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

John The Greatest Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

It is of interest to note that John was the first person to recognize that Jesus came into the world to give His life as a sacrifice. He saw Jesus coming toward him and he said, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world."

It takes all kinds to make a world is an old cliché, and like many old clichés there is a lot of truth to it. God so made our physical world that it just won't work without differences. Issac Asimov points out that energy can only be turned into work when you find it in greater ...read more

John's World

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 15, 2015

Was John only the apostle of love, or also the prophet of judgment? Was he "free will" as in John 3:16, or "predestination" as in John 6:37. To ask these things about him is really to ask them about the One he quoted. Jesus does not fit into our boxes...

John’s World… Did John contradict John in regards to the doctrines of grace? Whose side was he on, after all? It wasn’t just Paul! There’s a real opposition in the evangelical church to what they call “Calvinism”, but what Spurgeon called “Bible.” ...read more

John 21

Contributed by Joe Mack Cherry on Jun 15, 2022

John 21 is a chapter that offers so much but it takes more than just reading it to grasp what it contains.

John 21 I. Expository Look at John 21 A. Introduction 1. Many believe that this chapter was added after the fact. The final couple of verses read like Chapter 20 but this is man’s speculation.
