Fellowship Bible Church Sermons

Judge not!

July 7, 2021 PM, Matthew 7:1-2.The kind of judgment you use will eventually reflect back onto yourself. God sees to it in His divine justice when He judges the living and the dead (2 Timothy 4:1) that He will take into account how we have judged others. God will judge His people (Heb. 10:30). Revelation 20:12-13 says that God will judge each one according to his works.

The Lord’s Table: A Believer’s Treasure is Jesus Christ

July 4, 2021 PM, 2 Corinthians 4:1-15.In this message we are welcomed with missionary speaker Nathan Schrock who leads our study prior to sharing the Lord's table. In this message, we study the gospel of Christ is a treasure (in earth and vessels) to a believer, as expressed by the apostle Paul. We are separated from God because of His holiness and due to the sinfulness of mankind we are cut off from him. There is a separation (spiritual death) and because of it we cannot be in communion with God. But Jesus Christ through His mercy and love reconciled us to Him.
Our Scripture reading was found in Isaiah 65:1-25.

God’s Wisdom, Holiness, and Majesty

July 4, 2021 AM, Romans 11:33-12:1.In this message we welcome missionary speaker Nathan Schrock. He turned our attention to the holiness, majesty, and wisdom of God as declared by the apostle Paul.
Our Scripture reading was in Isaiah 64:1-12.

Book of Ezra, Background and Setting Explained

June 30, 2021 PM, Ezra.In tonight's message pastoral intern Jansen Lorch leads our new study in the book of Ezra. We begin studying the background and setting of this book where we see Israel exiting the Babylonian captivity.

Earthly Treasures, Part 3

June 27, 2021 PM, Matthew 6:25-34.Note that the Lord is dealing with internal matters of religion—how
we do benevolence and why we do it; He speaks of why we pray
and fast, not for men, but for God. The “how” of these religious
acts is driven by the why to be God-centered instead of mancentered. We are challenged to point our hearts heavenward (19-
21), to be transformed/illuminated from the inside (22-23), and to
serve God instead of worldly wealth (24). Finally in chapter 6, Jesus
deals with worry, which is another internal matter that reveals a
lot of what we are truly “made of.”
Our Scripture reading was found in Isaiah 63:1-19.

Living According to Sound Doctrine, Part 1

June 27, 2021 AM, Titus 2:1-5.Paul instructs Titus as to how he is to teach sound doctrine. You might imagine that this describes the ministry Titus is to have directly to the churches in Crete, as if he is planning to visit each one and do some preaching and teaching. That is not out of the realm of possibility, but there is another option. Paul could well be telling Titus how to train the elders he was appointing in the churches. He was to teach them so that they in turn could pass this sound doctrine to their churches. This would multiply Titus’s efforts so that he could reach more churches. In this scenario, he would be following the same pattern as Paul taught Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:2.
Our Scripture reading was found in Isaiah 62:1-12.

Critical Race Theory, Part 3

June 27, 2021 SS, Various.There is hardly a need at the present time to justify a Christian thinking through the CRT / wokeness mess that is currently all the rage. We have to analyze it from a Biblical standpoint, and recognize the danger of this pre-planned assault not only on Christian values, but on the principles that have underpinned our Republic for hundreds of years. I knew it was past time to address the issue when I got these questions through our website: 1) Is Fellowship Bible Church (FBC) affiliated with the New Apostolic Reformation (modern day apostles/prophets, 7 mountain mandate)? ? The Seven Mountain Mandate is a post-millennial, Pentecostal/charismatic dominion theology where the church is supposed to take over the pillars of society and then once the kingdom is established on earth, then Christ will return. 2) Is FBC a "woke" church? Do you espouse Critical Race Theory? Absolutely not. FBC is not woke, and we reject CRT. We are going to look at why we do that in these notes.

Our Scripture reading was found in Isaiah 61:1-11.
