Foundation Church Belfast

Glenn Wasson delivering this weeks sermon at Foundation Church Belfast.
Glenn delivers a well rounded picture, and draws our focus to the importance of carrying our cross daily and following Jesus. Finalising his talk with the all important reaching out to the unsaved with the gospel message. 

Jesus hears about a centurion's Big faith and is amazed at what he encounters. Despite not even seeing Jesus, the centurion believes in him based on what he has heard.
We too can share in this big faith when we:
Humbly approach Jesus
Recognise the authority of Jesus
Choose to trust Jesus
When we do, we shall discover a deep and growing faith in Jesus, a faith that sees God move in magnificent ways.
In the words of Smith Wigglesworth: 
Only believe, only believe!
All things are possible,
Only believe!

Jesus gives us his mission statement as he reads from the prophet Isaiah:
‘The Spirit of the Lord is on me,    because he has anointed me    to proclaim good news to the poor.He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners    and recovery of sight for the blind,to set the oppressed free,    to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.’
He then demonstrates what this looks like by healing the sick and freeing those oppressed by demonic powers; teaching people about the kingdom of God.
In his calling of Levi, Jesus shows us the pathway to being one of his disciples. It begins with calling, requires a response, and culminates in a mission for each disciple to join. 
However, there are also some that refuse the call of Jesus. The Pharisees refuse to accept that Jesus loves the outsiders, the lost, broken and sinful.
In this message, we see the radical call of Jesus to each of us, and hear the challenge to follow him with all we have - it is always worth it!

As a skilled preacher, the prophet Malachi brings his sermon to a close with a huge challenge to his listeners - the Day of the Lord is coming; how will you experience it?
For some, the Day of the Lord's appearing will be agony; for others, ecstasy. How can two such widely different responses happen on the same day?
Malachi teaches us two methods to help us prepare for the Day of the Lord's coming: 
Remembering;
Renewal
As we take these methods in hand, we find ourselves praying for God daily renew us, so we can point people to Jesus more powerfully before that great day of his coming.

David unpacks the biblical teaching of the Day of the Lord, using Malachi and the parable of the prodigal son to distinguish three groups to explain how each will face God’s judgment.
the wicked,
the religious, and
the faithful.
Key points include why mere religious practice can be empty, how true faithfulness is shown by fearing and honouring God and by fellowship with other believers, the possibility of repentance for the wicked, and the gospel: Jesus as the faithful substitute who secures mercy for those who trust him.

Pastor David, drawing from the last book in the old testament, the book of Malachi - teaches on a well known portion of scripture from chapter 3 emphasizing the Lord's unchanging nature.
He speaks on the call to repentance, and the promise of abundant blessings for the faithful.
This touches on tithing, giving with a joyful heart and being a good steward with your finances.
