Ruth

The book of Ruth is considered one of the most beautiful stories in the Bible. The events recorded took place during the time of the judges, which was a period of national spiritual chaos and darkness where ‘every man did that which was right in his own eyes’ (Judges 21:25) Against this background the book […]

In this teaching, given on 2nd March 2025, Pastor Barry concludes our study of Romans 11:28-36, emphasising its critical role in understanding God’s plan for the Jews, Gentiles and what awaites us in these last days.

Romans

Has God finished with Israel? That’s the question Paul asks in Romans chapter 11. His emphatic answer should put an end to the debate, yet sadly, antisemitism has been as rife in the Christian church through the centuries as it has in the world. Here, Paul not only makes his case from scripture, but warns […]
