Adam Road Presbyterian Church Podcast

The Bible reminds us that the world we are living in has been subjected to futility, decay and death.  Where can we turn to when we are confronted with tribulations and sufferings in this world?  圣经告诉我们，所有受造之物都被服在虚空之下。面对今世所看见的灾难及苦楚，我们当如何回应呢?

Forgetfulness of God often leads to ungratefulness in life. What makes us forget God and His promises? Often, it is our idolatrous unbelieving hearts. Idolatry makes us insecure and messed up people to live with. Pastor Chris preaches from Deuteronomy 1.

The entry of Jesus Christ, God incarnate, into history means that 'in these last days God has spoken to us by his Son' (Hebrews 1.2) In doing so Jesus not only revealed God's truth but also authenticated Scripture as God's revealed truth. So there is objective truth in our world, God's world. There is objective right and wrong. This has implications for all areas of life including divorce and homosexuality. Pastor John Ting preaches the 3rd message of a series in Gospel in Culture.

Facing temptations, which can be many, that arise from the passions of this mortal bodies, what warnings can we learn from the history of Israel and precious exhortation from the apostle Paul, that may encourage us to persevere in the LORD? 面对来自这肉体情欲的试探，我们从以色列民历史中得到怎样的警戒？使徒保罗的勉励又如何能够勉励，督责我们在这信心道路坚持到底呢？

What does it mean to testify to the work of the LORD? we find out from the man born blind as he encounter Jesus and the healing Jesus has brought in his life. 怎样才是为主耶稣作见证？让我们向一个得耶稣医治的瞎眼人学习.

How do we live as God’s people in an increasingly unholy world? How do we have faith in an unchanging God and in an unchanging gospel of salvation in a everchanging world that hates Him? Pastor Chris Chia preaches from 2 Timothy 3:1-5; 4:1-5 in this second of a series of message on Gospel in Culture.

One thing our God and Master required of us in service is faithfulness. We are to be faithful in our service in small and big things God entrusts unto us. 在侍奉神，我们的主时，他愿意看见的是我们在所有的侍奉上忠心，成为神百般恩赐的好管家。

How should we respond to virtuality? Is virtuality a help or hindrance? Listen to this topical series on gospel in culture by Pastor Chris Chia.

Pastor John Ting preaches from John 20-21 on the different resurrection appearances of Jesus and the different responses to them. What ought to be our response to Jesus' resurrection?

John the gospelwriter shows us that Jesus' crowing as king is unstoppable despite opposition from men. If Jesus is the unstoppable king, do we resist His rule in our lives? Pastor Adrin Munoz preaches from John 19:16b-42.

我们往往会使用奖励和处罚的方法来鼓励正确的行为。那么，申明记28：1-68所列出的福与咒诅是否是遵行诫命的动力呢？今天的讲道让我们认识到遵行诫命的主要障碍和遵行诫命最终的动力。Often times, we use either enticement or threat of punishment in order to encourage good behavior.  Deuteronomy 28:1-68 lists down both God’s blessings and curses.  Is this the motivation of obeying God’s word?  In the sermon, we will understand the obstacles to obeying God’s word and ultimately the motivation of keeping them.

In Deuteronomy 9-10, Moses reminded the Israelites that it is not because of their righteousness that they can enter to possess the land.  As such, they are to trust and obey the LORD.  In the same way, we have been saved by grace through faith.  It is out of God’s great mercy and love that we grow in our trust and obedience to the LORD. (摩西在申命记9-10章告诉以色列民，进入应许地是神的信实而非他们的义，所以当信靠顺服神。同样的，我们今天成为神子民，是本乎恩也因着信，所以，我们当不断的认识神的爱，成为我们信靠服侍神的动力.)

Rev Dr Simon Vibert preaches from John 18:28-19:16. Who was responsible for Jesus's death?

以色列民即将进入神的应许地。40年在旷野的生活，以色列民当记得什么功课？在经历试炼时，我们是否也学习同样功课？ What must the Israelites not forget as they enter into the promised land?  What will they learn as they come to an end of their 40 years in the wilderness?  Are these the same lessons we learn as we go through trials in our own life?

Pastor Chris Chia preaches from John 17. The priority Jesus places on prayer should make us not get used to a prayerless life.

What kind of hatred will believers face? How must they face such hatred? Pastor Chris Chia preaches from John 16:17-33.

耶和华是那位掌管宇宙万有的真神。但他却专爱以色列民。摩西劝勉以色列民要全心，全意，全力来爱这位专爱他们的神. The God of Israel is not a tribal god.  He is the LORD of all the nations.  Yet He has chosen the nation of Israel because of His love. Moses exhorts the Israelites to love the LORD who rules and sovereignly loves them.

Jesus calls us to remain in Him even as we have come to in communion with the Triune God through Him. We remain in Jesus by remaining in His words and his love. Understanding this radically changes the way we live our lives and our expectations of what to expect from this world. Pastor Edmund Fong preaches from John 15.

Pastor Adrin Munoz preaches the Saturday sermon from John 15. Just what does it mean to belong to Jesus?

神赐给我们十诫，目的不是来束缚我们。相反的，唯有谨守十诫，我们才能够活出一个丰盛的人生，一个在主耶稣基督里面的新生命。讲员：少雄传道，翻译：施展长老. The Ten Commandments are not given by God to break our backs. They are given for us to be gladly obeyed as we live the abundant life found only Jesus. Message by Pastor Adrin Munoz. Translation by Elder Stanley Sy
