Our guest speaker, Pastor Pat from Spain, brings our King of Kings series to a finale with the challenging and inspiring message to chose Christ, not compromise.

The King of Kings is also the Lamb of God. Jesus was born in order to die and take away the sins of the world.

The greatest gift of all, was the gift of the Jesus - the long promises Messiah. He arrived in time, on time.

After his baptism, Jesus went into the wilderness for 40 days to be tested before the start of his years of ministry. We all go through a time of probation - a trial period, an experimental appointment to see how we get on - before God promotes us into our calling. Probation precedes promotion During the probation our character is refined, our temperament is tested, we become the person able to tackle the task God has set before us

At the start of the Advent season, we often think about the imminent arrival of the King of Kings, in a manger in Bethlehem. However, this week Dave Jones gets us to think about the imminent return of the King of Kings and reminds us what the King expects his servants to have been doing in his absence.

Every day we navigate the competing pressures of trying to juggle our priorities, follow our passions and handle our problems. How much of a difference would it make if our every priority was set by Jesus, our Passions were inspired by Him and our Problems were handed over to Him to resolve?

Is God really in control? The sovereignty of God is one of the most important core principles of our faith - important because if we don’t understand it we are easily led astray, manipulated or trapped in false expectations and assumptions about God which can lead to the shipwrecking of our faith.

This week Andrew Dickerson kicks off our new series King of Kings and asks the question: Are you ready to meet the King of Kings?
