Real Resurrection?
Jesus
made some astonishing claims during His short ministry. He claimed He
was equal with God, that through Him was the only way anyone could
ever approach God, that He could forgive sins, and give to us eternal
life; just to mention a few! One claim He repeatedly made was that
after His death He would be raised back to life. This then would be
the ultimate test to see if He was a charlatan, or all His claims were
true.
Faith and Reason

Can we know God?
Most people believe there is a God. A “something” bigger than ourselves, outside of time and very powerful. Most of us find it impossible to believe that this beautiful intricate universe simply developed without any direction. We all know deep down there must be a power behind the universe - A God. It is not idle curiosity then that begins to ask, “What is God like?” Click here
Fearing God
Imagine a chat show on T.V. with guests discussing the root causes of what may be going wrong with our society? After a few points of view have been expressed, one guest states “the main problem we have is that so few people have any fear of God!” Click here
Grateful Opposition?
There has always been a price to pay for following Jesus Christ. But in the last few years, where once it was only the brave evangelist who would meet spiteful opposition, now anyone who seeks to speak out and live out the teaching of Jesus can find themselves facing serious opposition. Yet it is almost with a sense of relief that we find ourselves back to what the Bible considers normal! Click here
