by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on September 7, 2025) In our exposition of the Book of Romans, we have come to a verse that causes many people to stumble. In Romans 9:13, we read that, “Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.” The concept of divine hatred is an extremely important concept...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on August 31, 2025) As we began to see yesterday, Paul’s evangelistic zeal was very real and very appropriate. However, it was NOT a misplaced zeal that was somehow hoping that some people among his Jewish brethren who otherwise were bound for hell would turn around and embrace the...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on August 31, 2025) As we get back to our exposition of the Book of Romans, we find ourselves in the Ninth Chapter. This chapter begins with Paul’s exclamation of evangelistic zeal, where he says he could wish that he himself were accursed from God if it meant the...

by Elder David Crawford (preached on October 5, 2025) In this wonderful sermon by Elder David Crawford, we learn that our Savior was more than an ephemeral Spirit: He was flesh and bone. His disciples were able to touch Him, and all who did came away forever changed! Join us today as we explore this...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on September 17, 2025) As we continue in our exposition of the Book of Revelation, we come to Chapter 22 and the description of a “pure river of water of life” that proceeds out of the throne of God in heaven. Join us today as Elder Buddy Abernathy teaches us...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on June 18, 2025) Have you ever heard a sermon about the “Thousand Year Reign,” or the “Millennial Reign” of Christ? Most of the time, the focus of such messages is about some future physical reign of Christ here on earth. But is this really what is being taught in...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on June 4, 2025) As we approach the end of chapter 19 of Revelation, the scene before us is the final battle between God and evil.

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on May 7, 2025) In the last half of Revelation 19, John writes about the second coming of Christ. Most of the time when we read about the Second Coming in Scripture, we focus on the Resurrection of God’s children. However, in these verses, we see Jesus returning in judgment...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on April 16, 2025) In today’s sermon in our Revelation series, we find a “great voice” of “much people” praising God with complete unity, crying out “Alleluia”! The basis of their praise was “salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God.” Join us as we learn...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on April 2, 2025) In today’s sermon, we move into another section of the Book of Revelation, which we have entitled, “The Final Judgment.” Beginning here in chapter 18, and continuing through chapter 22, verse 5, we see the final overthrow of the wicked and the ultimate glorification of God’s...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on March 19, 2025) In the last sermon on Revelation Chapter 17, we learned that “Babylon” in the Bible, while a real historical place, here represents this wicked world system. This Babylonian world system is and has always been opposed to God and to His Kingdom on earth. Today, Elder...

by Elder Buddy Abernathy (preached on August 31, 2025) In this powerful sermon, Elder Buddy Abernathy begins by teaching us about the truth of God’s word and its authority in our lives. Then he turns to a particular topic that is mostly rejected by the world: biblical parenting. Please join us as we learn how...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on October 30, 2022) In the last post, we began looking at the third of our trinity of enemies: the flesh. The flesh is always with us, and it is against us! The “carnal mind,” we are told, is in a constant state of enmity against God. Join us...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on October 20, 2022) As we have already seen, there is a trinity of spiritual enemies of God’s people: the devil, the world, and the flesh. Having already dealt with the devil and the world, today we begin looking at the flesh. The flesh is ever present with us,...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached October 16, 2022) Today we conclude a message begun yesterday, regarding the world as our enemy. The philosophies of this world are diametrically opposed to the Kingdom of God, and we need to be aware of them and resist them. In fact, God says “beware” of these philosophies, for...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached 10/16/22) In the last posted sermon, we saw that the devil is our primary enemy. We learned his tactics and discovered biblical principles on how to resist him. Today, we begin looking at a second enemy of God’s people: the world. The world is against us, and especially so...

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on October 16, 2022) Back in 2022, I preached this sermon series on “Spiritual Warfare” at a time when I felt it was particularly needed. In light of recent events in our nation, it seems very appropriate to re-post this series. It is clear to me that we are...
