In this sermon, the parable of the tenants in Matthew 21 is used to show how God’s people rejected His prophets and ultimately His Son, Jesus Christ. The vineyard represents God’s kingdom, entrusted to His people to bear fruit, yet instead they chose rebellion and defiance. Jesus reveals Himself as the rejected cornerstone, who through the cross becomes the very foundation of God’s salvation plan. The message calls us to examine our hearts, repent from elf-centred living, and embrace Christ as Lord. Only by building on Him as the cornerstone can we live fruitful lives that glorify God.

This sermon unpacks Jesus’ parable of the wedding feast, showing that God’s kingdom is like a banquet where all are invited to share in fellowship with Him. While many reject His generous invitation, often choosing other priorities, God continues to extend His call to all people—both “good and bad.” Yet, entry into the kingdom is not on our own terms but by being clothed in the righteousness of Christ. The message highlights the seriousness of rejecting God’s rule, which leads to destruction, and the joy of accepting His call, which leads to life. Ultimately, the sermon reminds us that God patiently invites us to turn to Him, repent, and celebrate in His eternal feast.

This sermon unpacks the opening of Mark’s Gospel, showing how John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus as foretold by the prophets. At His baptism, Jesus is revealed as God’s beloved Son, empowered by the Spirit, and set on a mission that would lead to the cross and victory over sin and Satan. The preacher emphasises the urgency of repentance and belief, reminding us that the gospel is the true good news and the only hope for salvation. Christianity is not a partial commitment but a call to make Christ the central authority and organising principle of our lives. The message concludes with a clear challenge: today is the time to repent, believe, and live under the kingship of Jesus.

Milani - It's Time For You To Grow - Part I - David Kobedi - (Sunday 31 August 2025)

This sermon, drawn from 1 Corinthians 6:12–20, addresses the call to honor God with our bodies by fleeing sexual immorality and embracing holiness. It exposes the lie that personal freedom means doing whatever we want with our bodies, reminding us instead that we were “bought with a price” through Christ’s blood. Pastor Roydon highlights that unchecked appetites enslave us, but true freedom is found in submitting our bodies to the Lord. Both marriage and singleness are presented as God-given ways to glorify Him, with sex within marriage serving as a reflection of the gospel’s selfless love. Ultimately, the sermon urges believers to look back to Christ’s sacrifice, look inside to the indwelling Spirit, and look forward to the resurrection hope, living now in the light of God’s eternal glory.
