Charles Simeon on ‘The Cross’

Charles Simeon rocks my socks in the way he constantly pointed people to Jesus. Here’s some quotes on the cross. 1) “My only hope is that there is a fountain open for sin and uncleanness, and that I am yet at liberty to wash in it.” 2) “Only get your soul deeply and abidingly impressed with the doctrine of THE CROSS… and everything else will soon find its proper place in your system.”

3) “I can appeal to all who have ever known me that to proclaim a suffering and triumphant Messiah… has been the one object of my life without any variation… and without any turning aside after novelties; or fond conceits, or matters of doubtful disputation.”

I’m praying that Jesus would be the one object of my life without any variation.

Gospel Graffiti – Bridge To Life

I think Hayley blogged this earlier in the year. It’s got a bit of Arminian theology in it… but that’s cool… What happens when Graffiti and The Gospel collide? Features – DJ Promote and Fasm. Produced by – The Billy Graham Evangelistic Assoc. to paint the Gospel in graffiti form for a video project dubbed “Bridge to Life”.

All Things New

‘Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”‘ Revelation 21:1-4

Jesus Life Culture Design #12

Saludos amigos! It’s been a big week on DMDC. Big hits from people searching for Michael-Guglielmucci (bad news) and Mark Driscoll (good news). I’ve been encouraged this week to keep trusting and proclaiming Jesus. If you’ve stumbled onto this blog and don’t know Jesus, christianity.net.au might help to answer some of your questions. In other big news, I will be pulling on the goal keepers gloves for the first time in 2 years in our soccer semi-final… almost as noteworthy as Mark Bosnich’s comeback! Peaceout.

Burn Your Plastic Jesus

Burn Your Plastic Jesus saw 10,000 peeps on Wednesday night at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. Mark Driscoll spent a big chunk of time doing the smack down on 7 false views on Jesus, and then showed from the Bible the Real Jesus.

There was a great buzz around the gathering and MD rocked the suburbs better than Michael Jackson! I thought there were a tad too many hymns and the music was a bit 90s. Almost every word that MD has said in the last few years is available in mp3 and high def video for free at the Mars Hill Church website, yet KCC continue to charge money for sermons!

Here’s an outline and video from the talk:
