by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 11/27/22) Today, we continue looking at Jesus as our “better” High Priest. The earthly priests had certain requirements, all of which Christ met and exceeded. And He was NOT a priest after the Levitical order, but after the order of Melchizedek. Join us as we begin to see…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 11/27/22) As we continue looking at the book of Hebrews, we come to chapter five, which begins the “heart” of the letter. From about this chapter through chapter ten, we deal with the theme of Jesus Christ as our “Great High Priest.” Today, we begin to see how…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 11/20/22) Yesterday we began to look at Hebrews 4:12, which speaks of the “word of God.” We saw that the context demands that we understand this to mean the Living Word of God, Jesus Christ Himself! Today, we conclude this message, and see that the fact that our…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 11/20/22) In Hebrews 4:12, we read about the “word of God” that is “quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword.” Many people misinterpret this passage as referring to the written or preached word of God. In reality, this is a glorious reference to the Living Word…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 10/23/22) Today’s message is the second half of a sermon about “gospel rest.” There is no doubt from Scripture that Christ paid the debt for every single one of His elect children; however, not all those children find the “rest” that they need so badly! Many try to…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 10/23/22) In this sermon, we see that there is only one way that a child of God can find any rest in this world: by believing the true gospel message! The true gospel tells us that Jesus Christ paid for our sins, and that we can rest in…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 10-10-22) In the last post, we began looking at Moses and Christ, and were beginning to see how much better Christ is than Moses! Today, we continue looking at this idea of Christ as “better”, and ultimately see that because He is better, we are “His house” –…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 10-10-22) One of the prevalent themes of the Book of Hebrews can be summed up in one word: “better.” Christ is better than the angels, the new covenant is better than the old, etc. In today’s message, the word “better” does not appear, but the sentiment certainly does!…
by Bro. Kenneth Nowell (preached on 9/18/22) In today’s message, Bro. Kenneth Nowell, who has been exercising a preaching gift under the authority of Piney Grove Primitive Baptist Church in Headland, Alabama, brings an encouraging sermon about faith and faithfulness. Although Jesus tells us in Matthew 16 that the “gates of hell” will not prevail…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 6/14/2020) In the last post, we shared the first half of a sermon about Abraham, and the cities near which he pitched his tents. Remember that he was a wanderer who never built any permanent cities, but rather dwelt in tents. In today’s message, which is the second…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on 6/14/2020) Abraham was a wanderer who never built any permanent cities, but rather dwelt in tents. But as he moved around the Middle East, he often encamped near some larger cities. In this message, the first half of which we post today, Pastor Chris McCool begins to expound…
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached 11/29/2015) Abraham never built cities, but lived a nomadic life dwelling only in tents. In this sermon, we take a look at the places where Abraham pitched his tents. Depending on the location, Abraham received blessings, or succumbed to temptation. Brethren, it is important where we pitch our tents…
