Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, \u2018The Lord needs them\u2019, and he will send them at once.\u201d 4 This took place to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet, saying,\r\n\r\n5 \u201cSay to the daughter of Zion,\r\n\u2018Behold, your king is coming to you,\r\n humble, and mounted on a donkey,\r\n and[a] on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.\u2019\u201d\r\n\r\n6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them. 8 Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, \u201cHosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!\u201d 10 And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, \u201cWho is this?\u201d 11 And the crowds said, \u201cThis is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.\u201d"", "image":""},{"title":""Rev Duncan Murchison" - Acts 1 v 1 to 11</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f26e448f54f.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"/sermons/acts-1-v-1-to-11", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":""Acts 1 English Standard Version Anglicised\r\nThe Promise of the Holy Spirit\r\n1 In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. 3 He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.\r\n\r\n4 And while staying[a] with them he ordered them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, \u201cyou heard from me; 5 for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit not many days from now.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe Ascension\r\n6 So when they had come together, they asked him, \u201cLord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?\u201d 7 He said to them, \u201cIt is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.\u201d 9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. 10 And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, 11 and said, \u201cMen of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven?

So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honour him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.\r\n\r\n24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonouring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever! Amen.\r\n\r\n26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonourable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.\r\n\r\n28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know God's decree that those who practise such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practise them."", "image":""},{"title":""Rev John Fairful" - 1 Timothy 1</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f423c26a4c4.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"/sermons/1-timothy-1", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":""1 Timothy 1, English Standard Version Anglicised\r\n\r\nGreetings\r\n1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Saviour and of Christ Jesus our hope,\r\n\r\n2 To Timothy, my true child in the faith:\r\n\r\nGrace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.\r\n\r\nWarning Against False Teachers\r\n3 As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine, 4 nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculations rather than the stewardship[a] from God that is by faith. 5 The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6 Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion, 7 desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.\r\n\r\n8 Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9 understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, 10 the sexually immoral, men who practise homosexuality, enslavers,[b] liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound[c] doctrine, 11 in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.\r\n\r\nChrist Jesus Came to Save Sinners\r\n12 I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service, 13 though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent. But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief, 14 and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. 15 The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. 16 But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. 17 To the King of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.[d] Amen.\r\n\r\n18 This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, 19 holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting this, some have made shipwreck of their faith, 20 among whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme."", "image":""},{"title":""Allan Thomson" - 10 Commandments 4</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f442150f463.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":"""", "image":""},{"title":""Allan Thomson" - 10 Commandments 3</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f22c3634e75.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":"""", "image":""},{"title":""Allan Thomson" - 10 Commandments 2</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f22b1f6a177.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":"""", "image":""},{"title":""Allan Thomson" - 10 Commandments 1</a>", "file":"https://files.cdn-files-a.com/uploads/10367996/normal_67f229821dcc6.mp3", "howl":null, "pageUrl":"", "cartUrl":"", "more_info":"""", "image":""}]}
