  • Dear David,

    Hello friends. It is certainly a busy time of year with all of the family events and other functions going on. However, we are still working to make the site better and better. We have added a new section as of the last newsletter and we are working on another big project behind the scenes which we will announce soon. Please pray for us that we will be able to get the material on the site soon.

    May the Lord Bless You.


    Drew Ray

     

    Questions and Answers
     

    You got questions we got answers. The best we can tell this must be the most popular section on the site and rightfully so. Maybe you have wondered about the glorified body before, or should we worship on the Sabbath, or women speaking in Church? These answers and more are awaiting you. Just click the link below.

     

    Typology in the Scriptures
     

    NEW SECTION!!!! That's right another tool for your Bible study. Have you ever come up on a scripture in the Bible where God compares a spiritual thing to an earthly thing? This section will deal with this as well as types of Christ. It is searchable much the same way as the Online Sermons. I highly recommend that you check out this section on a regular basis.

     

    Audio Sermons
     

    We have added several new sermons. Some of the sermons will be convicting while others will be more along the lines of Bible teaching. I highly recommend Pastor Reagan's sermons on "The Righteousness of God" and "He Maketh No Mistake." In addition to this we have put a sermon up from J. Frank Norris. We have some other audio sermons from preachers of the past and we plan on putting them up with a page of information on these great men of God. Please click below to be challenged and taught from the word of God.

     

    Sunday School Outlines
     

    We have Sunday School outlines for much of the Old Testament. Pastor Reagan prepares these each week for the upcoming lessons. Even if you are not a Sunday School teacher you will benefit greatly from these outlines.

     

    Thoughts and Meditations
     

    Power of Preaching - E. M. Bounds, the author of Power Through Prayer wrote the following on the power of the Word of God in preaching: "The power of preaching lies in the fact that it sows the life- giving, imperishable seed of God's Word. Only the Word of God has this life-giving energy; beautiful thoughts, fine sentiments, striking and true statements of philosophy, poetry, or genius have no life of God in them. The preacher may gain reputation, popularity, influence by these, but the power to quicken and convict consciences, to perfect holiness, and colonize heaven; to do effectively what God designs the preacher to do, will depend on his trueness to God's Word. The more simply and earnestly the preacher becomes the mouthpiece of God, the more diligently he feeds on the Word of God by meditation and prayer, and gives it out as the mother gives out her life to her babe, the more will his legitimate power be enhanced." - from E. M. Bounds by Darrel D. King (p.109).

    Limits to Hospitality - Andrew Connaster was a preacher in Sevier County, Tennessee, in the first half of the nineteenth century. "He was pastor of Alder Branch and other churches. In physical build he was raw-boned, muscular and sinewy, a man of rare physical strength and endurance. Before his conversion, according to the custom of his day and neighborhood, he drank some, and would 'treat' his associates and receive 'treats' in return, on special occasions. After his conversion, even after he had become a preacher and 'had preached his third sermon,' I was told, seven of his companions undertook to get him to drink with them and to 'treat' in the old-time way. "To prove his hospitality and to show that he was not 'stingy,' he yielded to their solicitations and furnished the 'treats.' But they were not satisfied; they wanted him to drink..and undertook to force him. Thinking he had gone far enough on the 'two- mile' road with his persecutors, or had taken enough of their abuse to satisfy the law of 'non-resistance to evil,' instead of turning the other cheek to the smiters, with his good fist he landed blows on the cheeks of about seven of his assailants, knocking them down as fast as they approached him. After that they 'let him alone,' the argument of hard knocks proving effective where the gentle means of moral suasion had proved a failure." -from Scetches of Tennessee's Pioneer Baptist Preachers by J. J. Burnett (p.120).

     

    Launch Out! - "But out faith makes us abundant in good works. May I say to you, if you are doing all you possibly can for Christ, endeavor to do yet more? I believe a Christian man is generally right when he is doing more than he can; and when he goes still further beyond that point, he will be even more nearly right. There are scarcely any bounds to the possibilities of our service...We need, like the apostles, to launch out into the deep, or our nets will never enclose a great multitude of fishes. If we had but the pluck to come out of our hiding-places, and face the foe, we should soon achieve immense success. We need far more faith in the Holy Ghost. He will bless us if we cast ourselves entirely upon Him." -from An All-Round Ministry by C. H. Spurgeon (p.22).
