For Matthew, Jesus is the great teacher (Matt. 23:8). But teacher and teachings are inextricable bound together, Matthew tells us. Jesus stands alone as unique teacher because of his special relationship with God: he alone is Son of man and Son of God. And Jesus still teaches those who are searching for meaning and purpose in life today. 9 copies Editor: Michael Trainor A Gospel for Struggling People Mark Novalis Scripture Studies Series “Who do you say that I am?

  • THE BISHOP of LEEDS the Right Reverend Marcus Stock
    THE BISHOP OF LEEDS The Right Reverend Marcus Stock NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES TO CLERGY APPOINTMENTS To the Clergy, Religious, Seminarians and Lay Faithful of the Diocese of Leeds I wish to inform you of a significant number of changes which I shall be making to clergy appointments and to various roles and responsibilities within the Diocese of Leeds in the summer and during the months following. NEW VICAR GENERAL Firstly, I wish to express my most sincere thanks to our current Vicar Generals for the dedicated, tireless and faithful ministry which they have given to supporting me since my ordination as the Bishop of Leeds. I am very conscious too of the same loyal and devoted support which they gave to my predecessors, Bishop David Konstant and Archbishop Arthur Roche, and to the assistance they gave to Mgr John Wilson (now Auxiliary Bishop in Westminster Diocese) when he was the Diocesan Administrator in Leeds during the Sede Vacante. Mgr Kieran Heskin has served as Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia for 23 years, and Mgr Michael McQuinn has served as Vicar General for 13 years. The ministry which they have been called upon to exercise can be, without doubt, at times very difficult and not a little stressful. However, they have carried out their ministries with selflessness and great dedication and their experience, advice and support has proved invaluable to me during the first important months of my episcopal ministry. After such a long and distinguished period of service to the diocese in these important roles, I now wish to allow them to stand down from the heavy responsibilities which they have held for so long.

  • The Alpha Course—Satan's Latest Device to Deceive
    The Burning Bush—Online article archive The Alpha Course -- Satan's latest device to deceive believers The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster opposes this evil thing as a counterfeit and a fraud that will only undermine the true gospel of Christ and work havoc amongst those who submit to its instruction. On this page we give some informa- tion on The Alpha Course. We call on true believers to resist its inroads and, where it is welcomed, to withdraw from such a church in obedience to Christ's call to separate from that which is of the devil. And have no fellowship with the un- fruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them , Ephe- sians 5:11. Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them , Romans 16:17. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed , 2 John 1:10. The Editor. The Alpha Course contains nothing new. However, that does not make it ortho- dox. It simply contains no new lie or new presentation of error. It is, at best, a rehash of the old charismatic fables and fancies mixed in with new ageism and plain old-fashioned baloney! The Alpha Course must have made a fortune for its chief proponents, as well as making them household names in some quarters. It is promoted in a slick, professional manner which deceives many into thinking that such is the method of God.
