    Against Partiality | Doers of the Word 02 | James 2:1-13 | Seye Maj'

    Against Partiality | Doers of the Word 02 | James 2:1-13 | Seye Maj' In this sermon, Pastor Seye Maj emphasised that while it is good to know that God is sovereign and that all things are subservient to our salvation, the book of James calls us to live out the Word we believe. Head knowledge alone is insufficient; we must be doers of the Word. God uses His Word as the instrument of our conversion and sanctification. When the Word confronts our sin, we must not treat it as an enemy or respond in anger. Instead, we should receive it with meekness, because it is the Word that produces the fruit of righteousness in us. A religion that does not control the tongue or align our lives with God’s Word is worthless. We are called to be doers of the Word, not mere hearers. One clear evidence of genuine faith, according to James 2, is the absence of partiality. Showing favouritism or being a respecter of persons is sin. God is not partial. He welcomes both the rich and the poor into His kingdom. When we show favouritism, we contradict the gospel and deny the equal value of every person for whom Christ died. Partiality is so subtle that we often treat it as normal, yet it has no place among those who hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ. As recipients of God’s mercy and grace, we are called to speak and act as people who have been forgiven and justified. We must love our neighbour as ourselves and walk in a manner worthy of our calling. In all things, in the church and in daily life, we must remember the gospel: God shows no partiality, and neither should we.

    Raised to Serve | Miracles and Parables Series | Mark 1:29-39 | Sam Oyeyinka

    From Mark 1:29–39, we are invited into a quiet but profound moment where Jesus leaves the synagogue and enters a home, reminding us that His ministry is not confined to public spaces but extends into the ordinary rhythms of life. In healing Simon’s mother-in-law, He reveals both His identity and His mission. He lifts her up with resurrection power, and the order is intentional: she is raised first, then she serves. This becomes the defining rhythm of the gospel. We are not saved because we serve; we serve because we have been saved. God is always the first mover. Just as He delivered Israel before giving the law and called Abraham before obedience, He restores us before calling us into service. Our love, generosity, and obedience are responses to grace already given, ensuring that all glory returns to Christ and not to human effort. Yet being raised carries responsibility. A life that has truly encountered grace will express itself through service, generosity, and love for others. To remain idle after receiving grace is a contradiction. At the same time, this passage reminds us that miracles are not the destination but signposts. While Jesus heals and delivers, showing His authority over all brokenness, His priority remains salvation over temporary relief. Finally, Jesus models dependence on God through His withdrawal to pray, showing that prayer is a place of realignment and sustained purpose. This reframes suffering, not as evidence of God’s absence but as part of His formation process, where patience, character, and hope are built. The message is clear and steady: you were raised first, now live a life that serves.
