In Matthew 16:21–28, Jesus tells His disciples about His coming suffering—and calls us to follow Him by laying down our own ways. ‘Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for Me will find it.’ Surrender isn’t weakness—it’s the doorway to purpose, peace, and eternal life. #TakeUpYourCross #Matthew1628 #FaithOverFear”
Pharaoh asked, ‘Who is the Lord, that I should obey Him?’ (Exodus 5:2)—a question rooted in pride and control. But Jesus teaches in Matthew 16:24–25, ‘Whoever wants to be My disciple must deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Me.’ One path clings to self. The other surrenders. True life begins when we stop resisting and start trusting. Surrender isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of everything God has for us.
Join us this Sunday, April 6th as Dr. Rev. Aubrey Botha unpacks Matthew 16:21-28 (NIV). This passage calls us to align our perspective with God’s, trust in His plan, and commit to following Jesus. God’s plan often looks different from what we expect. Come expectant, because when God shows up, everything changes!
Spoken by Jesus to the thief on the cross, these words remind us that grace is never out of reach — even in our final moments. This verse is a powerful glimpse into what the cross really means — undeserved mercy, instant access to hope, and a Savior who welcomes us home. No matter your story, the door to paradise is open.
The battle we fight is real—temptation lurks, struggles persist, and the weight of sin tries to pull us back. But remember who you are in Christ! Your old self was crucified with Him, and you are no longer a slave to sin (Romans 6:6-7). In the midst of the fight, cling to the promise of eternal life: “Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.’” (John 6:54)
You are redeemed, strengthened, and victorious in Him. Keep fighting the good fight!♥️
THE BATTLE WE FIGHT!
Join us this Sunday, March 23, 2025, as Dr. Aubrey Botha delivers a powerful sermon on overcoming the struggles we face in our spiritual journey.
“We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ, we were set free from the power of sin.” – Romans 6:6-7
The battle is real, but victory is ours in Christ! Will you stand and fight with faith?
Everyone Welcome / 10am
Another member of Central Church who was just awarded the King Charles III Medal! Congratulations David Pinnington!
He is a committed community volunteer who has applied his professional expertise and knowledge to help develop and grow organizations which benefit all citizens of Cambridge.
David has served as President of the Cambridge Association for Community Living, the first civilian President of the Cambridge Fire Museum and Education Centre and Chair of the Conestoga College Business Administration Management Studies Program Advisory Committee and many more.
In many cases, such as the Cambridge and North Dumfries Community Foundation and the Cambridge Fire Museum and Education Centre to name but two examples, David was there at the beginning to help get them started when they were simply a good idea and a hope for the future. Today these two organizations are an integral part of the life of this community.
