Teaching
‘You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free’ John 8: 32
We believe in the absolute authority of the Bible and that the Bible clearly points to Jesus Christ as the Only Way, Truth and Life for mankind.
Our Bible teaching includes programmes for all ages and for varied group sizes and is an integral part of all aspects of church life and activity.
Our aim is that all who come to the church will learn from the Bible how to work out our faith in practical ways in the area in which we live guided by God’s Holy Spirit”.
We want our teaching to be relevant, Bible -based and having the practical outcome of Christ likeness in the lives of all who hear the Word of God and apply it to their everyday lives.
We aim to present what God says about key issues in our society today

Remedy: A cure for a universal sickness
Today’s reading: Romans Chapter 3
Romans 3:22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.
Throughout his arduous and adventurous life, the apostle Paul has kept one career goal constantly before him: a visit to Rome. In Paul’s day, Rome stands alone, the capital of the powerful Roman Empire, which rules over the entire Mediterranean region. A tiny new church in Rome has caused great excitement among other Christians who know that in some ways the future of the church rests on what happens in Rome. If they expect to make an impact on the world, they will have to penetrate this great city.
Paul prays for the Roman church constantly and has made plans to visit there several times. Since none of those plans has yet materialized, Paul writes this letter, a concise summary of the Christian faith.
Who’s Sick?
The remedy for human problems, Paul proclaims, is God’s amazing grace-a complete cure available to all. Yet people will not seek a cure until they know they are ill. If a doctor were to suddenly appear on a television news program announcing a cure for, say, the Paraguayan flu, who would care? For his discovery to impress us so deeply that we would seek vaccination, he must first prove the terrible danger posed by this unknown virus.
Thus Romans begins with one of the darkest summaries in the Bible. “There is no one righteous, not even one,” (Romans 3:10) Paul concludes. The entire world is doomed to spiritual death unless a cure can be found. Out of the mournful sounds, however, comes a clear, bright note of wonderful news (Romans 3:21-31), a compact expression of the core message of the gospel.
