Does Jesus Love Unbelievers? (A Terrible Start to Evangelism)

Many people think that effective evangelism begins with proclaiming Jesus' love for sinners. But there's the question, and it's an important one: Has Jesus commanded us to tell unbelievers that He loves them? And when we say those words, do people understand that their most pressing need is to be saved from the wrath of God? When we tell someone that Jesus loves them, we are often encouraging them to think about Christ in ways that are not at all biblical. They may think of him loving them in the way that their mother or father loves them. Because most people do not understand love, if they believe that Jesus loves them, they will be unable to imagine him sending them to hell for their sins. In Matthew 7, when Jesus describes sending false converts to hell, he does not express his love toward them. He tells them He never knew them and condemns them for their love of lawlessness. Throughout scripture, even when Jesus shows kindness to unbelievers, he does not begin by expressing his love toward them. Instead, he helps them to understand that God's wrath is on the children of disobedience. So here's a question: When is it appropriate to tell someone that Jesus loves them?Thumbnail image by BunteAufnahmen on PixabayProduction of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Delivery from the Body of Death

After talking about the struggle between the two wills that remain in him after salvation, so he does the things that he wants to do. he reminds us of the only hope, God. That God through Christ is the one that delivers us from sin and not only at salvation. He is the one who delivers us from the body of death as we go through our lives and are tempted to sin. He is the one that breaks the power of sin in our lives, including by scourging us so that we receive the peaceable fruit of righteousness. He is ultimately the one who frees us from the body of death through the resurrection of the dead at glorification. After which, we will no longer have a body of death, because we will have an incorruptible body that cannot die. It is important to remember, it is God who starts our salvation, sanctifies us through the rest of our life and then glorifies us, so the to God alone belongs the glory.

What Sam Allberry’s Fall Tells You About Your Local Church

Christian celebrity culture gets rightly criticized for its worldliness, its elevation and celebration of men and their achievements, and its tendency to create apologetics for all types of unbiblical behaviors. But there is also a tendency to divorce celebrity culture from the culture of our local churches, its many congregants, and the pastors that lead them. So, in the wake of Sam Allberry's resignation, we thought it was worth taking the time to look at what Christian celebrity culture says about the rest of us, and the leaders we choose. Fundamentally, those who follow sound doctrine understand that sin is progressive by nature. So, if the "wordly" churches are tolerating sins among their leaders that are blatantly obvious to us, we have every reason to believe that there are sins, which seem much less offensive to us, but to which we are turning a blind eye. Celebrity culture exists because we desire to follow a man. That desire wars against our willingness to live and die for the truth. So let's start with a question: How does blindness come upon churches? And how do we open our eyes to the truth?Production of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Why are Gen Z Men are Converting to Roman Catholicism?

There's been a lot of talk in the past few years about how young men are leaving Protestant churches for the Roman Catholic Church. It's easy to forget that the Roman Catholic Church, like all other cults and false religions, uses carnal means and methods to cause those who are dead in their sins and trespasses to feel as if they are spiritually alive unto God. And because the RCC has been practicing and perfecting these techniques for over a thousand years, it is easy for people to forget that they are a corrupt institution through and through. In this episode, we want to focus on the many carnal means and techniques that the Roman Catholic Church uses to make its followers feel spiritual. Because the carnal man does not believe in an invisible God they give him a man who sits on a throne and wears a robe and a mitre and that is something the carnal man can believe in. Because the carnal man cannot imagine the glory of God they have built cathedrals so that a man can see the architecture and hear and feel the music and believe in the strength of man's hand instead of having to believe in The Invisible God. Because they cannot believe in the invisible work of prayer, they give you beads to hold in your hand and set prayers to pray over and over to make you feel spiritual. Instead of being able to approach God or their brothers and sisters in Christ and confess our sins they set up a confessional where you confess before a priest or an icon. Because they cannot believe in the spiritual nature of the church as the mother of us all, they give you Mary to worship as a mother, because people cannot believe that God is their father they tell them to call men t

Serve in the Newness of the Spirit

After describing the picture of slavery to sin compared to slavery to God, Paul is now going to use the picture of marriage specifically regarding the Jews. When they left Egypt, they were married to Christ in Exodus 24 when they swore that they would do whatever He told them to do and that marriage was governed by the law, whatever You say, we will do. Because it was governed by the law, for it to go away, they must die to marry another. According to the law of marriage, without committing sin worthy of death, the only way out of a marriage is through death. In death, that marriage is done away with and you have no responsibility to do what your dead husband commanded. For them to escape the curse which just produced sin, whatever You say we will do, is to die, then that relationship ends. To be saved, we must first stop thinking that whatever God says, we will do because that is works based righteousness and still being under that relationship means you are still condemned. You must die to your relationship with the law, so that you can be in the Spirit not just the Jews but also the Gentiles.

Arranged Marriage, Courtship, or Dating? What does the Bible Say?

There has been a big shift in America in how men and women decide to get married. In early America, parents had a very high level of authority and responsibility over who their children married. This was partly driven by economic and social factors, where the parents were more concerned about continuing the family line and ensuring that their children and grandchildren would not starve to death than whether the two getting married were emotionally compatible with one another. As time went on and America became wealthier, engagement and marriage became less about financial stability and more of a courtship arrangement. The parents were not arranging the marriages as much as they were overseeing the interests of their children. As we lost our understanding of a biblical worldview, and focused on pleasure rather than duty and obligation, the marriage process has become more about the emotional and physical response to the relationship rather than establishing a productive home where both could safely establish their future. And while some may disagree, we would argue strongly that this modern approach to marriage has failed dramatically. In response, many are choosing to never get married or cohabitating for years, but behaving as if they are married to see if the emotions last, but none of this solves the underlying problems. For the last fifty years, about half of marriages end in divorce, people are not happier in their relationships and their families, and marriage rates have declined significantly. So let's start off with a question: why is dating such a terrible way to establish marriages?Thumbnail image by Jack Pearce under CC BY-SA 2.0Production of

The Gift of God

In this week's passage, Paul continues the theme that those who are saved are slaves of righteousness. He points out that when you were a slave of sin, you produced fruit that you are now ashamed of. As a slave of righteousness, you will still produce fruit. Not fruit that you would later be ashamed of, but fruit that produces holiness. Slavery to sin produces death. Slavery to righteousness produces holiness. Those who are slaves of God do not received eternal death, instead they receive the gift of eternal life.
