There Must Be Factions?

Contributed by Chris Thron on Oct 18, 2000

Many doctrinal disputes within the Body of Christ are simply due to different uses of words.

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it. For there must be also factions among you, that they that are approved may be made manifest among you. (1 Cor. 11:18-19, ASV) Controversies over Bible interpretation often cause ...read more

An incomprehensive study on the ’one another’ verses. Part 3

I want to draw your attention to something most of us would never, otherwise, pause to consider very carefully...something that, in a way, we take for granted. Bearing another person’s burdens.

Subject To One Another Series

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 16, 2000

An incomprehensive study of the 'one another' verses. Part 4

An incomprehensive study of the 'one another' verses. Part 5

Corrie Ten Boom was arrested, along with her father and her sister, Betsie and two brothers, for helping to hide Jews from the Nazis during World War II.

Confessing To One Another Series

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 16, 2000

An incomprehensive study of the 'one another' verses. Part 7

Whose Side Are You On?

Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 21, 2000

A true unity in the Lord is something we must never take for granted, and something for which we ought always to pray and work

A few weeks ago another pastor told me, "Dan, things are not going the best at my church. It seems there is always controversy and division over something or someone. But, I guess church fights are normal. From what I understand, it is unusual for a congregation to go more than two years without a ...read more

A Blueprint For Building

Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000

with Christ as our foundation, we as a church and as individuals need to make sure we build with the right materials; make sure we stay God-centered; we need to rely on the Lord's strength and wisdom and avoid the temptation to take shortcuts

This church building was constructed about nine years ago. These are the blueprints for our church. Whoever put them together did a fine job, and they provided direction for the folks who built this structure which we often call First Baptist Church. It is good to keep in mind, though, that ...read more

Front Line Christians

Contributed by David Yarbrough on Jul 23, 2001

We have made Christianity into a spectator sport. We just sit back in church and listen to the music, and the sermons and never really get involved in the game. We need some Christians today to get off the sidelines and get on the front lines.
