A COLLECTION OF SERMONS AND ARTICLES  

Table of   butscroll.gif (1032 bytes)  Contents

 

A collection of sermons and articles reflecting the current teachings of the Worldwide Church of God, the church that was formerly a fundamentalist group that has been led to see the light of grace.

Purpose

These sermons and articles are not an official or in anyway meant to be a definitive collection.  They are  assembled here with the hope and prayer that through reading them, some may be led to know the grace of God and the love of Jesus a little better through the guidance, not of the writers' ideas, but that of the Holy Spirit and the word of God.

Background

I am a pastor of the three congregations of the Worldwide Church of God in Tasmania, the southern island state of Australia.  I previously pastored our Newcastle, New South Wales church, and put together a church website which included a brief collection of my sermons.  The Worldwide Church of God was undergoing a great series of changes in doctrine and practice, embracing the wheat of faith and grace, and throwing away the chaff of exclusivism, legalism and fundamentalism.  I noted after some time, that the sermon section of the site was by far the most popular and most commented on.  My audience for the published sermons was apparently larger than my live listeners.

Having moved to Tasmania, it seemed inappropriate to leave my sermons on the Newcastle site for much longer, so I decided rather than including them on our Tasmanian site, to give them a place of their own.   And here they are, and here you are!  I'm glad you've found them.  

I hope to regularly add more, so please check back every few weeks to see what's new.

Just check the Table of Contents page to see what is here.

 

The Worldwide Church of God

Formerly an exclusive, fundamentalist group led by Herbert W. Armstrong, the Worldwide Church of God has gone through a much heralded "reformation."  It has now become an orthodox, evangelical, Christian denomination.
