The main speaker at Aber this year is Conrad Mbewe from Zambia. We are focusing on the closing verse of 1 Timothy 3. He began on Tuesday morning by giving us the context saying that the church is appointed by God to know and love and defend and proclaim the truth. Its central message is Christ, his person and work. That is why we need to know and love and worship and speak of him. Taking the view that verse 16 is part of a hymn he also urged the reducing of such glorious truths to hymnody to teach and help in praise.
On Wednesday morning he looked at the first two clauses of verse 16 (He appeared in a body, was vindicated by the Spirit) and preached the central truths of the incarnation and the glorious resurrection and ascension of Christ. Presumably he will look at the remaining clauses today (Thursday) and tomorrow.
