The Holy Spirit has a message that he’s telling the world—and it’s all about the need for everyone to personally know Jesus.
On the night before he died, Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will “convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment.” (John 16:8)
This is the clear message of the Spirit, and his word has three main points.
Firstly, The Spirit tells the world that it has a broken relationship with God, which is the ‘sin’ of refusing to believe in Jesus.
Secondly, The Spirit tells the world that it can become reconciled with God, because Jesus died and rose and then returned to be with his heavenly Father.
Thirdly, The Spirit tells the world that it needs to act upon this offer of forgiveness, because judgement is coming soon.
The work of the Holy Spirit is to bring a message of sin, righteousness and judgement to the world—and he uses the followers of Jesus to share it with the world.
Easter is such a wonderful occasion to share the message of the Holy Spirit with a world that needs to know the reconciliation of Jesus before it’s too late.
Because at Easter, we learn about why the world needs Jesus, what Jesus did on the cross, and why we need to ask for forgiveness with Jesus before he comes back soon.
This Easter we’re going to hear about the Spirit of fulfilment on Good Friday (from John 19:28-37) then on Easter Sunday we’ll hear about the Spirit of Peace (from John 20:19-23).
There’s no better time to come to Jesus than Easter.
Will you join us for church this Easter?

This Sunday we continue our series by Jodie called The Spirit of Christ from John chapters 13 to 16 as we experience the extraordinary night before his death as he gathers with his disciples. We’re looking this weekend at John 16:12-31 as we see the ‘Spirit of Hope’.
Here are the questions that Jodie plans to answer during our church services:
1 How high should we value truth as a conviction? 2 If God has predestined people, why should we share the gospel? 3 Are we in the West unprepared for persecution because we’ve enjoyed the peace of living in a Christian society?
If you’d like to add a question to the list, there’s still time… send and email or message and we’ll get Jodie to answer it this weekend.
Every day (except Sundays) we meet at 7am online for an online half-hour morning prayer time at zoom.jamberooanglican.com and you’re very welcome to join us!
After church we’ll have brunch in the morning and dinner in the evening, so there’s plenty of time to chat and chew, together!
See you on Sunday, God willing!

In my report to Tuesday night’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), I drew attention to the important place of children’s and youth ministry in the life of our church.
Our ministry to youth and children is not our most important ministry, but I believe it’s our most strategic ministry at this time.
Around four out of five people become Christians before they become adults, which shows us that younger people are more open to considering the big things about life, including the need to follow their creator Jesus as king.
Plus, when people decide to follow Jesus when they’re younger, it means they’re better-placed to head down the pathway of Bible college and word ministry.
So, our church has decided to invest deeply in ministry to kids and youth by employing a part-time youth minister, and more recently, a part-time children’s minister.
Already, we’ve seen the fruit of this strategy, as young people are not only encouraged to grow in their own knowledge and love of God, but they’re also emboldened to naturally invite friends from school to join them at church with their household.
Plus, when a family visits us for the first time, they will know that our church is a place that focuses on growing their kids and youth, providing a great place for them to choose as their spiritual home.
We pray that our kids and youth ministry will keep growing so that more young people and their households might know how to follow Jesus and why it matters.
Pray for Brad, Rachel, and all our youth and children’s leaders, as they lovingly bring the word of God to the young people in our church and in our world.
There’s nothing more strategic for the growth of God’s kingdom!
