The Advent story begins here, not with shepherds and angels, but with the recognition that our world is broken, our worship tainted, and our hearts are in need of renewal. Godʼs holiness demands both judgment and mercy. He will not overlook sin, but neither will he abandon sinners. Only when we see our sin clearly can we grasp the wonder of salvation.

Recalling the big picture message from the first week, we are ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit to witness to the Lord Jesus to the ends of the earth.
In today's message from Acts 4:32-5:11, we see how the early church shared their possessions. It was not communism where everthing you own belongs to the state, rather it was "what is mine is yours".
However, whereever this is good, there is the opportunity for evil and deception. We see this is the behaviour of Ananias and his wife Sapphira. This is a difficult passage, and Pastor Jonathan explains this to us with what the real sin of Ananias and Sapphira was.
