Rosebank Union Sermon Audio

Richard explores the facets of faith, particularly focusing on the meaning of "faithfulness". We see that faithfulness is not a short term effort but rather that grown through practice, repitition and dedication. We also discover that it is sourced from humility and trust in Christ which makes it one of the greatest attributes and generates a direct link with Christ and His faithfulness to us.

Richard explores the dimensions of faith, particularly focusing on the distinction between “faith” and “the faith.” We see that faith is not "faith in faith" but saving faith in Jesus Christ and his death and resurrection. This faith serves as the switch that connects believers to the power station of Christ’s sacrifice!

For many of us, being forgotten is a fate worse than death. Justin unpacks Isaiah 49:13-16 to see what God says about forgetting us.~~~Plan a visit to Rosebank Union Church in Sandton, Johannesburghttps://ruc.org.za/visit
