Good news unlimited in Tauranga, New Zealand

Good news unlimited in Tauranga, New Zealand

Whilst our local church group is not officially aligned with Good News Unlimited, Gracegate (Auckland) or the gospel work of Desmond Ford, we are very diligent in following their approach of keeping the gospel at the forefront of our ministry.

The free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ through faith and grace alone is certainly good news unlimited.

If you are looking for a church to attend in Tauranga which celebrates the Sabbath and where this unlimited good news for all is zealously preached and where the Bible alone is our infallible source please come along and be part of this gospel work. We are not Seventh Day Adventists and do not use the writings of Ellen G White.

We are a small home group with a good range of people from children to seniors. We love to serve in the community and are keen for more labourers to join us in the great gospel harvest.

Preachers, Bible study leaders and children’s Sabbath school teachers with this good news unlimited philosophy are greatly desired. We pray you will join us and do a great gospel work in Tauranga and New Zealand with us. Below is an excellent message about the gospel to encourage you. Please share it with others.

Views on the Book of Revelation: Futurist, Preterist, Historicist, Idealist - Which one?

  David Kidd writing from Tauranga, New Zealand

 I have been studying the different views on the book of Revelation as I have found it difficult to find a very satisfying one.

I am finding the Preterist view expressed by Kenneth Gentry very interesting and certainly more satisfying than the very popular futurist approach.

If you too have been seeking to understand the Book of Revelation you might enjoy looking at an approach that will be fresh to you.

Keep studying cautiously, as I am.

Tauranga - The bridge is out!

By David Kidd Church of God’s Love 7th day

If I saw you traveling in your car toward a bridge that was out and chose not to warn you you’d see me as uncaring or evil. So this article is to tell you the bridge is out!

Jesus’ horrible crucifixion and death should cause us to change our ways. The Bible tells us He was crucified for our sins, not His own. God graciously laid all of our sins on Him. He was our scapegoat providing us a way of escape.

Will we escape God’s coming judgment against sinners? Why would we if we continue to habitually do or approve of the sins Christ died for? The apostle Paul asks in Romans 6:1 “shall we continue in sin that grace may abound”? His answer was, “God forbid!”

There are several behaviours in this society the Bible clearly regards as sinful but which have gained widespread acceptability, including using foul or profane language, pornography, living together and/or having children before marriage, tax evasion, having idols (whether carved or not), drunkenness, looking at others lustfully, Sabbath desecration, just to name a few. Shall we continue in these or continue to approve of them and expect God to accept us? – God forbid.

The bridge to God is out because of our sins and sinful nature, but thank God, He’s provided a permanent bridge to Him – the cross of Christ. But we all must keep turning from our sins and live wholeheartedly for Christ if the death and resurrection of Christ we remember at this time of year is to be of any benefit to us at all.
