While it is true that the word ‘gospel’ means ‘good news’, it is so necessary to get people to realize that there is a black background to the shining diamond of God’s salvation. People need to realize the solemn and desperate condition they are in as sinners before a holy and righteous God. This involves bringing up the unsavoury topic of sin. This message takes a look at sin and the wonderful salvation the God offers to put it away once and for all.

The Bible makes a very categorical statement in 1 John Chapter 5 and verse 12 - "He (or she) that hath the Son has life, and he (or she) that has not the Son of God, has not life." There are only two parts to that verse. You either have the Son - that is, truly know the Lord Jesus Christ as your own personal Lord and Saviour - or you do not. So, how about it? Do YOU have this 'life' that the Bible talks about?

In Matthew 6:33, we have the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Yes, it was taught by Christ that the kingdom of God is something that we should all strive to enter into - that is, we should make it a priority in our lives. You see, none of us are born naturally into the kingdom of God, but the good news is that the kingdom of God is as close as a humble, repentant heart. Have YOU entered that kingdom?

It’s a familiar story told by the Lord Jesus – the story of the lost sheep. As He tells this story, He paints for us a vivid picture of a poor, lost sheep – helpless and hopeless in itself. But He also describes Himself – the shepherd – the good shepherd who cares for His sheep enough to give His life. It really pictures ourselves, lost in our sins, and the Lord Jesus Christ as the Saviour or rescuer of our souls. Have you ever seen yourself as the lost sheep that Jesus came to save?

Make no mistake about it, the Lord Jesus Christ knew exactly how to answer the objections of His critics. With divine wisdom and grace, He turned their questions around to what really counts - the salvation of their souls. Listen to Phil Coulson as He explains the Saviour's words "Except Ye Repent!" Think you should take Him seriously?

The Lord Jesus Christ once asked for a drink of water from a woman at a well in a town called Sychar. Not only was He tired and thirsty, He also wanted to teach this woman about ‘living water’ – something that will satisfy forever. Something only HE could give. Today, through this well-known Bible story, speaker Peter Ramsay explains about this ‘living water’ – the water that satisfies, not only for time, but for all eternity!

The wonderful message of the cross is the main theme of the Bible. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son." How little this stupendous fact crosses the minds of sinful men and women! In fact, it was prophetically written in Lamentations 1:12 - "Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Behold and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow which is done unto me wherewith the Lord has afflicted me in the day of His fierce anger." The same question can be asked today. Is it nothing to you?

The story of the prodigal son is a well known story told by the Lord Jesus Christ about a young man who squandered his father’s inheritance and, after losing it all, returned to his father. Graciously, the father welcomed him back. But many do not know about this man’s older brother. The story never ended so well for him. Why? Listen to today’s message to find out.

Well, this week's message is all about the kindness and love of God towards us - and it's a message that we hope will remove any of your hard thoughts about God. His countless blessings on every level are something we should thank Him for every day - not the least of which is the tremendous spiritual blessing of salvation.

We believe that the gospel is the best message you could ever hear. Not only does it save the soul and open the way for an eternity in heaven, it has tremendous affects on people's lives here and now. In fact, the Christian enjoys eternal life - a new life given by God - the moment he receives Christ. So, if there isn't a change in a person's life after meeting the Saviour himself, then there is something definitely wrong. Are you a professing Christian? Has it changed your life?

This week’s broadcast looks at the atheistic worldview and its effect on present day ethical and moral decisions, specifically issues like abortion, designer babies and euthanasia. The four BIG questions of life are considered - origin, morality, meaning and destiny – and the ability of different world views to deal with them. Atheism fails to answer the questions of origin, morality, meaning or destiny. Does that sound like something you would risk your eternity on?

We all have a philosophy - a worldview as it were - the perspective that we take on life. Here on Anchorpoint, we present the Biblical worldview - the way that God would have us to understand Him and ourselves. This week’s broadcast takes a look at the secular take on life with regard to the historical development of Darwin's evolutionary theory and its damaging effect on theological thinking.

There is not a more glorious theme running throughout the Word of God than that of the precious blood of Christ. All of the Old Testament points toward the coming of the Messiah, the Lamb of God. The full and free forgiveness for sins was made available to ALL people through the sacrifice of Christ. Was His precious blood shed for you?

In this week's message we look at an interesting story from the New Testament in which ten lepers had a momentous encounter with the only One who could help them - the Lord Jesus Christ. They were helpless and hopeless. What would Christ do? Well, yes, He healed them. But for one of them, He did much more. Listen about how a short encounter with the Saviour not only restored this man his health and his family but his eternal future as well!

In the Bible, the Lord Jesus Christ answered all the questions that men put to Him. Some were genuine; others were nothing but trickery. But the most important questions were the ones He Himself asked. These were honest questions, questions that really matter. Like the day He asked the people, "What do you think of Me?" What a simple and yet searching question. And He’s looking for honesty in your answer. So, what DO you think of Christ? What is YOUR answer to life's greatest issue?

Did you know that God describes Himself in the Bible? He says He is the ONLY God - there is no other. He says that He is just - perfectly right and fair in His assessment of things. And He says that He is a Saviour. That is, He desires to save those who don't and can't meet up to His holy standards. But how can He do this? Well, there was only one who could do this – the Lord Jesus Christ. He was the holy and sinless One who gave His life to ransom others. Are YOU one of them?He is the isis

Last week we were considering the great truth that the Lord Jesus Christ, the same One who lived here on earth over 2000 years ago, who died for our sins, rose again from the dead, and ascended into heaven, will one day come again. It’s a wonderful and exciting truth for Christians, encouraging our hearts in this sad and dreary scene, and inspiring us to live each remaining day for His glory. But it’s bad news for unbelievers. For them, it will be a tragic surprise. They would be left behind to face the terrible Tribulation and later, judgment for their sins. Speaker Jack Hay, continues on this topic today starting with a reading from 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 which describes this great event in some detail.
