Brisbane City Church Wayne Alcorn Values Day.

Heartfelt worship session with Darlene Zschech
and the Brisbane City Church Band and choir – so sweet to be there.

Darlene read the verses blessing her:
Ps34:4 God met me more than halfway,
   he freed me from my anxious fears.
Look at him; give him your warmest smile.
   Never hide your feelings from him.

1Thess.5:24 May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together—spirit, soul, and body—and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ.

Wayne said the model for City Care was about to be repeated throughout the world.
Matt16:18b “and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”.

Church is uncomplicated.
Acts2:42-43.
Teaching of apostles – is not cliché!
3 Sunday night teachings then last Sunday night of month – CELEBRATE.
Fellowship – real personal interaction – not only Facebook & Podcasts.-
not come, sit, leave, either.
Breaking of Bread – come together to corporately remember Jesus.
Prayer and Worship.
Early church did this; they met in houses and the temple and won souls because
God added those who were to be saved.
Uganda has just had 2500 souls added.
Godhead said everything in creation was Good
until they saw that Adam felt alone in his form.
When Jesus said “Where are you Adam?
It was not: “oh dear I’ve only made one human and I’ve lost him already!!!”
It was “let’s sort out your disconnection from the Three in One” Namely:

Eph.2:13 But don't take any of this for granted. It was only yesterday that you outsiders to God's ways had no idea of any of this, didn't know the first thing about the way God works, hadn't the faintest idea of Christ. You knew nothing of that rich history of God's covenants and promises in Israel, hadn't a clue about what God was doing in the world at large.
Now because of Christ—dying that death, shedding that blood—
You, who were once out of it altogether, are in on everything.

We then broke bread together – He tastes So GOOD


a few beliefs of Brisbane City Church : 
  • That the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.
  • That in order to receive forgiveness and the "new birth" we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.
  • That in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts, including speaking in tongues which is the initial evidence of baptism in the Holy Spirit.
