Multitudes attend (what men call) “church services” all over the world. Many go because it is a habit, others go believing it will save them. Many go because it makes them feel better about themselves, like the Pharisee who “thanked God he wasn’t as other men”. But why do we, you and I, attend? What are our reasons? What is our motive? 1 – We gather together to hear the Gospel of… Read More
We know the natural man “receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them”. (1 Corinthians 2:14) In 1 Peter 1:23 it says there are two seeds, a birth and flesh. One seed is “corruptible”, the other is “incorruptible”. What happens to the soul that is born again by the incorruptible seed of God? Does he have a new nature? Has… Read More
While visiting somewhere recently a lady from our congregation said the preacher announced his subject, it was; “God needs your help”. She told her husband, “no God doesn’t need our help, we need His”. Naturally they left. Who is in need, God or us? Who needs help, God or us? Who is helpless, God or us? You and I are tossed about by many things and are often moved by situations, and… Read More
2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 Timothy 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2 Timothy 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 2 Timothy 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; ——————– Love is a word… Read More
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” (Romans 3:23) some may not be as profane as others, but “all have sinned”! You may be a fine mother, a loving daughter, chaste and very moral, receiving praise from all who know you but…if you have not received Christ by faith, and His righteousness has not been charged to your account you are no better off before God than… Read More
The Wise Man (Ecclesiastes 8:1-7, Romans 9:16, Jeremiah 6:14, Jeremiah 8:11, Genesis 22:17-18) “Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.” (Ecclesiastes 8:3) The title of the article is, “Take a Stand in a Good Thing”, which was derived from Ecclesiastes 8:3 which says, “Stand not in an evil thing.” If we have to discuss the negative side of… Read More
Nothing a soul does in this world honours God more than to BELIEVE HIM. God says, “For by it (faith) the elders obtained a good report” (Hebrews 11:2). Again, “But without faith it is impossible to please him” (Hebrews 11:6). Our Lord told the woman of Canaan whose daughter was vexed with a devil that she had great faith. The other side of the coin is this – to not believe God… Read More
“To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.” (Acts 10:43) Before any one can have Christ, they must first have the Scriptures. Without the word of God there can be no knowledge of Christ the Lord. It is only in God’s Holy Word that Christ is fully revealed, “in the volume of the book it is written of Him”. All… Read More
“If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus.” (Ephesians 4:21) I have noticed in my dealing with men that when it comes to things that are important to them they go to someone who has information for the help they need. If they have car trouble they go to a mechanic. If they have financial needs they go to a… Read More
The Greatest Man in History, named Jesus, had no servants, yet they called him master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him healer. He had no army, yet kings feared him. He won no military battles, yet he conquered the world. He committed no crime…yet they crucified him. He was buried in a tomb, yet he lives today! By Donald Bell
This is an audio sermon by Don Bell titled: “Seriousness and Sacredness of Marriage” The scripture texts that brother Don is preaching from are Genesis 2:21-24, and Ephesians 5:22-33. The audio is 40 minutes long.
To redeem poor sinners, Jesus came down from heaven, put on the rags of our mortality, agonized, bled, and died. Jesus is made His people’s substitute, burden-bearer, sin-remover, and guilt-sustainer. Their debt is placed to His account. His riches pay the full amount. Sin is removed from the sinner, and placed on the Sinless! Their curse is rolled on Him, and He endures it, until no more remains! God deals with Jesus… Read More
“But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets…” (Acts 24:14) Someone recently referred to our congregation as a cult saying, “They don’t believe like most churches. They have this weird view of God as sovereign in everything, even to the point of saying that He… Read More
In listening to a message I heard a preacher say there are a lot “of sub par Christians”. I do not believe that for a moment. Gods holy word says “we are complete in Him” (Colossians 2:9-10). God also says that “he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified” (Hebrews 10:14). Christ is “made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:30). Where is anything sub par about that? All… Read More
When the Gospel is preached, there are two things always taking place (even though most are unaware of it). Some are being prepared for glory, others are being hardened. Some are being brought to the light, some are left sitting in darkness. Some see Christ and His glory; others see no beauty about Him. Some who hear the Gospel have their hearts made tender toward sin; others have their hearts hardened in… Read More
There is no such thing as a Christian who is not born again by the effectual power of the Spirit of God. All believers are faithful and dedicated to Christ and His cause on this earth. To be anything less than that is not a Christian and does not deserve the name. Believers desire the gospel and the fellowship of the saints. They avail themselves of every opportunity to hear it unless… Read More
“And be found In Him…” (Philippians 3:9) When the Apostle talked about being found in Christ he described himself as at one time being without Christ. How did he know what it was to not be found in Christ? He at one time was looking to his own righteousness, trusting in the deeds of his flesh. After being smitten down on the Damascus road, after having seen the Glory of Christ, after… Read More
When we become Christians, it is very natural for us to say to ourselves, “We don’t want to be second – rate, or half – hearted Christians, or prove to be like the Laodicean professors, neither hot or cold, or like those of whom the apostle John wrote, “They went out from us, but they were not of us,” We all said we had a holy ambition to bring forth fruit to… Read More
This is an audio sermon by Henry Mahan titled: “Speaking in Tongues” The scripture text is from 1st Corinthians 14, and the audio is 27 minutes long.
“The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.” (Isaiah 53:6) How shall we account for the sufferings of Christ, which were intense, and mysterious, if not on the ground of their vicarious character? Those sufferings were intense in the extreme. There was a severity in those who, if not required by Divine justice, would be perfectly unaccountable. Heaven, earth, and hell, all were in league against Him. Survey His… Read More
This is an audio sermon by Henry Mahan titled: “A Biblical Look At The Modern Day Practice of Speaking In Tongues” The scripture text is from 1st Corinthians 14, and the audio is 46 minutes long.
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6) Everything about our Lord Jesus is wonderful. Here the prophet says; “His name shall be called wonderful”. We sing that chorus; “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, there is just something about that name”…. Read More
“That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing.” (Colossians 1:10) The first thoughts most of us have when we read, “walk worthy,” or “pleasing the Lord” is I must start living better, or I can’t possibly walk in such a way as will please the Lord. Both are wrong thoughts, they both are based upon works, and a false humility. So preacher how then can I walk in such… Read More
Preachers and evangelists are often heard to say, “Send in a certain amount of money and if we get the money we need we can reach more souls for Jesus and win them to Jesus.” One popular evangelist said that the souls he had won to Jesus that particular year cost 47 cents each. That is to true believers, a tragedy, for if money was all it took, we would give all… Read More
“For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” (I Corinthians 6:20) How deep, how dreadful, of what awful magnitude, of how black a dye, of how ingrained a stamp must sin be, to need such an atonement – no less than the blood of Him who was the Son of God – to put it away. What a slave to… Read More
Some of our dear friends have been through some severe trials, and others are now suffering in heart and body. All of us wish to witness a good confession and maintain an attitude and conversation which will help and inspire others and glorify our Lord. But pain is pain. The loss of a dear child or mate is overwhelming, and we are still in this body of flesh. Therefore, let it be… Read More
All of the apostles were insulted by the enemies of their Master. They were called to seal their doctrines with their blood, and nobly did they bear the trial. Schumacher says that according to traditional statements the following was the fate of the apostles: MATTHEW suffered martyrdom by being slain with a sword, at a distant city of Ethiopia. MARK expired at Alexandria, after having been cruelly dragged through the streets of… Read More
Confessing Christ is the whole of a person’s life, revealing outwardly what God has worked inwardly. It is the confession by word, act, deed, and attitude, what God, by His Spirit, has created within our hearts. “One tree is not a forest,” it has been said. So, one public act is not a confession of Christ. By Henry Mahan
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous, therefore, and repent;” (Revelation 3:19) ———————— The persons, the objects of Christ’s love here intended are not angels, but the sons of men; and these not all of them, yet many of them, even all who are His own by His Father’s gift and His own purchase; and who are called His church, and sometimes represented as such who love Him… Read More
When, by His grace, I know WHO HE IS, I better understand who and what I am! When I know WHAT HE DID in obedience and death, I realize what I cannot do! When I understand WHY HE MUST SUFFER, I understand how God can be just and justify me. When I know WHERE HE IS, I can rest in the blessed hope that I shall one day be there too! By… Read More
“I will feed my flock.” (Ezekiel 34:15) The only real food of the soul must be of God’s own appointing, preparing, and communicating. You can never deceive a hungry child. You may give it a plaything but still it cries. It may serve for a few minutes; but the pains of hunger are not to be removed by a doll. A toy horse will not allay the cravings after the mother’s breast…. Read More
True mourning for sin has a distinct and constant reference to the Lord Jesus. If I hate sin because I am exposed, I have not repented; I merely regret that I have been found out. If I hate sin because of judgment and hell, I have not repented; I merely regret that God is just. But if I see sin as a hateful offense against my Lord, and I see my sin… Read More
“For all the promises of God in Him are YEA and in Him AMEN unto the Glory of God by us.” (2 Corinthians 1:20) Our Lord has made many promises to believers. These promises are all in Christ, since only He existed when they were made and since He has fulfilled all conditions by His obedience and death. Therefore, all of these promises are “YEA” and in Him “AMEN” or so be… Read More
“And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord,” (Acts 9:1) manifested his unregenerate heart and hatred toward God. His relentless persecution of Christ’s disciples revealed his disbelief and rejection of Christ as that Messiah foretold in Holy Scripture. Saul, just as all sinners, desperately needed the One who commanded the Light to shine out of darkness, to shine in his heart and give “the Light of… Read More
The carnally-minded are quick to speak of temporal (thus, fleeting) things as “blessings,” but the true believer knows that “every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights” (James 1:17). Those things that men perceive as blessings are unimportant; read (and hear, by the grace of God) of a man who is truly blessed: “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin… Read More
1 Kings 3:5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. 1 Kings 3:6 And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given… Read More

“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” (John 4:34) The meat of Christ, or the food which satisfied His Spirit, was to do the will of His Father who had sent Him. It was God’s will that of all those chosen before the foundation of the world unto salvation Christ should lose nothing, but should raise it up… Read More

This is an audio sermon by Scott Richardson titled: “The Glory of The Gospel” The scripture text that brother Scott is preaching from is 2nd Corinthians 4 and the audio is 31 minutes long.
Nothing soothes the regenerated heart of a believer more than considering the mercy of God. Try to contemplate the depth of His mercy and I am lost in my inadequacies. How merciful has God been to me? The very word “mercy” has a sound of hope. It means to have compassion, sympathy, tenderness, clemency, leniency, charity, to yearn over, to pity, to melt the heart. O, the wonder of desiring that God… Read More

The message of the Gospel is a very narrow message that encompasses the breadth or the span of God himself. It is narrow in the sense that Christ is its only object. There is nothing that I can preach from the Scriptures that will not find its beginning and end all redounding to the glory and honour of Christ. Any message that focuses on anything but Him misses the Gospel. By Marvin… Read More

“Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.” (Luke 10:38-39) What a world of meaning is in these words, “Mary, which also sat at his feet, and heard his word.” This is indeed the “one thing needful.”… Read More
“Look every man on the things of others.” (Philippians 2:4) ——————– The failure of most preachers is traced not to the fact that they do not have a pastor’s head, voice, and energy, but they do not have a pastor’s heart! The failure of most church members and professing christians to be a blessing to family, friends, and outsiders is not that you do not have the proper doctrine, the proper moral… Read More
I quoted this verse backwards to what it actually says, “We walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Corinthians 5:7). Why I put this verse this way is because we sometimes walk by sight and not faith. We are often overwhelmed by life, things pile one upon another, and we LOOK at these troubles instead of the God who sent them. When we walk by sight all we see is vanity, and… Read More
As we have opportunity to preach or to witness to someone, it is not God honouring to tell them that God loves them and Christ died for them. The word of God and our Lord Jesus Christ gives us what we are to say, “except ye believe I Am He ye shall die in your sins” (John 8:24). “He that believeth on the Son of God hath life; he that believeth not… Read More
As believers in the gospel of the free and sovereign grace of God in Christ Jesus, we should every time we pray, pray with expectancy. We are God’s children by eternal election and faith in Christ, so why WOULDN’T our Heavenly Father hear and answer our prayers? When we are seeking His will, and the conversion of sinners to Christ, and for the church here to grow in grace, faith and love,… Read More
“Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?” (Psalm 85:6) When the religious world talks about revival they mean an emotional series of meetings that will win souls and get backslidden church members to rededicate their lives to an impotent Jesus. But the psalmist prays and asks the Lord; “Wilt thou not revive us again?” I believe we desperately need for God to revive us…to stir up… Read More
“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.” (Psalm 46:10) The God of the bible is out of fashion in His own world. He is ridiculed, jokes are popular about him and His Son. He has been reduced to slogans and billboards and bumper stickers. His name has become a good luck charm, an insurance policy and whatever… Read More
“That which is born of the flesh is flesh.” (John 3:6) There is no promise made that in this life, we shall be set free from the indwelling and the in-working of sin. Many think that their flesh is to become “progressively holier and holier” — that sin after sin is to be removed gradually out of the heart — until at last they are almost made perfect in the flesh. But… Read More
“God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.” (Psalm 62:11) The power of God is that ability and strength, by which He can bring to pass whatsoever He pleases. It is His power that gives life and action to what He has purposed from the foundation of the world. How vain would the will of God be without power to carry it out? Without His power… Read More
The enemies of the free and sovereign grace of God claim that those of us, who believe and preach it, take away sinful man’s responsibility. We believe that he is totally unable apart from Divine Grace to do anything good in the sight of God that he is unable apart from being born again to do anything spiritual towards God. Though we believe and preach man’s spiritual and moral inability to save… Read More
There is not a living sinner who would not like to be delivered from torment in Hell, but apart from Grace, he does not want to be delivered from his sins which he loves and in which he has pleasure. His desire for deliverance is not from his sins, but from physical torture. By Scott Richardson
The sovereignty of God may be defined as the exercise of His supremacy. Being infinitely elevated above the highest creature, He is the Most High, Lord of heaven and earth. Subject to none, influenced by none, absolutely independent; God does as He pleases, only as He pleases, always as He pleases. None can thwart Him, none can hinder Him. So His own Word expressly declares: “My counsel shall stand, and I will… Read More

The most precious gift of all is to be remembered of God. “God remembered NOAH,” (Genesis 8:1). “God remembered ABRAHAM,” (Genesis 19:29). “God remembered His covenant with ABRAHAM, ISAAC, and JACOB,” (Exodus 2:24). And none of us can forget the prayer of the dying thief, “Lord, remember me,” (Luke 23:43). All such pleaders shall not be forgotten of Him. By Thomas Bradbury
When a person stands before a mirror, he sees three things–the mirror, himself, and other things which are in the room. When I sincerely look by faith into the scriptures, I see many things, but primarily three things. (1) I see the LORD JESUS CHRIST, for He verily is the WORD OF GOD. It is of Him, from Him, and to His glory that it is written. “To Him give all the… Read More
“Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married… Read More

The chief burden of the Lord’s living family is sin. This is the main cause of all their sighs and groans, from the first quickening breath of the Spirit of God in their hearts till they lay down their bodies in dust. But it may be asked, what experience could the blessed Lord have had of sin. Seeing he was perfectly free from it both in body and soul? It is indeed… Read More
Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. Romans 9:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. Romans 9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew… Read More
“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21) ______________________________________ Our only hope of salvation is the Lord Jesus Christ. Salvation is in Christ alone, in Christ completely, and in Christ only. In fact, He is God’s salvation (Luke 2:30). You cannot be saved without Him; and you cannot be saved if you try to mix… Read More
Does God love everyone in the world? Modern day religion says that He does. Men like to think that He does. But what does the Word of God say? Does God really love all people? This is what God says in Romans 9:13? “Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.” (Romans 9:13) Language could not be more emphatically clear. God never loved Esau at all; but He always did love… Read More
Have you ever stopped to consider what the god of this age is like? How he is presented to eternity bound souls? A popular way of trying to get someone “saved” is to say “now if you make a move, god will make a move”. It seems to me as if those who do this are telling souls that their god is playing checkers and that whoever makes the best move wins… Read More
“A half truth masquerading as the whole truth becomes a complete untruth” There is a desperate need to recover the Gospel! The gospel of man’s natural inability to believe, God’s electing grace in Christ being the cause of salvation and, of Christ dying only for the elect, those whom He calls his sheep. The Gospel of the Holy Spirit calling and regenerating those for whom Christ’s died and, those called will persevere… Read More
Here are five truths we hold to and believe with all our heart. Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, and Perseverance of the saints.
