Title: Luke 15 - Three Pictures of God's Saving Grace Speaker: Rev. Peter McIntyre Date: 10 May 2026 Bible: Luke 15
Title: ENCOUNTER - Eight Places Where People Met Christ Speaker: Rev. Peter McIntyre Date: 20 March 2026 Bible: Luke 24:28-32 Preached at the opening of the "Enocunter" young people's facility at Clogher Valley FPC, this sermon centres on the transformative power of encountering Christ, presenting eight pivotal moments in Scripture where individuals met Jesus—by the sea, in the office, at a well, at a wedding, in grief, at the cross, in the empty tomb, and on the mountaintop—each symbolising a stage in the spiritual journey. These encounters reveal that Christ is present in everyday life, calling people to purpose, repentance, joy, comfort, and mission, with the ultimate call to follow Him and share His gospel. The message emphasises that true fulfillment comes not from worldly success or moral performance, but from a personal, life-changing relationship with Christ, who offers mercy, resurrection hope, and eternal life. Through vivid biblical examples, the preacher underscores that every believer is invited into a living encounter with God, not as a one-time event but as a continual pilgrimage of faith, surrender, and service. The tone is both pastoral and urgent, calling young people and all believers to examine their priorities, embrace Christ's presence, and answer His call to be His witnesses in a world in need of hope.
Title: Five Key Christian Truths Speaker: Rev. Peter McIntyre Series: FPC 75th Anniversary Date: 15 March 2026 Bible: Luke 1:1 The sermon presents a foundational reflection on five essential Christian truths—sin, Scripture, the Trinity, Christ, and the atonement—framed as the unshakable pillars of the faith, especially relevant in light of the church's 75th anniversary and its historical roots in the 1927 Davy Heresy Trial. It emphasises that sin is humanity's universal condition, breaking all barriers and necessitating divine intervention, while affirming the Bible as God's infallible, authoritative Word, not subject to human reason or experience. The Trinity is upheld as the core of Christian orthodoxy, revealing God as three persons in one essence, essential to proper worship and understanding of salvation. Christ is presented as the eternal Son who became flesh to reveal God, die as the perfect sacrifice, and rise in victory, offering hope amid global turmoil. Central to this is the atonement, where Christ bore the sins of humanity, making believers righteous through His substitutionary death, grounded in Scripture and secured by the triune God's eternal plan. The tone is pastoral, convicting, and deeply reverent, underscoring that these truths are not mere doctrines but the very foundation of gospel assurance and mission.
What Do You Do When You Don't Understand The Bible? | Christ For YouText: Luke 2:41–52 | Epiphany 1Some parts of the Bible make immediate sense. Others won't leave you alone because you can't make sense of them. And life does the same thing: you pray, you try to do what's right, and you still end up asking, “What is God doing?”In Luke 2, even Mary and Joseph don't understand Jesus. But Mary doesn't quit. She treasures His words. This sermon draws the line between honest confusion that wants to be taught and stubborn rejection that refuses to listen. It also exposes the popular lie: “Jesus loves me, so it doesn't matter what the Bible says.” Jesus' love is not permission to ignore Jesus' Word. It's the reason you keep listening.If you feel stuck, if Scripture confuses you, if you don't understand why your life is going the way it is, this sermon is for you. You may not understand all things, but Jesus does. He knows your weakness and your sin better than you do. He kept the Law for you, shed His blood for you, and He treasures you in His heart. So you treasure His Word and cling to His promise that even what you can't explain, He will still work for your good.Subscribe & Share:Apple Podcasts: Christ For YouSpotify: Christ For YouPortuguês: Cristo Para VocêWebsite: ZionWG.org

“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Why are You so far from helping Me, And from the words of My groaning? O My God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not hear; And in the night season, and am not silent. But You are holy, Enthroned in the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in You; They trusted, and You delivered them. They cried to You, and were delivered; They trusted in You, and were not ashamed. There is no chapter in the whole Bible that gives us a picture of the suffering of the Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross like Psalm 22. I don't think we can ever in our finite minds fully comprehend and understand the suffering that Christ endured while on the Cross. This chapter helps us to get a glimpse of the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual agony of Christ during the six hours that He hung on the cross. And this chapter was written by King David one-thousand years before Christ was even born. David is the author, but we have a difficult time finding an occasion in his life that would call forth this kind of psalm. According to the record, the Lord never deserted him in his hour of need but always provided friends to help him and deliverance from his enemies. The intense suffering described here isn't that of a sick man in bed or a soldier in battle. It's the description of a criminal being executed! Numerous quotations from the psalm in the four Gospels, as well as Hebrews 2:10-12, indicate that this is a Messianic psalm. We may not know how this psalm related to the author's personal experience, but we do know that David was a prophet (Acts 2:30), and in this psalm he wrote about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The first part (vv. 1-21) focuses on prayer and suffering and takes us to the cross, while the second part (vv. 22-31) announces the resurrection and expresses praise to the glory of God. An understanding of Messiah's suffering and glory is basic to grasping the message of the Bible (Luke 24:25-27; 1 Peter 1:11). The opening words of the psalm immediately transport us to Calvary, for Jesus quoted them at the close of a three-hour period of darkness (vv. 1-2; Matt. 27:45-46; Mark 15:34). "I am not alone," Jesus had told His disciples, "because the Father is with me" (John 16:32), and yet He cried out that the Lord had forsaken Him. When He spoke these words, He had been engaged in a mysterious transaction with the Father, dying for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2; 4:14). On the cross, Jesus was "made sin for us who knew no sin" (2 Cor. 5:21) and made "a curse" (Gal. 3:13) for us. In some inexplicable way He experienced what condemned lost sinners experience "away from the presence of the Lord" (2 Thess. 1:9; Matthew 25:41). I personally believe, that in a way that only God really knows, Jesus suffered an eternity in hell, separated from God during those last three hours of darkness from noon to 3pm on the Cross. This cry to “My God” was both in the “daytime and in the night season”. Remember Jesus was crucified around 9am in the morning when the sun was brightly shining. Then at noon, the Gospel of Matthew records: “Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" (Matthew 27:45-46). My friend, have you ever trusted Jesus to be your Lord and Savior? If not, why not right now take the time to invite Him into your heart and life! God bless!
Episode #179 Jesus' Gospel story is told, by God's design, from 4 different perspectives. Matthew tells if a Lion of Judah— a Jewish perspective. Mark emphasizes Jesus as the ‘sacrifice' for sin. John reveals Jesus from a ‘heavenly view (which is shying is called the ‘Eagle Gospel'. Then there is Luke! The only non-Jewish author in the Bible — Luke, the doctor and historian— writes of Jesus from a ‘human perspective'. His life, his family, his friends. Luke is written to show Jesus came to die for ALL MANKIND.
