2021 Fellowship Meeting. Pastor David Wise discusses our fellowship in the church. When we have fellowship one with another in the church, we actually have fellowship with Jesus Christ himself when we meet together to fellowship under the name of the Lord.

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Lic. Morgan Sims rightly divides the new birth in scripture. Men are born again by the immediate, direct work of the Holy Spirit upon the heart of the dead, alien sinner. After that work of the new birth, when we believe the gospel, there is a special seal of approval that God […]

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Elder Larry Wise considers the “much more’s” of the Bible. We have been given much more in Jesus Christ. Sin abounded in this world and in our lives, but grace did much more abound. We have been given grace in eternal salvation, but we also receive more grace here in our lives […]

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Lic. Ben Shettles considers Jesus Christ as the Rock of our salvation. Jesus did not offer salvation to the sinner, but Jesus Christ fully saved us on the cross. Now, we trust in Jesus for our protection from this world as our Rock and Defender.

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Elder David Pyles considers types of Jesus Christ in Moses and Joshua. Moses interceded for the people asking forgiveness for their sins to protect them from God’s consuming wrath. We see Joshua as a type of Jesus Christ and the destruction of Jericho by Joshua as a type of the end of […]

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Elder Joe Nettles considers Moses and Joshua in the tabernacle in the aftermath of Israel’s sin with the golden calf. We can see Moses as the Law as insufficient to save man because of our failure to keep God’s law. But then we see Jesus in Joshua who departed not out of […]

2021 Fellowship Meeting. Elder Tony Lester gives an account of Jesus’ healing of the woman with the issue of blood and then of Jairus’ daughter. We need to trust in Jesus for our healing of diseases in this life and keep faith in Christ to help us in all our needs and distresses.

It is not easy to stand up for our convictions in an environment where ungodliness is accepted, to be the only one serving God in a given situation. We are called to stand out in a crowd by remaining devoted to God, regardless of how everyone around us might be caving to governmental or societal […]

Why did God call out the assembly of the church? What is the primary purpose of the Lord’s church? Our primary purpose is to glorify God in all we say and do. God chose out a people to salvation for the praise of the glory of his grace. Now that we have been saved by […]

As with many biblical topics, not every time we see “the church” in scripture is it describing the same thing. There are primarily 3 dimensions of the church presented in scripture. First, the global invisible elect family of God called out in the new birth. Second, the visible church militant of disciples who have followed […]

In the midst of a severe storm, we are prone to act like the disciples and get afraid and to question God and even to question if Jesus even cares for us. In the midst of the storms of this life, we have to remember the promise of God in faith. Jesus has promised us […]

As we begin a series examining the church, first we must understand what the church actually is. The church is not just some event we attend once a week and then go our separate way and then do it all again next week. The church is not something we do once a week, but the […]

Visiting minister Elder Tony Lester gives an encouraging message to hope in Jesus Christ. The basis of our hope is in God’s promise who cannot lie, who by two immutable things that God cannot lie, he confirmed his promise by an oath to Abraham. In like manner, we trust in the promise of God, knowing […]

Visiting speaker Lic. John Pyles examines a tale of two churches in the city of Philadelphia – the church of God in Philadelphia in contrast to the synagogue of Satan in the same city. Even in the midst of the hour of temptation, the Philadelphian church would still be kept as safe and sound because […]

Message delivered by Elder David Wise at Laodicea PBC in Thaxton, MS on 1/31/2021.  The only source of glory for the child of God should be in the cross of Jesus Christ. The cross is the only means of our eternal salvation. We did not do anything to add to or take away from Jesus’ […]

We see a great example in the life of Esther of the virtuous woman who displays a meek and quiet spirit. Esther did not seek to try to bring attention to herself; on the contrary, she deflected the attention. God saw fit to exalt Esther for “such a time as this” due to her humble, […]

Message delivered by Elder David Wise at Tyler PBC in Tyler, TX on 1/24/2021. All of Christianity hinges on one event – the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It’s because Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead that we have a hope of eternal life and a hope of the resurrection of the dead. […]

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. […]
