Exodus 12:1-13 — In this passage we have God’s instructions for Israel’s protection from the tenth and final plague. These instructions centred around a lamb, its death and its blood. God was instituting the Passover and in so doing He gave what is perhaps the clearest and most significant picture of the work of Jesus…
Nehemiah 10:1-30 — It is the response after one says “Amen” that truly matters, for that proves the authenticity of what was prayed. A glorious prayer had just been prayed. Confession was made for the sins of the people but it didn’t just stop with prayer, there was practical change. Spiritual reformation began with the people…
Romans 5:8 — “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” What is the nature of God’s love? Who are are the recipients of God’s love?

Their were words…
Exodus 7:14-12:30 — In this study, Pastor Brendan answers some questions about the Ten Plagues in order to deepen our understanding. Some of these questions include: Why were there ten? How long did the plagues last? Is there any historical evidence for the plagues outside of the Bible?
Exodus 7-12 — In this sermon, Pastor Brendan gives us an overview of the Ten Plagues. He talks about how we should interpret the plagues and about their significance in God’s dealings with Egypt, Pharaoh and the Children of Israel.
