your time with those who drag you down.
Account for your struggles to a more mature believer
Strengthen your inner man through the Bible and prayer
Train your eyes to avoid things that stir fleshly desires
Exercise purity in relationships with the opposite sex
Run from the lusts of the flesh
Victory is possible. Make these steps a regular part of your life!
Thank God today for reminding you that you are not a helpless victim. Ask Him to empower you to master your fleshly desires, and pray as you put these tools into action that He guides you

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 18 of Refinery Life radio.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Keeping your eye on the prize.
Because obedience has its challenges, its the less travelled path. Disobedience, on the other hand, is the more well worn way.
In fact, it is characterised by gridlock! Why?
Because its the easy way out. Its the road we ware tempted to take when things get a bit sticky or uncomfortable.
Its the path of least resistance, and sadly, its the path that make us men and women of little or no positive impact.
As you run the race for Christ, you will face hurdles that trip you up, knock you down, or pressure you to compromise God’s standards.
Thats why Paul urges you to “press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Jesus Christ”
If you keep your eye on the prize at the finish line, you’ll have what it takes to overcome life challenges.
Ask God today that instead of sneaking around the hurdles life on the path of least resistance, that He help you sail over the challenges on the high road of obedience.

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 17 of Refinery Life radio.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Rising to the occasion.
The path of obedience is rarely easy. It certainly wasn’t for the Christians in the New Testament era.
When they preached that gospel in Jerusalem, the Jewish religious leaders told them to stop.
How did they respond?
The courageously declared, “Wether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard”
And what was the effect of their obedience?
"They were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness”
As a result, people came to Christ, and the church grew, all because they were willing to overcome challenges in their pursuit of obeying God.
Are you ready to rise to the occasion?
Seek God and ask Him to help you recognise the steps of obedience that He asked you to make. And ask Him that when your obedience and commitment is challenged that He helps you rise to the occasion so you can glorify Him in all you do.

And that strength will come to you, * Faithfully read His word * Faithfully hear the preaching of His word, * Faithfully listen to wise counsel from His word, and * Faithfully deal with sin in your life as revealed by the piercing light of His word.

Your willingness to obey the Lord is a key step toward experiencing God’s blessings, and it will enable you to become a man or woman God can use to make a difference.
Ask God today to pour His strength into you as you attend to His word, thank Him that every blessing and every trial in your life will turn your obedience to Him and His word.

Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Letting God lead.
When you submit yourself to God and obey Him, you allow Him to do what He desires in your life.
You make it possible for Him to lead you wherever He wants to use you.
At the same time, you’ll experience the confidence that comes from knowing you are exactly where God wants you to be.
You’ll experience the joy of knowing you are at the centre of God’s will.
Then you, along with Paul, can confidently lead and boldly influence others as you declare, “Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ”
That’s why obeying God is so important, it allows Him to work through you, and gives you a secure confidence for everyday living.
Isn’t that what you long for?
Ask God to help you focus when you are intimidated by a task, ask Him to hep you focus on simply obeying Him one step at a time. Ask Him to help you have a life that encourages others to do the same as you.
Until tomorrow

Today we are going to talk about, One decision at a time.
How did men like Abraham, Daniel, and Paul become men who accomplished great things for God?
There wasn’t any secret formula to success for them. In Fact, they were ordinary people like you and me.
What made them effective leaders was their willingness to obey God, one decision at a time.
Your impact on the lives of others. Your family, your workmates, the people at your church, is cultivated with each decision you make, no matter how small.
Its the little things, like reading your bible, praying, going to church, and standing up for your faith that add influence to your life.
The key to a powerful Christian life is to obey God one decision at a time. Then He will trust you with more.
Ask God today to fill your day with small steps of obedience. Pray that each choice you make today large or small will help you to influence others for good.
Until tomorrow

Today we are going to talk about, Restoring Hope.
When we worry, we usually get discouraged and even depressed.
We respond to life negatively and take our eyes off God and His promises to take care of us.
The next time you start to worry about something, here’s how you can restore your hope.
Pray.
Philippians 3:6 says “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything in prayer and supplication…let your requests be known to God”
The next time you start to worry about something.
Trust.
Refuse to worry about circumstances beyond your control.
Remember Psalm 135:6 says they are still in God’s control.
The next time you start to worry about something.
Give Thanks.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 says “ In everything, give thanks”
When you thank God even for the hard things in life, you are saying, “Lord, I am confident You will use this for my good.”
Ask God today to help you focus on Him instead of the negative things in your life.
Ask him to help you redeem your worrying thoughts and use them as reminders to pray, to express your trust in Him, and remember to give Him thanks.
Until tomorrow

Today we are going to talk about, God is always there with you.
Do you ever think about the fact that god knows, in advance, everything that will happen?
That means that there is nothing that takes God by surprise, even al the difficult crises in your life.
So when you find yourself worried about tomorrow, lift your cares up to the Lord.
He has already seen the future, and because He is faithful, He will give you whatever you need to persevere through your problems. In the same way that He sustained the Psalmist in Psalm 23:4 “ though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death” He will preserve and comfort you in every trial you face.
Thats why you can rejoice with David and say “ Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me in all the days of my life”
Talk to God today and tell Him that even though you don’t know what might happen tomorrow, He does. Acknowledge that you can’t cause good to come from a crisis, but He can.

Today we are going to talk about, When it’s hard to have hope.
When something terrible happens in your life, are you tempted to ask, “what good could come out of this?”
Sometimes things look like a disaster, and feel like a disaster, therefore you conclude, “It’s a disaster!”
This is when you need to remember God’s promise in Jeremiah 29:11, “ I know the thoughts that I think towards you, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
And the there’s Romans 8:28, which says, “All things work together for good to those who love God”
God doesn’t tell you that you will escape suffering and pain.
What He does do is promise to miraculously use even bad situations for your ultimate good, and He assures you that you have a great future ahead of you, when you rely in Him.
Let these promises sustain you when you find it hard to have hope.
Talk to God today and ask Him to strengthen you with His Word and Spirit when you suffer, so you can endure with joy, knowing that God ultimately has great things in store for you.

Today we are going to talk about, Great is His faithfulness.
How often do you take time out to pause and notice how faithful God has been to you?
Recognising God’s goodness towards you is important.
It’s when you remember His unceasing care that you are reminded that He will carry you through every situation life, no matter how bad.
It was God’s faithfulness in adversity that led King David to write in Psalm 40:1-3, “ I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry.
He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay; and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps.
He has put a new song in my mouth, praise to our God; many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord.
Thank God today that he has pulled you out of some horrible pits and established your steps.
Never forget what He has done for you.
And praise Him always and don’t forget to share your faithfulness with others.

Here are four things you can do that are helpful for those times that you need guidance and wisdom.
What does the inspired word of God command?
Seek competent and wise councillors
What are the circumstances of the decision to be made and what are the changing conditions?
And finally use your conscience aided by the Holy Spirit.
God can use any or all of these things to give you direction, if you are ready to listen.
It may take time, but that’s OK.
Make use of the resources God provides for you to make informed choices that honour and glorify Him.
Ask God today to help you make wise decisions that glorify Him.
Ask God to help you keep your eyes and ears open so you can learn from Him and honour Him in all that you say and do.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 8 of Refinery Life radio /TV.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute video / Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, Confidence in God.
Are you fearful because you feel God is moving you in an unexpected direction?
Is the unknown causing you to waver on the path of obedience?
Take heart, and trust God. Walk in confidence with God.
Walk as King David did in Psalm 23:4, declaring “though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me.
Though you might not know where God’s will is taking you, you can trust God to watch over and stay with you.
Though life might take surprising turns, they are not unexpected to God.
He know what is happening and why, and all He calls you to do is Trust Him.
Affirm to God today that as long as He leads you and you are walking with Him, that you have nothing to fear.
Resolve to follow Him today knowing that you will never be safer than when you are with Him.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings

Today we are going to talk about, Being at the centre of God's will.
Do you know what I believe is the icing on the cake of obedience, what I believe to be one of the most compelling reasons for choosing to obey God?
It is this, Obedience leads to a powerful, confident life.
When you are obedient, and when you allow yourself to be led by God through the unexpected, you then have a confidence based on the fact that you know you are exactly where God wants you to be.
You won’t find yourself doubting circumstances in your life, or the direction things are going.
You will have the inner peace and joy that comes from knowing that you are at the centre of God’s will!
Thank God today for leading you to the centre of His will. Ask God to show His hand in everything that comes your way as you follow Him today.
Until tomorrow Stay in the blessings

Today we are going to talk about, The power of obedience.
When we think about the extraordinary ways God worked through men like Moses and Paul, we may think, I can’t measure up to people like them. I don’t have what they had.
But we have to realise that these”heroes” of the faith were just common, ordinary people.
It was their obedience, they had completely yielded to God, that gave them uncommon strength and faith.
They submitted their lives to God, which in turn freed God to work through them.
I don’t know about you, but their examples inspire me to re-evaluate my own obedience.
Am I reluctant to listen to God because I think He is asking the impossible?
Am I failing to make myself available to Him because Im doubtful or afraid?
Our part is to simply obey, and God will do His part.
When you pray today acknowledge God for who He is and yield fully to Him, ask Him to help you make yourself more available to Him today.

Today we are going to talk about, Saying yes to God.
God is able to use a man or woman with ho is willing to do whatever He says.
By this I mean a person who listens and obeys Him.
We see confirmation of this in the Bible. For example, The apostle Paul was asked to “get up, and spread the gospel.”
Abraham was asked to give up, to sacrifice his son Isaac.
Moses was asked tospeak up, to confront pharaoh about letting the people of Israel go.
And Daniel was asked to Stand up, to not yield to demands to compromise his faith.
In every case, God rewarded the obedience these men showed.
When you yield yourself in complete and whole hearted obedience to God, He can do great things through you.
Pray today that God shows you how to honour Him in everything you do, at home, at work, and even when you’re out having fun.
Choose in advance to say yes to God in everything you do.
Until tomorrow

What does God want?
We struggle over knowing what God wants. We ask for signs. Some people in scripture had an advantage, sort of, they get to speak to God or at least hear God’s voice. What about us today?
Today we are going to be focusing on Hebrews 11:8-19

Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to episode 3 of Refinery Life radio.
Our goal here is to release a 2-3 minute Podcast each day, designed to challenge you and get you to spend more time with God.
Today we are going to talk about, being too busy to pray.
Are you too busy to pray?
All too often when we fail to pray, we say its because we’re too busy. Is that you?
In reality, its not your schedule that keeps you from praying.
Its your failure to realise the importance of prayer and make time to pray.
And instead of relying on the power of prayer in all that you do, you turn to your feeble wisdom and energy.
You roll up your sleeves and get busy, turning to your own power instead of God’s.
If your life is so busy you can’t pray, have you ever considered its because you haven’t taken the time to ask God for help with your priorities?
Turn to Him, and He will give you the discernment that enables you to use your time well so that you are able to pray.
Ask God today to show you what you need to prioritise and what you have been prioritising above God.
Ask God to show you what you have been depending on instead of Him.
Assess your priorities today and keep prayer at the top of the list.
Until tomorrow

Today we are going to talk about, God is always ready to listen.
When you fail to pray, you end up feeling distant from God.
And that in turn, makes us even more reluctant to pray.
No matter how distant you may feel from the Lord, God is always close by.
He hasn’t changed, moved, disappeared, or lost interest in you.
So close the gap. Take a simple step toward God and talk to Him.
The more you do this, the more comfortable you will become communicating with Him.
And the more you pray, the more opportunity you’ll have to ask for His help for yourself and on behalf of others.
And the more you ask, the more answers and guidance you will receive .
No matter what your situation, God is always ready to listen!
When you pray today , thank God for always being nearby, and always listening, and always caring.
Ask Him to help you to look to Him in every situation and to never allow a gap to develop between you and Him.
Until tomorrow.

While I was praying this morning I said to God, why is it so hard for some people to commit and follow through on what they have said they would do? God’s answer came back quickly. He said son, if they aren’t willing to commit to Me as they promised, what makes you think they will do what they said for you? This rocked me, but at the same time made perfect sense. So the question is, can you even spare two minutes a day for God? Over the coming weeks i am going to post daily thoughts that shouldn’t take more than two minutes of your time. I encourage you to seek God and commit to Him. Are you waiting for answers from God? When you think your prayers aren’t being answered, do you get discouraged and cry out, “God, why aren’t you helping me?” Yet God has promised to answer your prayers. “Ask, and it will be given to you, seek, and you will find, knock, and it will be opened for you” this is what the bible tells us in Matthew 7:7 However, sometimes you don’t see the answer for a while, or God may say no because He has a different, and better plan. So you are exhorted to ask, but your request must be. First, in faith (Matthew 21:22) Second, without selfish motives (James 4:3) And thirdly you must ask, according to the will of God(1 John 5:14-15) Let’s all pray today, Lord I confess that I am not good at waiting for Your answers to my prayers. But as I wait, I believe You will build my faith, purify my heart, and show me your will. Amen Thank you Lord
