When had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.(Hebrews 1:3). “Majesty” signifies such greatness as makes one to be honoured of all and preferred above all. “The right hand” speaks of power and honour. “On high” means“the highest height,” the most elevated exaltation that could be conceived […]

DOCTRINE VS SAVING FAITH         I have heard people say, “Don’t preach doctrine to me.”  I say, “Preach sound doctrine to me!” There is no salvation without the preaching and hearing of true doctrine.  No one can believe on Christ until they have heard and believed the truth about Christ.  However, salvation […]

Will You Help Me? Yes, as your pastor, I desperately need your help. I’m not asking for something which is unimportant or optional, but something which is essential to the spiritual well-being of ourselves, our children and all who frequent this assembly.
