Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The theme for the coming few Sunday mornings is “God’s Affirmative Action Program.” Today we are talking about God's Affirmative Action Program: The Reason. Governments like to talk about affirmative action programs. They can be programs that see that businesses make right some wrongs, balancing some imbalances, correcting some faults, ultimately, to bring reconciliation. More often than not, these government programs are not so good for the wider population, and really are no more than taking from one group of people to give to another. A redistribution of wealth wrapped up in a government program. God also had an affirmative action program designed to bring reconciliation, proper, true reconciliation between God and man. On these Sundays leading up to Christmas, we will examine God’s affirmative action program as expressed in the beginning of John’s gospel, John 1:1-18. The first matter to consider is the reason for God’s affirmative action program. Why did God need one? Because humans had sinned against their Creator and broken fellowship with Him, God had to make a way for them to come back into right relationship with Him. He showed His love for humankind by initiating a plan to restore them to a position of right standing. Just as we say, “I love you,” with words and action, that is how God communicated His love to us. He sent His Son, the living Word, to earth. John 1:1 NKJV 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is the Holy Spirit, how we recognise Him, and how we should respond to Him. The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.” Today we are talking about The Holy Spirit Invites You. Humankind’s greatest need is to know God through faith in Jesus Christ. Because our deepest need is spiritual, God sent His Son to die on a cross to show His love for us and to conquer death that He might demonstrate to us the reality of eternal life. Following this great redemptive activity accomplished by Jesus Christ, God sent His Holy Spirit into the church and into the world to invite all nonbelievers to come to Jesus Christ through faith that they might receive the gift of eternal life and become the children and servants of God. If you are still a nonbeliever, you may be shocked to learn that the Holy Spirit of God is in the world today inviting you to become a believer in Jesus Christ. The words of our text declare the purpose of the church and of the Holy Spirit is to invite you to come to Jesus Christ, who is the fountain living waters. He alone can quench the thirst of your soul. Our Scripture reading urges us to listen attentively and responsively as the Holy Spirit of God speaker to our innermost being. Jesus, in the closing days of His ministry, detailed some of the activities on the Holy Spirit who would come on the day of Pentecost. One of the primary functions of the Holy Spirit was to bear testimony to people’s consciences regarding who Jesus Christ is and what He came to do.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is the Holy Spirit, how we recognise Him, and how we should respond to Him. The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.” Today we are talking about The Holy Spirit, A Living Gift. Many different options are available to someone who is eager to bestow a gift on someone they love. Some gifts are inanimate in nature and last a long time. Others, like flowers, are perishable. There are also living gifts like puppies, kittens, and plants. God our Father has seen fit to bestow a living gift of a different nature within the mind and heart of each of His children at the moment of their conversion, the gift of the Holy Spirit, who is the living presence of God himself.

The theme is “Recognising and Responding to God’s Gift of the Holy Spirit.” Today we are talking about The Gift of the Holy Spirit. We all like to receive gifts. Parents enjoy receiving gifts from their children, and children enjoy receiving gifts from their parents. Husbands enjoy receiving gifts from their wives, and wives enjoy receiving gifts from their husbands. People enjoy receiving gifts from their friends. Employers occasionally receive gifts gifts from their employees, and employees enjoy receiving gifts from their employers. There are times when we give gifts to strangers, and there are times when we receive gifts from strangers. But God is the greatest giver of gifts. James declared in James 1:17, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Our Lord contrasted the good gifts of God with the ability of fallen man to give good gifts to his children, Matthew 7:11, If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

Brother Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj joined us at The Refinery and asked the question, What Level Is Your Faith?

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is evangelism, sharing the gospel with a sense of urgency, seeking to persuade the uncommitted and non believers to put their faith in Jesus Christ. The theme is “Today Is the Day of Salvation.” Today we are talking about Salvation in the Present. There are three days on everybody’s calendar, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Many people miss today because they are living in yesterday. Others miss the present because they are worried about tomorrow.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church. “Beneath the Cross of Jesus” is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross. Today’s message is titled The Face Of Faithfulness: John. Christianity began with a group of men gathered by Jesus, but at the cross Christianity resembled a woman’s movement. Of the twelve men Jesus made apostles, only one was faithful to the end. Four faithful women stood with this one man until the end. One of them was Mary, Jesus’ mother. Her sister was there also. Mary Magdalene was another of the four, and with her was the wife of Clopas. But tonight we want to focus our attention on John. His face beneath the cross is the face of faithfulness. A study of John’s presence at the cross will help us in our pursuit of faithfulness. Until next time Stay in the Blessings

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church. “Beneath the Cross of Jesus” is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross. Today’s message is titled The Face Of Failure, Simon Peter. Any of us could have done what Peter did. Failure as a disciple does not require exceptional weakness or extreme character flaws. This careful record of Peter’s failure is a good reminder of this fact. Peter, a chief apostle, was present at the cross as a failure. Let’s review the facts we know about Peter so that we can put his failure into proper perspective. He joined the followers of Jesus very early after his brother, Andrew, brought him to Jesus. He gave up a fishing business to become a fisher of men. Jesus chose him to be one of the twelve apostles and later included him in the inner circle. He was present at the transfiguration of our Lord and was an eyewitness of most of his miracles. He has received personal instruction from the Lord on a daily basis for over three years before his failure. Peter had not always been a failure. He was the one who gave the bold confession that so delighted Jesus’ heart. Peter had never been without words before. But now under the pressure of the circumstance, facing the scrutiny of the group in the courtyard of the high priest, he vehemently denied three times that he knew the Lord. Though he had loved the Lord, he denied Him. Most of us who have been disciples a while can identify with Peter. We know the pain of failure. We can learn from Peter’s experience.

Welcome to Refinery Life Australia. The focus for the coming few Sunday mornings is evangelism, sharing the gospel with a sense of urgency, seeking to persuade the uncommitted and non believers to put their faith in Jesus Christ. The theme is “Today Is the Day of Salvation.” Today we are talking about The Joy of Knowing Jesus Christ as Saviour. As Paul wrote his letter to the Ephesians, he was rejoicing over the blessings of God that had come upon them as a result of their faith in Jesus Christ as saviour. Ephesians 2 points out some of the relationships that make indescribable joy possible in the heart of each one who receives Jesus Christ as Saviour, Lord, Teacher, and Friend.

Welcome to Refinery Life Church. “Beneath the Cross of Jesus” is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross. Today’s message is titled The Face Of Favour, Simon of Cyrene. Were you there when they crucified my Lord? Simon of Cyrene was. As we study the faces beneath the cross, we find the face of this favoured man. He carried the cross to Golgotha, where Jesus was crucified. We will use our imaginations this evening to fill in some of the details that are implied and see Simon’s story as it may have been. Simon was born into a dedicated Jewish home in the North African city of Cyrene. His parents expressed their faith at his birth by naming him Simon, the name of one of the famous sons of Jacob the patriarch. As Simon grew into manhood, he probably dreamed of going to Jerusalem to observe Passover. Such a pilgrimage was the aspiration of all the faithful Hebrew people scattered across the world. Finally, Simon the Cyrene had the opportunity and was about to realise his dream. We can imagine his heart beating with excitement as he entered the Holy City for the first time. when he arrived in Jerusalem, he found the city in an uproar. Everyone was talking about the teacher from Galilee. they were sharp divided over Jesus’ identity. Some were certain that He was the long awaited Messiah, but others considered Him a false prophet. There were reports that the leaders of the people were plotting His death. On the day of the great Passover, Simon stumbled on a strange spectacle as he entered the city. He saw a noisy crowd gathered around a group of soldiers. In the middle of the soldiers was an obviously weary man dragging a Roman cross. Most of the crowd were heckling the condemned Man. The soldiers were prodding Him to hurry Him up. Anyone watching could see that He was about to fall under the weight of the cross. when Simon saw what was happening, he decided to stay in the shadows. Just then the soldiers decided they had had enough of the slow pace of the tired criminal. They wanted to finish their assignment. They looked around for someone to carry the cross, and their eyes fell on Simon. One of them grabbed Simon. “You!” He growled. “You take this cross out to the hill.” Because he was a Jewish man, Simon was powerless to refuse. Roman soldiers had the power to conscript any non Roman anytime they pleased. Reluctant and embarrassed, Simon shouldered the cross and followed the soldiers to Golgotha. Maybe was the outcry of the women that caused Simon to take a second look at the condemned Man. Somewhere along the way, he became aware that he was carrying the cross of Jesus of Nazareth. It is easy for us to see that the soldiers unknowingly granted Simon tremendous favour. Any of us who know Jesus would have been glad to carry the cross. Yet in a real sense the opportunity to bear His cross is always with us. The cross symbolised all of the shame and disapproval that accompanied the life and death of Christ. The ross was what it cost our Lord to do the will of His Father. If we choose to walk in His ways, we, too, will bear His cross. This event changed Simon’s life forever. What a favoured man he was!

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church. “Beneath the Cross of Jesus” is the theme for this series that consists of eight biographical sermons about the people who were there when Jesus was dying on the cross. Today’s message is titled The Face Of Fortune, Barabbas. Pilate presented Barabbas to the crowd as an alternative, seeking to escape his responsibility the ordeal. His training in Roman justice made it difficult for him to condemn an innocent man. Pilate’s offer takes on special significance if both of these men had the same name. Many scholars believe that the full name of Barabbas was Jesus Barabbus. There is some written evidence to support this. And if this was the case, the crowd had to choose between Jesus of Nazareth and Jesus Barabbas. The face of Barabbas is truly the face of good fortune. Never has a better thing happened to a man on the day of his expected crucifixion. Jesus of Nazareth probably died on the cross that had been prepared for Jesus Barabbas. When the Sabbath came, Jesus was lying in a tomb and Barabbas was sleeping in his own bed. This graphically sets forth the central truth of the gospel, “Christ died for us.” Until next time Stay in the Blessings

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church. We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ. This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.” Today’s message is titled To Err Is Human, To Forgive Is Divine. One more story remains in this series from the life of Joseph. Events moved rapidly after the cupbearer finally told Pharaoh about the prisoner who had such wonderful ability because of his God. Pharaoh called on Joseph to interpret his dream. Soon the Hebrew boy was made prime minister of the land, second only to the king himself. Later his brothers came to Egypt to but grain during the famine. For a short time, Joseph played cat and mouse with them, but at last he revealed himself to them. One of the noblest statements in God’s Word is Joseph’s address to his brothers. Not only did he forgive them for what they had done, but he went so far as to say that God was actually using them in His plan when they sold him as a slave. Of course, Joseph’s forgiveness did not lessen their guilt, but it may have diminished their fears of his possible revenge. This evening, let’s look at some truths from this story.

Hey everyone and welcome to Refinery Life Church. We are in a continual process of being changed into the image of Jesus Christ. This month we are discussing Jacob’s son Joseph, I have titled this series “Lessons from Joseph.” Today’s message is titled Ingratitude Is a Hard Hearted Foe. Even while he was in prison, Joseph’s impeccable character shone through. The prison warden recognised Joseph’s integrity and put him in charge of all the prisoners. Like Potiphar, the warden gave Joseph free rein, and God blessed him even in prison. Some time later, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker were thrown in prison, and once again dreams entered Joseph’s life. One night the cupbearer and the baker both had strange dreams, and the next morning Joseph interpreted their dreams correctly. The cupbearer was restored to his position, but the baker was killed. Joseph refused to take credit for his wisdom but gave it to God. Also, he asked the cupbearer to remember him kindly and mention him to Pharaoh. The cupbearer agreed, but after he was restored to favour, he failed to keep his promise. Let’s look at this story more closely and find some truths. Until next time Stay in the Blessings
