John Calvin, in his famous Christmas day sermon in 1551 said, “When you elevate one day alone for the purpose of worshiping God, you have just turned it into an idol. True, you insist that you have done so for the honor of God, but it is more for the honor of the devil” (Roach, Dec 13, 2016). Harsh words indeed, but Calvin’s message was a caution, first, to believers that the church ought to celebrate and honour Christ’s birth, but that it should be a day of worship that is restrained by moderation. Secondly, Calvin brings a message of caution to non-believers that if this is not a day of worship of Christ, you are essentially committing idolatry. Shall we dare to lift the veil of ignorance. | In this podcast, Dr Rod Eadie, from Philosophy and Faith, interviews Jesse Baker about the message, origin, and idolatry of Christmas.

Today we started a new teaching series on Leviticus. In our first teaching, Pastor Jesse taught that the burnt offering was a costly and daily sacrifice that drew remorseful sinners into the holy presence of God. The pure blood of the sacrificial victim was shed for the tainted life of the repentant sinner.

Likewise, Jesus is our perfect burnt offering. On the altar of the cross, he restores the broken relationship of repentant sinners with God and enables them to now dwell in his holy presence forever.

One of the Founding Fathers of America, Jefferson, therefore, said, “Eternal vigilance is the price we pay for liberty.” If we are to maintain our freedom in the West, it is our duty to keep an eye on where that freedom is disappearing and devise a biblical strategy. The strategy of the early church was to proclaim Christ is Lord in a culture where people professed Caesar is Lord. This was a “subversive project to create a society within society, resisting secular crusades against people of faith, and establishing a cathedral of civilisation within the existing [networks] of public life” (Michael F. Bird). This teaching from our Truth Over Trend series seeks to explore this first-century practice of peaceful resistance.

Hermann Hesse, the German-Swiss novelist, strikes a chord that many of us today. He writes:"Human life becomes a real hell of suffering when two ages, two cultures and [two] religions overlap. There are times when a whole generation gets caught to such an extent between two eras, two styles of life, that nothing comes naturally to it since it has lost all sense of morality, security, and innocence."On Sunday, the 20th of August, Pastor Jesse taught a lecture-style message on the "Culture Wars" and how the Church of Jesus Christ is called to seeds of gospel renewal in this season of civil unrest.

SUNDAY SERMON

What do your words say about you?

In our passage for today, Malachi reveals a great ‘distinction between the wicked and the righteous’ (3:18), a distinction that is brought to light by our words.

Before the God who listens, our words, however small they are, have the power to airdrop us either into the kingdom of darkness or the kingdom of light.

The words we speak determine the future we reap.

I wonder if this is your Creed?

• “I believe in Gold, Treasure Almighty, basis of fortune on earth: And in Greedy Might, the only force that works.”

• “I believe in owning shares; the extension of credit; the retention of gain; the reclamation of debt; and in life without fasting.”

• “I believe in money.”

The truth is that greed is a religion with millions of devoted adherents, including the people of Israel in the day of Malachi.

To find our more about how to confront the problem of greed, consider listening to our latest teaching ⤵️

The spiritual complacency of the people of Israel is dire. Before a God of goodness and love, the people have wearied him with their words of hypocrisy and blasphemy (Mal. 2:17).

In their rebellion, they daringly say, ‘God favours evildoers’ and critically ask, ‘Where is the God of justice?’ The Israelites have gone woke, but their wokeness has gone toxic, for it has lost sight of the truth of who God is.

Even though their complaint is faulty, God, however, responds to their complaint. God promises to send two messengers to Israel to awaken Israel to true justice (Mal. 3:1).

Who are these two messengers? Find out in our latest teaching on Malachi.

For this reason, the covenant of marriage cannot work apart from both FAITH and FAITHFULNESS.

If you need to constantly scan through your wife’s messages to see if she is cheating on you, there is no faith in your covenant to her.

If you have created a secret Tinder account on your private second phone, then you are not showing faithfulness to her in your covenant.

The covenant of marriage cannot work without covenant faith and faithfulness, and this is the issue at hand in Malachi 2:10-16.

God established a “covenant with Levi” (Malachi 2:4). There were twelve tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Levi had a special agreement with God. The tribe of Levi pledged themselves to be the loyal priests of God over the nation of Israel.

One thousand years later, the situation is now dire. The Levitical priests in the day of Malachi were to be a reservoir of truth. But they had refashioned the message of God to suit their own whims and to fit in with the times.

By modifying and misinterpreting the Law, the priests caused many to fall into sin. The priests had become “broken cisterns” who could not retain the living water of truth (Jeremiah 2:13). The Word of God was being lost.

Passage: Malachi 2:1-4

Preacher: Pastor Jesse

View Details

The priests of Israel became spiritual frauds, pietistic phonies, and robed pretenders who orchestrated scandalous religious ceremonies for their own gain.

The priests were trying to keep the temple doors open by whatever means possible, even if that meant committing serious crimes against those whom they served.

Henry Nouwen, a popular spiritual writer, said, “There is the power that oppresses and destroys… [but there is also a] true power that liberates, reconciles and heals.”

That is to say, there are those, like Jesus, who wield power through the ministry of the towel, serving others (John 13:14). But there are others who do not lead and serve out of love but use their role and status to ‘rob’, ‘cheat’ and ‘abuse’ (Malachi 1:13-14).

What, then, does God say to the wicked?

What is God absolutely committed to? Malachi 1:11 says, 'My name will be great among the nations, from where the sun rises to where it sets. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations,” says the Lord Almighty.' In other words, God is absolutely committed to the universal fame of his name.

Preacher: Pastor Jesse Baker

View Details

Malachi is a prophetic attack against spiritual apathy. ‘In a time of spiritual disillusionment, Israel grew weary of God and of keeping his covenant’ (Gordon D. Fee). After many years of zeal and fervency for God, ‘there has been a steady erosion of living faith and spiritual urgency’ (John Benton). Their faith has lost its edge, and worship has become dead formal. How will God save his people from spiritual apathy, a faith on the brink of being fossilised?

What is the evidence that saving grace is at work in your life? The answer is plain: it will be our chief desire to please God by living a profitable life and to avoid what is unprofitable. Text: Titus 3:8-15.

To win the culture to Christ, people need to encounter Christ in culture. The Bible says, “Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God” (1 Pe 2:12). Our fearless lives of holiness are the arms we take up for cultural revolution. We remake culture by building a brand-new culture shaped by good works. In this sermon, Pastor Jesus urges us to be who we are in Christ, no longer fools but royals under God. Text: Titus 3:1-8.

View Details

We live in-between two appearings of Jesus—and these two appearings of “grace” and “glory” are the fuel that drive the engine of the good life. Tim Chester puts it this way: “We are pushed from behind by the wonder of grace and are pulled forward by the hope of glory.” The knowledge of grace and glory fuels godliness. I pray that this teaching will be a blessing for your own discipleship to Jesus. Text: Titus 2v11-15

View Details

Before we knew Jesus, we were barren trees in the desert, “unfit for doing anything good” (Titus 1v16). But through our newfound “faith” in Jesus, our identity was transformed. In love for him and his gospel, his life nourishes our whole being. We then emerge as new people who now produce the fruit of “godliness” (1v1). In Titus 2v1-10, Paul seeks to drive home this point. He illustrates what this godliness looks like for men, women, and bondservants.

View Details

Through the gospel, even the wild dogs can become tender lambs, “sound in the faith” (1v13). Even the most broken, unfaithful leader can “flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart” (2 Tim 2v22). Even the rebels can be forgiven by the amazing grace of God. Text: Titus 1v10-16.

View Details

Paul left Titus on Crete to “straighten out what was left unfinished” by ‘appointing elders in every town’ (1v5). Paul did not leave Titus in Crete to seek out people with next-level administration skills, slick church promotion ideas, or an attractive, vibrant personality. Paul left him there to appoint elders who were “blameless” (1v6). Text: Titus 1v5-9.

View Details

Like his mentor Paul, Titus is to preach the message about faith, knowledge, and hope. But this is no ordinary preaching. Paul makes the point that ‘eternal life is “manifested” (brought to light) through the preaching of the word’ (Titus 1v3). Eternal fates are sealed by the words of our mouths. The model for Titus is thus also a model for us. Eternal life breaks into human history as we preach the gospel. Scripture: Titus 1v1-4.

We should no longer observe the “old” ceremonial Sabbath of animal sacrifices, for the old shabbat has finished in Jesus. The temple curtain has been torn from top to bottom. The “old” system has gone.

View Details

Timothy Keller has said, “Because the world is full of ugly things, we need the Sabbath to feed our soul with beauty.” Jesus himself said plainly, “In this world, you will have trouble,” but he also said his desire for his disciples was “that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be full.” Sorrow is inevitable in this life, but joy is not. In the Way of Jesus, joy is a gift, but it’s one that must be chosen and cultivated, day after day, as an act of apprenticeship to our God of delight.

View Details

The gift of rest is a gift to become like Jesus, the perfect model of Sabbath-keeping, who often let people down at a rate they could handle. Jesus, the wisest and perfect human, valued holy rest with God so much that he was well-attuned with the word no. Jesus said no, and if Jesus can say no, so can we.

View Details

We were not created to be machines; we are designed to be like God. Humans are not automatons but divine reflections. Every cell in our body beats to the same drumbeat—a rhythm that was first strummed by God over the waters of creation. In this teaching, we are invited to labour hard and rest easy, just like God does.

View Details

God cares for both your body and your soul. He does not only desire to redeem our bodies, but he also desires to liberate us from our fears, doubts, and anxieties. But this gift of emotional freedom does not come without pain. Charles Spurgeon once said, “Every great favour of God brings a great trial with it as its shadow, and thus becomes a new test of faith.” That is to say, when God gives us a big gift, he often puts us through a big test. And this is at the heart of the gospel message today.

View Details

John ordered a flaming hot, well-done Messiah who would set the first century ablaze with God’s wrath, but instead, Jesus came as a medium-rare steak and drank God’s wrath upon himself. That is to say, the message of Jesus the Messiah was not primarily about judgement but radical mercy. We hope you enjoy this teaching by Pastor Jesse.

The darkness does not need to be our story. The good news is that there is a precious light that promises to come to us when things are at their darkest. He has come, and he will return. He is Jesus, the “great light” of advent (Isaiah 9v2), and in Matthew 3v1-10, John urged the people of Israel to get ready for the arrival of this king who would shine his light into their darkness.

Beyond the tinsel and glitter, Christmas may contain a black cloud of misery. It could be a pain that never appears to go away but only grows more potent because of all the plastic, bubble-wrapped happiness surrounding you. For some, Christmas exposes the gloom of difficult situations and often brings us no comfort or joy. Thank God that advent begins with a liturgical call to confront the darkness with the light spoken of in Isaiah 9v1-7.
