And praying for people in those difficult situations." [22:26] (23 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

"In Sydney I often take it for granted that the Bible is going to be taught. When you come to church. And that the things we do. And the leaders we have. Will reflect God's plans and teaching. But that's not the case everywhere. And so that's why it's an important structure to be part of. And to encourage people in." [21:39] (19 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

"And the unexpected thing that happened two weeks ago. At the end of GAFCON I was asked to preach at the Diocese of the Southern Cross Church on the Sunshine Coast. I'd met the leaders of this church a couple of years ago. At a previous GAFCON conference. And they actually used to be part of the Uniting Church up there in Queensland. And the leadership of the Uniting Church told the local leaders. That they had to accept same sex marriage within their church. And endorse that. And once the leaders of the local church there said they couldn't do that. They were kicked out of their building. The locks were changed. They were kicked out of the house. And all those things. And so GAFCON was able to provide a structure for them." [22:26] (44 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

"Well today. We are looking at our series. Of the apostles creed. And there is a phrase that we are looking at. But we have seen as we have worked through. Different parts of the creed. Different lines. That remind us of different biblical teaching. We are not looking at the creed. Because the creed in and of itself. Has great authority. But it captures. And has been used for hundreds and thousands of years. To summarise the teaching of the bible. So that we would be. Familiar with. What is in the bible. So when we hear teaching that doesn't match it. We will recognise it doesn't fit. With that summary. That has been passed down to us." [32:16] (42 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

"And so in a sense the implications of jesus the king sitting on the throne is that he also has the power to judge he has the discernment of right and wrong he brings the justice that we long for is to look at our broken and fallen world and say come lord jesus because we want things fixed it's not right for it to continue that evil continues to perpetuate the harm it does and the pain it does and on that day when jesus is revealed on the throne he will indeed come in judgment and bring that justice that we long for and so for those who have trusted in jesus who have accepted what he's done on the cross that we've referred to earlier in the creed we know this is a good day a day we can look forward to because it's a day when the wrongs of the world are put right and the work that jesus has done in our place is revealed in its fullness that you and i as children of god are forgiven and have been welcomed into his family as forgiven people as children of the king as those jesus takes our place for and so we can look to that day with confidence."

"Jesus died on the cross and rose again a long time ago and we live thousands of years later and i might have done some things and confess my sin and feel forgiven but what if i've done things that i haven't asked sorry for as a child i remember times i was worried when i went to bed and i'd pray have i remembered everything that i've done wrong today and said sorry for every single thing but what if i forgot something what if i died and and i've missed a few things but what we're assured when we see and understand what jesus has really done on the cross is he's paid for all our sins past present and future it's not that he needs to go back to the cross again because this week when you slip up maybe he forgot that bit he's already paid for it but that doesn't mean we can just sin as much as we want for we want to live in a way that pleases and honors him as one who loves us and we love him but we can have assurance in our relationship with him because he has paid for it all and he's made it possible for us to be forgiven and so in him we can find peace he is on his throne and he has declared that your sins are forgiven and taken as far as the east is from the west and he's demonstrated his power and authority over sin on the cross."
