East Gate Church

A sharp and severe shock is coming to this nation — and many are still not ready. In this timely message from East Gate Church, Stewart Green uses Psalm 91 as the clear biblical template for how God’s people can prepare now, dwell in the shelter of the Most High, and not only survive but thrive when the shock arrives. Drawing from the lessons of the First World War and the present spiritual condition of the nation, this sermon calls every believer to stop waiting for a better moment. The time to get match-fit, put total trust in God, and take the promises of Psalm 91 literally is today. Protection is real, but it is not automatic. There are qualifications. Those who choose to dwell, abide, and trust will experience God’s supernatural covering, peace in chaos, and provision when everything else fails. If you sense that harder times are ahead and you want to stand firm rather than be caught out, this message on Psalm 91 will show you exactly how to prepare. **In this sermon you will discover:** - Why a coming shock is inevitable and why it will not destroy the nation - How Psalm 91 functions as the practical template for protection and preparation - The critical difference between those who merely know the psalm and those who dwell in it - How to deal with fear, get right with God, and position yourself for supernatural peace - Why the faithful remnant’s prayers are being heard and what restoration looks like after the shock **Scripture:** Psalm 91   **Preacher:** Stewart Green   **Church:** Eastgate Church, Elderslie, Scotland Don’t wait until the storm hits.

God promises a highway where the unclean will not travel, lions will not lurk, and only the ransomed of the Lord will walk. It is a place of holiness, safety, and everlasting joy. As the desert blossoms and the weak are made strong, we are reminded that this same God is still at work today — turning barren places into places of abundance and calling His people to journey together in purity and purpose. Christ alone is the way. Holiness is not something we achieve so that we can come to Jesus; it is what He gives us the moment we receive Him. From that day He sets us apart as a holy nation, a royal priesthood, and His own special people (1 Peter 2:9). The Holy Spirit then continues the work, teaching us to deny ungodliness, separate from the unfruitful works of darkness, and keep walking the narrow path until we see Him face to face. **Key Scriptures** - Isaiah 35:8-10 – The Highway of Holiness - 1 Peter 1:15-16 – Be holy, for I am holy - 2 Corinthians 6:14–7:1 – Come out and be separate - John 14:6 – Jesus is the Way - Titus 2:11-14 – Grace teaches us to live godly lives - Hebrews 12:14 – Holiness, without which no one will see the Lord Whether you are new to faith, have drifted, or simply need fresh strength to keep walking, this message is for you. Jesus still calls: “Come and walk with us.”     -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

What would the church look like if we truly lived like the early believers? In this powerful and challenging message, we dig into the heart of Acts 2 and Acts 4 — the devotion, the fellowship, the shared life, the encouragement, and the power that marked the first church. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, to fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer. They were of one heart and one soul. They had everything in common. There was not a needy person among them. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. This message is both an encouragement and a loving challenge to East Gate Church (and the wider body of Christ). God is calling us out of isolation and into true community. He is calling every one of us to stop being “a bum on a seat” and to discover the gifts, talents, and role He has given us so we can build one another up. Key highlights from the message: - The early church as a living community (not just a weekly gathering) - The example of the kibbutz — everyone had a part to play - Barnabas the encourager — and the call for more Barnabases today - Love God first, then love the brothers and sisters in Christ - The Judgment Seat of Christ — what did you do with the talent He gave you? - A wake-up call: the world will suck the life out of you if you’re not intentional If this word challenges or encourages you, drop a comment below so we can pray with you and support you. Let’s pursue the kind of unity and love that makes the world say, “Look how they love one another.”   📖 Scriptures: Acts 2:42–47 | Acts 4:32–37 | Psalm 133 | Mark 12:29–31 | Ephesians 5:10   -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

Is your life cheapening the finished work of the cross? In this sobering and challenging message, Stewart Green opens Zephaniah 1:7-18 and confronts the danger of complacency, lukewarm faith, and part-time Christianity. God is purifying His bride. He wants us match-fit — not just surviving the dark and testing days ahead, but thriving. This is a personal call to get right with the Lord in every area of life, stop using grace as a licence to sin, and live fully for Jesus. Key themes in this sermon: - Complacency leads to disaster (“settled on their lees”) - Living in freedom from sin, not freedom to sin (Romans 6) - Areas that cheapen the cross: lack of commitment, gossip, addiction, lack of evangelism, laziness, failing to contend for truth, sexual immorality, materialism, body image, undermining the value of life, offence, and pride - The window of opportunity is open — but it will close - Hope for those who repent: purification and blessing (Zephaniah 2 & 3) Jesus gave everything on the cross. The least we can do is decide to live fully for Him. This is no time for half-heartedness or waiting until tomorrow. Scriptures referenced: Zephaniah 1:7-18, Zephaniah 2:1-3, Zephaniah 3:9-20, Romans 6, Ephesians 5:8, Colossians 2:9-10, Hebrews 10:25, Matthew 28:19-20, and others. If the Lord is speaking to you about something that is cheapening the work of the cross in your life, don’t ignore it. There is no shame in coming in repentance. Jesus is ready, willing, and waiting to help you.     -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

Church unity is not optional — it is essential for the blessing of God. In this honest and challenging message, Pastor Arthur O’Malley speaks directly into the issues of gossip, whispering, criticism, and division that quietly damage churches. Drawing from Psalm 133, Proverbs 18, and the words of Jesus in John 6, he shows why the tongue has the power of life and death, and why God bestows His blessing where brothers and sisters dwell together in unity. He also shares a personal testimony of falling out with a mentor and the conviction that led him to seek forgiveness — a powerful reminder that critical spirits hurt us more than they hurt others. Key themes: Why unity attracts the blessing of God (Psalm 133) The danger of gossip and “Chinese whispers” in the church How personal opinions can become division Jesus’ response when people were offended and left (John 6) Leading with humility and choosing to build rather than tear down If you’ve ever been hurt by church politics, struggled with criticism, or simply want to see greater unity where you are, this message is for you. Watch and be challenged to protect unity. 📖 Scripture References Psalm 133 Proverbs 18:8, 18:21 Mark 9:38–41 John 6:60–69 Hebrews 4:12     -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood up and cried out: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.” This message walks through the Feast of Booths — also called Sukkot, Tabernacles and the Feast of Ingathering — and why it still speaks to the Church today. We look at: • temporary shelters and God’s provision in the wilderness • joy after repentance — from the Days of Awe to celebration • the harvest, thanksgiving and our dependence on God • the sukkah roof and learning to look up • the water-drawing ceremony and Jesus as living water (John 7) • Simchat Torah — dancing with the Word who became flesh • the hope of Israel and the coming of the Messiah Saturday 3 October is the last great day of this feast.

The autumn feasts are not just Jewish history — they are God’s calendar for the second coming of Jesus. In this message, Pastor Arthur O’Malley walks through the Days of Awe, the Day of Atonement and the Feast of Tabernacles, and shows how Moses, David and the high priest were all shadows of the one true Deliverer, King and High Priest. You’ll hear: • Why the spring feasts pointed to the first coming — and the autumn feasts point to the return • How God sheltered Israel in Egypt while His wrath fell on Pharaoh • The power of standing in the gap (Moses, intercession, Scotland and Israel) • Zechariah 12: the day Israel looks on the One they pierced • Romans 11: a partial hardening until the fullness of the Gentiles — then all Israel will be saved • Why “Jesus can come back any moment” doesn’t fit the pattern of Scripture • A call to self-examination, repentance and applying the blood of the Lamb   Time is short.

"Did God really say"? That one question was the first deception in history. The serpent did not need a full lie. He only needed a foothold. Once Eve answered the door, the rest of Genesis 3 was already in motion.   In this message, Stewart Green opens Genesis 3 and shows how the devil still works the same way today — sowing doubt, mixing truth with a lie, making sin look better than obedience, then leaving shame and separation behind.   If you have been entertaining thoughts you should have shut down, battling the same sin, or hiding from God, this word is for you. In this message we look at: • Genesis 3 — the first deception and the fall • Proverbs 4:23 — guard your heart; it is the doorway of your life • 1 John 4:1 — test the spirits • James 1:13–16 — how desire gives birth to sin • James 4:7 — submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee • Romans 6:23 — the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life • Revelation 3:20 — Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart   You are not subject to the devil by default. Do not pretend he is not there. Do not get up to answer the door. The devil wants to keep you trapped in Genesis 3 — despair, hopelessness and death. God wants you to read on, all the way to Revelation 3.   Jesus is walking in the garden of your life today, calling out, “Where are you?” Will you come out of hiding?     -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

Why are so many churches in Scotland empty? It is not only a numbers problem. Faith stopped being transferred. Fellowship became tea after the service. And the next generation was never really introduced to Christ. In this message we open Scripture on what fellowship actually is — a deep spiritual connection among believers united in Christ, not small talk. We look at 2 Corinthians 6 and the danger of being unequally yoked, Hebrews 10 on not forsaking assembling, and 1 John 1 on fellowship with the Father and the Son through the Word. If you are isolated, new to faith, raising young people, or watching the shaking of the nations and wondering how the church survives the last days, this word is for you. No one stands alone. Fellowship is how we survive and thrive.     -- We are East Gate Church Elderslie - a vibrant and awake church in Elderslie, Scotland reaching the local community and beyond with the love and hope of Jesus.

There is another world we cannot see — and it is very real. In this message from Ephesians 6, Pastor Arthur O'Malley calls the church to wake up to the spiritual realm, put on the full armour of God, and stand against the schemes of the devil. Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, authorities, and spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Drawing from Elisha and his servant, the rebuilding of the walls in Nehemiah, and the name of Jesus as the sword of the Spirit, this sermon is a call to be strong in the Lord, stand together as the church, and fight for Scotland. Be strong in the Lord. Put on the whole armour of God. Having done all — stand.
