Ol manmeri bilong Krismas De 

Long planti Kristen, Krismas i save kamap wanpela taim long wanpela yia wantaim ol smel we ol i save long en, ol singsing we ol i save yusim gut na wanpela gutpela smel we i save bagarapim laip bilong ol manmeri. Tasol gutnius i tok strong long wanpela samting we i bikpela moa. Long man i bihainim Jisas, olgeta de em i Krismas De. Presen i kamap pinis, wanpela taim tasol, na em i wok long givim long ol manmeri husat i laik kisim. Krais i kam pinis, Krais i stap, na Krais i singautim yet ol bel i kam long Em yet.

As bilong Krismas i no gat tingting tasol em i kisim bek. God i bin kam insait long histori bilong ol manmeri long Jisas Krais, i no long lukluk long ol manmeri longwe tasol long kisim bek ol long insait. Jon i tokaut olsem, "Tok i kamap man na i stap namel long yumi, na yumi lukim glori bilong em" (Jon 1:14). Dispela i no God i kam lukim mipela. Dispela em i God i kam long stap. Manger i soim i go het long diwai kros, na diwai kros i opim dua bilong nupela laip. Krismas em i stat bilong bikpela wok bilong kisim bek ol manmeri we wol i bin save long en.
Dispela em i as na Krismas i no inap stap long wanpela sisen tasol. Sapos Jisas em i Bikpela, orait Em i Bikpela long wanpela Mande we i gat ren wankain olsem long Krismas moning. Kristen laip i no bilong painim ol samting bilong spirit tasol em i bilong givim yu yet long wanpela Sevia i stap laip long olgeta de. Pol i tok, "Tenkyu long God long bikpela presen bilong em" (2 Korin 9:15). Wanpela presen we i bikpela olsem em i no inap long kisim, stretim, o senisim. Yumi ken kisim tasol wantaim pasin daun na tenkyu.

Long olgeta moning yumi kirap na yumi laikim pinis, na marimari i bihainim yumi pinis. Dispela tok tru i senisim olgeta samting. Mipela i no wok long kisim ol manmeri. Mipela i wok long en. Mipela i no save bihainim tok bilong kisim salvesen. Mipela i bihainim tok bikos salvesen i bin kamap nating. "Long wanem, em i marimari bilong God na kisim bek yupela long rot bilong bilip, na dispela i no kam long yupela yet, em i presen bilong God" (Efesus 2:8). Krismas bilip em i no wok bilong lotu we ol i bilasim olsem pasin bilong lotu. Em i bekim bilong bikpela marimari.

Lukim olgeta de olsem Krismas De i senisim tingting bilong yumi long wol. Jisas em i Emmanuel, "God i stap wantaim yumi" (Matyu 1:23), i no long ol sios sevis tasol, tasol long ol haus kuk, ol klasrum, ol opis na ol wod bilong haus sik. I no gat wanpela ples we Em bai no inap go long en na i no gat wanpela laip Em bai no inap go insait long en. Gutpela nius em i no olsem yumi inap long kamap long God, tasol God i bin kamap long yumi. Na Em i save mekim yet.
Dispela tok tru i gat bikpela wok tu. Krismas i kirapim tingting bilong yumi olsem God i save givim pastaim, tasol em i kirapim tingting bilong yumi tu olsem yumi mas bekim. Jon 3:16 i no tok bilong mekim isi bel tasol; em i wok long bungim hevi. "God i laikim tumas ol manmeri bilong graun, olsem na em i givim dispela wanpela Pikinini tasol bilong en, bai olgeta manmeri i bilip long em ol i no ken i dai, ol i ken kisim laip oltaim oltaim." Husat i bilip, em i mas kisim presen. Dua i op, tasol yumi mas wokabaut i go insait long en.

I gat bikpela amamas long hia tu. Planti manmeri i save karim pen hait, moa yet taim laip i pilim amamas tasol. Gutnius i no daunim pen na hevi. Em i kisim bek. Aisaia i tok long Jisas olsem "wanpela man i save karim pen na hevi" (Aisaia 53:3). God i no kisim bek yumi longwe. Em i go insait long bruk bilong yumi. Bikos Jisas i kam, nogat aiwara i lus nating, na nogat pen i no kamap ples klia.

Laip olsem olgeta de em i Krismas De i min olsem stap wekap long marimari na strongpela bilip. Em i min olsem yu mas beten wantaim tingting, laikim tru ol narapela, na kolim nem bilong Jisas na yu no sem. Pol i strongim yumi long "amamas oltaim, prea oltaim, na tenkyu long olgeta samting" (1 Tesalonaika 5:16 i go inap 18). Dispela i no giaman tingting. Em i bilip long kirap bek.
Olsem na taim tumora i kamap na i no gat ol 'carol' o 'candle', tingim dispela. Presen i stap yet. Krais i singaut yet. Salvesen i stap yet. Grace em i inap yet. Olgeta nupela de em i wanpela invitesen long kisim gen, na ating long namba wan taim, laip we Jisas i givim.

Dispela em i presen we i save givim oltaim. I no wanpela tingting, i no wanpela pasin tumbuna, tasol em i wanpela Sevia i stap laip. Long Kristen, olgeta de em i Krismas De tru. Na long husat manmeri i wok long painim yet, tude em i de we ol i opim presen.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham


 Prophetic word for students -

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.

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!
