Northampton church of Christ

Northampton church of Christ Acts 4:12 "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved"

The congregation had its beginnings in Northampton, England in 1980.The Christian Fellowship Centre was designed and built by local Christians and opened for worship in June 1984. The Centre is used by Christians who meet regularly for worship and Bible study. We really want to be nothing more and nothing less than Christians. It is evident that much of the confusion in the religious world stems f

rom the acceptance of human creeds and authorities. We want to lay these aside, and we plead for the unity of all believers on the basis of the scriptures alone.

This morning, Brandon preached from Hebrews 2:1–3 with the title “Drifting.”

Using the picture of a boat on a river, we were reminded how easily we can drift if we are not careful. The water may seem calm at first, but before long we can be carried into danger. As Christians, our rudder is the Word of God, guiding us and keeping us on course.

Brandon challenged us to stay vigilant because it is much easier to change direction at the start than when we are being battered by the waves. Drifting often begins quietly: less desire for Bible study, reduced prayer, less eagerness to be with God’s people and a fading concern for the gospel.

The answer is to start rowing again: keep studying, keep praying, keep growing, keep good company and help others stay on course too.

We must never think it cannot happen to us. The Christian life is a lifelong journey of faith, diligence and staying close to God.

Our speaker today pointed out the various ways division is caused. Be it personal, in the community online or even among nations. However, from Ephesians 4:1-3 we learn that in Jesus Christ unity can be found. It is up to us not to cause division with our petty disagreements. We should embrace each other with the love Jesus taught us, allow each other to grow and ensure the Word of God is our guide. Our opinions are as nothing compared to what we know to be true.

We also took time to celebrate a wonderful week if our Holiday Bible Club. Going Bananas for God.

This morning Greg preached from Luke 15:13-20 with the title “Where’s the search party?”

Using the parable of the prodigal son, Greg talked about the pain parents can feel when children or loved ones wander far from God. The father did not stop his son leaving or send a search party after him, not because he did not care, but because real repentance could not be forced.

The son had to come to himself. Through hunger, loneliness and brokenness, he finally remembered the blessings of home and returned with a humble heart. His journey reminds us that selfish choices have consequences, but also that God’s love, patience and forgiveness are always waiting for the repentant heart.

For Christian families facing spiritual turmoil, the lesson was clear: keep praying, keep loving and keep hoping. Sometimes we must trust God’s work in ways that are difficult, but His desire is lasting change, restoration and life.

Mark Hill preached from Colossians 3:12–17 this morning with the title “Be Compassionate, Not Condescending.”

We were reminded that those who live without Christ are often placing their trust in things that can never truly satisfy, whether success, relationships, systems, theories, idols, or false gods. When those things fail, where can they turn for peace, comfort, forgiveness and hope?

As Christians, we must not look down on people but have compassion. We too were once blind, searching in the wrong places but through Christ we have found the only way to God. Life still brings suffering but in Him we find strength, comfort and the hope that death is not a wall but a doorway.

The good news is for everyone. Let us be compassionate, faithful and bold in pointing people to Jesus, the one true God whose message endures.

This morning, Brandon preached from 1 Peter 3:13–22 with the title “Where’s the Proof?”. He challenged us to think about the reason for our faith.

We were reminded that creation points to God, Scripture confirms His existence and the Bible stands firm through its accuracy in science, history and prophecy. Brandon also looked at evidence for Jesus, His resurrection and the powerful change in the apostles, who went from fear to bold faith because they knew He had risen.

As Hebrews 11:1 reminds us, faith is not blind. It is grounded in the assurance of what God has revealed.
