Sermon Review: Revelation 1:5-6 "from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood [6] and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen."

The Revelation is dynamic and dramatic. The 4 horsemen of the apocalypse, the battles of Armageddon, the fall of the unholy Trinity (beast, false prophet and dragon), and so much more. Yet, through it all we see Jesus, the LORD of all, moving Heaven and earth to reach people with the Gospel. That is often the missing message of the Revelation. Never forget that God loves you. May the LORD bless you and your family this week.

Sermon Sneak Peek: Revelation 1:8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

This week at Mercer Baptist Church we begin our Summer series through the Book of Revelation. First, and most important, we must go into it understanding that it is the Revelation of Jesus Christ. It is written to present the LORD as King of kings and LORD of lords. It is the glorious picture of God the Son in all His majesty as He finishes His plan of redemption. I look forward to this journey with you. Service time is 10:30am. May God bless you and your family.

Sermon Review: 1 Peter 5:7 "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."

God is on the Throne of all creation. He is sovereign, almighty, all-knowing, and He loves us with a perfect love. No matter what we face, sorrow, pain, suffering, loss, fear, doubt, or anxiety, we can bring it to Him. He loves. He cares. He comforts. He blesses. He is the LORD.
Join us this Sunday as we begin our sermon series through the Book of Revelation.

May God bless you and your family this week.

Sermon Sneak Peek: 1 Peter 5:11 "To Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

This Sunday at Mercer Baptist Church we come to the end of our journey through 1 Peter. The culmination of this amazing Letter if found in this verse. Jesus sits upon the Throne of all Creation and we who are Not Of This World can courageously live as citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven in a fallen world. Service at 10:30am. All are welcome. May God bless you and your family.

Sermon Review: Psalm 8:1 “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.”

Thank you all who served and participated in our first BREATHE service yesterday. We focused on the Majesty of our LORD and expressed our awe and worship to the One who set the stars in the sky. He is worthy of our praise, devotion, service, and obedience. Let me encourage us all to continue to remember how majestic our God is throughout the week. May God bless you and your family.

Sermon Review: 1 Peter 4:19 "Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good."

If there is a single verse that best sums up 1 Peter it is this one. He informs us there will be suffering in this fallen world. Yet we can trust the LORD's plan for our lives by living like citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven because He is faithful. We are Not Of This World and because of that we are free to commit our lives here to our King. May He bless you and your family this week.

Sermon Sneak Peek: 1 Peter 4:1-2 "Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; (2) That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God."

This Sunday, 10:30am at Mercer Baptist Church, we dig into the mind of a citizen of Heaven. It is a mind like Christ's. Peter encourages us to "arm" ourselves with the mind of Christ then describes 10 characteristics of that mind. As we grow as disciples we become more Christlike in our thinking, feelings, and actions. This is the journey. May God bless you and your family today.

Sermon Recap: 1 Peter 3:8-9 "Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. (9) Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing."

We are Not Of This World. We are citizens of the Kingdom of God. The LORD has been showing us through 1 Peter that we can live like the people of God in this fallen world. We are transformed by His love, grace, mercy, and power. We are equipped to be His ambassadors to those who do not know Him yet. This is our calling. This is our blessing. May God bless you and your family this week.
