Sermons
Without Hesitation
This is the sermon on Mark 1:16-20 written and delivered by Mrs. Janie WIlliams on January 28th to the congregation of First Presbyterian Church of London. This is the second sermon in a series of sermons on the Gospel of Mark.
Jesus Is Baptized
This is the text of the first in a series of sermons and Bible studies on the Gospel of Mark. In this sermon, I made a case that the doctrine of the Trinity is displayed in the baptism of Jesus. Special thanks to King Duncan for his sermon title, suggested illustrations, and general outline. I preached this message on the Sunday our new elders were ordained and installed
The Defining Moment
This is a sermon about a man named Simeon and how God called him to wait at the temple daily until the Messiah was brought to the temple as a baby. Jesus is brought to the temple for his circumcision and dedication to the Lord. Simeon is drawn to this child and is immediately aware that this baby named Jesus is the Messiah, the glory to the people of Israel. Luke 2:21-40
Second Sunday of Advent
Our Scripture is focused today on Mark 1:1-8, a passage that holds immense significance, particularly as we find ourselves engaged with the Second Sunday of Advent. As I said the last time we met, Advent is not just about anticipating Jesus’ birth; it's about preparing our hearts for His coming, both as the babe in Bethlehem and as the returning King in glory.
Third Sunday of Advent
On this third Sunday in Advent, we again turn our attention to a remarkable figure: John the Baptist. The people wondered who John the Baptist was. He appeared as a rather strange person who came from the wilderness, preaching repentance, dressed in camel's hair, surviving on a diet of locust and wild honey. John the Baptist was the beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ. Yet his message of good news seemed as strange as his attire.
