Due to Coronavirus the decision was taken to live-stream services online.

Below is the recording of the sermon for this week. As many of us face changes to our normal routines, our own Lennox Moore speaks of the differing ways in which we can choose to respond in these troubling and uncertain times.

Kindness and Mercy – Luke 10:25-37 & John 8:1-11 – Lennox Moore – 29th March 2020

• Luke 10:25-37; John 8:1-11

  The Parable of the Good Samaritan
  25  And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

  26  He said to him, “What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?”

  27  So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’ ”

  28  And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.”

  29  But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

  30  Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.’ 36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”

  37 And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.”

  Jesus the Light of the World
  1 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

  2 Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. 3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, 4 they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?” 6 This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.

  7 So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” 8 And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?”

  11 She said, “No one, Lord.”

  And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.”
