What can we learn today from the obedience Joseph showed in responding to what had been revealed to him? Will your guiding principle be the Gospel of Christ, the kindgom of God and his will for your life? Or will it be something else?
Why did Jesus come into the world? The angel of the Lord told Joseph in a dream that Mary, "will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” Why is this salvation necessary? What did this salvation require? And how is this salvation received? Listen to Rev Paul Gibson preaching on Matthew 1:21.
Why is it so important that Jesus was born of a virgin? Rev Paul Gibson preaches on why the Lord's divine origin is so important, why his true human nature matters and what the sinless perfection of his humanithy means for us, even today.

Wil Urquhart encouraged us to spend time with the Lord. Dig into God's Word every morning and let His Word dig into you. Remember that when Jesus sends his people out into his work, He goes with them. No matter what storms and difficulties we encouter, we can know that when we are walking in obedience to the Lord and we keep our eyes on him, he will always be with us.
Revelation 22:1-5; Ezekiel 47:1-12
In the third and final part of John's vision of the New Jerusalem, God gives us a glimpse of what we will see and experience in Heaven with Him. The fullness and unhinered presence of the living God with us and His loving provision for us will cause the people of God to dwell in perfect communion with Him and delight in praising Him.
Luke gives us two intertwining stories in chapter 1. Nathan Kish explains the promises that are being made to Zechariah and to Mary. We can learn lessons by comparing and contrasting each of their responses and understanding how God fulfils these promises as fulfillments of his prophecies in the Old testament of the Messiah that was about to arrive.
Revelation 21 is a picture of the great promises of Christ fulfilled in glory. He's building his church and he's returning to bring all his people to be with him where he is. Rev Gibson brings out the beauty of the church in her glorified state as the whole of God's kingdom becomes the 'holiest of holies'. When God dwells with his people in eternity he himself is their glory and they reflect him perfectly.
Psalm 145
Westminster Shorter Catechism Question 4; What Is God? God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in his being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth.
In Revelation chapter 21, the Apostle John gives us a further glimpse into the magnificance of heaven and the eternal blessing that they will enjoy as they dwell with him in that place. Rev Gibson preaches on the great blessings of the presence of God himself, the fact that all believers will have been perfectly prepared to be there and the reasons why they will have perfect peace with God for evermore.
What lens do you see the world through? What would change how you see things? James Murray teaches how a glimpse of the holiness of God shook Isaiah to the core and changed him. Listen to understand more about the only two reponses we all will have when we stand before him. Which one will you have?
Revelation 20
How do you view the millennium period? Pre-millennial, Post-millennial, or A-millennial?
Psalm 96; John 4:1-26
Westminster Shorter Catechism Question 4; What Is God? God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in his being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth.
Revelation 19:11-21
In this section of Revelation 19, the focus is on the power and the glory of Jesus Christ as he returns on the last day to execute His Judgement. Rev. Paul GIbson explains 3 ways in which Christ is glorified through His perfect judgement.
Psalm 19:7-14; Luke 24:13-27
Rev. Paul Gibson explains question 3 of the Westminster Shorter Catechism; What do the Scriptures principally teach? The Scriptures principally teach what man is to believe concerning God, and what duty God requires of man.
What is the reason for the joy that believers will know at The Marriage Supper of the Lamb (the Wedding Feast of Christ and his Bride, the Church)? Rev Paul Gibson teaches from Revelation 19:6-10 on the joy and great delight that believers will know when they are in eternity.
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them."
Revelation 19 tells us about the great rejoicing that takes place in heaven but have you ever wondered what it is particular that the Bride of Christ (believers in Christ) will be rejoicing in and worshiping God for?

Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God…For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.” Archives
