The coronation service of King Charles III in London's Westminster Abbey today was an impressive display of royal ceremony and pageantry, but better still was the clear assertion before a global audience of Christ's Lordship and His unique role as Saviour.

Matthew 24v24
A Canadian friend asked me how Matthew 24:4 applies in our day. "For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and they shall give great signs and miracles, and in this manner to deceive if it was possible even the elect." Jesus Christ: Matthew 24:24 This follows Jesus' command: "Jesus answered and said to …
Searching for Jesus Christ
Some people find Jesus Christ easily and others have a more circuitous route involving a lot of difficulty. Professor Jordan Peterson seems to fall into the latter category. In truth, Jesus Christ finds us, as the Good Shepherd looking for His lost sheep, but our experience is that we find Christ. We do so because …

Asking for God’s gift
Multitudes who know about Jesus Christ do not know the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus tells us that if they did know the Gospel, then they would have eternal life. He says so in His conversation with the woman of Samaria. Jesus told the woman of Samaria that if she knew the gift of God …
Christian scribes
I am a scribe but not a Pharisee – that is, I am a Christian scribe. In Jesus' day, the scribes and Pharisees were opposed to His teaching. Jesus accused them of hypocrisy: 'Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you close the kingdom of heaven against mankind: for you neither go in yourselves, …
Your Christian identity
Are you a Jewish Christian or a Christian Jew or both? Are you a Friend of Israel, a Conservative Friend of Israel, a Christian Friend of Israel or whatever? Are you a Messianic Jew, a Hebrew Christian or Jewish Christian? What is your primary identity? The International Development Secretary Priti Patel was formally reprimanded by …
Do you honour Jesus Christ as Lord?
What sort of honour do you give to Jesus Christ, and to what extent? Many people know that He claims to be the Son of God, but this washes over many of them as if it is just another item of news. Rather, it is so significant that it cannot be ignored and deserves to …
