Joint Online/Sanctuary Service – Living in Faith pt. 3: Confidence, Hope and Assurance unto Belief

Posted on 25 Feb 2021

With a relaxing of the lock down rules during the Coronavirus crisis the church is able to run services again in the sanctuary, but with a limited number of worshippers. However, the decision to simultaneously continue with the live-stream services online was taken.

Below is the recording of the sermon for this week. Pastor Ray Pountney introduces one of our Bible College students who brings today’s expositional and testimonial message.

Living in Faith pt. 3: Confidence, Hope and Assurance unto Belief – Hebrews 11:1, 5; Genesis 4:18-24 – Mark Ash – 4th October 2020

Reflective Hymn & Hebrews 11:1; (11:5; Genesis 4:18-24)

God is able

God is able
He will never fail
He is almighty God
Greater than all we seek
Greater than all we ask
He has done great things

Lifted up
He defeated the grave
Raised to life
Our God is able
In His name
We overcome
For the Lord
Our God is able

God is with us
God is on our side
He will make a way
Far above all we know
Far above all we hope
He has done great things

Lifted up…

God is with us
He will go before
He will never leave us
He will never leave us
God is for us
He has open arms
He will never fail us
He will never fail us

Lifted up…

Lifted up…

For the Lord
Our God is able
For the Lord
Our God is able

Hebrews 11 – Faith in Action

1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for. (NIV)

5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

Genesis 4

18 Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. 19 After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters. 20 So all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.

21 Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. 22 After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. 23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. 24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.
