    God promised that He will "pour out" His Spirit upon the house of Israel. It's a rich and evocative phrase. What does that mean for Christians today?

    A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM: Today in America we often see a powerless Christianity. - We see a church in America that is by many measures in decline. - The numbers attending have been decreasing for many years. - We have many churches that are closing and many more that are on life support. - The ...read more

    Cretans still live. Liars and evil brutes still walk among us. Who are they, and how can I protect myself against them?

    OPEN: A 3 year old boy went with his father to see a litter of kittens. On returning home, he breathlessly informed his mother, "There were two boy kittens and two girl kittens."

     | 37,323 views

    Emotional people make big mistakes when they base decisions on how they feel rather than obeying God and what they know is the right thing to do. We have to learn how to live beyond our feelings and do what is right even when we feel we have been wronged.

    (this sermon has some thoughts and points from various sermons that have been published on various media sights). TITLE: GET OUT OF YOUR FEELINGS SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 15:21-28 This past week FBC was honored to host the 121st Annual Session of the Oklahoma Missionary Baptist State Convention. ...read more

    You know we love the shallows—where it’s safe where we do not have to trust as much, where we can know the basics and stick to that., manageable, predictable. But God doesn’t call us to ankle-deep faith. He calls us to the deep.

    So, I want to you to think back. I want to ask can you remember the first time you ever went into the ocean, you know when you get onto the sand and you see the waves, I want you think back on that day. The smell of the breeze, some of you are like man I rather want to be at the coast now. Right. ...read more

    Called Out: The Role Of The Church

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022
     | 2,048 views

    Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, and no one else (Matthew 16:13-19). We have strayed from what the Scriptures teach about the church's purpose and responsibilities and instead allowed the world's opinions take precedence over what we are to be and do.

    When we hear the word "church", most of us think of a building or membership in a particular denomination with standards, beliefs, and guidelines for worship, order, the reading and use of Scripture, and sermons. The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more

    Some folks think we have to work for our salvation. Maybe we’re saved by grace, but we stay saved by our works. Big mistake.
