Roman Catholicism: The Eucharist

Having discussed the other six sacraments of the Roman Church, James Meyers discusses how Rome sees the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper, which they believe to be the greatest sacrament. Additionally, James discusses differing Protestant doctrines regarding the Lord’s Supper and how we might dutifully and reverently comprehend this most blessed communion.

The Sacraments: Baptism, part 2

Having introduced the sacrament of baptism last week, James Meyers considers the debate between paedobaptism, baptizing infants, credobaptism, commonly known as believer’s baptism. He also considers the sacraments generally to return the solemn and sacred use of sacraments into the Protestant Church. Where the Catholic Church puts too much into the sacraments, The Reformed Church tends to put too little. If we are to believe, we must know what we believe and why we believe it, and our formal cause of this knowledge comes only through the authority of the Scriptures.

Roman Catholicism: The Sacraments

James Meyers begins a new series considering some of the essential differences between Roman Catholicism and Reformed Protestantism. We will explore how and why the Reformation began and why it is still crucial to understand and maintain the doctrines and confessions which sprang from this divine providence. While the church seems to be more divided than ever before, James intends to bring clarity into unity. While there are points to which we cannot and will not compromise, it behooves the church to seek the oneness God through Christ intended for His Bride.

The Sacraments: Baptism, part 1

Today, James Meyers discusses the sacrament of baptism. As controversial as this subject can be, James strives to focus on what the Scriptures say, while giving brief overviews of some of the controversies thereunto appertaining. He also discusses the baptism of the Holy Spirit, a biblical truth which has recently undergone a shift in emphasis in recent Christian movements. Without condemning intentions, James merely tries to return the emphasis to its proper authority, namely, the Word of God.

Men and Women in the Bible: John the Baptist, the Forerunner to the King

Returning to our series, Men and Women in the Bible, James Meyers discusses the final Old Testament prophet, John the Baptist. His ministry was of a radical nature, commanding the Jews to be baptized, a rite which was then only given to proselytes converting to Judaism. This was to “Prepare the way of the Lord,” and the warnings of which he preached were piercing and scandalous to the religious leaders of the day. As great a canvas as is the account of John, James introduces his ministry prior to discussing the sacrament of baptism in our sermon for today.

Interpreting the Book of Revelation

Today, James Meyers takes a hiatus from our series, Men and Women in the Bible, to consider a variety of viewpoints regarding how we interpret the Book of Revelation as well as his own position. Additionally, he considers Christ’s Olivet Discourse in terms of application and how it differs from the context of the eschaton. This is meant to be a primer for his following sermon about the parousia, the Second Coming of our Lord.

Christ is King:The Believer's Resurrection

Much mystery surrounds the subject of our resurrection. However, God’s word has furnished His church with much of which to anticipate and upon which to meditate. There are many things we can know for certain, and others which remain mysterious until the parousia (Christ’s Second Coming). Here lies the great epoch of eternity. Here is the restoration and culmination of mankind in our Lord Jesus Christ.
