The King and the Priest (Reflections on Psalm 110 part 3)
In Genesis 14, Abram is established as a strong powerbroker in the land of Canaan when a terrible thing happens.

Be Alert … Be Ready
“Destined for greatness … pacing myself” says one of Sarah’s favourite T-shirts. Personally, I’m not good at the whole pacing thing. I don’t like to be at events on time, I like to be there early and I like to see people involved there in good time too. The closer we get to the start… Continue reading Be Alert … Be Ready

Trusting God for the long-haul (2 Peter 3:1-7)
Have you noticed the consistent theme that has come through the recent government briefings. Within that umbrella word “government” I am including the road map document, civil servants, science officers and the devolved governments in Scotland. I know there were some controversial issues, some confusing messages and some disagreement. However, everyone was agreed that we… Continue reading Trusting God for the long-haul (2 Peter 3:1-7)
False Teachers are useless and Dangerous (2 Peter 2:17-22)
I’ve watched a few online talks, sometimes the person doing the talk has a proper to start with, a coffee cup they pretend to drink from. It is embarrassingly obvious that they are miming with an empty cup. Why would you do that? We always make sure we turn up to our facebook afternoon tea… Continue reading False Teachers are useless and Dangerous (2 Peter 2:17-22)
Being filled with the Spirit and not drunk on wine (Sealed with the Spirit 5)
What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit. I have often heard two illustrations for this. That we are like jugs and the Holy Spirit like water. Just as the jug may lose water as it is drunk or spilt, so we can lose some of the fullness of the Spirit and need… Continue reading Being filled with the Spirit and not drunk on wine (Sealed with the Spirit 5)
