Description

Pray Without Ceasing Bible Readings: 1 Thessalonians 5:12-28 Summary: 1 Thessalonians 5:12-28 compares prayer to breathing, calling it the soul’s spiritual breath, made possible by the Holy Spirit. The sermon points to Pentecost as the time when the Spirit turned the early church into a community of prayer. Prayer is described as essential to Christian life, not just an extra activity. Paul’s words to “pray without ceasing” mean living in constant dependence on God, showing gratitude, and staying connected with Him, rather than praying nonstop. Even though the young church in Thessalonica faced hardship and persecution, Paul encourages them to stay faithful, love one another, and keep praying as people who live in God’s light.

"To Live Is Christ, To Die Is Gain" - Bible Reading: Philippians 1:19-30 (21/6/26PM)

To Live Is Christ, To Die Is Gain Bible Reading: Philippians 1:19-30 Summary: This sermon, based on Philippians 1:19–30, centres on Paul’s confession: “To live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Written from prison, Paul’s words show that Christ gives meaning to life, courage in suffering, and victory over death. The sermon encourages believers to trust God even in hardship, knowing that the Spirit strengthens them and that their lives can still honour Christ. It explains that salvation comes through Christ’s death and resurrection, not human strength. Because Jesus conquered sin and death, Christians can live faithfully, face death without fear, and hope confidently in eternal life with Him. Preached By Rev Lourens Nel on 21/6/26 PM Service
