What are the righteous supposed to do when we see the foundations of truth crumbling and being destroyed around us? We are not to run away, retreat, and flee as a bird to our mountain. No, the righteous should be bold and strong in the midst of an ungodly culture. We trust in God, knowing […]

It’s an alarming trend in Christianity today, that the church is ever looking more and more like the world, in some cases almost indistinguishable from the world. The church of God is called to be the salt of the earth and a city set on a hill. We are called to stand out in this […]

We see in the life of Queen Esther how God is oftentimes working behind the scenes in our lives, even when we don’t know how or what God is up to. Every day our actions impact the lives of others, and we never know to what degree we are put in positions to bless others. […]

Our God makes all things new. God’s mercies and compassion are new unto his people every morning. It’s a great blessing to know that we wake up every day with a new, fresh day with a blank slate for God to bless us in. Sometimes we might feel as if we are too messed up […]

When we consider eternal salvation, as Primitive Baptists, we take Jesus at his word on the cross when he declared “It Is Finished”. What then did Jesus actually finish on the cross? Did he just do his part of salvation, and now he’s waiting and dependent upon the sinner to believe to actually be fully […]

Visiting Minister Elder Buddy Abernathy identifies the difference between fellowship with God in our lives of discipleship and our relationship as children of God. It’s true that some children do not act as honorable to their parents as they ought, but that does not mean they cease to be children. When we as the children […]

Message delivered by Elder David Wise at Tyler PBC in Tyler, TX on 12/20/2020. When we consider the birth of Jesus, it’s a divine mystery how that little bitty, normal-looking child was actually God manifest in the flesh – both the Son of man and the Son of God. The titles of Jesus in this […]

Blessed (happy) is the man who fear the Lord. A fear and reverence of God is an evidence of regeneration, an evidence that we are blessed to be among God’s elect. But we can experience greater blessings in Zion and in the church when we live with a mental reverence and fear of God. Our […]

When we consider the magnitude and majesty of our God that knows everything and is everywhere, it is absolutely astounding that our God would think on us at all. God has known us from our conception in our mother’s womb and there is no where in our life where God is not with us and […]

We are totally dependent upon the Lord for success in any matter, but especially in building a godly house – both in our families and in our churches. After laying the foundation of the Lord in the home, we then consider the basic building block of both families and churches – our children. Children are […]

Visiting Minister Bro. John Morgan Owens guides a river cruise through the many references to water in the scriptures. Beginning in Genesis and all throughout the scriptures, water is always presented to point us to Jesus Christ our life-giving substance to nourish us from thirst.

We need to follow the pattern of Habakkuk’s prayer for revival and mercy. In the midst of a time when God’s people were about to suffering severe judgment at the hand of the Chaldeans for their disobedience of God, Habakkuk was not discouraged, but he prayed for God to revive his work in the midst […]

When God’s people go astray, the Lord as our Loving Father sends chastising judgment to bring us to repentance. If we are suffering spiritual drought in our churches among God’s people, what is the remedy for that dry state? God gives us the recipe for revival – humility, prayer of confession, and repentance changing our […]

God is so big, powerful, majestic, and beautiful we cannot even comprehend Him. His ways and His thoughts are so much higher than our thoughts and ways, we cannot even begin to understand the mystery of God’s will. When we consider the majesty of our God, how is it even possible that God would even […]

God told his people, Israel, in the Old Testament hundreds of years before they departed from the word of God, what would be the judgment for their sins. When God’s people did sin, and God sent drought, locusts, and pestilence. What remedy is there from this judgment of God? The Lord gave his people the […]

We have been given eternal life solely by the work of Jesus Christ on the cross and salvation by sovereign grace. In addition to that, though we can also experience “life eternal” here in our lives by knowing Jesus Christ, following his commandments, loving God, and loving others. In our daily walk of discipleship, we […]

We can get so busy in this world, never stopping to be still, relax, and commune personally with God. We must spend time in private, personal, closet devotion, speaking to the Lord as our friend. It’s vital for our spiritual growth and stability for us to spend time personally in private with the Lord, to […]

We are wholly dependent upon the Holy Spirit in every action of our lives. Therefore, we need to be vigilant to “walk in the Spirit” and forsake the lusts of the flesh. We are dependent upon the Spirit to worship, to preach, to pray, or even to obey God at all. We need to pray […]

In the midst of calamity and distress, we find protection and safety and refuge in our God. We can get very nervous, afraid, and anxious from the world around us but instead we need to “be still” (relax, take a deep breath, stop moving, be still) and remember that God is still God, the Lord […]

When we were put “In Christ”, then we were also placed “In Love” because Jesus Christ is Love. We consider the great love wherewith God has loved us, and we are “in love” in Jesus Christ. But then, it’s incumbent upon us to love others as Christ has loved us – for us to walk […]
