Intellectual For Christ Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

Missing Pieces Series

Knowledge of God’s Word and doctrine is an important part of Christian growth and maturity; it is not enough, but it is foundational. We vary, one from another, in our relationship to it.

Inviting Who We Know

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jan 18, 2022

Perhaps some of us are feeling inadequate to do something for the kingdom. We can start by getting people to attend church. All it takes is to think of someone we know, and then to invite that individual to join us. It's that simple!

This morning I wish to address a question that many believers have, and that is “How do we get people to come to church?” First of all, it is important for us to realize something I once saw stated on a church sign. Where the pastor’s name is normally listed, someone had posted this: “Minister: ...read more

The Baptism Of John Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jun 21, 2021

Re-baptism is a practice of some Baptist churches. This message looks at re-baptism in the New Testament, and discusses how when a person’s baptism is done under the wrong belief system, then the individual needs to be re-baptized.

I have entitled our message this morning, “The Baptism of John.” We have recently been learning about baptism, and today, I am going to be discussing false baptisms; and the best way to present this message is by looking at what the New Testament refers to as “the baptism of John.” This was a ...read more

Are You On The Way Or In The Way?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 5, 2022

Early Jewish Christians referred to themselves as "The Way," which some have surmised comes from the book of Isaiah, where it was prophesied, "prepare the way of the Lord" (Isaiah 40:3).

"The Way" is how Jesus referred to Himself, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6 ESV). Throughout the book of Acts, people who were followers of Jesus were not called Christians but considered "a sect of the ...read more
