Proverbs of Solomon – Proverbs 20:12

Apr 4, 2019 | Wednesday

  I feel like I owe you an apology, but the reality is – I don’t. I guess it’s just the Canadian in me. An apology for what, some of you might ask? For being unable to leave verse 12.   Last week’s lesson should have been sufficient to prove Solomon’s point –...

That Ye Should Show Forth the Lord’s Praises – I Peter 2:9-10

Apr 1, 2019 | Sunday Evening

  A month ago, when we first approached this scripture, I didn’t intend for it to become a series. I simply wanted to teach a lesson on the priesthood of the believer. But as we have seen, that is only one of the blessed privileges which the Lord has given to His...

The Incalculable Blessing of Mercy – I Peter 2:9-10

Mar 31, 2019 | Sunday Morning

  Over the years, one of the joys of Family Camp has been the arrival of an annual meteor shower. Several times, Judy and I walked to the top of the hill above camp, laid down on our backs, turned off our flash lights and watched the streaks of light flashing across...

Mar 28, 2019 | This Sunday in Baptist History

Abraham Marshall followed his father in becoming the pastor of the Kiokee Baptist church in north east Georgia. After more than forty years of bachelorhood, Abraham determined that the Lord wanted him to marry, providing him with someone “to divide the sorrows...

Proverbs of Solomon – Proverbs 20:12

Mar 28, 2019 | Wednesday

  Verse 12 encourages me to do something which I’ve always delighted to do. I love to take my limited knowledge of science to try to bring glory to our Creator, the Lord Jesus. Perhaps I am not really qualified to teach this lesson – at least from the scientific...

February 2019

Mar 24, 2019 | Timothy Parrow

February seems to have been a difficult month for us here at the mission in Stillwater. Bro. Dick Gaches hurt his knee severely and has not been able to take an active part in our services for about a month now. He went to the surgery center for surgery on his leg,...

The Blessing of Light – I Peter 2:9-10

Mar 24, 2019 | Sunday Morning

  No matter what the world throws at us, to be a Christian, and to live the life of a Christian, far surpasses any earthly opportunity or possibility. Those Christians being slaughtered by Muslims in Africa and Asia may live short, painful and fearful lives, but they...

Mar 21, 2019 | This Sunday in Baptist History

  On this day (March 24) 1809 Grover Comstock was born in Rochester, New York. Although he was the son of a Baptist preacher, he was not converted until after he had become a successful lawyer. In 1831 a blessed rival swept through Rochester and Comstock along with...

The Proverbs of Solomon – Proverbs 20:9

Mar 21, 2019 | Wednesday

  In asking the Lord for a text for this evening, I kept coming back to verse 9. But this lends itself to a gospel message more fitting for a Sunday morning, and you are all familiar with the gospel. So let’s approach this a little differently. Let’s pretend that I...

The Blessing of the Peculiar People – I Peter 2:9-10

Mar 17, 2019 | Sunday Morning

  In my last 2 messages, I have been trying to consider some of the blessed privileges we have as Christians. Peter first mentions unbelievers – the “disobedient” – and then compares them to God’s people. “But YE are a chosen generation, a royal...
