Concord Baptist Church

Concord Baptist Church is a family of regular people who love Jesus and have found that life works best when we do it together with God and each other. Our goal is to be a welcoming and inclusive community of people; we might not have all the answers but we are listening to God’s Word and caring for one another along the way. As a church we are on a journey; seeking to discover what living with God’s Holy Spirit looks like in a multicultural city like Sydney. It is our privilege to worship together with people from a wide range of ages, cultures and backgrounds.

Our Sermons are also on YouTube!

This Sunday we are starting a new series in Paul’s first letter to Timothy.

Some people don’t like Paul. They read his letters and find that some of what he says seems to be offensive to our modern sensibilities.

Paul is accused of being sexist, of supporting slavery, of being narrow-minded and exclusive in his beliefs.

As we open up 1 Timothy, we discover that people didn’t like Paul in the first century either.

Paul writes this letter in defense of the gospel. Salvation is by faith in Christ Jesus and Him alone.

All other belief systems and teachings are flawed if they do not hold to the core teaching of the gospel.

Timothy and therefore us as well, are charged to stand firm against false teaching and to proclaim the truth of the gospel until Christ returns.
