What is your world view? How do you interpret and make sense of how the world operates? How do you look at life and circumstances that come your way? We all have one – a perspective about the world – a world view. But what is the world view of the Bible believing Christian? How does a vital connection with the God of heaven influence our assessment…

Here's one question that you weren't likely asked today - Are your sins forgiven? Yes, your sins. Are they forgiven? On today's broadcast, we will be considering what the Bible has to say about forgiveness - WHY is it necessary? HOW can I get it? Important questions that we would like you to face honestly today. The Lord Jesus said that He has powe…

Are we all "children of God"? Well, we certainly are all God's creatures, but unfortunately, we possess the family likeness of our sinful forbears - a fallen, sinful nature. The Bible is clear that we need a second birth to bring us into the family of God. A birth from above. A spiritual birth. One that brings us into the family of God with the lik…

You know, the Lord doesn't require a lot from any one of us. In fact, He would like us to know just ONE thing. One thing. Sadly, many people don't know even this one thing. In fact, when people hear the clear truth of the gospel - that we are sinners and have offended God, that we need to acknowledge this and turn from our sin and trust Christ to s…

In today’s prevailing atmosphere of virtual experiences, cyber games, AI technology, and online relationships, it’s becoming harder to get people to face life’s true realities - realities that are not always easy to accept. People will often prefer to deny the hard facts of life. We want you to know that not all of reality is doom and gloom. Indeed…

The Lord Jesus once told a parable about a great supper prepared and ready, but all the invited guests made up different excuses not to come. Just like the man in the parable, God has also provided us with all that we need for eternity through the priceless gift of His own Son. Will you also begin to make excuse? Or will you gladly accept this wond…

There is a wonderful verse in the Bible, 1 Peter 3:18 - "For Christ also has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God". Yes, Christ has suffered the momentous judgment of God against sin, opening the way for repentant sinners to avail of God's great gift of salvation. In this week's message, Phil Coulson looks …

This week's message is the personal story of conversion of a young man who was facing emptiness in a life of nightclubs and drugs, and battling despair in the philosophies and religions of men. Evangelist Larry Perkins tells us his story of how he was found by the Lord Jesus Christ and given new life and new hope by receiving Christ personally as h…

The Gospel message is quite clear on this one point - we are ALL quite responsible here and now for what we do with God's offer, and more importantly, what we do with Christ. In today's message, speaker Gaius Goff takes a look at the 'Three Strong Wills' in our lives - God's will, the devil's will, and our will. You can be certain that God desires …

Isaiah, one of the major prophets, spoke extensively about things to come before they actually happened! And this included many details about the Saviour – His characteristics and His ministry here on earth. Some have referred to his writings as “The Gospel according to Isaiah” and they are certainly right! If you’ve never read Isaiah, Chapter 53, …

In Ephesians 1:7 we read these amazing words – “In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” Yes, it can be a present reality for everyone who hears this message today. What greater possession than having the forgiveness of sins and peace with God? Listen to the teaching about this gr…

The gospel message is full of superlatives. Its importance, its magnificence, and its consequences are all of an incomprehensible order of magnitude. It involves love's highest expression - the unbounded love of God shown to us in the person of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. And it is expressed most fully at the cross of Calvary where the Lord Jes…

There are many ways to handle the complexities of life - many ways of looking at or trying to make sense of the world around us. There is polytheism, secularism, humanism, and post-modernism to name a few. But all these fall short in fulfilling our greatest need - the need for forgiveness. The simple answer lies in John Chapter 10 which tells us cl…

Well, life has often been described as a journey, hasn’t it? Whether long or short, we just do not know. Along the pathway there are many intersections that we cross – intersections that affect our lives in definite ways. In today’s broadcast, speaker Marvin Derksen brings us the gospel message with a focus on DIVINE intersections in our lives. How…

The Lord Jesus told many stories to give us apt illustrations of ourselves. In the parable of the good Samaritan, there is a poor man ambushed on the road and left destitute.There were two people who came across the poor man, but they did nothing to help him. At last, there was a despised Samaritan who freely gave of himself to save the dying man. …

The well known story in the Bible of Zacchaeus is about much more than how a short man climbed a tree to see Jesus. It's all about a sinner who earnestly sought out the Saviour, an individual tired of his sins, a rich man sick of his money who wanted instead the true riches of God's salvation. And, yes, it's also about a seeking Saviour - one who c…

The apostle Paul was a tremendous evangelist and wrote a large portion of the New Testament explaining the doctrines of the gospel. Many people have gotten saved through the wonderful verses that the Holy Spirit led him to write - verses of conviction and verses of salvation. This episode looks at three verses in 2 Corinthians that explains for us …

Are you rich towards God? It's certainly possible not to be. In fact, if we are still sinners - if we have never been saved - then, we are definitely not rich towards Him. Our lives would be all taken up with ourselves - our own pleasures and plans. Lord Jesus Christ told a parable about such a person. Sadly, he forgot to take God into account and …

In today’s broadcast, we will be considering one of Jesus’ parables – the story of the sower and the seed. The sower threw his seed on different types of ground – hard, stony, and thorny. But the crop in each case failed. Not that there was anything wrong with the seed – no, the problem was with heart of the listener. Only when falling on GOOD grou…

It is not only in the New Testament's proclamation of the gospel that we hear about man's need and God's remedy. It is also found in the beloved book of Psalms. Today we will be looking at the 6 short verses of Psalm 53 and find there seven important truths about the subject of sin and God's attitude toward it. It will not be a pretty picture of ma…

Some people complain that the Bible is hard to understand - that it takes years to study the scriptures to figure these things out. Well, these individuals need to read just one verse to dispel that notion.1 Timothy 1:15 says "This is a faithful saying that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am chief". Why did the Lord Jesus…

The Bible speaks very simply of two roads and two destinies. One road is broad and very crowded. It has room for everybody’s opinions and ideas. It has room for every pleasure and distraction you can think of. Unfortunately, multitudes choose this road. It's easy and it steadily flows along day after day as we pursue our own desires. However, the o…

Whenever people hear the gospel presented there is always a choice to be made. Facts are given about their need and about God’s remedy. Information is given concerning the person and life of Christ and why He is worthy of your trust. But, in the end, the choice comes down to the individual. You and me. No one else can answer for us. Are you willing…

The Bible often uses metaphors to describe for us the kind of people that believers ought to be as representatives of God. In this week's broadcast, we will learn how words ‘sweet savour’, ‘letters’, ‘vessels’, ‘ambassadors' apply to our lives as Christians as we seek to win souls for Christ.By William Skates

Apart from the events surrounding the birth of Christ, we hear little about Mary throughout the scriptures. She was at the wedding feast in Cana of Galilee, at the cross, and in the upper room after Christ's resurrection. But not much else. But we can learn a lot from this humble village maiden. Check out this week's message on "Mary, Handmaid of t…

Who doesn’t like the old, familiar hymn with the catchy tune “We Three Kings of Orient are”? It conjures up images of bejewelled noblemen riding on stately ornamented camels, each with a gift in their hands. Well, the real story from the Bible is a lot different from that. Yes, there were “wise men” or magi that actually made that arduous journey i…

Not only during the Christmas season but also throughout the year, believers on the Lord Jesus Christ often are gripped with the reality of how God really came into the world as a human being - and the implications it has on their souls and on their lives. That simple story teaches many truths that have practical implications in our lives as believ…

It is so important to have right thoughts about Christ. This has a direct bearing not only on our eternal welfare but also on our daily Christian walk. The unsaved certainly do not think rightly about Him. Sadly their thoughts are confused and distorted concerning this lovely Person. Believers can also not fully appreciate His grace and awesomeness…

The resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is undoubtedly the most contested Bible truth among skeptics. Untold books have been written attempting to discredit this clearly presented Bible event, but none have succeeded. Today's broadcast looks at the arguments often put forward in the attempt to disprove Christ's resurrection. We will let the evide…

It is no secret that the Lord Jesus Christ divides. Wherever Christ went and whatever He said caused people to take sides – for or against. His message was so clear, so authoritative. A decision just had to be made. And it’s true today as well. Yes, everywhere Christ went, “there was a division because of Him”. So, where do YOU stand? Are you among…

There is not a truth more fundamental to the Christian faith than the truth of the resurrection of Christ. And it is especially at this time of year that millions around the world are confronted with this amazing claim - many with joy and thanksgiving at the blessed hope of the risen Christ, but others who refuse to believe what the Bible says. How…

1 Timothy 2:5 says, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." How much is contained in this statement! First, there is one God. This seems like an odd statement when we consider all the religions in the world. How can this be? Secondly, this verse tells us about one go-between - between man and God - and th…

Are you uncomfortable with the word 'saved'? Kind of a drastic word, isn't it? Yet, it's a scriptural term. This week's broadcast considers the word "saved" in a number of different contexts - the fact that you must be saved in order to be in heaven, that there is the possibility that all sinners might be saved through Christ, that believing sinner…

Everyone who is going to heaven has a story to tell – a story of how they first heard the gospel message and how they responded to it in saving faith. Today’s Anchorpoint is about a person who was born in a Christian home and was familiar with the gospel message since his youth. Sadly, it is possible to know ABOUT the way of salvation, but never to…

What is the value of the soul? Well, the Word of God doesn’t even attempt to give an answer. The Lord Jesus just summed it up by saying that the total of everything this world has to offer just doesn’t compare to worth of a soul. These are extremely important truths to consider, and we hope that this week's will help you to think about them and to …

How do you imagine heaven? A place of never-ending rest – a kind of celestial retirement home? Or maybe a place where you can do whatever you want? A place of beautiful architecture, scenery, and music?Well, what does the Bible say? After all, it IS God’s heaven. Has He not told us something of what that place is really like? Well, yes, He has. But…

In our broadcast today, speaker Stephen Harper looks at three questions that arose in the account of the blind man who was healed at the Pool of Siloam. The first one was “Who sinned?” – a question we should all take to heart regarding our own personal sin. Next, “How were your eyes opened? Basically, the man was asked to give his testimony – his a…

At Anchorpoint, we are seeking to clarify the Gospel message. The Bible says that you can know for sure that you are saved and ready to meet God. In our message today, speaker Phil Coulson explains how that God’s salvation is so simple, even a child can be saved. He tells us the story describing how, as a child, he came to know Christ as his Saviou…

Apart from the cross itself, there can be no more poignant a symbol of the horrendous sufferings of Christ than the awful crown of thorns that He wore. The hymn writer wrote, "See from His head, His hands, His feet; sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did e'er such love and sorrow meet; Or thorns compose so rich a crown?" It was an instrument of pai…

Over 2000 years ago, the apostle Paul was walking through the city of Athens looking at all the idols set up there when he came across one with a strange inscription, “The Unknown God”. Paul took the opportunity to preach to the people about the God that he knew and appreciated personally but was yet unknown to the people around him. Who exactly IS…

One of the most stirring questions in the entire Bible was once asked by the Lord Jesus Christ when He said, "What shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" It is difficult to think of a question that contains such stakes - such weighty issues. The answer should be obvious, shouldn't it? But, sadly, many people …

Sometimes people struggle with the Biblical term 'saved'. Often, this is simply because they don't quite get the concept of being lost. If I am saved, then it certainly implies that there was something I needed to be saved from. And there is. We all need to be saved from a purposeless life, from the unhappy consequences of sin here on earth, and mo…

The Bible speaks openly about sin and various kinds of separation that it causes. One inevitable separation is called death - something that we all have to face. But there is also the eternal separation of the unsaved in a place of judgment - hell. Wonderfully, the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ comes between our sin and God. He has bridg…

God wants us to know Him and He has given us the intelligence to learn about the world that He has made. Belief in God does not hinder science - it actually motivates us to discover more about how the world works. In this week’s episode, Mr. Michael Penfold further discusses some of the current issues in the scientific field relating to the origin …

Scientists have studied the origin of life for years and are still trying to find answers. Atheistic scientists are determined to show that life somehow arose spontaneously from non-life. But there is only one problem with this anti-theistic approach. The scientific evidence does not support it! Listen to this week’s message on this controversial t…

There are so many simple, easily understood statements in the Bible that contain all the Gospel truth you could ever need. Verses like - “Christ died for our sins”.

This week's message is the scene of a very wonderful miracle by the Lord Jesus and the story contains many important lessons for us all. Apart from showing the compassion and power of Christ in dealing with people's sickness and hardships, it also gives us a good illustration of what the salvation of God is all about.…

The Bible is filled with the promises of God - faithful promises - words that we can count on. One faithful saying is given in 1 Timothy 1:15 - that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. How wonderful is this! The mission of the Son of God in becoming a man was that sinners like ourselves could be saved. This week's broadcast is concern…

In today’s broadcast, speaker Marvin Derksen takes a closer look at the scene at Calvary. There was the cross – the awful cross upon which Jesus suffered and died.
