Welcome To Melbourne Mar Thoma Church

A Brief History of Mar Thoma Church Melbourne Parish

The early beginning and growth of the Mar Thoma Congregation in Melbourne may be viewed in the context of several Episcopal visits to Australia from 1970. A homegroup of the Mar Thoma people was formed after the visit of Bishop Thomas Mar Athanasious in 1980. Initially, the homegroup met once a year and then it became twice yearly on a regular basis in various homes for Bible study and fellowship. Later we moved to a church hall in Vermont and started conducting Divine Services.

Lectionary Theme: Holy Spirit: The Lord and giver of life.

  •   

    25. I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you.

    26. A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will remove from your body the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.

    27. I will put my spirit within you, and make you follow my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances.

    28. Then you shall live in the land that I gave to your ancestors; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.

    29. I will save you from all your uncleannesses, and I will summon the grain and make it abundant and lay no famine upon you.

  •   

    1. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

    2. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

    3. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and to deal with sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,

    4. so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

    5. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

    6. To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

    7. For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law—indeed it cannot,

    8. and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

    9. But you are not in the flesh; you are in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

    10. But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

    11. If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit that dwells in you.

    16. Live by the Spirit, I say, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.

    17. For what the flesh desires is opposed to the Spirit, and what the Spirit desires is opposed to the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you want.

    18. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not subject to the law.

    19. Now the works of the flesh are obvious: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,

    20. idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions, factions,

    21. envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these. I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. The Fruit of the Spirit

    22. By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness,

    23. gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things.

    24. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

    25. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.

    26. Let us not become conceited, competing against one another, envying one another.

    15. “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

    16. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever.

    17. This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you.

    18. “I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you.

    19. In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me; because I live, you also will live.

    20. On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

    21. They who have my commandments and keep them are those who love me; and those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them.”
