Kisim sanap bilong mipela

Pasin bilong sanap strong long tok tru i no bin bikpela samting olsem, na i no gat hatwok olsem. Yumi stap long taim we planti taim ol i save paulim bilip wantaim pasin bilong no inap karim hevi, na ol i save litimapim nem bilong kompromis olsem gutpela tingting. Tasol ol lain i bihainim Krais i kisim singaut long mekim wanpela samting i antap moa — long sanap strong na i no long pasin antap o belhat, tasol wantaim strongpela tingting, bilip, na pasin sori.
Tok bilong Pol long ol Korin i gat strong na i stret yet: “Yupela i mas was gut, sanap strong long bilip, sanap strong na sanap strong.” (1 Korin 16:13, NIV). Insait long wanpela kalsa we i subim yumi long bihainim, bilip bilong yumi i mas sanap strong long bilip, na i no long gutpela pasin. Olsem Daniel long Babilon, ol i singautim yumi long holim gutpela pasin insait long ol ples we inap salensim ol pasin bilong yumi. “Daniel i tingting strong long em i no ken mekim em yet i kamap doti.” (Daniel 1:8). Strong bilong em i no kam long pablik tok orait tasol long praivet devosen. Pasin bilong sanap strong i stat long ol ples we yu no inap lukim — long prea, long Skripsa, long ol disisen bilong olgeta de we i no gat narapela man i lukim. Wanpela lida tru i save sanap pastaim long ol i askim em long mekim olsem bikos bilip i kamap pinis long stap isi wantaim God. Strong i save kamap taim yu stap wanpis pastaim long ol i traim em namel long ol manmeri.

Tok bilong Jisas i kirapim yumi long tingim trupela fridom: “Na bai yupela i save long tok tru, na tok tru bai i mekim yupela i kamap fri.” (Jon 8:32, NIV). Trut tude planti taim ol i save tingim olsem samting we i save senis senis na i no gat as bilong en, tasol Jisas i tokaut long Em yet olsem "rot, tok tru, na laip." (Jon 14:6). Askim tru bilong yumi em olsem: bai yumi bihainim tok tru i stap oltaim o bihainim ol samting i save kamap sotpela taim tasol? Satrak, Mesak, na Abednego i sanap strong taim olgeta narapela i brukim skru. Strongpela tingting bilong ol i no pasin bilong bikhet tasol pasin bilong rispek ( Daniel 3:16–18 ). Insait long ol wok ples bilong yumi, ol skul, na ol komyuniti bilong yumi, ol 'modern idol' i luk narapela kain, tasol presa bilong brukim skru i stap yet. Sapos yumi sanap strong long tok tru, dispela inap mekim na yumi no gat bel isi, tasol dispela i save bringim fridom long sait bilong spirit na God i laikim yumi. Integriti i no save kamap planti taim, tasol em i save gat strong oltaim.

Tasol sanap strong i no min olsem sanap strong. "Noken larim pasin nogut i daunim yu, tasol yu mas daunim pasin nogut wantaim gutpela pasin." (Rom 12:21, NIV). Long sanap strong em i no long mekim nois; em i long pasin bilong laikim narapela. Jisas i soim dispela taim Em i bungim meri ol i holim em i mekim pasin pamuk. Em i no sutim tok long meri na em i no sutim tok tru, na em i tok, "Mi tu mi no kotim yu. Go nau na lusim laip bilong yu bilong sin." (Jon 8:11). Rot bilong Krais em i no long singaut strong moa long wol tasol long lait moa insait long en. Ol bilip bilong yumi i mas i gat pasin sori oltaim. Long taim bilong dijitel, taim ol tok pait i kamap long ol skrin na ol nek i kamap bikpela long tingting na i no long tingting, ol i save singautim yumi long stap isi. Lidasip i save gro taim ol narapela i pilim olsem bilip bilong yumi i stap long lav, na i no long tok nogut.

Sanap wantaim i save givim strong taim sanap wanpis i pilim olsem i no inap. Skripsa i kirapim tingting bilong yumi olsem "maski wanpela i winim strong bilong em, tupela i ken lukautim ol yet, tasol rop i gat tripela rop i no inap bruk hariap." (Saveman 4:12, NIV). Ol sios bilong bipo i kliagut long dispela samting; ol i bungim hevi i no olsem ol bilipman i stap wanpis tasol olsem wanpela bodi i stap wanbel, na ol i beten na sanap wantaim. Yuniti bilong ol i kamap olsem testimoni bilong ol. Jisas yet i bin beten olsem "ol i ken i stap wanpela... bai ol manmeri bilong graun i ken bilip." (Jon 17:21). Taim ol famili i prea wantaim, taim ol sios i sanap wantaim, na taim ol komyuniti i mekim wok wantaim, bilip i kamap olsem muvmen na bilip i kamap ples klia.

Pasin bilong yumi long sanap i no kam long strong bilong yumi yet tasol long strong bilong heven. Pol i kirapim tingting bilong yumi long “putim olgeta klos pait bilong God, bai taim de nogut i kamap, yupela i ken sanap strong.” (Efesus 6:13, NIV). Olgeta hap bilong dispela klos pait i redim yumi long sakim pret, tupela tingting, na giaman. Devit i no bungim Goliat wantaim gutpela save tasol wantaim strong bilong spirit, na em i tokaut olsem, "Mi kam pait long yu long nem bilong Bikpela I Gat Olgeta Strong." (1 Samuel 17:45). Dispela wankain namba em i stap long ol lain husat i wokabaut long bilip. Toksave bilong yumi i mas olsem: Mi no sanap long strong bilong mi tasol long atoriti bilong Em.

Stap strong em i no wanpela samting bilong sotpela taim tasol; em i wanpela disiplin bilong laip olgeta. Pol i tok moa long dispela wankain hap tok, "Taim yu mekim olgeta samting, yu mas sanap." (Efesus 6:13b, NIV). Taim ol bikpela win na ren bilong laip i kamap na wol i wok long senis aninit long lek bilong yumi, Krais i stap yet olsem strongpela as bilong yumi - "ston we yumi sanap long en." (Matyu 7:24-25). Singaut bilong God long yumi wanwan em i isi tasol i gat bikpela mining: sanap strong long bilip, long lav, long wanbel, na long tok tru, inap long taim Em i kam bek.

Planning your Visit

Welcome to Runnymede Christian Fellowship, an Egham Church

Runnymede Christian Fellowship is a church based in Egham but serving a much larger geographical area. Those who call us home come from Egham, Virginia Water, Staines, Englefield Green, Egham Hythe, Pooley Green, Maidenhead, Heathrow, Slough, Ashford, Thorpe, Windsor, Woking and beyond.

Our church is a community of believers who gather regularly to share life and demonstrate God's love. We do this by encouraging and serving each other and the community. We believe in the power of prayer and are always happy to pray for you.

Church - What to expect

Our Sunday service is available to stream online at 11:00 a.m. You can join us on Livestream or via Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube or X (Twitter).

The Sunday Service is now held at Strodes College, Strodes College Lane in Egham open to all, so if you would like to join us, please feel free to do so. If you have any questions, please call us on 01784 637010.

We run a physical Sunday School most weeks. If you would like your children to receive a weekly Sunday School teaching pack that you can do from home, please email us at admin@e-runnymede.co.uk so that we can send you the materials.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham

Our Sunday service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically lasts about 90 minutes.

We begin each service with lively worship, featuring songs from around the world, followed by inspiring, Bible-based teaching. All our sermons are recorded and are available as a podcast after the service.

We have a monthly cycle of Sunday services, with our Communion Service being on the first Sunday of each month and an All-Age All-Nation Service on the second Sunday of each month. Our other Sunday services include Spirit-focused and teaching services.

We have consciously adopted being a blended church, that is, both online and face-to-face. You are welcome to join us on Livestream or via Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, or X (Twitter), or you can catch up and watch the recordings later.

Joining us in person

Visiting a new and unfamiliar church for the first time can be intimidating, but we want to ensure you feel welcome and enjoy your time with us. A friendly face will be waiting to meet you at the entrance and welcome you.

Doors open at 10:30 a.m. for coffee and prayer. Our Sunday Service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically runs for about 90 minutes, normally followed by tea and coffee.

Driving and Car Parking

Our Sunday Morning Service is now held at Strodes College, Strodes College Lane, Egham, TW20 9DR, which has ample parking. Click on the link for directions to RCF.

We have plenty of parking spaces right outside the building. Spaces are reserved near the entrance for anyone with mobility issues (those with a blue badge). Please let us know if you need to use one of these spaces, have any special needs, or require any assistance.

The car parking area is a public area, so please ensure that your children are under your control and that, for their safety, they do not run around in the car park.

Visiting with children?

Everyone is welcome at RCF. We encourage everyone, regardless of age, to join the service. We offer Sunday School, which begins after worship and runs concurrently with the sermon for 30 to 40 minutes, serving children aged 4 to 12. On the second Sunday of each month, we have a shorter All-Aged All Nations Service, where the children stay for the worship and the sermon.

After Church

We chat over coffee and biscuits after church on the first, third, fourth and fifth Sundays. If you want to get more acquainted, why not join us for a Sunday lunch with some of our members? The first meal is on us (Voucher provided). Please contact us and let us know. We would love to share a meal and get to know you better!
