Zion Primitive Baptist Church

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on July 20, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, the world’s interpretation of Romans 8:28 is clearly wrong. “All things” does NOT mean “all things without exception”! Not only does a contextual analysis of the verse require a different interpretation, but also we began to see that there...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on July 20, 2025) In our study on the Book of Romans, we have come to one of the most misinterpreted and misapplied verses in Scripture. In Romans 8:28, we read that “all things work together for good” for God’s people. Does this mean “all things without exception?” Is...

by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on July 13, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, marriage is an institution created by God for the purpose of reflecting the relationship between Christ and His Bride, the Church. Join us today as Elder John Morgan Owens continues to teach us from the Bible about marriage, and...

by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on July 13, 2025) There is perhaps no other institution on earth that is more under assault today than marriage. In these messages, Elder John Morgan Owens teaches us about marriage from a biblical perspective, and reminds us that it is this institution above all institutions that should reflect...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on July 13, 2025) There are many verses that are misunderstood in the modern religious world. In today’s sermon, Elder Buddy Abernathy takes us through three of these verses, and “rightly divides” them so that we get a clear view of what they mean and how they apply. Download Audio...

by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on June 29, 2025) There are many examples in Scripture of people who came seeking Jesus. Elder John Morgan Owens has been taking us through some of these examples, showing us how people came to Jesus when He was here on this earth. Join us today for the conclusion...

by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on June 29, 2025) In the Gospel of John, we read about some Greek disciples who came seeking Jesus. The goal of their journey was not to find knowledge, or even truth, but to find the One Who is THE Truth! Join us as Elder John Morgan Owens preaches...

by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on May 11, 2025) In Matthew 11:28, Jesus tells all who labor and are heavy-laden to come to HIM for rest. Don’t we need rest in this troubled world? In this encouraging sermon, Elder John Morgan Owens reminds us that we can find rest in this stress-filled world only...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 8, 2025) As we began to learn yesterday, the worship of God should focus upon simplicity. When we got to church on this particular Sunday morning, the electricity was off and we had no power. But that did NOT affect us, because as Primitive Baptists we don’t...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 8, 2025) On the Sunday morning when this sermon was preached, the electricity was off due to a storm. In many churches, this would have hindered the worship; but not in a Primitive Baptist church! Here at Zion church, we were able to continue right along without...

by Elder David Crawford (preached on June 8, 2025) In the first half of this powerful sermon, preached by Elder David Crawford recently when he visited with us here at Zion Primitive Baptist Church, we learned that life is a wilderness. We are pilgrims and strangers in a strange land, seeking a better country. But...

by Elder David Crawford (preached on June 8, 2025) In this powerful message, Elder David Crawford reminds us from Psalm 81 that life is a wilderness. God wants us to think of ourselves as pilgrims on a journey through a wilderness experience! Much like the children of Israel, we struggle in that journey, and need...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on July 6, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, the Holy Spirit helps us in our lives here and now, especially in our prayer life. He intercedes for us before the throne of grace, and as we will see today, so does Jesus Christ. We need this intercession...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on July 6, 2025) As we approach the climax of Romans Chapter 8, we come to a very reassuring passage about the Holy Spirit and how He helps our infirmities. Don’t our infirmities threaten to overcome us in this life? Mine sure do, especially in my prayer life! But...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 29, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, “hope” is an essential concept for our assurance in the here and now. Biblical hope is a real thing, a confident expectation of good, based upon the finished work of Christ on the cross. We began to see yesterday...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 29, 2025) As we move on through Chapter 8 of the Book of Romans, we come to a precious statement by Paul: “We are saved by hope.” For those of us who are familiar with what Primitive Baptists believe about hope, we understand that “hope” is not...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, adoption is a central concept to Scripture. We learned that God the Father purposed our adoption, and God the Son paid for our adoption by His death on the cross. Join us today as we continue examining the concept...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) The principle of “adoption” is central to the word of God. It applies particularly to our eternal salvation in Christ Jesus. We find in the Scripture that God the Father purposed our adoption before the foundation of the world, God the Son paid for our...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, in order to experience the abundant life here and now, we must be led by the Spirit of God. There are many “spirits” in the world, most of which will lead us very far from the Kingdom of God!...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) As we get back to our study in the Book of Romans, we are looking at two verses in Chapter 8 which deal with being led by the Spirit of God. It is important to understand that Paul is NOT speaking here of eternal life,...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) As we continue in Chapter 9 of Nehemiah, we see that the people of God continued to worship their God even after the Feast of the Tabernacles was ended. They continued in the word of God, which brought them conviction and repentance. And as they...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 22, 2025) In our study of Nehemiah, we have come to the ninth chapter. Here we find that, after celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles in the right way for the first time since the days of Joshua the son of Nun, the Jews in Nehemiah’s day didn’t...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) In Jeremiah 6:16, God tells His people to “ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein.” But where do we find the “old paths?” Do we go back to the way our parents did it? Do we go back to...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 15, 2025) As we saw in the last sermon, Nehemiah and Ezra gathered the people of the Lord together for a public worship service after the walls had been rebuilt. And the people listened to the word that was read and explained, and were obedient to it!...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on June 1, 2025) In the first half of this sermon, we examined the qualifications of Ezra the Priest, who was a faithful servant who stayed in the word of God. Today, we continue looking at this account, where Nehemiah and Ezra gathered the people together to get them...
