We acknowledge the triune God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit), the Creator of heaven and earth and His ownership of all things (Psalm 24:1) including the lands within this country of Australia.
We recognise that He gave stewardship of these lands upon which we meet to the indigenous occupants of the land (Acts 17:26).
We recognise that in His sovereignty, He has allowed other people groups to migrate to these shores.
We pray for civil peace for all people groups in order that the gospel of peace would be freely proclaimed (1 Tim. 2:1-2).
We seek the good of all peoples under the umbrella of Almighty God who dwell within the land of Australia. We want the best for all descendants of the First Nation peoples, and all emigrants who joined them afterwards, that those now in this country may truly know and understand the peace of God among all peoples gathered here, to the glory of God. (Mar. 12:29-31).

(Acts 10:34-36).
We also acknowledge and rely on the Scriptures as presented by other writers in the Old and New Testaments, whom Almighty God has used for the good of mankind, and His (God’s) glory!
5 Revival Truths, Revival Fire; Rev. Charles Grandison Finney
Known as one of the Fathers of Revivals, Finney explains how God works through Revival to restore His Born-again people to their rightful position before Him. Also shows the dangers of departing from the truths of God’s Word and Will. Compares later Revivals during the Second Great Awakening in Northern America with earlier ones and shows the difference between God-given and inspired Revivals and those promoted by wrong theology, emotional stirring, and power-seeking individuals!
6 Power from on high - Rev. Charles Grandison Finney
Return to the LORD with a repentant heart. Enjoy this book by Charles Finney as he seeks to bring you to a place of true Revival. Be warned regarding the dangers of false revivalism, as this is as apparent today as it was in Finney's day.
7 The Complete Works of Charles G. Finney; The Gospel Truth Ministries

And a big thank you to them for the amount of work done to present this collection to the wider community. Gospel Truth Ministries Library of Revival Theology www.GospelTruth.net The early Church had no building, no money, and no political influence, Yet they turned the world upside down! Acts 17:6. And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also.
8 Beginnings - Jeffrey M. Pearce
This article looks at some theoretical possibilities regarding the Beginnings of the Earth and all that is in it. Some may be considered controversial.
Following that is an opportunity for you to choose if you will believe either/neither or any of them.
Remember, GOD is greater than ALL our theories, and HIS ways are past finding out!
9 The Love of God - unknown
A rediscovery of an ancient poem describing the majesty of Almighty God. This verse has become part of a well-known hymn and deserves to be remembered. Absolutely astounding and truly inspiring.
10 Four Steps plus Four; Jeffrey M. Pearce
If you don’t get these 4 Steps right first off, then you will have trouble with your spiritual growth in Jesus. Then the ultimate gift of God (Salvation in and through Christ Jesus) is shown simply, and in biblical detail. Salvation from sin is essential for all who will repent and believe. But it is not a one-off event, for after it comes Sanctification which is an extension and a growth in Grace leading from Salvation, becoming holy and showing the fruit of God’s Holy Spirit till we pass on to being Glorified, and then Eternal Life.
11 Ultimate Questions. Rev. Eric Neil Harvey.
Points of concern we need to, and must, face up to before we die. If we cannot answer these questions truthfully, we may have serious problems to resolve!
- Is anyone there?
- Has God Spoken?
- What is God Like?
- Who am I?
- What went wrong?
- Is Sin Serious?
- Where to from here?
- Can religion help?
- Is there an answer?
- Why the cross?
- How can I be saved?
- Which way now?
12 The Trinity - Rev. Patrick Coman
Who, what and why of God. An expose of the “makeup” of the Godhead, and the ways each person works within the Godhead.
13 The Grace of God - Jeffrey M. Pearce
What the Grace of God really is, and what it means to you. The overriding characteristic of God which is paramount in all of life and being. Utterly essential to everyone’s spiritual wellbeing.
14 How do we follow the Lord - One Path Publishing 2021
Instructions on how to follow Jesus in the Ways of God. Excellent guidance for both new and more established Christians. “This is the way, walk ye in it.” Isaiah 30:21.
With thanks to One Path Publishing copywrite 2021.
15 Faith, another gift of God - Jeffrey M. Pearce
The why’s and wherefores of the penultimate gift of God. Shows where true faith comes from and encourages us all to exercise this gift.
Trust in the Lord with ALL thine heart; and lean not on thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge HIM, and HE shall direct thy paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
16 The Gifts - Jeffrey M Pearce
An acknowledgement of many of the gifts that God has bestowed upon mankind, and which are still available to Born Again Christians today. Ask according to God’s Will in genuine love and humility and ye shall receive!
17 True and False Repentance. Jeffrey M. Pearce
Modern Christian Ministry seems to have changed a lot since Jesus preached and taught in Israel. This discussion, True and False repentance, is meant to return us to the first necessary truth that Jesus preached. (Mark 1:14-15).
18 1050 Commandments from the New Testament. Rev. Finis Jennings Dake.
A selection (mostly abbreviated) from the New Testament of Laws, requirements, suggestions and Godly instructions and truths. These commands etc. are as relevant today as when Jesus and His followers spoke them some 2,000 years ago. Please read them in context. And we are sure that our heavenly Father will bless your spiritual life and lead you into even more wisdom for life abounding.
19 Tidbits - Jeffrey M. Pearce
Various terms of Theology and their use by God in His Kingdom. Some of these terms have not been used correctly for several hundred years!
20 Knowing the Will of God - Jeffrey M. Pearce
With careful prayer, reading the Bible, and careful relying and trusting upon the leading of God’s Holy Spirit, a Christian can search with all his/her heart and God will make His plans clear, usually one step at a time, and at HIS time!
Do you want God's will or your will?
21 The Struggle; Jeffrey M. Pearce
Knowing the Will of God is one thing. Doing it is another. Although we may know what our Father wants us to do, actually doing it means we may just have to get out of the way.
It is so important that we do not forget that our life IS a struggle, but that our LORD Jesus is always available to meet our every need.
22 Heaven - Rev. Patrick Corman
A good look at this eternal abode. Very enlightening and encouraging, especially what God has for us eternally.
Reverend Coman expertly hits the nail on the head with his Armenian look at Heaven.
23 Hell - Rev. Patrick Coman
Once again, Reverend Coman gives us an expose', this time regarding the other eternal abode.
We have to make a decision as to where we want to spend eternity. Is it with God or is it without God?
24 Confessions of a Sinner saved by Grace - Jeffrey M Pearce
Two good looks at these eternal abodes. Very enlightening and encouraging, especially what God has for us eternally.
25 A Definition of Sanctification
A very conclusive/concise but quite readable expose for the beginning Christian. Also a reminder for older Christian's wanting to refresh and/or renew their doctrinal beliefs.
26 Basic divisions of some of the Christian churches
Basic divisions of some of the Christian churches, some history, etc. In Alphabetical Order. Please refer to Wikipedia regarding these topics. It is not our wish to enter in to Church politics, but rather allow each individual believer to learn the human teachings of Christianity, and trust that our Lord’s Holy Spirit will guide each person according to God’s Perfect Will and Teachings! Remember that ALL man-thought theology is only a partial display of what GOD in His magnificence and truth wants to reveal as His perfect designs for us!

Within the groupings of the Christian Churches and Denominations, there are those that announce that they only have the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and no other church.
