ABC's of Faith (3) - What faith is (2)
It is vital to have a correct understanding of FAITH to avoid serious error. (1) Faith is more than mere Intellectual assent (believing certain facts). (2) FAITH is NOT a WORK, but an attitude of the HEART, TRUSTING in CHRIST alone and HIS WORK for us. (3) WORKS are the PRODUCT of FAITH.

ABC's of FAITH (5) - How Faith Comes (2)
Faith is a GIFT from God, given through His WORD: "Faith comes by hearing the Word of God” (Rom 10:17). "The ENTRANCE of Your WORDS (into our heart) brings LIGHT (FAITH)" (Ps 119:130). God works by giving His Word that imparts to us the faith to receive. We give many illustrations of this truth.

ABC's of Faith (6) - The Faithfulness of God
FAITH is TRUST in a PERSON and His PROMISES. So our faith is not just based on knowing what He said, but also on knowing the CHARACTER of the One Who said it. Our CONFIDENCE in God’s FAITHFULNESS to do what He promised helps us to cross the threshold into possessing the promise.

Removing Blockages to your Healing - Hilary Walker
God wants to HEAL us, but often BLOCKAGES must be removed before His Glory (Healing) can be revealed (Isaiah 40:3-5). The major blockage is UNFORGIVENESS (Mark 11:25-26). Pastor Hilary explains how to recognise and uproot any root of bitterness in your heart, and to freely forgive (Hebr 12:15).

The Great Commission (2)
The Great Commission is in all 4 Gospels. We are all commanded to be a witness to Christ, with both our LIPS and LIFE, letting the light of the Gospel shine as well as doing good works (Matt 5:14-16), for men are only saved through the Gospel (Romans 1:16). As we share it, the Spirit will work through us.

Get your Heart into Shape (1) - Removing Unbelief
The HEART is the deepest part of the soul, at the junction of soul and spirit (Hebr 4:12). It RECEIVES the life of the spirit and RELEASES it into our soul and body (Prov 4:23). So we must keep our heart free from things that block this flow of life. (1) We explain how to remove the blockage of UNBELIEF.
