The Biggest Error of Christian America

Abraham

by Rev. James Jester

We often hear in the media and talk radio the cry to “support Israel,” meaning support the state of Israel and the Jews in general. We also hear the ads for “The Fellowship of Christians and Jews” soliciting the public for donations. This “support Israel” position gets most of its backing from Christians and churches, for they primarily teach the “chosen people” myth. It is crazy how our politicians have no problem sending money to any Jewish cause in the world; in fact the tiny state of Israel gets more foreign aid from the U.S.

SCRIPTURE READING: I John 1:5-7

A study in First John. What is sin?

INTRODUCTION

I grew up in a typical Christian family during the 1960’s. My two brothers and sister and I were sent to Vacation Bible School, and our family attended the Cokesbury Methodist church. Years later, after my father was converted, we went to a different church (that’s another story).

I distinctly remember sitting in church, listening to the preacher, but not really understanding anything since I was so young. He occasionally used a word that I had never heard before, and I wondered just what it was. Was it something good or something bad? Then the next thing I heard from the preacher was a thundering, “God hates sin!” I suddenly knew that sin was something bad, something awful, and something that offended God. That event impressed the young boy for the rest of his life.

Hosea One

By Pastor Don Elmore

New Covenant Messenger, September 2024

Hosea 1:1  "The word of the LORD that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel."

Hosea, is instructed by the LORD, to take a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms. He was to have three children and their names would be representative of three things that would happen to the house of Israel. The house of Judah was excluded from these prophecies. They would experience a different scenario.

Are Jewish People Who Believe in Jesus Still Jewish?

Scripture Reading:  Matthew 13:30

Who are the “wheat” and who are the “tares?” This parable says that both (wheat and the tares) have different fathers with the same mother; they are two different seed lines. And they have a drastic, different destiny.So, the identification of the “wheat” and “tares” is especially important in the theological interpretation of these verses of this parable.

But this Messianic web site, thejewishroad.com says nothing about this parable in their article, “Are Jewish People Who Believe in Jesus Still Jewish?” They don’t mention this lesson at all. They assume that all people are equal in the eyes of God in our times.

The purpose of this sermon is to dissect what this article presents and to investigate whether any Jews can be saved. It will also examine doctrines that many so-called “Christians” now believe and show where they cause contradictions in what the Bible says.

Covenantkeepers - Part 6

Covenant Keepers - Part 6.mp3

“... for without me ye can do nothing” John 15:4-5

By Walter Giddings

(Exodus 19:5).  Do we need a brief review?  Covenantkeepers has become a subject matter of large size and long time!  Shall we take stock of what we have learned so far?  How is it that we are now embarking on Lesson 6 Covenantkeepers, and the precise term “Covenantkeepers” appears nowhere in either testament!

Shall we return to Bible History, at the commanded time in Israel’s Festival Cycle called Pentecost, at the location where Moses shepherded his father-in-law, Jethro’s sheep, opposite Mount Horeb, before Mount Sinai: 

Who do we Preach to? Part 2

Annual Missouri Homecoming Conference 2024

Scripture Reading:  Ephesians 2:13

Who are the “ye” that are being addressed in this passage? It isn’t everyone on the earth, for they were at one time“far off” and were made “near” by the blood of Christ. The Bible has a lot of pronouns. What noun(s) are they representing?

Pastor Chuck Baldwin, who is usually pretty good in his commentary of world events, proved to me that he is way off in his interpretation of one of the important themes of the Bible. He commented on an interview that Christian Zionist Pastor John MacArthur had with Antichrist Zionist Jew Ben Shapiro. He claimed that the interview promoted genocide in Gaza. The article was presented on July 11, 2024.

Audio message from the Annual Missouri Homecoming Conference 2024

Scripture Reading:  James 1:1 Who are the twelve tribes of Israel, that the half-brother of Jesus was addressing in his epistle which is in the New Testament, and where were they scattered abroad? Are their descendants still alive and well and somewhere on the earth? If they are still alive (and they are), what do they believe now? Do most of them still believe in God? Are a lot of them, or even some of them, members of Christian churches?

But if they are in Christendom, it is in a chaotic mess. There isn’t just one church, there are many churches with a multitude of opposing views. There is very little common doctrine in the many different denominations and various independent churches.

Let’s look at a few of these disagreements.

Who do we Preach to?

by Pastor Don Elmore

Part 1:  There are many differences of opinion on many topics since the Protestant Reformation. We are to present the gospel to these people, many who are in these different denominations.

Part 2:  Chuck Baldwin presents his views about dispensationalism but is just as wrong when he says that all the tribes of Israel exist no more. 

The History of Hymns

By Debra Downey

We have such a deep rich history with 20 centuries of beautiful hymns that has been passed down to us, from generation to generation.  Hymnody is the study of our hymns and should be periodically touched on in conferences. One of my research books had this in the preface: “In each era, creative people have offered their gifts to the Lord, shared by congregations and passed on. So as we worship, we are entering an ongoing song, composed long before our time and continuing into eternity.”
