A more excellent name
Exposition of the Book of Hebrews Part 1. The book of Hebrews is shrouded in a bit of mystery as to who its author is.

The tipping point
Take a trip back in time, before there were computers or TV’s. Before you could “buy” something with a swipe of a plastic card (look at me, no one swipes cards anymore…) you had to have the physical cash to do a transaction, or you had to write a cheque (not a misspelling). We didn’tContinue reading “The tipping point”
A Jewel Factory

BAPTIST Distinctives T
Baptist Distinctives Leason 8T is for Two Offices In a Church – Bishop and Deacon. The Bible only records two offices in the church. A bishop – also called an Elder or a pastor – and a Deacon – which are both ministers or servants. The members of a church are brothers and sisters, and none is higher than another although there is a certain amount of authority and honor given to these two offices and there are requirements for the MEN who hold these offices. The Bible does not teach a hierarchy of priest who control a church. We do not believe in the office of a Pope, or an office of a cardinal.
