A Simple Trust

A Simple Trust Matthew 18:1–14 1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoso shall receive one such little…

Baptism: All Righteousness Fulfilled

Baptism: All Righteousness Fulfilled. Reading of Matthew 3:5-17 A theologian named Augustine of Hippo, born in the mid 4th century, identified a fascinating reality respecting the Bible as a whole, and he summarised it in a saying that is still applied to this very day. “The New Testament is in the Old Testament Concealed; The Old Testament is in the New Testament Revealed” That is that much that we find in the Old Testament is either revealed or fulfilled perfectly in the New Testament.…

FINAL AUTHORITY

What is your final authority? With all the madness going on in the world people seem to trust in all but the Bible for truth. But the Bible is the ONLY place in the world where you will find ABSOLUTE TRUTH. Therefore, the Bible is the ONLY authority. “To the law and to the testimony”

The Disciples Examination

The Disciples Examination 1 Corinthians 4:14–21 14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. 15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.  16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.  17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance…

Testimonies

Lives have been transformed by the Lord across the world for near two thousand years. Real people with real lives have gone from darkness to light in their own personal way. With most of these same lives we can all find something to relate to and we hear of their journey to Christ.
These are some from Hope Baptist Church.

Communion Differences

Communion Differences Luke 22:15–20 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And…
The Last Trump

The Last Trump

The final president of the United States, how close it may coincide with looming global financial collapse and the formal formation of the one world government? It will not surprise me to occur at the hand of this new president.

Will We?

The right answer can change the world, but what is the right question?

Remembrance Day, But Have We Forgotten?

Remembrance Day, a day in which we call to mind those who paid the ultimate price for the liberties we have enjoyed, but for far too long we seem to have forgotten why the price was paid, how it was gained and what this world truly has to offer.
Vaccinated against Division

Vaccinated Against Division

Vaccinated Against Division 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all,…
False Teachers

“I Have Not Sent Them”

I Have Not Sent Them Are All Pastors Sent By God? I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. Jeremiah 23:21 It was ancient Babylon that the idea of the infallibility of the priest was first identified. Alexander Hyslop makes mention of the Priests of the mystery religions holding peculiar knowledge and were held with an esteem that was above reproach. Sadly, the idea that a priest, prophet, king or…
