Saints leading saints by serving
We are saints by calling on the way to heaven, by faith in the cross and the power Spirit. We go together, there no such thing as alone in Christianity, alone is foolishness. Together, therefore organization is necessary and there are parts to play so that the organization of the church matches the mission and the message. There are leaders in the church of equals. Real leaders and really equal because we have a common identity and a common mission. Your leaders are saints leading saints by serving.

A Better Offering
The blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ was a better offering than any other in history. Old Testament sacrifices were offered on earth, His was in heaven; they were temporary, His was permanent; they were imperfect, His was perfect; they couldn't purify the heart, His could; they couldn't provide eternal security, but His promises us heaven.

We believe in the Church
If we’re honest, I’m sure some of us feel that going to church on a Sunday is a good thing, but its not too important and other things may be more important. I’ve been a Christian about 13 years and I’ve noticed something else as I’ve moved in Church circles. We can be really quick to criticise the church – to point out all its problems. In fact it’s striking that in the secular world people are often more loyal to their sports club, or choir, or political party than we are in the Christian world to the church. And I think these things are very sad, in fact tragic. It is upsetting when we are casual about church, and devastating when Christians do down the Church. Because the Church isn’t just some kind of club. We’re not just united by the fact we’ve paid some annual membership fee, or because we’ve got some hobby in common or we’ve been to the same school. We’re united in the Lord Jesus Christ who died for us. As we are in Him and He is in us, so we are intimately united to every other true believer. We’re united to them whether they are male or female, rich or poor, educated or uneducated, whatever their nationality. The Church is unlike any other body. More than that, the Bible speaks of the Church as the future bride of Christ. Jesus says He will build His Church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. The Church is established and built by Jesus. He loves the Church, so why, so often don’t we? Well, it is my prayer, that by the end of our time together this morning, the Lord Jesus will have given each of us a greater love for His church.

The Lord's Supper
Jesus instituted “The Lord’s Supper” or “Holy Communion”, an ordinance or an observed memorial of the gifts of Jesus’ body and blood for the sins of the world. Just as the Passover lamb was a type/symbol of the coming Lamb of God…The Communion bread and wine are type/symbol of the body and blood of the Lamb who came and gave his life for us.

Jesus, you're fired?
I think we would all agree with the following statement: 'The one true Good Shepherd is Jesus', but did Jesus shepherd/pastor like our modern day pastors? What would it really be like if Jesus was our church pastor today? Jesus did things, went places, connected with fringe people, taught things like no one else. How would we respond if Jesus did those things today as our pastor? Would we as a church embrace the unexpected challenge of a whole new life or would we fire Jesus as our pastor? Honestly just how would you and I deal with Pastor Jesus? Key Passage: Luke 15:1-7
