Thoughts from your pastor…

I was asked this question from one of our young ladies in the youth group.

Did people in the Old Testament go to heaven even though Jesus hadn’t died yet?

Yes… and here’s why.

People have always been saved the same way: by God’s grace through faith. In the Old Testament, believers trusted in God’s promise of a coming Savior. They didn’t know His name yet, but they believed God would provide a way.

Abraham is a great example. He believed God and it was counted to him as righteousness. He wasn’t saved by works or the law, but by faith.

When Jesus died on the cross, His sacrifice paid for sins past, present, and future. So Old Testament believers were saved by the same Jesus we trust in today. They looked forward in faith, while we look back.

Salvation has always been about trusting God and it has always been made possible through Christ.

Thoughts from your pastor…
I was recently asked the following question and want to ask you the same.

Is obedience the root of salvation or the fruit of salvation?

The Bible makes it clear—obedience is not the root, it’s the fruit.

We are saved by grace through faith, not by our works (Ephesians 2:8–9). We could never obey well enough to earn salvation. But once God saves us, He begins to change us.

Obedience isn’t how we get God’s love. It’s how we show we already have it.

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” – Jesus

Don’t try to earn it. Live it.

Award-winning Roberson Family, Others slated for Siloam Baptist Hymn Sing

The Roberson Family of Teneha, TX, is set to appear at Siloam Baptist Church, 35480 LA-191, Many, on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at 5 p.m. Everyone is invited to attend this special service sure to uplift the spirit and stir the heart.

The Roberson Family includes a trio of youngsters - siblings Julia, Cline and Ella, who won The Singing News 2025 Talent Search Award for Best Group and were recognized twice in a recent issue of the magazine.

The special Hymn Sing service will also feature two leading Gospel Singing Convention pianists, John Will Martin of Birmingham, AL, and Lane Brown, of Haughton, LA. These two talented gentlemen have performed in this area before and built a strong following in Sabine.

Pastor Chuck Lusk and the Siloam congregation extend a warm invitation to everyone to attend the upcoming service.

“We invite everybody to come fellowship with us for this special evening of traditional hymn singing and Gospel music. The Robersons, John Will Martin, Lane Brown and our other special guests will bless our hearts with hope, encouragement and faith,” the church shared.

The Roberson Family, led by Timothy and Nicole Roberson, has become well known for sharing their passion for Christ through music and testimony. Known for powerful harmonies and heartfelt performances, the Robersons bring a message that inspires audiences of all ages. Their repertoire spans from beloved traditional hymns to uplifting modern worship, all centered on glorifying God.

The group appeared at the National Quartet Convention in Pigeon Forge, TN recently, and a new album, God of Today, was released in mid-February of this year to good reviews. A sampling of the Robersons’ music may be viewed on YouTube at www.youtube.com/.

The first part of the Hymn Sing service will be “round robin” style song-leading of old hymns by various participants, including requests by the audience, with piano by John Will Martin and Lane Brown. The evening’s second portion will feature the Roberson Family. The two-hour event is set to end at 7 p.m., so attendees are ensured daylight travel.

Thoughts from your pastor…

Saturday is the quietest day of Passion Week.

Jesus has been crucified. His body lies in the tomb. The crowds have dispersed. The disciples are scattered, grieving, confused, and afraid. Heaven seems silent.

This is the in-between day.

It’s the space between promise and fulfillment… between heartbreak and hope… between what God said and what we can currently see.

Have you ever lived in a “Saturday”? A season where prayers feel unanswered, where God seems distant, where the future is uncertain?

Saturday reminds us of a powerful truth: God is still working, even in the silence.

While the world saw a sealed tomb, God was preparing a resurrection. While fear gripped the disciples, victory was already in motion. The silence was not absence—it was anticipation.

Sometimes God does His deepest work when it feels like He’s doing nothing at all.

So if you find yourself in a Saturday season today:
• Hold onto what you know is true
• Trust what God has already promised
• Wait with expectation, not despair

Because Sunday is coming.

Thoughts from your pastor…

Today we stand at the foot of the cross.

Good Friday is the darkest day in human history. But it is also the most hopeful. Jesus, beaten, mocked, and crucified, spoke three powerful words before He breathed His last: “It is finished.”

This was not a cry of defeat. It was a declaration of victory.

The work of redemption was complete.

Every sin past, present, and future was paid for in full. The weight of our guilt, shame, and rebellion was placed upon Christ, and He bore it willingly.

The cross was not a tragic accident. It was God’s divine plan to rescue us.

In the silence that followed His death, it may have seemed like evil had won. The disciples were scattered. Hope appeared lost. But what looked like an ending was actually the beginning of new life.

Good Friday reminds us:
• God’s love is sacrificial.
• Sin is costly.
• Grace is freely given.

When Jesus said, “It is finished,” He meant that nothing more is required for your salvation. You don’t have to earn it—you simply receive it.

Today ask yourself these two questions:
What does it mean to you personally that Jesus paid it all?
Is there anything you’re still trying to carry that He already finished?
