St John’s Diamond Creek Talks

No Reconciliation Without Unity || NAIDOC Week || 2 Corinthians 5:11-21

Neville Naden from Bush Church Aid brings today's message.
There’s no reconciliation without unity. Secular reconciliation requires one person doing something for someone, and that person returning the favour. Biblical reconciliation though says that God has done everything required for reconciliation. We have relationship with God, meaning we are in relationship with each other as the body of Christ.

The Second Coming || Always Remember || 2 Peter 3

Are you waiting for something exciting? As followers of Jesus, we all are - his second coming. So far, Christians have been waiting 2,000 years, and there are certainly those who scoff at the idea of Jesus coming back. This isn't new though; as Peter writes in this passage, there were already scoffers scoffing just a few years after Jesus' death and resurrection!
Have your bible ready at 2 Peter chapter 3 as Kirk brings us the conclusion of our Alway Remember series.
