Whoever Believes In Him

Posted on June 7, 2012 Written by PreacherNorm 2 Comments

 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

Every time I have heard a denominational preacher teach the false doctrine of “faith only” salvation, they always quote John 3:16 as their proof text. Even though the verse doesn’t say, “whoever [only] believes in Him,” that is how they use it. Not only do they insert a “faith only” definition where the verse doesn’t say it, they are also divorcing this beautiful statement of God’s love for us from its immediate context. Wouldn’t it make sense to define the term “believes in Him” according to the illustration that Christ had just given? Of course it would! [Read more…]

"Theistic Evolution" – Irreconcilable Contradiction

Posted on June 5, 2010 Written by PreacherNorm Leave a Comment

The book of Genesis is a truly remarkable book. It is the foundational book for many fundamental biblical doctrines. Without Genesis such glorious biblical messages as justification, redemption, sanctification, man’s relationship to God and man’s need of a Savior, would all be obscure and unintelligible. It gives us the first glimpse of hope in the face of death and sin (Gen. 3:15) and begins the unfolding of God’s plan for man’s redemption. It is no wonder that it is the most quoted book throughout the rest of the Bible.

Be Ye Separate!

We believe and teach that participation in “Union” worship services with denominations is unscriptural and therefore not permissible. (1 Pet 2:9; 2 Cor 6:14-18)

Many may read this statement and wonder, “What are ‘Union’ worship services?” It typically refers to a joint meeting of various denominations to “worship” together. Members of faithful congregations of the Lord’s church have avoided such meetings for several reasons. However, in more recent times, liberal congregations have made it their practice to openly participate, and even encourage, such participation with denominations. In this article I want to give a few of the reasons for our refusal to participate in such meetings.

The Scriptural Mode of Baptism

Posted on May 14, 2010 Written by PreacherNorm Leave a Comment

We believe and teach that scriptural baptism is immersion for the remission of sins, and is in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost/Spirit.  (Act 8:35-38; Mat 28:19).

In the last article from our doctrinal statement we established, from Scripture, the essentiality of baptism to salvation. However, there are many who believe that the command to be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38) can be satisfied by the mode of sprinkling or pouring. There are also those who believe that the biblical baptism necessary for salvation does not involve any physical element at all and is completely an act of the Holy Spirit. They believe that it is Holy Spirit baptism that is necessary for salvation. By clarifying the biblical mode of baptism we will know for certain what God is commanding of us when he says that we must be baptized to be forgiven of our sins.
