The High Priest of the New Covenant

Jim Butler — Fri, 07 May 2010 00:34:45 +0000

The Lord Jesus was instituted as High Priest by a divine oath, engages in an unchangeable priesthood, saves to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, and is perfectly fitted for the office of High Priest.

The Jerusalem Leaders’ Assessment of Paul

Jim Butler — Sat, 01 May 2010 01:37:44 +0000

The Apostle Paul received his apostolic commission and his gospel from Christ the Lord. He did not require the affirmation of men. He does relate what the Jerusalem leaders thought of him in order to comfort the churches and silence the Judaizers.

The Salvation of an Ethiopian Eunuch

Jim Butler — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 02:32:18 +0000

In Acts 8, the prophecy of Isaiah is both explained as it relates to Jesus and fulfilled as a eunuch is brought nigh through the blood of Christ.

The Christ-Centered Orientation of the New Man

Jim Butler — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 02:49:56 +0000

The new man is not a moralist. He is defined by his belief in the gospel which results in his being governed by the peace of God, his devotion to the word of Christ, and his desire to bring glory to Christ in all areas of thought and life.

Conduct Becoming a New Man

Jim Butler — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:35:58 +0000

The new man in Christ Jesus is to put on the virtues that are consistent with his Lord. He is to exercise forbearance and forgiveness toward those in the church. And above all, he is to put on love.

Conduct Unbecoming a New Man

Jim Butler — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 01:43:21 +0000

The Apostle Paul calls on the Colossians to put off vice and put on virtue. The Christian can only do this because he has been made alive by the power of God through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Confessional Study

Cam Porter — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 20:41:35 +0000

Every Lord’s Day at 9:30am, prior to the Morning Worship Service, we either engage in a study of our Reformed Confession, The London Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689, or we have an hour of prayer. In October and December we will be studying the confession in more of a “topical approach” to each chapter, focusing in on important doctrinal and theological, or practical, topics from the content of the confessional statements. In November we will return to prayer meetings prior to each morning service.

Wednesday Night Bible Study

Cam Porter — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 20:07:39 +0000

Currently working through the book of Hebrews, and rejoicing in the supremacy, sufficiency, and perfection of Jesus Christ! Come join us Wednesdays at 7:30pm in the fellowship hall, or return here to view notes and/or audio files of the studies.

Of Pigheadedness, Babylonians, and Covenant Enforcement

Cam Porter — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 03:52:12 +0000

The resolute severity of the Covenant Lord in bringing recompense for the violation of His righteous precepts. Our sovereign Lord, by divine mastery, enlarged the empire of Babylon and guided it to sack the southern kingdom of Judah as a holy execution of Covenantal Justice.
