The definition of a Christian-one who is born again and filled with the Spirit. We don't have peace because we aren't right with God. Our heart condemns us.

Justification is the objective fact of what God has done and is not based on feelings.

The basis of our salvation.

Does your life shine forth the life of Jesus or do you live for yourself?

We can begin real life again when we allow Jesus to have His way in our lives.

Review; The Carnal Christian.

We try and get security, signifigance and happiness from the world and not from God. We manipulate circumstances and people to achieve this. God in Jesus destroyed this evil propensity of our natures.

An explanation of how Jesus death has delivered us from our sinful nature.

Jesus death was meant to deliver us from our own selfish desires and interests and to live wholly for Him in joy!

Perverted self-love is what God wants to deliver us from.

Traits of sin and the self-life examined. Anger, frustration, irratibility are symptoms of self and we can be delivered from them by faith in Jesus' work on the Cross.

To be crucified with Christ means dying to our own rights and giving ourselves fully to God. Forsaking sin is essential to knowing God personally.

Are we ready to die to our own self interests and allow God to fill us with His love and power? Walls of Jericho illustration of how we are to walk by faith rather than feeling.

Talks on how God is able to completely deliver us from sin.

Are we slaves to anything in this life?

What are we slaves to? We all desire to have security, significance and happiness. The reason we lack these things is because we've been living independent of God. We try and get from things which we should get from God.

The law is God's way to check us and keep us on the right track, revealing sin and selfishness.

The essence of sin is independence of God and our claim to our right to ourselves.

Discussion on how God's law operates in our lives. The law is God's way to check us and keep us on the right track, revealing sin and selfishness.

We're trying to be something we are not-this brings stress and unrest. Jesus' death destroyed this power and desire to rule over us if we trust in Him and submit to His will.

God's order and design of the universe used to illustrate God's love, care and concern for us. We only trust God for the things we cannot control?

One of the purposes of God's law is to restrain sin. Illustrations from Watergate. The law exposes sin and points us to a higher way beyond ourselves so that we have to trust God.

God's law exposes self-will. The reveals sinfulness in our lives to such an extent that we give up our self-will. Only we can give that up, God respects our free will.

I can't! It's not that we can't stop sinning but rather we won't-we don't see the dire consequences of doing wrong.

We are unable to do the things we know are right.

The way to deliverance from our Jekyll/Hyde personalities outlined by our identification with Jesus' death and walking in the light of obedience.

Why can't we be real with each other?

We look to things and people for happiness and approval instead of looking to God. Our old self with these tendencies was destroyed in Jesus' death on the cross.

The Holy Spirit witnesses to our conscience what truth is.

What causes suffering and pain in our lives? Strain! Living above all circumstances in Jesus!

What is real love in everyday life situations? Do we love when it hurts? Love is putting yourself in the others' shoes.

Talks on being reborn and the marks of the new birth. Practical imp- lications in every day life.

Is our basis for salvation derived from our belonging to the right group or church or does it come from a personal relationship to God?

The sign of being a child of God is not belonging to a church or living a good life but entering into the reality of Jesus' death and it's consequences.

Our new covenant with Jesus means He has given us a new heart and Spirit that enables us to fulfill the requirements of God's laws- practical illustrations given.

Further talks on what it truly means to be a Christian. What causes us to do wrong and why do we feel that it's wrong to do those things?

The law was given to show our powerless in trying to obey it-only by living in Christ are we able to fulfil its requirements.

Worship is something more than what we do on Sundays-it should be part of our lives through the week.

God's promises are only actualized if we are His children i.e. have received the New Birth.

We are not born again-our religion is mental beliefism and opinions. Head belief rather than life in the Spirit.

When we realize from God that we are no good, we can then enter into New Birth. Ask the Holy Spirit to make real Jesus' death in you.

Death of sin through Jesus' death is the only way to victory. Our self-goodness needs to be destroyed.

A Christian is one who has given up his rights on how to live his own life but rather lives by faith in the promises of God.

Find out what God wants for your life and occupation, not what's convenient-don't conform to what the world would want you to do.

Find out what God wants for you by doing what you enjoy e.g. Ecclesiastes 'do it with all your might'.

God has put you here for a special purpose and will lead you into it if you do what's at hand with all your heart.

Why are you here? Your job is a gift from God to make you into Jesus. You're not here just for work but to fulfill God's to show Jesus in you to the world.l

God cannot overrule our decisions as to whether we obey Him or not. He has mercy on us if we give up ourselves to Him.

Does God rule over all including the senseless evil that often affects our lives? The problem of predestination.

The problem of free will and evil.

The problem of suffering:If God is responsible, then we are not responsible for our own evil actions.

The importance of listening to our conscience and obeying God. If we don't we will miss God's plan and vocation for our lives.

What are we living for? What is the dearest thing in our life? God wants us to accept His plan for us. He is molding us to be like Himself.

God is in control of our circumstances and we should give Him thanks in all things as he uses these things to mold us for His purposes.

We need to see that God is in the midst of all of our trials and difficulties. When they are beyond us, it forces us to trust and abide in God.

Evil circumstances drive us beyond ourselves to grab on to God. God has borne all our weaknesses and trials out of love.

Traits of those who are not born of God. How does our live show us that we are Christians and not just mental believers? Obedience is the key.

What is true revival? God is choosing people who really love Him rather than being religious.

Definfition of a Christian-many live by laws-only in Jesus'death can we be real Christians-by faith it is made real in our life

We need to die to the world and people in order to experience the freedom that Jesus'death brings through faith or else we become legalistic and works oriented

We try to make Jesus' death real by our own power i.e practicing the right attitude,reading the right books etc.

Argument for the reliability and truthfulness of the historicity of the New Testament documents. Comparison of ancient writings.

Argument for Jesus' divinity and proofs for the resurrection.

A call to give your life to God as concluded from the previous talks.

What do we want most for the person we know or live with? Do we love them and want to see them saved or are we more concerned with our ownneeds?

Intro into Jonestown massacre with lesson-John Newton "America" Sermon starts at 23 mins.

We have been re-created in Christ and are able to obey and depend on Him rather than people

Don't introspect when failing-believe you are new in Christ-don't look at your feelings but believe God's word

We can only be free to be ourselves if we've been remade by Jesus notby trying to be right in our own power.

The need to choose Jesus in order to keep us from going to hell-our good deeds are not enough-we need to have him living in us

Every person has been placed in Christ and has been set free from prison-it is only actualized if we accept Christ into our lives

The call to go abroad and spread the truth of the life Jesus. Content is quite dated! Iranian revolution etc.

Illustration of life in London and India to encourage people to go abroad so that those people can see that God loves them and that Jesudied for them.

Third talk on going abroad-illustrations from China and CCI

Further talks on going abroad-illustration of small pox workers who travelled the world to administer the vaccine

Jesus tells us to repent-we have the power to do it. Jesus died so that we could repent. Some comments Muslims may find offensive.

Christ speaks through the preacher and His word either produces faithor sin and we are responsible to act on it.His word does not return void

God speaks through people and His word-we become dull and hardened if we refuse to act on it-faith comes by hearing

We can be set free by heeding the voice of God in our lives-we've been remade in Jesus and it becomes real as we believe it

We need to act on the things we hear through a preacher or another asthe word of God-if we reject them we reject Christ

God can't become real to us unless we exercise faith and take action by trusting God with everyday affairs

Why the Jews went through the Holocaust-disobedience.How it applies to us-the freedom to choose to obey.One of the controversial tapes onthe reason for the holocaust.

Because we belong to a group or do good works we won't go to heaven unless we trust God with our lives-illustrations from Moshe Dyan,GoldMeir and Israel's history

God knows whether we are trusting and yielding to Him or ignoring Hisinvasions into our secret lives-we become what we are but moreso unless we are made new in Jesus

By believing that we as well as others have been remade in Jesus,we are able to pray others up instead of criticising them

We end up in self pity when we try to preserve our life without God- unbelief and self pity creates a perverted view of things and causes us to seek our own security and happiness apart from God.

Baal worship is depending on things or people for security rather than God-its root is unbelief-God will supply our needs if we trust Him and do the natural things that lie before us

If we disobey God and don't come to know Him we become alienated fromHim perhaps forever.God removes the wrong things from our lives or removes us e.g.the remnant of Israel

Our lives should reflect a marked change-most Christians live defeat-ed lives and have a gospel of mental assent-all talk,no action. The term `born again' has little meaning, no substance.

Because we're part of a group doesn't mean we are rightly related to God-we're meant to have a personal relationship with God and not start a self-improvement plan to please Him

Our hearts become hard if we don't deal honestly with each other-we avoid the issue of dealing with God by trying to please Him with goodworks

Because we're not closely related to God,we get in volved in works & legalism e.g.bible study,witnessing in order to prove ourselves to God-examples used from marriage and Jewish nation

Controversial! Examples from Israel of darkness and the "bent back".By rejecting God's plans and not trusting Him,we live lives that we plan without getting His mind and become darkened.

Lessons to be learned from the nation of Israel. Could be controversial to Jewish listeners. 'There backs are bent always'.

Controversial!! Talks on the holocaust-lessons learned from its history-disobedience and lack of faith bring judgement.Very contoversial from a secular viewpoint!

The ministry is given by one who preaches the gospel of freedom from sin by Jesus'work on Calvary-this is the only solution for our problems and worries.

Examination of O.T.prophecies which point to Jesus as the Messiah. Apologetic sermon specifically for Jewish people.

Response to public criticism of accusations of anti-semitism-survey of last months sermons to clarify the issue.

Examples of Joseph's attitude towards evil-God used it as part of His plan

Potentially controversial. More examples using the Jews-many are under the curse of the law cf. Romans 7.

We are fearful of giving our whole life to God-we only give Him enough to try to keep Him happy but will not allow Him to come fully into us.

The characteristics of one who is holy-the root needs to be holy for our lives to be holy-we try to make ourselves holy-God needs to cir- cise our hearts.Our problems come because of our failure to obey.

Examples from Patriarchs of walking by faith-If we spend time with God and trust Him He will reveal His plan to us and guide our lives

It is not our faith that works but Jesus' faith working in us i.e. Gal.2.20 Jesus' is our root and source and exercises His faith in us if we will let Him and our willing to obey God's plan for our lives

You're unique! It comes because God loves you and made you for a spec.purpose-it is only actualised by being born again in Jesus.We try to bring about our own individuality

Although we acknowledge that God has made everything including us, we live as if we are gods. We therefore worry as we try and control things. How do we get free from it? Lu.2.49

We have no power to solve our own problems-we try by our use of know-ledge-only by God's power in our lives is there a way to overcome- only by faith in Jesus and accepting His uncreated life e.g.Moses

Examples from Moses and the wilderness-faith in Jesus'work and trust-ing Him for all we need brings God's kindness-unbelief and disobed- ience brings God's severity e.g.ruined life of one on drugs

Examples of exercising faith from Moses-Faith releases the power of Jesus to change situations.

Do we put our faith in ourselves and circumstances and live according to what we want our in Christ and what He wants? Are we grafted into the world system or the energy of Christ?

Review of past problems resulting from anti-semitist lobby. Reasons for people taking such views.Main talk:how the Jews hearts as well asour own become hardened through rejection of Jesus and disobedience

Will all of Israel be saved? Only the "true" Israel will be saved. Talks on the end times-how we should live as we wait for Jesus' return;in holiness and purity .

God is able to give us victory regardless of how difficult the circumstances are. We need to have a simple, abandoned, trusting faith.

God gives us commands we can't naturally obey in order for us to trust Him more deeply. God carries our burdens for us!

We need to trust God in all areas of our life; future, marriage, health, many things we can't control. God loves us immensely and will take care of us.

Starts out with 'bus ride' analogy-why are we here and where are we going? We are here to become like Jesus if we obey God and listen to the voice of the HS.

Jekyll/Hyde analogy. The key to our spiritual life and walk is Paul's 'therefore'. Two vital parts;what you believe to be real and how you live in accordance with it.

Analogy of spare parts-would we sell our arm? We have been remade in Jesus and are perfect in Him. We do not belong to ourselves but God so we owe Him our all.

The implication of presenting our bodies... Jesus has destroyed our old nature and we need to repent and accept that work-not our effort but faith in His great work.

Defintion of sin and the remedy for it: hand over your life to God-He has destroyed it in Jesus. Because we deserve death, we are to present our bodies as sacrifice.

You were made to be happy. Either we accept that Jesus has made us a new creation or we conform to the fallen image of the world and become slaves to it!

The role of the mind in aiding faith to enable us to live up to the reality of Jesus' great work.
