The word millennium literally means 1000 years. When we speak of Premillennialism, Amillennialism, and Postmillennialism, we speak of the millennium in connection with the kingdom of Christ and His return. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/10302213802647 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 30 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

Perhaps that is the case with some of you. Today we are going to look at Covenant Theology. And then at how it impacts the growth of the church to believe it. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/102222223408097 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 23 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

It is important because so many people, even church leaders, do not accept what the Bible teaches about sin and Satan. Many, for example, deny that Satan is a personal agent; and many look at sin as something other than a transgression of God's law for which we are all culpable. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/10162212384879 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 16 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - Suggested Topics: Theology https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1092214944267 The Bible actually has a lot to say about angels, and it is a subject that we can sometimes neglect in our Presbyterian and Reformed Churches. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1092214944267 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 09 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:57:54 no Rev. John Shearouse - Suggested Topics: Theology https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/10222041107022 There is one God, and the Spirit is one of the three persons who is called God. He is distinct from the Father and the Son. He is not an impersonal force, but a person who loves, who can be grieved, who is moral, who interacts and proceeds from the Father and the Son. If you boil it all down, the Holy Spirit is the One who enables us to live a godly life. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/10222041107022 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 02 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - Suggested Topics: Theology https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/917222023187491 Even though I preach on the Trinity whenever I preach through the Catechism or the Apostles' Creed, I have had requests both times I have taken suggested topics. I am happy to preach on this because it is a difficult subject that people often get wrong. The doctrine, however, is really quite easy to demonstrate from the Scripture. You only need to believe three plain teachings of the Bible. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/917222023187491 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 18 Sep 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - Suggested Topics: Theology https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/91022221758984 This question is answered in 2 Peter 1:21 with these words: "Holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." Before we look at these two things in more detail, you might say to me, "How do you know that Peter is talking about the Bible when He says that holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit?" We know this from the context: "knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/91022221758984 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 11 Sep 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.
