Dorcas was a disciple, a learner of Jesus Christ, and a woman who did what she could for others. She abounded in good works. Christianity is a practical faith. But Christians are no exception to the troubles and illnesses. So she was ready to die, are you?

Christ died, but that was not the end. He ascended on high and gave gifts to men. Amoung these gifts were men who were to serve the church. Apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers to edify and build up the Lord's people in our most holy faith. There are two distict groups, apostles and prophets are foundational and unique. The others are ordinary. We do not have apostles and prophets living today.

It is amazing how many unities there are in the christian realm. May we have a willingness to say with the hymn writer, "I'm not ashamed to own my Lord or to defend his cause."

No matter how strong the opposition, it is your responsibility to stand up as a Christian and be counted. Cry aloud and spare not. You live amidst a crooked and perverse generation. You are to be witnesses for Jesus Christ.

As there is one body, so there is on e spirit, which is the life of the body. This is seen in the garden of Eden, when the lifeless lump of clay was annimated by the breath of God.

"There is one body", the glorious body of Christ, the church. There is really only one church on earth, though there are different denominations, etc. We are a local church, and there are other evangelical churches in the Isle of Man. The local church is the local expression of the body of the one body. The one holy catholic church has nothing to do with Romanism! Regeneration is needful to belong to the one body.

In 1992, the child in the mother's womb was still protected in the Isle of Man, but moves were being made to legalise the "medical termination of pregnancy", ie abortion. This message is one of several that were preached, outlining the biblical position. The questions of disabilities and rape are very emotive, but all must be seen in the light of the word of God.
