Genesis 3; 2 Cor. 11:3; Jn 8:44

Sermon by Robert Edwards
How can we share the Gospel outside the church building? How can we share our story?
How can we encourage each other to speak, regarding the Hope that we have?
Remember what He has done for us, and others we encounter are placed there for us to share the Good News.
December 26, 2021
Where do you stand? How do you view the world?
God's Word is true. Jesus commands us to Love God and Love others as ourselves, and to preach the Gospel to the world.
How can you communicate the need for Jesus Christ to be our Saviour, to those who do not know Him?

Acts 17: 1-15; 1 Thess. 1:1-3
