The Psalms - Psalm 100

Old Hundredth

by Rev. Jim Jester

November 23, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Isaiah 42:10-12

Psalm 100 serves as a conclusion (or doxology) to the royal psalms. The well-known metrical tune used in churches since the sixteenth century called, “Old Hundredth,” is often used as a conclusion at some point in the church service. It begins, “Praise God from whom all blessings flow.” Of all the psalms in the collection this rises to the highest pitch of gladness.

The subscript calls it, “A Psalm for Thanksgiving.” This was a hymn of procession, sung by pilgrims as they approached the gates of the temple. It likely was sung at the time of the giving of the thank offering in the temple. The term “thank offering” may also be translated “thanksgiving” or “praise.”

Reference Scripture:  1 John 3:12

“And wherefore slew he him?”

An assassin(s) killed Charlie Kirk, father of two children and CEO of Turning Point USA! Charlie Kirk fell in the middle of the day before an assembly of better than 3000 people on the campus at Utah Valley University. Charlie’s security team and the campus police were frustrated at being undermanned, unable to secure the perimeter against a trained sniper(s)! [September 10th, 2025] ...

When is the last time we saw this Judgment of our God applied in our War Emergency Powers courts?  Has that even occurred in our lifetimes? Who now wants Executions without God’s safeguards for the guiltless?!!! 

Did American Pulpits stop preaching “all the counsel of God”? [Acts 20: 27] Who was the 1st Martyr killed for his Faith? Do we know he was killed for his Faith? When was the 1st Murder in Adam? (Genesis 4:8). Did a child of the Devil slay a child of Adam?

Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 11:4

What gospel was preached by Jesus and His apostles and disciples? Were there different gospels preached when the church began? Did they preach the Calvinistic gospel, or the Arminian gospel, or the gospel of the kingdom? There wasn’t any Calvinistic or Arminian gospel when the church began; these gospels came many years later (around the 1500s). Calvinism came first followed by the Arminian which was a rebuttal of Calvinism by Dutch Reformed theologian in the late 16th century, Arminius. But does it make any difference today which one is preached?

The gospel began to be changed in America, from its beginning fifty years before the colonies’ Declaration of Independence till now, from Calvinism to Arminianism. Arminianism has grown until it eventually passed Calvinism in the twentieth century. And now it is practically all that one hears in churches, on television or radio broadcasts or on the internet. What is the difference between the two gospels?

The Psalms - Psalm 99

Psalm 99.mp3
The Holy God

by Rev. James Jester

November 2, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Isaiah 6:1-3

Psalm 99 is a triple proclamation of God’s holiness, as Isaiah would do at a later date, and as we read: “Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts”(Isa. 6:3). The two divisions of the psalm (v. 1-5, 6-9) both end in the refrain exhorting the worshippers to exalt the God who is holy (v. 5, 9). This psalm is a call to praise God because of the glories (and blessings) of His Kingdom among men (Adamkind). It is a song of praise describing Christ’s reign.

From Healthcare to Sickcare

How Rockefeller and Carnegie Rewired Modern Medicine and Why It Still Affects You Today 

By Harald Zieger 

October 26, 2025 

Few systems are more influential — or more taken for granted — than modern medicine. Most of us grew up believing that the medical system has always been scientific, trustworthy, and built to help us heal. But the truth is more complicated.

In the early 1900s, two of the most influential figures in American history — John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie — played a pivotal role in reshaping medicine. 

This transformation continues to impact how we’re diagnosed, treated, and even taught to think about health today. This isn’t about conspiracy — it’s about following the money, the motives, and the long-term impact of decisions made over a century ago. 

Baptist Churches - Part 2

Scripture Reading: Revelation 18:4

The first part of this message speaks to how Zionism was created as a replacement of Judaism in an effort to counter the "hatred" that Christian nations had for them, so in the 1800's the Zionists changed the definition of a Jew to that of a nationality. They turned it into Jewish nationalism , which means they needed to create a language, a flag and a specific piece of land to call a country. The second part of this message talks about how the Three Great Awakenings were instrumental in changing the nation's churches, moving away from the original gospel of who the promises of God were intended for, creating many denominations, and weakening, if not destroying, the church.

The Psalms - Psalm 97

Psalm 97.mp3
The Lord of All the Earth

by Rev. Jim Jester

October 5, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Hebrews 1:1-4

Psalm 97 continues in the theme and tone of the previous psalms. It uses phrases found in other psalms and other Old Testament passages.

J. M. Boice has commented, “Psalms 96, 97, 98 each hail God’s coming as the world’s King. But psalms 96, 98 soar with delight at what is in store for the world when Jesus returns, while in Psalm 97 the frightening and awesome side of God’s kingly rule is emphasized.”

The psalmist celebrates the Lord’s dominion over nations and nature, describes its effect on foes and friends, and then encourages the latter.

The Tree

The Tree in the Garden.mp3
“They took him down from the tree”

By: Walter Giddings

September 28, 2025

Featured Scripture: Acts 13:39 

(John 18:1-2).  There was a location in the garden.  Judas knew “the place”.

What was this place?  Was this place in a garden? Did this place have a name? Golgotha” the Hebrew name for “the place of a skull”.

“The place, which is called Calvary”  If Golgotha and Calvary are “the place” where Jesus and his apostles “ofttimes resorted thither”, is then “the place” where Jesus prayed three times, in agony, to sweat, as it were, drops of blood?! Could it be that “the place” that Judas knew, to where Jesus and the disciples “ofttimes” returned, was “the place” which was the very site of Christ’s Crucifixion?

Baptist Churches

by Pastor Don Elmore

Part 1:  Pastor Elmore goes into the historical origins of the Baptist Church; from its inception in the 1600's and shows the changes from Calvinist to Arminianism. This is the first of two sermons that will tell the brief story of his church life before he was a preacher. It covers about the first 40 years of his existence here on earth and tells of his search for the truth of what the Bible teaches.

Part 2: The first part of this message speaks to how Zionism was created as a replacement of Judaism in an effort to counter the "hatred" that Christian nations had for them, so in the 1800's the Zionists changed the definition of a Jew to that of a nationality. They turned it into Jewish nationalism , which means they needed to create a language, a flag and a specific piece of land to call a country. The second part of this message talks about how the Three Great Awakenings were instrumental in changing the nation's churches, moving away from the original gospel of who the promises of God were intended for, creating many denominations, and weakening, if not destroying, the church.
