"Spirit yupela i kisim em i no inap mekim yupela i kamap wokboi nating, na bai yupela i pret gen, nogat, Spirit yupela i kisim em i mekim yupela i kamap pikinini bilong em. Na long em yumi inap singaut, 'Aba, Papa.'" Rom 8:15 (NIV)
I no gat planti tok tru we i save mekim yumi i kamap fri moa long luksave olsem yumi no moa ol pikinini i no gat papamama, tasol yumi ol pikinini man na pikinini meri bilong God i stap laip. Tasol planti bilipmanmeri, maski ol i kisim bek long marimari, ol i stap yet wantaim wanpela "spirit i no gat papamama." Ol i bilip long Jisas, ol i ken wok strong long wok autim tok, tasol insait tru long bel bilong ol, ol i stap olsem ol i stap wanpis, ol i mas wok hat, resis, na holimpas liklik samting ol i pilim olsem ol i gat. Spirit bilong pikinini i no gat papamama i save givim kaikai long tingting bilong sot. Em i save kamapim tingting nogut, pret, na lukautim yu yet. Tasol Spirit bilong Krais i singautim yumi long narapela kain samting: pasin bilong pikinini man na pasin bilong givim samting.

Spirit bilong pikinini i no gat papamama i no save singaut strong oltaim. Planti taim em i save tok isi. Em i tok olsem, "Nogat wanpela man bai kam long helpim yu - mobeta yu lukautim samting bilong yu." O, "Yu mas kisim pasin bilong laikim na kisim yu." O, "Bai i no inap."

Dispela tingting i no nupela. Bikpela brata insait long tok piksa bilong pikinini man i lus (Luk 15:25-32) em i wanpela gutpela eksampel. Maski em i pikinini man, em i wok olsem wanpela wokman. Em i no bin kisim gut bel bilong papa. Bel nogut na jeles bilong em i kamap ples klia taim ol i soim marimari long liklik brata bilong em. Papa i tok wanem long em? "Pikinini bilong mi, yu stap wantaim mi oltaim, na olgeta samting bilong mi em bilong yu." Tasol bikpela pikinini man i bin stap olsem em i wanpela ausait man - wanpela pikinini i no gat papamama.

Yumi mas bungim dispela tok tru: em inap long stap insait long haus bilong Papa na yu no save yet long bel bilong Papa.

Pol i raitim long Rom 8 olsem yumi no kisim spirit bilong wok sleiv na pundaun gen long pret, tasol Spirit bilong adoptim yumi. Adopsen em i wanpela strongpela toktok. Em i no wanpela namba tu-reit status. Long lo bilong Rom, ol adoptim pikinini man i gat ful raits long lo na ol i no inap tok nogat long ol. Paul i no toktok tasol long wanpela tingting bilong bel - em i toktok long senis bilong 'status'. Mipela i save go insait long ausait. Stat long ol pikinini i no gat papamama i go long ol lain i kisim ol samting bilong ol.
Na wanem samting i kamap long dispela adopsen? Pasin bilong pas gut wantaim. Mipela i singaut olsem, “Aba, Papa.” I no wantaim pret, tasol wantaim strongpela tingting. I no wantaim wari, tasol wantaim lav.

Yu lukim, ol 'heirs' i no save bungim planti samting - ol i save trastim. Ol pikinini man i no save resis - ol i save malolo. Ol pikinini meri i no save wok hat long kisim tok orait - ol i save kisim laip long dispela. Na ol dispela kain manmeri i stap fri long givim samting.

Tingting bilong stap rabis i no long sot long mani. Em i wanpela spiritual kondisen - wanpela tingting we i tok, "I no gat inap." Em i save holim ol maniman na ol rabisman wantaim. Em inap kamap olsem pasin bilong les, pret long givim samting, o sevim mani. Na maski tingting i gat ples bilong en, spirit bilong stap rabis em i long wok kalabus, i no wok bos.

Tasol Jisas i kam bilong bringim planti samting, i no long ol samting bilong skin, tasol long laip (Jon 10:10). Taim yumi bilip olsem Papa bilong yumi i papa bilong ol bulmakau long wan tausen maunten (Song 50:10), yumi stat long stap narapela kain. Mipela i save holim ol samting isi moa. Mipela i save givim moa fri. Mipela i blesim nating na mipela i no skelim pe bilong en. Em i samting bilong givim samting - em i no pasin bilong givim samting long presa o rong, tasol long fridom na bilip.

Hau bai yumi lusim tingting bilong ol pikinini i no gat papamama na i go long pasin bilong givim samting?

Kisim Adopsen Bilong Yu – Dispela em i stat bilong en. Yu no nid long kisim ples bilong yu. Yu sindaun pinis wantaim Krais (Efesus 2:6). Tingim gut dispela. Larim em i go daun tru.

Prektisim Tenkyu – Tenkyu i save lainim bel long lukim ol samting God i givim. Em i senisim tingting long sot i go long planti samting.

Givim long tingting – Pasin bilong givim samting i no kamap nating tasol, em i wanpela stratejik. Givim samting long sios bilong yu, blesim ol lain i sot, putim mani long ol narapela. Noken wetim ol filings; mekim wok wantaim bilip.

Tok Tru Long Tok Giaman – Salensim tingting bilong ol pikinini i no gat papamama. Taim pret i tok isi olsem, "Yu bai pinis," tokaut olsem, "God bilong mi bai givim olgeta samting mi nidim" (Filipi 4:19).

Embrasim Komyuniti – Ol pikinini i no gat papamama i stap wanpis. Ol heirs i bilong.

Painim gutpela, gutpela rilesensip we i strongim trupela aidentiti bilong yu.
Noken amamas long stap olsem wanpela pikinini i no gat papamama long sait bilong spirit taim Papa bilong yu i redim ples long tebol bilong Em. Yu no kisim bek long wanpela samting tasol - yu kisim bek long wanpela samting: long kamap pikinini man, long kisim ol samting bilong papamama, long stap klostu, na long givim samting. Wol i wetim ol pikinini man na pikinini meri bilong God long kirap bek, na ol i stap gut long husat ol i stap, na ol i pulap long lav bilong Papa.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham


welcome 2

Our Sunday service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically lasts about 90 minutes.

We start each service with lively worship with songs from around the world, followed by inspired Bible-based teaching. All our sermons are recorded and are available as a podcast after the service.

We have a monthly cycle of Sunday services, with our Communion Service being on the first Sunday of each month and an All-Age All-Nation Service on the second Sunday of each month. Our other Sunday services include Spirit-focused and teaching services.

We have consciously adopted being a blended church that is both for those online and face-to-face. You are welcome to join us on Livestream or via Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube, or X (Twitter), or you can catch up and watch the recordings later.
 

Joining us in person

Visiting with children?

Everyone is welcome at RCF. We encourage everyone, young and old, to join the service. We have Sunday School, which starts after worship and runs during the sermon for 30 to 40 minutes for children aged 4 to 12. On the second Sunday of each month, we have a shorter All-Aged All Nations Service, where the children stay for the worship and the sermon.

We chat over coffee and biscuits after church on the first, third and fourth Sundays. If you want to get more acquainted, why not join us for a Sunday lunch with some of our members? The meal is on us! Please contact us and let us know. We would love to share a meal and get to know you better!
