The sermon today is titled "Expectations and Palm Sunday". It is based on Luke 19:28-44. What did the crowd expect? What did the Lord expect? What does the Lord still expect?
The PARABLE & MIRACLES Series resumes with Pastor Elliott preaching the Parable of the Blind Guides. Luke 6:39-42. The Spiritually-Blind are going to hell & they cannot help anyone else get to heaven. It's only believers who are living in God's will who can have anything to say to believers who are living outside of God's will!
Yes, we are His handiwork but the Father gave to each of us an independent will; independent of Him and of each other. He also gave us the freedom to choose life or death, blessing and cursing. We were advised to choose life so that we and our descendants may live. We will get a better idea of how to use that free-will to make the best choices for good spiritual

The PARABLES & MIRACLES series continues today with consideration of The Miracle of the Healing of the Ten Lepers. (Luke 17:11-19) The Club of the Thankless should have no Christians in it! We need to turn back to thank Jesus rather than pressing forward ungrateful to Him!
Once again, Romans 1:11-15 are our verses for today.

Today Pastor Elliott begins a new preaching series: "PARABLES & MIRACLES". The Parable of the Mustard Seed (Matthew 13:31-32) has a lot to say to us! We ought not to despise the day of small things!

On the second Lord's Day of 2019 Pastor Elliott continues his "STATE of the CHURCH" sermon. This focuses on the Churches of Revelation 2:18 -3:22. Could their problems be Calvary Bible Church's problems?

Do you bless God every day? If we don’t have the attitude of always praising God here and now, how are we preparing for our eternal home? This morning we will look at Psalm 145 and see how David absorbs himself in the joyful duty of an all praise mindset and be challenged to do the same.
Today's sermon is from Hebrews 2:5-9. Like a game of chess, our lives circumstances & world events only make sense when we keep our eyes on the King, the Lord Jesus!

Today Pastor Nick Examins the friendship of David and Nathan and the problems created by Davids sin with Bathshiba
Welcoming others goes beyond a friendly handshake. Moving is hard. In addition to packing your belongings and boxing up your memories, you also have to acclimate to new surroundings. A new grocery store. A new traffic pattern. Even a new local news team on TV. Everything is new and nothing is familiar. That won’t last forever. What is new will eventually become familiar. Things will become comfortable as you adjust to your new normal. We all love familiarity because what is familiar is comfortable.
Have you ever felt pressure not to take Jesus so seriously? Today's sermon "Don't Recant. Don't Re-Define.", based on Hebrews 1:10-14, will be encouragement to you!
Hebrews 1:5-9 Clearly there is folklore about angels but there is scripture about Jesus. He is superior to angels

Today we look at Hebrews 1:3-4 and we see 5 reasons why Jesus Christ is superior to angels!
Ever wondered why a moth is attracted to a light? If so, you’re not alone. Scientists have long pondered this, but they don’t know either. At least, they don’t know for sure. They’ve come up with several hypotheses, but they end up poking holes in each one. So, we’ll just keep wondering—while the moths keep flying to the light.
Today we look at Hebrews 1:1-2. What makes Jesus Christ God's best communication? How do we listen to Him?
Pastor Elliott begins his new verse-by-verse study this morning with an overview of the New Testament book of Hebrews. The message of Hebrews is ‘It’s wise to press on to maturity in Christ because He is superior!’
This Lord's Supper Sunday the sermon focuses on the Cross and more specifically, focuses on the real cause of our Saviour's death. "The Real Cause of Death" will open our eyes both to the seriousness of our sin and to the love of our Lord.
We return to Jesus' story about the Prodigal Son. Last time we saw the DOWN and the UP of the story by focusing on the prodigal. Today we see the IN and the OUT of the story by looking at the older brother and the father.
“Why is this happening God?!” We all face tragedy and disappointment and a natural response is to question God’s character and actions. In today’s passage from Luke 7:18-23, a spiritual titan questions Jesus and Jesus’ response is an invitation to us in the darkest times.
Jesus Christ's story of the prodigal son is layered with insight and application for our Christian lives. The sermon titled DOWN - UP is a look at the younger, wild-spending son and a look at God's hope for those of us who are DOWN. Turn in your Bibles to Luke 15:11-32 and let's hear the story!
this is the conclusion to the series titled "PRAYER: Oxygen or Oxygen Mask?" In sermon 1 we considered the Knowledge of GOD and prayer. In sermon 2 we considered the Knowledge of SATAN and prayer. And today, sermon 3 will consider the Knowledge of OURSELVES and prayer. Getting a better handle on our PROBLEMS and on our POTENTIALS will help us to pray as we ought!
Today our preaching series "PRAYER: OXYGEN or OXYGEN MASK?" continues with the truth that to properly pray we must have the proper knowledge of Satan. Satan is like a bank robber who is in the bank surrounded by the police: He is going to jail one day but until then he wants to hold us hostage. So we pray continually ... like we constantly breathe air!
When it comes to pain and illness, many of us fall into one of three categories: call the doctor immediately, try our own home remedies or over-the-counter solutions, or ignore it and hope it goes away.
Today we begin a new preaching series - "PRAYER: Oxygen or Oxygen Mask?" Looking at John 4:10 and other Scriptures we will learn that to properly pray we must have the proper knowledge of God!
"Fathers & the Armor".It is based on Ephesians 6:10-17. What are the individual pieces of the armor? How are they put on? Why are they necessary for Christian fathers (and for all other believers)?
There’s a common misconception about the kingdom of God that many people accept, including many Christians. It’s the idea that God’s kingdom is something that’s coming someday—that it’s a place we’ll go when we die, way out in the future.
Those who have ever successfully reached a weight loss goal and improved their health know that such success can be short-lived if the habits that achieved that goal are not maintained. One victory does not mean we “rest on our laurels.” Injustice will continue to rise up as long as we live in a fallen world. We can celebrate what God has done even as we continue to work for what is right.
Of all the sins that can distract us from living effectively for Jesus, PRIDE, is one of the most dangerous. We are tempted to believe that any successes or blessings come through our own effort or abilities. We will take a look at pride and observe how it will take our focus off God and when it has taken root in our hearts, distort our walk with God.
Jesus tells us to examine our own motives and conduct instead of judging others. The traits that bother us in others are often the habits we dislike in ourselves. Our untamed bad habits and behavior patterns are the very ones that we most want to change in others.
Too many people want to deal with wrongs against themselves or others by being the judge, jury, and executioner. These roles have never been given to Christians; rather, we serve the One who is the ultimate Judge. Our role is that of a witness, to expose the wrong and point to the right. God calls us to be witnesses to His truth and what is right.
Today we return to the 1 Peter preaching series.The sermon "How to Pray for Our Church's Elders" is an exposition of 1 Peter 5:1-5. Putting into practice the truths of 1 Peter 5:1-5 will truly bless our Assembly!
“Fight fire with fire” can actually be an effective tactic in putting out literal fires, but it is a lousy way to handle conflict. In fact, such tactics can worsen a situation. We’ve surely seen stories of road rage escalating between two people. The Bible calls us to live with kindness and humility, even in dealing with conflict. Esther modeled just such Christlike behavior in her plan to expose injustice.
This Mothers' Day, Pastor Elliott provides a short biblical study on how a believer is accepted by God. This truth liberates moms from feeling that they have to measure up with the Lord by what they do "for" Him. Ours is a "receiving" and not an "achieving" acceptance with God!
Our "1 Peter: Living in Victory While Facing Opposition" series takes us to 1 Peter 4:12-19 today. The sermon titled, "The Passing Grade for Suffering" gives us 3 attitudes, all sourced in the Holy Spirit, which will give us a passing grade in times of suffering. The 3 attitudes are: Rejoicing. Glorifying God. & Trusting Ourselves to God.
Standing up for the sake of others can sometimes be easy: casting a vote, writing a check, or sending an email and making an appeal. Such actions are good, but they require little from us. Sometimes, though, taking a stand doesn’t sit well in the eyes of family, employers, or the community. When it’s costly, what do we do? Esther faced just such a decision, yet she was willing to set aside her own selfpreservation to see that justice was done.
The constant barrage of news via social media and 24-hour news outlets can often dull us and make us passive observers. Others can feel overwhelmed by all the wrong in the world and think there’s nothing they can do. We can’t fix every injustice we see, but we are called to step in where we can. Christians have no excuse for not doing the right thing when the opportunity is right in front of them.
The Majors share about there experience at the Christian Counseling Center and Prepare enrich
Today the 1st PETER REFINER's FIRE: Living in Victory While Facing Opposition" sermon series looks at "Expecting & Caring" based on 1 Peter 4:1-7. We are told two attitudes which we are to have in the middle of suffering.
Today we return to our REFINER's FIRE: Living in Victory While Facing Opposition. The focus being 1 Peter 4:1-6. And the sermon title being: "An Armed Mind". Our thinking is so important to spiritual victory. We will see how a proper mindset views sin, suffering and service.
The Bible often depicts us as sheep. Left to ourselves, we wander off and place ourselves in harm’s way. We can’t find our way back. The Bible also depicts God as the Shepherd over us. He is the One who gently guides us, protects us, and comforts us. Psalm 23 is one of the most beloved psalms in Scripture, and it succinctly captures this picture of God as our loving Shepherd.

HE IS RISEN! Today's Easter sermon is titled: "Raised Because of Our Justification". This sermon's Scripture text is Romans 4:25B. We look at the nature of Christ's bodily resurrection and at God's grace work of justifying those who believe in Christ for salvation.
"For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son ..." This year's Good Friday sermon is titled "Delivered Up Because of Our Transgressions". Romans 4:25A is the Scripture text. We are blessed to learn more about the nature of transgressions and about the wonder of God's justice.
Who doesn’t long for peace? We’d love an absence of conflict in our lives, a time with no squabbling or obstacles. Even when we have those moments of “peace and quiet,” they are often short-lived. But God offers us a far greater and lasting peace, even while facing conflict with others or battling our circumstances. In Gideon’s encounter with God, he discovered he could trust God to give the Israelite's peace because of who God is.
This Palm Sunday Pastor Elliott takes us to the Word to see that the actual timing and the predicted timing of Christ's Triumphal Entry were precisely the same! "Right On Time!" is a sermon to encourage all of us that our God is always right on time!
1 Peter 3:19-22 present some of the most challenging verses to interpret in all of the New Testament! Today Pastor Elliott's message titled "Our Suffering & Our Victorious Saviour [Part 2]" seeks to explain the truths of these verses.
“We stand better when we stand together.” “There’s strength in numbers.” We generally agree with those statements, but sometimes life can feel so insurmountable that no amount of help and support makes a difference. Thankfully, God stands over the world, and He stands over every single issue we face. As the Israelites discovered, God is a banner over us, covering us with His protecting presence.
Today in our REFINER's FIRE: LIVING in VICTORY WHILE FACING OPPOSITION Series, we come to 1 Peter 3:13-18. This sermon's title is "Our Suffering & Our Victorious Saviour".The unexpected thing is that it is better to suffer for doing right than to suffer for doing wrong...after all our Saviour did so!
We are broken people. We may be broken by our circumstances or surroundings, or we may be broken by our sin and failures. Regardless of our best efforts, we remain broken people. But God steps in. He heals our brokenness and restores us when we trust in Him. The Israelites were continually called to trust and obey God. In so doing, they would experience His healing and wholeness.
Today Pastor Elliott continues the "REFINER's FIRE: Living in Victory While Facing Opposition" Series of messages with the sermon "Christianity & Courtesy".This sermon is an exposition of 1 Peter 3:8-12. Christian, consider yourself to be called by God to courtesy toward others.
Our tendency is to live by what we can see. We believe what we can touch. We’re confident when what we need is right in front us. But life does not always hand us easy answers and solutions. A life in Christ is a life of trust—trusting Him to provide what we need, even when we don’t readily see the answer. Abraham showed us that God truly is our Provider
Today our "REFINER's FIRE: Living in Victory While Facing Opposition" study in the Book of 1 Peter turns to husbands. We must answer God's call to live with our wives in an understanding way! We will be blessed if we do. We will not be blessed if we don't!
Christ-centered living chooses prayer, not hopelessness. 1 Samuel 1:9-11,17-18,26-28; 2:1-3
Our current preaching series through the Book of 1 Peter is called “REFINER’S FIRE - Living in Victory While Facing Opposition” Sometimes that opposition sleeps in the marital bed beside you! Today’s sermon is “Living with an Unpersuaded Husband”. It is based on 1 Peter 3:1-6.
Pastor Elliott continues in the "REFINER'S FIRE - Living in Victory While Facing Opposition" preaching Series with a practical message titled: 'You & Your Government and You & Your Sweet Sufferings". Today God's Word gives us help to interact with Government and with sufferings.
Today we look at 1 Peter 2:11-12 with our sermon titled "Somebody's Watching You!" [Part 1] What is submission? To what kind of government are we to submit ourselves? Why do non-Christians watch us so much? What kind of life should we show them? These questions will be answered in this practical sermon.
Today in his "Refiner's Fire" Preaching Series, Pastor Elliott takes us back to 1 Peter 1:22 - 2:10 to complete his 2-part sermon focusing on the last three good reasons to have Christian Togetherness!
The REFINER'S FIRE - LIVING IN VICTORY WHILE FACING OPPOSITION Preaching Series takes us to 1 Peter 1:22 - 2:10 today. The sermon's title is CHRISTIAN TOGETHERNESS (Part 1). Let's see 3 good reasons to have Christian Togetherness!
Today we return to our 1 Peter Preaching Series "REFINER'S FIRE - Living in Victory While Facing Opposition".And 1 Peter 1:13-21 will instruct us all on "How & Why to Live Holy".
Christmas is about God! When we pause to consider the force and reality of this truth, our reflexed response must be one of adoration. So come, let us adore Him.
Today we conclude our 2017 CHRISTMAS WORDS Series. And the Christmas Words in this message are perhaps unlikely: FLESH & BLOOD and DEATH.The miracle of Christmas can take away our fear of death.
Today the CHRISTMAS WORDS Series continues with a look at the Christmas Word "REDEMPTION".This miracle work for sinner who believe on Jesus Christ for salvation is so large that there are 4 Greek words in the New Testament to depict redemption!
Today Pastor Elliott begins a series of Bible messages which he is calling "CHRISTMAS WORDS". Today's Christmas word is MESSIAH (The Anointed One) This sermon scans the Old & New Testaments to consider that to which our Messiah Jesus has been anointed.
Today Pastor Elliott preaches 1 Peter 1:8-12 as another exposition in the REFINER's FIRE Series. The sermon's title is: "On the Inside Looking Beyond - On the Outside Looking Down. When one is INSIDE God's salvation, they look BEYOND themselves. When one is OUTSIDE God's salvation, they look DOWN.
Today Pastor Elliott returns to the 1 Peter Series. Chapter 1 verses 1-5 are reviewed and then Chapter 1 verses 6 & 7 are taught. The sermon title is: Joy, Distress, Proven Faith, Precious Faith. Praising Faith.We have a sympathetic and an aware Savior. He can see us through temporary & necessary trials!
Jesus called one man to go on the mission field—in his own neighborhood. Through this man’s encounter with Jesus, we see that we don’t have to go far to change the world.
Today Pastor Elliott will present the last sermon in the “There’s No Place Like Home” Series. It is titled: “Biblical Answers to Common Questions on Marriage & Parenting”.
The "There's No Place Like Home" Preaching Series continues with the Bible's answers to common questions about marriage & parenting.
Telling others about Jesus has nothing to do with marketing, but it can involve persuasion.In 2 Corinthians 5, the apostle Paul wrote about persuasion. However, his focus wasn’t on what he did to persuade others; his focus was on what persuaded him to share Christ with others. Let’s consider what persuades us to do the same.
Today the "THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME" Preaching Series continues with a special biblical challenge to all mothers. Children need both a godly dad and a godly mom. Today's sermon gives practical direction for Christian mothers in fulfilling their very important roles.
The “There’s No Place Like Home” Sermon Series continues with Pastor Elliott preaching Part 2 of what God’s Word says to Fathers. How not to provoke one’s children to anger is a large part of this practical sermon.
My office is full of artwork, and I’m proud of my collection. Before you start guessing whether I prefer abstract, modern, renaissance, or cute Bible verse plaques, I’ll give you a hint: I have three young children. The “artwork” that graces my wall is a compilation of squiggly lines, letters, pandas, and a drawing of yours truly flying with a cape. The amazing thing about children is that, no matter how their drawings look or how far outside the lines the colors go, they are always so proud of their work. (And so are their parents.)
the marriage relationship is a place where man and woman help each other grow in their relationship with Christ; knowing, serving, and loving Him deeper. God's design for marriage is that the husband and wife would be used to mold each other more into the image of Christ.
Making a mess in the kitchen is one thing. Making a mess of life is quite another. I can clean the kitchen to the point you’d never know I was in there. But when I make a mess of my life, I can’t just wipe away the evidence—or the consequences.
we are living in a time when everything and everyone is screaming for our attention. The Question for each of us this morning is how are we honoring God through the usage of Technology as it relates to our family?
Continuing is the "There's No Place Like Home" preaching series, we look at what the Bible says to Husbands & Dads. This instruction is especially needed in our country in these days!
Until recently, not many people were familiar with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also called Lou Gehrig’s disease—an incurable, progressive, muscle-weakening disease that ultimately ends in death. Then the ice-bucket challenge emerged in the summer of 2014. People were challenged to pour a bucket of ice and water on their heads to raise awareness for ALS and encourage donations for research. Whoever did this challenge could then challenge others. Thanks to videos being posted on social media, the idea went viral. People all over the country and around the world jumped on the bandwagon and took the challenge. By the end of 2014, few did not know about this fatal disease. More importantly, over $100 million was raised, allowing research efforts to be tripled.
Guest Speaker, Mark Hall, Director of Word of Life Caribbean shares from God's Word this Morning on How our homes are to be a laboratory for Developing Character!
A casual introduction can often turn into something far greater. Ivan Vaughan introduced Paul McCartney, a friend from school, to another friend, John Lennon. Those two later would form The Beatles and change the world of music. Bill Fernandez introduced his friend Steve Wozniak to another friend, Steve Jobs. They eventually gave us Apple®.
The preaching series "There's No Place Like Home" continues. Pastor Elliott preaches Sermon 2 which is a look at Marriage's MONUMENT, MAINTENANCE, MORTAR & MISSILES.
Just hours after Category 4 HURRICANE IRMA swung away from Nassau, the Incredible Body of Christ called Calvary Bible Church gathered to worship God for sparing us. Pastor Elliott preached a sermon which he wrote during the storm's approach: "11 STORMS". It was a quick look at 11 storms in the Bible. We saw that God had 11 different purposes in those storms. We also saw that ONLY GOD can control storms!
The Christian Workers' Sunday's sermon is "Many Aspire - Few Attain". This is a re-working of a NAVIGATOR booklet by the same title, written by Walt Henrichsen. Answers to the question: "What will keep a worker in Christ's service?
Let’s admit it: we’ve all been amazed by a magician’s trick or illusion. Whether it was making his assistant disappear, sawing a person in half, or even a sleight-of-hand card trick, we’ve wondered: How did he do that? Later, if we discover how he created the illusion, our amazement vanishes as quickly as the assistant. The next time we see that illusion, it seems so obvious what’s actually going on. What changed? We were able to see things from the magician’s perspective.
Today we take a break from the 1 Peter preaching series and we begin a short preaching series, which we are calling "There's No Place Like Home". Today's message is on marriage, God's way.
People don’t always agree in our society, and that’s okay. A married couple may disagree over which color to paint the living room, but they still love each other. People disagree all the time over sports, politics, entertainment, and more—yet they can still enjoy each others’ company.
“How many friends do you have?” These days, people typically answer that question by calculating the number of Facebook friends, Twitter or Instagram followers, and contacts in their phones. In our fast-food, microwave, disposable world, it’s all too easy to pass through life with lots of acquaintances and scores of connections—but few, if any close friends.
Ever noticed how more and more people seem to be having conversations with their phones rather than talking with the people around them? Technology has given us a world of better things, but not necessarily a better world. We are a culture starved for relationships, but even the latest smart phone app doesn’t seem to help us truly connect in those relationships. We read in the Gospel of John that Jesus gave us the key to relationships that matter. He showed us how our relationship with God affects all other relationships. That one relationship is the key that makes all the difference.
Today in looking at 1 Peter 1:1-2 we'll see that the believer's true citizenship is in heaven.

It has been said that when people realize they are coming to the end of life there is a sense of urgency in what they want to say to family members and friends. In the passages for today’s lesson Jesus is reaching the end of His time for ministry and teaching on earth. Jesus knew He would soon be arrested and then face death at Calvary. You can almost feel the sense of urgency in the words of Jesus in the last part of the Book of John. Jesus showed love when He washed the feet the feet of His disciples then He reminded them, not once but twice, of His new commandment to love others. Jesus would show the ultimate act of love by dying on the cross for all humankind. He wanted the message of God’s love and man’s hope of redemption to spread to the world and for that to happen it would be through the lives of His followers. The command to love others still holds true today and your students need to see the importance of continuing in the steps of Jesus and His original followers by not only loving others but being known for loving others.

The technological world we live in offers many ways to brand someone an enemy. A vicious post over social media, posting of an unflattering picture, or even texting gossip can quickly make us aware of who our friends are and who our enemies are. Unlovable people have been around since God created the world. When Jesus came to Earth 2,000 years ago He ushered in a new way of relating to God by accepting the love gift of His Son. In teaching this new type of believer about God’s love, Jesus wanted to show people what real love really looked like. With that in mind, He started teaching about a new way of expressing God’s love and that was by loving enemies. Loving those who love back is easy. Jesus was preparing His disciples and all believers to realize that following Him may be difficult at times and one of those hard things to do would be to love the “unlovable.”

We live in a world of lists like honor roll lists, who made sports lists, and lists of things to learn for tests. They’re also bombarded by the media with lists of greatest things like sports moments, funny videos, and current fashion fads. Many lists are based on personal preference or opinion, and may vary from person to person. But when Jesus speaks, especially when He is asked to list the most important commands, He speaks truth. Jesus gave a list when He was asked by the Pharisees and Sadducees to name the greatest commandment. In this lesson your students will see what Jesus’ response was and what this means in the context of their daily life. When Jesus said the greatest commandment was to love God and love others His list immediately became our list.

Part of being a Christ-follower is realizing that we are God’s vehicle for sharing the Gospel message with the world. The Church are Jesus’ Plan A, which, when you think about it, is an awesome responsibility. As a Christ-follower, part of our identity is to share the Gospel in our actions and in our words. And yet, this is a great challenge for so many of us. While there are many factors that contribute to this, there is one that seems to be most overlooked: compassion. Jesus didn’t share the message of the Kingdom or heal people out of obligation. He did so out of compassion. He was heartbroken at the people’s predicament. Part of our students’ identity as Christ-followers is developing the compassion of Christ, and acting on it to see people come to know Jesus.

When it comes to our students and the world they live in, there is so much that vies for their attention. Sports, friends, hobbies, entertainment, and so on . . . Each of these aspects of their lives (and many more) consumes a part of them. Their passion, energy, time, and pure affection are divided among so many different things, and if they aren’t careful these things can become distractions. But Jesus says in John 15 that part of their identity as a Christ-follower is that He would command the largest part of their attention and affection. That is what it means to “remain” in Jesus. Christ-followers are to be intertwined with Jesus.

The desire to be great, to be known, to be recognized and applauded is a byproduct of our sin-nature. But in this passage, Jesus flips this understanding on its ear.

When Jesus was on earth with His disciples, they asked Him to teach them how to pray. He responded by giving them – and us – what we call, “The Lord's Prayer,” but is more accurately, “The Disciple's Prayer.” [Matt. 6] But He also gave such instructions as Don't be a hypocrite when you pray, don't pray to please men, don't use repetition and useless flowery speech, and so on. He also emphasized the need to keep on praying with the assurance that, because God is a Just God, He will answer, no matter how long it takes, so “ask, seek and knock.”
However, His greatest and more meaningful and impactful lesson on prayer is what He modeled for us on the Cross – and specifically, in Psalm 22 through the experience of David.

My message text is Titus 1:6-16 Continuing our study in Titus we are looking at the qualification of elders according to Titus chapter1. The question is, what is God saying to ME from this text even though I am not an elder?
The apostle Paul, in Philippians, paints a clear picture that Christlikeness is the standard that we should all be pursuing in our lives. This morning whether you are young or older (because there are no old people here this morning) we should be and example of Christ for all to see whether at school, work, or home. Paul, in Philippians 3:17, invites others to imitate him as he follows Christ. What about you? What would people be imitating if they followed you - a genuine Christ follower, or someone who would lead others down a road of destruction? I hope this morning, that all of us can echo these words of Paul.

As a result of the complexities of life in a sinful world, occasional setbacks and difficulties are unavoidable. Whiles such uncertainties may impact us like blackouts, we should be reminded that our hardships do not point out any insufficiency in God or any immorality in us.

This morning we will look at how God has equipped us to cope when blackouts come.

Challenge, in the Christian sense, has been defined as God's call for response.

Greg Speaks on a BBC Show Songs Of Praise http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01mh0dz Pastor Lee Concludes His series on Worship
As Christians, we have all had those moments when it seems like our spiritual get-up-and-go just got up and went and that newness we once experienced in Christ Jesus is nothing more than a distant memory. As a result, the reality of living the new you abundantly is few and far between. Is your daily life an expression of God’s declaration that “if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature?”.
It has been said that Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. I think a lot people would say that it is the busiest time of the year.

Unless each member of this living organism called the church is functioning according to God’s divine purpose and provisions the church will always be handicapped by the obvious lifelessness of dry bones. Christians today who are alive in Christ, but neglect the Spirit’s prompting to work in their lives through His gifting for the benefit of the body of Christ – His church, are as dead as the dry bones in Ezekiel’s valley. Today we will look at Ezekiel’s dramatic reminder to us.

My message on August 25th was to be my final 'official' message as Sr. Pastor of Calvary Bible Church. It was titles "My Farewell Message." However, due to the fact that I was asked by the Pastoral Board to speak at the AM Service today, prior to the "Farewell" Luncheon, I decided that the best way to deal with this "Limbo" situation was to present my "farewell" message in two parts. Today is part two. I also made a change in title from "Farewell" to "Retirement," seeing that I will still be "hanging out" at CBC for a while.

Today is Part One.
Allan Lee: The Anointing of Jesus Greg: the majesty of God in creation the homing abilities of the Pidgin Music: Calvary Bible Church Adult Choir
The Apostle Paul describes who a True 'seeker' really is and how we can be 'Sensitive' to and of them in the local church - and his divine perspective is quite different from those who promote the so-called ' Seeker Sensitive' movement today, which actually seeks to "stunt" the growth of the true church, rather than to mature it. Today's message reflects that of Paul's in Colossians 3 that seeks to mature the body of Christ.

Pastor Nick Continues his series on Holy Vocabulary and what does it mean to be the church
Do you ever have conflict with anyone? The answer to that question depends on whether you are alive or not. The reality is that we all face interpersonal conflicts. Tonight Bro. Terence Pinder concludes his series on the relationship of Jacob and Esau in Genesis 33. God has persistently blessed Jacob in spite of himself and allows Jacob to face his greatest fear through the grace of reconciliation with Esau.
The Apostle Paul continues to reveal his heart and passion for the spiritual growth of believers. Having emphasized that EVERYTHING the Christian needs with regard to knowledge and wisdom concerning our relationship with God is to be found in Jesus Christ, the Living Word, Who is fully revealed in the Written Word, the Apostle now turns to warning the believers about deceivers who seek to distort, twist and manipulate the Word to achieve their own selfish purposes. Implied within this hard-hitting discourse is the critical need for believers to know, understand and obey the Word of God. Paul follow the example of His Lord, Jesus Christ, in His strong and forceful condemnation of those who use the Word in his fashion and attempt to “turn the traditions of man into the traditions of God.” It is indeed a timely and relevant for us today as we seek to “understand the times, and as a result, know what to do.
This is a challenging, fascinating passage, to say the least. The Apostle Paul models the heart attitude of a pastor for the people to whom he ministers and underscores the vital place the proper understanding of the Word of God plays in their standing firm in the Faith In spite of the presence of false teachers and their misuse of the Bible.
Greg looks at the Problem with Islam Pastor Continues his series on stem cell research and Abortion
This morning we are going to look at a very familiar story from Daniel 3. We are going to look at three young men that were ready to burnt for their faith in God. This morning as we look at this very familiar story the question for you and I is “Are we ready to get burnt for Christ?”, “Are we ready to get uncomfortable?” or “Is our reputation more important to us than our love for God?” Also our youth will share testimonies from various trips this summer.
Continuing the series on the Jacob and Esau saga, Bro. Terence Pinder will be sharing from Genesis 32:22-32 this evening. He will discuss how we often pattern our lives after Jacob’s example of self-sufficiency and show that God’s method of blessing us requires complete dependency and faith.

In practical terms, he outlines for us the priority of the Word of God in bringing about the end purpose The Head of the Church has for its members.
The overriding philosophy of the day seems to say, “Do whatever it takes to make sure I get what I think I deserve.” From tonight’s passage in Genesis 26:34-28:9, Bro. Terence Pinder will show how the way we go about receiving God’s blessing has a major impact on how deeply we are able to enjoy it.
While me may experience the blessing of God, or be in line to receive it, we must be careful about how we regard God's blessing. This morning from Genesis 25:27-34, Bro. Terence Pinder will continue the saga of Jacob and Esau and help us not to fall into the temptation of giving up our blessing by viewing it with contempt.
Greg Speaks on a book recently read "the Unfinished Empire" Pastor Lee Concludes his series in the book of Jude Focusing on Verses20 -25 Due to the longer message this week again there is no Musical Number
Today, Pastor Lee departs from his exposition of the Book of Colossians to address an important current issue. As we celebrate our 40th Anniversary as an Independent Nation, some are demanding that we remove any reference to “Christianity” from our Constitution. In today’s message, Pastor Lee revisits his presentation to the 2000 Colloquium in which he states why he opposes such a move, from both a historical and biblical perspective. Booklets containing his presentation are available for those who desire to have a copy of the complete original presentation.

Tonight Terence Pinder will be looking at the birth narrative of Jacob and Esau in Genesis 25:19-26 and challenging us to receive not only the grace of God, but everything that comes with it as we seek to be faithful.
Greg Speaks on a article in a recent Newsweek Magazine entitled "Natural Justice" Pastor Lee Continues his exposition in the Book of Jude continuing at Verse 14 thru 16 Larry Ford Sings
Today's message focuses on the Apostle Paul's detailed explanation as to how his prayer for believers to "increase in the knowledge of God" is answered by knowing the Word of God. We are truly "standing on holy ground" when we contemplate the high and lofty truths contained in these verses! In the words of the Apostle elsewhere: "Who is adequate for these things?" Only the One Who reveals such truths is also able to help us to comprehend them, so let us depend solely upon Him (the Holy Spirit) this morning as we together seek to increase in our knowledge of God.
Because getting whatever we go after seems to be a rule of life, common sense should be a vital necessity to have. But how common is common sense? Since God “grants a treasure of common sense”, what should common sense living look like in the lives of God’s people? In this evening’s service we will look wisdom’s way.
We all desire and search for genuine intimacy with God, which is the final mark of a truly mature believer in Christ. The Apostle Paul explains exactly how this intimacy can be realized in his amazing Epistle to the Colossians. Today’s message is the beginning of the end of Pastor Lee’s series of messages as Sr. Pastor of CBC.

Today as we celebrate fathers we will look at what it takes to be firmly anchored in Christ."

Colossians 1:16 tells us, “.... by Him everything was created in heaven and on earth .... whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities - all things have been created through Him and for Him.” Do you accept this as truth?

Greg Speaks on a dirty set of windows Pastor Lee Continues his study in Jude at verse 7 and the Good news quartet sings
It’s amazing to see how some of God’s people react when troubles spring up in their lives, especially since God has already told us to expect them because they are coming. When we consider all of God’s promises and provisions, why are we worrying? This morning we will look at God’s alternative to worrying.
The great Apostle Paul was quite familiar with this seat. This is where he was brought before Gallio, who was the proconsul of Achaia at the Bema seat (Acts 18:12). This seat was also what Paul referred to in 2 Corinthians 5:9-11 as the “judgment seat of Christ.” In this context, Paul explains to us that this is where the Christian will receive an evaluation for works done in the body, whether good or bad.(2 Cor. 5:9) So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. (2 Cor. 5:10) For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
"Reaching Boys and Girls with the Gospel of Christ and training them to serve him" In celebrating forty years of Awana, this statement is something for all of us to think about. This morning we will be looking at 1 Corinthians 4:14-17 as Paul shows us what the true meaning of discipleship is. Paul tells the Corinthian church that they are to imitate him as he imitates Christ. The question for us this morning is, "Can you and I say the same?" What are people seeing in your life? We will also look briefly at James 1:22-25

Is it possible that we are living in the midst of a spiritual famine and don't realize it! Can it be that there are spiritual "zombies" and "walking dead" among us? Today's message focuses on a forgotten and neglected prophecy concerning our attitude toward the Word of God that provides a surprising answer to these unexpected, but relevant questions that arise from a careful exposition of our text: Amos 8:1-14
the Human Difference 7 Capital Punishment and Gods Law the retirement of Pope Benedict a young priest and a good Samaritan Anita Knowles sings
Human difference 6 homosexuality and the image of God Disappointment in Easter celebrations Antone and Marrissa Wallace sing
Partaking of the Lord"s supper should be a dynamic spiritual experience. This can only be true if we act responsibly in faith. The service itself may encourage or hinder creative faith. Each church should see it that the external arrangements of the service encourages real participation.
The Apostle Paul makes it very clear that the Christian Faith stands or falls with the physical and literal resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Our Faith thus stands on an established historical FACT, not a "leap of faith" concept. This is a magnificent DOCTRINAL truth; however, the glorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ also provides the believer with some PRACTICAL, EVERYDAY results as well. We'll consider some of these in today's message with the prayer that the Holy Spirit will cause us to enter into the POWER of the resurrection today!

Greg speaks on the Illness of a 2 month old Child and Lessons learned Pastor Lee Speaks on The Triumphal Entry from Luke 19:29-44 Bea Fowler Sings
While work is a gift from God, like every blessing God gives, work can be distorted by sin. Even though there are many without it, there are those who are not doing what they should be doing with the work they have because they want Jobs but don’t want to work. So what is your motivation to work? Is it jealousy, greediness, status seeking or to share its benefits with others.
The last seven days of Jesus in His pre- resurrection life on earth were steps to glory - even though one of them was through intense suffering. This panoramic view of these days helps to reveal His great love for us even as they challenge and invite us to trust in Him as Saviour and Lord.
The Apostle Paul's entire life and ministry was given over to proclaiming the Gospel. He wrote two Books to describe and explain it in detail: Romans and Galatians. In chapter one of the latter [Galatians]. he emphasizes the divine source of this life-changing message and the absolute necessity for people to be sure that their profession of faith in Christ is based on the message that has its source in God and not in man. It is a timely message for a society that is bombarded with "Gospel Messages" that differ in content, but yet all claiming to be "from God." The Apostle helps us to evaluate and discern the true source of such messages.

Are we truly passionate about God? Tonight we will be looking at Paul’s passion for God from Philippians 3:1-11.
Jesus' conversation with the woman at the well is a perfect model and example of how His disciples could share the gospel with the unsaved to "win" them to Christ. We will discuss how to turn ordinary conversations into "evangelistic conversations" as a way of life. The message will follow our Celebration of the Lord's Supper. Please come prepared to "remember" our Lord as He has lovingly requested. As usual, opportunity will be given for dialogue concerning the messages that have been presented in the series to date.
Today's message is a continuation of the ongoing series, "Evangelism: New Testament Methodology." The overall objective for the series is to equip the members of the Incredible Body of Christ at CBC to "get out of the pew," to show love & unity, live righteously and share the gospel to win CONVERTS. then bring them into the church to make them to become "true disciples" who become disciple-makers themselves. "Today's message will focus on practical application of the Biblical principles we have been sharing in previous messages.
The Human Difference Greg speaks on the changes being made to the pledge of the girl guides and scouts
"You are an example. If you were unknowingly under surveillance for one week, what may one expect to see, learn, hear or discover about you at the end of the experience? As a child of God, what would we uncover that is worthy of emulation? Pssssssss.... who is watching you now?"
Greg Speaks on "Locked out of Heaven" Pastor Lee continues the absurdity of the cross special by Bee Fowler
Greg speaks on the drop in church attendance and cites the example of St Matthews Church London Pastor Lee speaks on the absurdity of the Cross Specials By Anita Knowles and Living stones
Pastor Lee continues his focus on how the New Testament teaches evangelism is to be done - and by whom - if the church's mandate to "Make Disciples" is to be fulfilled God's way, and how far the present day church has departed from the New Testament model. As usual, opportunity for response from members via open dialogue will be made available in the evening service.

Cardiff Wales Death of a Child over the Koran Referendum on Gambling in the Bahamas Proverbs 11:10-11 & 14:34 Save our Bahamas
Pastor Lee will conclude his explanation of the process CBC has implemented that will lead participating members toward Christian Maturity and becoming a “True Disciple.” Then, in view of the crucial national event that will take place tomorrow when citizens will take part in the Referendum to Regularize the now illegal web-shop gambling “industry” and whether or not the Government should sponsor a National Lottery, Pastor Lee will speak about the Bible’s admonition: “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people” [Prov. 14:34] and how believers could actually BECOME a “nation exalter” tomorrow.
Tabernacle Lane Cardiff Wales 1 John 5:20-21 Conclusion of Series Anthone Wallace "I am Crucified with Christ"
Continuing the series: "Annual Review & Evaluation," which seeks to answer the question for the Biblical reason for CBC's existence as a local church, Pastor Lee AGAIN focuses on HOW CBC's overall Philosophy of Ministry is designed to PRODUCE God's desired PRODUCT as a local church. It is actually a REPEAT of the presentation that was made at last Lord's Day PM Service. However, the pastors who attended that service, encouraged by the positive input of some members, thought it wise to present it to the "wider" AM attendees as well, as it provides an explanation for the major ministries/ programs of CBC.
Pastor Lee explains how the various planned ministries available to members of CB C are designed to lead those who avail themselves to these ministries to become " true disciples" if faithfully followed.
Echoes of Calvary 1 John 5:13-20 B Pastor Lee Continues his series in 1 John, Greg speaks on a Newsweek article "the origin of the species?" the Calvary Quartet Sings
esus clearly outlined THE most effective strategy for the church to make disciples on a corporate basis, but yet it appears that on the whole, the church has not adopted that strategy and has replaced it with strategy of its own making, hence weakening, if not hindering the fulfillment of His Mandate.
Echoes Of Calvary 1 John 5:13-20A Pastor Lee Continues his Teaching in 1 John, Greg Speaks on New Town Connecticut Shootings and Paul Lowe Sings For those tears I cried
What next, now that "christmas is over?" Today's message, which will also set the stage for a planned emphasis on Discipleship in 2013, proposes that Christmas is, in fact NOT over, but really the beginning point for God's "Master Evangelistic Plan" for the world. Pastor Lee will show, by a clear exposition that the Christmas story, as recorded in Luke 2, is actually “the Cradle of Evangelism.” All of the basic, necessary elements for Evangelism are to be found in this magnificent setting, and shows that God wants us to be aware of these elements because, for the believer, Christmas is to be an ongoing experience. In the words of the song, “the Gift goes on” - through evangelism! Christmas was and is "the birth or cradle of evangelism."
Today's message seeks to "unwrap" the Greatest Christmas Ever Given, Jesus Christ: 'Emmanuel, God with us,' sent from heaven with love. We want to see what we really got for Christmas, so that we will be motivated to celebrate it as we should.
Other ways of asking this question are: "Was or Is Jesus really 'Emmanuel, God With Us'?" "Is Christmas based on a man-made myth?" "Was Jesus really born of a virgin?" "Is a human virgin birth possible?"
Many self-professed "intellectuals" and "progressives" are answering a resounding "NO!" to these questions today, including leaders of major denominations - and unfortunately, many of our young people who are exposed to such teachings and philosophies in the universities they attend. "Older" folk tend to take the FACT of the Virgin Birth as a "given," no questions asked. But that is not true of today's young people.
Today's message is intended to provide assurance for our "older" folk as to the awesomeness of what really happened at the first Christmas, which hopefully, will lead to an even greater motivation for worship and adoration of Emmanuel, as well as to provide a basis for our young people to really understand why the Angel told Mary, "with God, ALL things are possible" - even in the scientific age in which we live.
This is the first of three messages that are intended to focus our attention on the core meaning of Christmas - the Incarnation of The Eternal Son of God and the Cosmic purpose for this "unbelievable,,unthinkable," indescribable event that changed the course of history and the destiny of every man, woman and child on the the face of this planet.
Pastor Allan R. Lee's Weekly Radio Program Today he is focusing on What has been removed from the Christmas Story. Greg Speaks an a Bishops comment "white people are going to Hell"
Three people were privileged to receive the news of Jesus' birth before anyone else. Their respective response is instructive to us today for preparing to celebrate Christmas this year.
If you feel proud and self-sufficient when you are successful and deeply disappointed and miserable when you fail you could be trapped in no win existence with unwise of humanity. This evening's message could help you to avoid the unsatisfied lifestyle so many are struggling with today.
"Be filled with the Spirit...giving thanks" (Eph. 5:18,20). Only the Holy Spirit can truly inspire the standard and substance of true Christian thanksgiving. To attempt to work up thanksgiving by our own efforts is not only a frustrating experience, but is also totally unacceptable to God and insipid to our fellow man. Nothing is more pathetic than to hear someone trying to be thankful without any motivation or inspiration. But when the Holy Spirit fills and floods the life, thanksgiving becomes both inevitable and irresistible.
I am one of the most insidious, dangerous, deceitful, evil and sinful phenomenon to ever take up residence in the human heart. Th Ten Commandments warned you about me. Who am I? Do you know?
A continuation of a Biblical Survey of Lessons from the one of the greatest spiritual renewals recorded in Scripture - the "back to God" movement under King Hezekiah as recorded in 2 Chron. 29-31. Today, our text is chapter 30.
Due to the importance of the issue and the concern of the pastors that members of CBC are Biblically informed concerning it, tonight's message will take the format of a dialogue with members to discuss the Statement on the Gambling Referendum issued by the Pastoral Board last Lord's Day.
Returning guest speaker, Evangelist Bruce Heffner, well known for sharing the Gospel by incorporating music & illusion into the message, will share from God's Word in a message entitled "The Love of God. What it is. What it isn't."
Lessons from the one of the greatest spiritual renewals recorded in Scripture - the "back to God" movement under King Hezekiah as recorded in 2 Chron. 29-31. In part one of the "careful study of this passage, The Urgency Of Spiritual Renewal is emphasized. God has much to say to us through this amazing event, please come out to hear what He has to say to you.
Lessons from the one of the greatest spiritual renewals recorded in Scripture - the "back to God" movement under King Hezekiah as recorded in 2 Chron. 29-31.
Pastor Lee continues his Biblical survey relative to historical references to spiritual renewal, revival or awakening as recorded in the Word of God. His objective is to determine the motivation, requirements and results of such events to serve as the "thus saith the Lord" for members of the incredible body of Christ at CBC to apply both individually and corporately, as we continue our journey toward spiritual maturity and becoming "true disciples," who reflect Christ likeness in every aspect of our life and ministry. Today's text for exposition is Nehemiah 8& 9.
Continuation of AM's message with focus on congregational dialogue re. the future ministry of CBC and the true spiritual state of its member.
Pastor Lee explains from Scripture why we, as a church, should - and even must - pray, if we are to be assured of God's guidance and empowerment re. our future ministry and fulfill our divine mandate to "present everyone mature in Christ." His text is 2 Chron. 7:11-16.
During the past month, via praise and testimonials, we have covered “Five Decades of Praise” as we celebrated the Golden Anniversary of Calvary Bible Church. This church has been a lighthouse for God and His Gospel for half a Century. There’s no doubt that the light shone extremely bright in years gone by. The questions that we must now honestly and fearlessly ask and answer are: Is it as bright today? and Will it be brighter tomorrow – in the next 25 or 50 years, should the Lord tarry? Today’s message will - ONCE AGAIN - give the Biblical directives as to where we should go as a church, what we must do to get there and who are to ones responsible for taking us there.

the Home going service for the Late Franky Pinder. He will be missed but never forgotten
Today, as a part of our "Five Decades of Praise" celebrations, we are pleased and blessed to have one of our former pastors,the Rev. Morris Russell as our guest speaker.We rejoice in that his dear wife, ....Morag ????, is also with him, a direct answer to the prayers of God's people during the past year or so for healing in her life due to a severe and serious illness. Praise God for both of them being with us to celebrate our Golden Anniversary as a local church.
those who have personally witnessed the of 'Mighty Acts of God' during the past fifty years. share with members of the incredible Body of Christ who will be rejoicing in His goodness toward this local church.
As we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Calvary Bible Church, Pastor Lee takes us back to what was undoubtedly THE seminal "mighty act of God" that gave birth to this ministry that has been both the recipient and proclaimer of God's grace to the Bahamas and worldwide during the past fifty years, and challenges us to reflect the essence of that "mighty act of God" as we move into the second half of a century of ministry.
The highlight of the evening will be the showing of a video featuring Sis. Violet Weech, Frank Pinder and Allan Albury, sharing how Pastor and Sister Weech were led of God to begin CBC and the vital role played by Bro. Frank Pinder in helping to establish the work. Opportunity will again be given for those who were a part of the ministry or impacted by it during the first ten years [first decade].
“Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts.” Psalm 145:3-4.
For our purpose, we will regard one decade [10 years] as a “generation” to celebrate our Golden Anniversary as a local church during the month of September. We will focus on praising God for His “mighty acts” manifested in, through and by members of His incredible body here at Calvary Bible Church. Today, we begin with Decade #1 in both the AM & PM Service, using Psalm 145 as our guide. The brief introductory message will focus on the Psalmist’s exhortation to praise God continually throughout all generations for His greatness as revealed through His “mighty acts.” We will trace these “mighty acts” throughout the five decades of our existence as a local church.
If you were, in any way, a part of the first 10 years of Calvary Bible Church, please be prepared to share one specific praise-testimony during the services, begining with the words: “I praise God for ..” then state your specific praise item. {eg., “I praise God for using Pastor Weech to lead me to Christ,” or, “I praise God for using Sister Weech to present “The Old Ship of Zion. I was saved as a result,” etc.}. Our purpose is to honour those who have contributed to this work and to praise God for these past 50 years of ministry.
2 Cor. 12:11-13:14. Bringing his response to the false charges made against him by both his wayward "spiritual children" and the "false Apostles" at Corinth and by a masterful twist of strategy, Paul surprises them by showing that his "acting the fool" had a divine purpose to it all and that in doing so he was being Christ-like all along. The entire process was designed to accomplish the divine objective and end - purpose for his ministry - and mine - as well!
this request from one of the disciples in Luke 11:1 gave evidence of real spiritual insight. we must learn how to pray. while praying is as natural to the christian as breathing is to a mammal, even breathing must be studied and practiced if it is to be correct. Singers and speakers work on there breathing so that they get the most out of there voice and don't injure themselves. the fact that we have been praying since childhood is no guarantee that we really know how to pray effectively
Have you considered recently the incredible price God paid for your emancipation from sin? have you pondered the extravagantly secure love God displayed toward us?
Paul continues his remarkable "treatise" on "Christian Boasting" by drawing upon lessons God taught him through a "thorn in the flesh" that taught him genuine humility and the truth that "[God's] Grace is sufficient.
After presenting the Christian's Magna Carte for Giving under the New Covenant in chapters 8 # 9, Paul now returns to defending himself and his ministry against the false accusations of false teachers who had infiltrated the Corinthian church he had founded as "the Apostle to the Gentiles." In doing so, he has also given us abiding principles for responding in a Godly way to such accusations in our own lives and ministries as Christians.
Our special guest speaker is Dr. Joshua Madasu, Director, The Baptist Missions Centre, Tiruvuru, Andhra Pradesh, India. He is accompanied y his wife and daughter, who will minister in song. A love offering will be received at the close of the service for his ministry.
oday's message, focusing especially on chapter 9, is the conclusion of the exposition of these two chapters that reveal in detail, one of the major changes that came about as a result of Jesus' inauguration of the New Covenant - that of the stewardship of His resources allotted to us as His people. The Apostle makes it clear that GIVING under the New Covenant goes "beyond tithing" and is characterized by JOY and gracious liberality, rather than by "constraint" or pressure and a "grudgingly" attitude.

2 Cor. 7:2-16. Paul's response to the Corinthian's obedience to his instructions highlights the joy "godly repentance" brings and the disappointment "worldly repentance" produces.
2 Cor. 6:11-7:1. In this wonderful passage, the Apostle Paul tells us why believers should live holy lives and to be what we are!
The world needsmen of honour, men of courage who will stand for righteousness and justice, even when no one is watching. Today we honor such fathers and inspire those who aspire to such dizzying heights of leadership in our homes, our communities, our country, and indeed the world.
In this amazing passage of the Word of God, Paul defines for us the true Biblical perspective on the "Purpose Driven Life," and why it should radically change our perspective on our lives as Christians.
Response from the Congregation to the AM Message. Opportunity to comment on, question and/or positively "criticize" the content of the message [or other messages], using the Bible, as the Bereans did, to see if what Pastor Lee taught "is so" according to the Word.
Something strange - if not crazy - is going on in the Bahamas. Gambling is illegal in the Bahamas for Bahamian Citizens. Yet our Government is considering holding a referendum to decide whether or not it should enforce this long established law.!
In actuality, it is questioning the very reason for its existence: to protect law abiding citizens by prosecuting law-breaking citizens "to the full extent of the law." What should be the Christian's response to such an action. That will be the focus on both Am & PM messages today, the PM being given over primarily to questions, comments and response relative to the AM presentation.

This morning’s service begins with dedication of some of our “youngest” to Lord and also features highlights from recent Ignition events, special music and a message from guest speaker, Christopher Cartwright.
tonight, Terence Pinder speaks on “The days we live in can give the appearance that righteous living produces only frustration with no benefit. The wicked and unrighteous seem to get away with anything and we can wonder if God is concerned. However, Psalm 94 teaches us that we can persevere in faithfulness because God will avenge every wrongdoer and protect the righteous.”
We extend a very special welcome to all moms! This morning we celebrate you and especially thank you for all that you do! Sit back, relax & enjoy the celebration and a special message from Bro. Craig Knowles.
Most believers look forward to the "Far better" experience of being "present with the lord" after death. Paul had three choices re. his own death, surprisingly, his preference was better than the "far better" one he described to the Corinthians. His surprising preference teaches us why "this mortal [body] must put on immortality" and the importance of our humanity to God. This amazing truth should encourage us to treat our bodies better than mot of us do "because we are worth it."
These are all symbols used by the Apostle Paul to explain the impact of the New Covenant upon both his and every believer's life. He describes how we are to handle the Word of God and how to be resilient in living for Christ in a Christ-rejecting world.
Jesus' inauguration of the New Covenant by His death on Calvary radically changed the way believers are to worship the Triune God, unfortunately, many still cling to the old way [Covenant] of worshiping, both personal and corporate. Do we at CBC have the courage and faithfulness to the Word to make the changes that are necessary to live as New Covenant demands - and Christ died to implement?
This morning, Dr. James Smith will conclude the message he began at our Good Friday service which focussed on Jesus’ heart at His crucifixion. Dr. Smith is the cardiologist who brought Pastor Lee “back to life” during his angiogram last year. He is not only a renowned cardiologist who heads up a leading cardiac center in Tampa, Florida, but he is also a teaching pastor at Idlewild Baptist Church in Tampa & a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary.

Today His Message will explore how it is that David, a Man with such faults, could have a heart the reflects the very heart of God
The Apostle Paul expounds on the vast differences between the Old Covenant (Law/Legalism) and the New (Gospel/Grace) in showing the difference between the ministry of the false teachers (who had infiltrated the Corinthian church and challenges his apostleship) and his own ministry. The practical impact and application to our lives are enormous - and "glorious."

The Apostle shares his heart as he defends himself against false accusations from church members, revealing the pressures of a pastor who seeks to balance his love for his people while remaining true to the Word of God. Text: 2 Cor. Chapter 2.
Ignitions First debate Night Topics Should Christian teens Date Should Christians get Tattoos
Paul asked a spiritually introspective question concerning a seemingly defeated war between the two natures of man. The renewed and redeemed spirit of man that desires to serve the Law of God and the corrupted flesh that desires the law of sin. “Who will set me free from the body of this death?” Paul asked. Pastor Michelo Lully will lead us in discovering what hope and victory we have as we wage war [through and by the power of the Holy Spirit] against our sinful nature.
Upon completion in Ephesians chapter one Pastor Mitch Pauses to review what we have learned
Our special guest speaker today is Professor Errol Miller. Please see his bio in our bulletin. I deem it a joy and privilege to have him speak to the saints today, even though I, myself, will not be present, due to a long standing commitment to be the guest speaker at the Annual World Missions Conference at Grace Community Church. Professor Miller and I are mutually acquainted with several Christian brethren in Jamaica, where and among whom he has ministered for many years. Please make it a point to personally "extend a hand of fellowship to both he, his wife,......... and their daughter, ............
Speaking from John 17 and 20, brother Miller will focus on God's commissioning of His Church to share the Gospel Message to the world, beginning with what he calls, "Jesus' first graduating class," the Apostles. I have no doubt whatsoever that you will be both blessed and challenged as he ministers to you today through the empowerment of The Holy Spirit. Selah!
The study continues in chapter 5 verse 10. Paul teaches that legalism is disobedience to the truth. The Galatians had made a good start in the Christian life, but someone had hindered them. It was the Judaizers, the legalists, the false apostles. By accepting their erroneous teachings, the saints were disobeying the truth of God.
It is always our joy and privilege as the people of God to encounter Him through worship and be edified with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Out Minister of Music, Anthone Wallace, will utilize a total multimedia presentation to aid us in expressing our gratitude and praise to the Triune God.
Today’s message is the first in a planned series on Paul’s Second Letter to the Corinthians. In the opening chapter, the apostle provides answers to the much asked question, “Why Do Christians Suffer?” or, on a more general level, “Why do good people suffer?”
Proverbs 6:16 says seven things are an abomination to the Lord & the first is haughty eyes. We don’t hear that expression these days but in its simplist term it means pride. What role has it played and does it play in aborting spiritual growth in the life of a beliver? We will look at the lives of Uziah & Hezekiah and see how we can avoid such a disaterous misstep as they did.
At the commencement of the New Year, and one that marks the beginning of 50 years of Calvary's ministry here on Collin's Avenue, Pastor Lee once again reminds us of the Biblical reason and purpose of our existence as a local church. "We must be united in our vision to accomplish our mission"
All of our students will be given the opportunity to share what God is doing in their lives, and ALL adults will be given the opportunity to pray for them - our leaders of today and tomorrow. Dr. Sandy Lee will also share concerning her cross cultural ministry with Navigators on college campuses in the US. We encourage you to come and show your support and to encourage our young people. They are the “keys” to a better tomorrow for our country.
Children love to hear stories, as Christians, we can utilize this interest to "tell them the story of Jesus,' but we must assure that they hear the story of the true meaning of Christmas and tell it to them in such a way that they will pass it on to their children. We must establish a tradition that will ensure that the future generations continue to "tell the story of Jesus and His love" - and that they hear "the true story and nothing but the true story." That's our focus on this Christmas Day, which I prefer to call "incarnation Day." "Happy birthday, Jesus!' Selah!
Tonight we gather to ceelbrate the birth of the One who is the Light of the word. We will come to worship God and His Son, Jesus Christ, born in Bethlehem of Judea, the Light of the World. But even as we celebrate His birth, we are reminded of the fact that because, "He was born unto us a Savior" He was born to die as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. We therefore, must "remember Him in His death" also.
During this time of the year, all of those otherwise dormant desires rise to the surface of our WANT LIST. Think about this question, "What is it, above all else, that you want this Christmas Season. Listen to a sheep's response from Psalm 27.
Contentment is something that we learn...we must learn...and in this Christmas season with all of the glitz and glamor abound, how are we to be as believers. The commercials tell us to buy this and buy that... How do we live in such a way that God gets the glory whether we have a lot or a little. The answer is found in understanding our relationship with Christ!
Do you have some habit that is too big for you to break; walls that hem you in on every side? After the death of Moses, God appointed a servant of God named Joshua and God told him, “to be strong and courageous.” He did as God said and after seven days they “SHOUTED” and the walls came down. Bro. Brad Smith will be ministering to us from the Word today.
In this final chapter of his First Epistle to the Corinthians, the Apostle Paul presents a potpourri of instructions and admonitions relative to the proper functioning of a local congregation of God's people in a loving and orderly fashion.
1 Corinthians 15:29-58." Today's message is the final of three Expositions of this magnificent chapter dealing with the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ and it's vital significance to the very existence of Christianity. Today's message focuses on the Apostle Paul's answer to two important questions: HOW are believers
This is perhaps the most interesting, all embracing passages in the Book of 1 Corinthians. It covers the entire spectrum and sequence of Biblical Revelation and introduces the reader to the mysteries of the after life and the nature of their resurrected body - which will be the focus of next week's message, Lord willing. However, today's focus is upon the sequence and nature of the various resurrections as revealed in the Word of God.
Evangelist Bruce Heffner, an accomplished illusionist and trumpet player, will minister our children this eening.
n this 37th. message of his ongoing verse-by-verse exposition of 1 Corinthians, Pastor Lee approaches Paul's extensive teaching on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and as well, the Resurrection of those who believe in Him. This is "the Bedrock Doctrine of Christianity." The Apostle uses an entire chapter to explain it's essentially and in do so, gives us solid reason to have hope in that not only was Christ raised, but so shall we be also.
In this 36th verse-by-verse expository message on Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians, Pastor Lee continues to explain the Apostle's specific instructions as to how members of the incredible body of Christ can show how the love he described in chapter 13 as "the more excellent way," can be demonstrated when we meet together as a church.
In this 36th verse-by-verse expository message on Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians, which brings us to chapter 14, Pastor Lee explains the Apostle's specific instructions as to how members of the incredible body of Christ can show how the love he described in chapter 13 as "the more excellent way" can be demonstrated when we meet together as a church.
Pastor Lee steps to "The Preacher's Podium" after a 5 month absence - and begins where he left off in his exposition of Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians - chapter 13, verse 8, which focuses on THE greatest need in the world and the church!
Ephesians 1: 4b-8 God, the Father has predetermined according to His good pleasure to bring every believer into His household as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ. Being redeemed by Jesus’ blood our sins [as believers] are forgiven according to God’s over-abounding grace, which He richly pours over us. As a believer in Christ, a member of God’s household, what is your response to this reality?
While suffering still remains a mystery to the people of God, Christians today must experience life just like Job did - one day at a time and without full answers to all of the questions of life. The big question is, will we trust God completely regardless of what happens to us, like Job did? Or will we surrender to temptation by saying that God really doesn't care? This mornings message will remind us that Job’s suffering was not only a test, but also a revealer of character intended to instruct, educate and actually teach the Christian how to die to self.
Looking at life in a realistic way while examining our hearts to expose how our desires and how and what we choose are the difference between Light and Darkness.
What's in a name? We call ourselves Christians what does that mean to you; or more importantly, to God? Let's listen loudly to God's answer to these questions. This message will be concluded in this evening's service.
What's in a name? We call ourselves Christians - what does that mean to you; or more importantly, to God? Let's listen loudly to God's answers to these questions.
God has a mission for every Christian: to make disciples of Jesus Christ. This morning's message will look at times when the people of God neglected their mission and challenges us to not get complacent in our own personal Christian walk, but to remember that one of our main goals as believers is to reach others with the gospel.
This evening's message will examine the first step in having an effective ministry to unbelievers: it all starts with our own heart condition. As we purify our hearts and abide in Christ, we prepare ourselves to be used by God in his work of saving souls.
This message (recognizing the July is our independence month) explores how we can take God up on His offer of being in a covenant with Him and become a city set on a hill, a light to the nations rather than a pawn caught between international powers.
1Jn 4:18 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear.”
The problem of fear is as old as the existence of man. From the moment our first parents separated themselves from their Creator through an act of disobedience, man has been hunted by fear. And it is evident to day.
“Midnight” is a sort of “in between time”, a time when the world slumbers. The opportunities of yesterday are gone, buried forever in the debris of history. The possibilities of tomorrow have not yet arrived. Let us together glean through the scriptures this morning and see what the Bible has to say about “Midnight.”
The Pharisees are one of the main groups consistently shown in the New Testament to be at odds with Jesus during his earthly ministry, but ironically, it is modern Christians who must commonly fall into the pattern of the Pharisees and legalism. This morning Pastor Terence Pinder will explore one of Jesus' encounters with Pharisees in Matthew 15, its ugly results, and how we can avoid falling into their practices.
Abiding, being filled, the anointing,...what thoughts come to mind when one hears these words in the media,around town or even in the church. When there is so much confusion and opinions within the Body of Christ regarding these terms, should they mean anything to us at all? Is this something that we do or has it been done already? The way that we comprehend or understand these truths can and will affect the way we conduct ourselves while here on this earth! We will look at what the Bible teaches and allow God to tenderize our hearts to go out and live out those truths for His glory. This is a 2-part message from Bro. Patrick Rutherford that will prayerfully spur us all on to walk in a manner that will be pleasing to the Lord!

Join us for an exciting Father's Day service as we focus on the theme: "Following in My Father's Footsteps".
As we look at the world and our own lives, the reality of suffering is inescapable. Fortunately, God knows suffering is inevitable for us and has given us guidelines for how we can endure suffering in faithful and victorious ways. Pastor Terence Pinder will explain the responses we must resist and the responses we must engage in as laid out in 1 Peter 4:12-19.
Even though the world is broken and never quite works out the way we desired, God still encourages us to enjoy the time we are given. Tonight, Pastor Terence will take a brief look at the book of Ecclesiastes and Solomon's exhortation to make the most of the brief time we have been given.
“Ask, and it will be given to you;… For everyone who asks receives.” Matt.7:7,8. Is this a blank cheque for believers to get anything they want from God? Some believe that it is. God is willing and able to give and He wants to give every good and perfect gift to you as long as it’s according to His will! It is up to us to keep asking so we can receive it! How sad it is that so many Christians never enjoy God’s favor, simply because they are not serious about asking! Have you asked today?
Reflecting Christ likeness to the body of Christ and the world at large through the manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit.
The Lord Jesus was teaching that there are two aspects of the Christian witness which result from the life of blessedness. One is spiritual influence, a reference here to “salt” (see 5:13); the other is spiritual radiance, speaking of the “light” (5:14–16). In terms of spiritual experience, salt represents the Spirit of God in the life, while light suggests the Son of God in the life
A Night Of Special Music Brought to you by the Music and Worship team Of Calvary Bible Church
Jesus said of false teachers, "you will know them by their fruit" (Matt 7:20 NASB). He said of Christians, "My true disciples produce much fruit. This brings great glory to my Father' (John 15:8 NLT). In the same way trees are consistent in the kind of fruit they produce. Christian must consistently exhibit good behavior and high moral character as they seek to live out the truths of Scriptures. What does the fruit of daily life say to people around you?
"Easy yoke, light burden and rest for your souls." Jesus invites all who are weary and heavily burdened to take up His yoke. What does this mean for us today: for both the unbeliever and the saved?

Pastor Lee will discuss several crucial reasons why the Resurrection of Jesus Christ sets Christianity uniquely apart from every other religious faith.
What is “Good Friday” all about? I don’t mean the day itself, the holiday. The hot cross buns. The fish. But the significance of the day. Why it is memorialized? Why, you say, that’s easy. It’s to commemorate the death of Christ. The day Christ died. That’s my point. That’s what I’m asking: what does the death of Christ mean? Why is it so significant? How should we respond to it? Is it sacrilegious to go on the beach in commemoration of this event? To go fishing? Or to go to Miami to go shopping? Is that what Christ’s death was all about? Now of course, you would say, ”Absolutely not!"
Our multi-generational choir, Kerugma, and our drama ministry are pleased to present this dramatic modern-day musical.

Are we ready to re-sort our 'fave five' list?

So join us for a time of rejoicing as we "un-wrap" the gift of music once again to edify each other, thereby bringing glory to our God.

Words cannot describe the content of this message, but its purpose is to motivate us to "worship the newborn King" because of Who He is, not only because of what He has done.
When it comes to Christmas and what went into the plan that made it possible, our thoughts and God’s are as far apart as the heaven are above the earth. We think of material gifts wrapped in pretty paper, but God thinks of a divine gift, wrapped in human flesh. We think of fun & parties, God thinks of pain and humiliation. We think of earth alone, God thinks of the universe. We think of what is material and temporal, God thinks of what is spiritual and eternal. Today's message is designed to help us get in line with God's thoughts and to "think His thoughts after Him" with regards to true "reason for the season."
As governments and systems change with staggering speed, uncertainty, and instability, many people are experiencing anxiety or sorrow about where to find tried and true help. But regardless of what the case may be God's redeemed people can consider themselves to be safe and strengthened in Him in whom there is always enough help. Psalm 46 breathes this calm confidence and triumphant trust in every verse. Do you have it?
Join the adventure of studying and exploring the words of a prophet (Hosea) and the reign of a king, (Josiah). The message today is still the same and it is absolutely essential for us to understand the IMPORTANCE and VALUE of knowing the truth.
People around the world are and have been celebrating this season of Thanksgiving. Rarely we give thanks for the discipline we’ve experienced in our lives. However, for the believer in Christ this shouldn’t be that unusual. Quite often it is. As we examine the divine purpose and glorious product of God’s discipline in Hebrews 12:1-11, hopefully we’ll walk away with thankful hearts toward our loving, heavenly Father.

A vital, but often overlooked truth regarding the Lord’s Supper is taught in this passage.

The nauseating danger of comfortable and complacent Christianity leads to utter rejection from Jesus Christ.
