SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 12, 2021
Rom 5:19-21
For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
WELCOME TO RESCUE BAPTIST CHURCH
“Sinners are welcome at this church. We are a local body of the Lord Jesus Christ. As you spend time with us, you’ll soon discover we’re an imperfect church, with an imperfect pastor, yet by God’s undeserved grace, we preach, believe, and know the perfect gospel of our never-failing Lord Jesus Christ. We call His name Jesus for He shall, (not might, not maybe) but shall save His people from their sins, and every sinner that trusts in Christ is complete in Him, saved
to the uttermost” HEBREWS 7:25 (copied)

“Will worship and Christ worship cannot exist together. Either God’s will controls man’s will, or man’s will controls God’s will. Either God controls the devil, or the devil controls God. Either God rules man, or man rules God. God says, ‘I will do all my pleasure’; and all who know Him rejoice in knowing that it is so, saying, ‘It is the Lord: let Him do what seemeth Him good’.”
Pastor Don Fortner

“Salvation is the work of God for man; it is not the work of man for God. Salvation is the bestowal and actual impartation of eternal life; it is not the beauties and artificial imitation of ethical living. Salvation is the imputed righteousness of God; it is not the imperfect righteousness of man. Salvation is according to the faithful calling of God; it is not according to the fitful carefulness of man. Salvation is a divine reconciliation; it is not a human regulation. Salvation is the canceling of all sin; it is not the cessation from some sin. Salvation is being delivered from, and dead to, the Law; it is not delighting in, or doing, the Law. Salvation is divine regeneration; it is not human reformation. Salvation is being acceptable to God; it is not being exceptionally good. Salvation is completeness in Christ; it is not competency in character. Salvation is possessing every spiritual blessing; it is not professing any special betterment. Salvation is always and only of God. It is never of man. It is the unsearchable riches of Christ. It is to good works which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” L. S. Chafer (1871 - 1952)
“Search the word; study the word; weigh the words of all preachers BY THE WORD OF GOD. We must make a difference between God’s word and the words of men. ‘Man’s words are a sound which flies into the air and soon vanishes.’ But the word of God is eternal; it is greater than heaven and earth; it is greater than life or death; for it is the power and wisdom of God! It is ‘with the word of truth’ that He BEGETS us. It is ‘through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth that God has chosen us to salvation’ (2 Thess. 2:13). It is ‘by hearing the word’ that FAITH comes. ‘COMFORT one another with these words’, saith the Lord. If there is any one thing that would please God’s true preachers, it is that our hearers would ‘receive the word of God will all readiness of mind and SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES daily, whether those things were so’ (Acts 17:11). Honor the words of God and honor the Lord’s Spirit, who gave them, by trusting Him to give you light and understanding. We preach and teach, but only our Lord can enlighten the hearts of men.”
