McLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchA Perfect Salvation for a Dysfunctional People - Genesis 21:14-21 Of all the ways to make application and find understanding in this story of Abraham, Sarah, and Isaac, alongside Abraham, Hagar, and Ishmael, the word dysfunctional comes to mind. Before we came to the dysfunction of Abraham’s household, we had already had the dysfunctional homes of Adam, Noah, and Lot, just to name a few. The one thing all of these had in common (besides their trouble with living true to God’s way) is that they are all people whom God loved, claimed, and delivered from their foolish ways. Thank God for grace! Of...2024-10-0249 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Faithfulness of God - Genesis 21:1-21 This entire section of scripture (Genesis 21:1-8) is one of the most encouraging, excitable, and reassuring passages you can find. It declares with a mighty voice, “God Keeps His Promises!”In the life and pilgrimage of Abraham and Sarah, this day is a day like no other they had experienced and shared.  As God had promised, “It’s a Boy!”  Twenty-five long years of waiting, sometimes running ahead of God, sometimes failing to trust God, but never, ever, not once, being forsaken or forgotten by God! And now, here is a passage dripping with joy and gratitude!God is Faith...2024-09-2435 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchLife in the Last Days - 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11 This instruction is coming from an apostle who very much believed Jesus would return in his time, and is written to a church (Thessalonica) which was very taken with the possibility of Jesus coming any moment. As such, if this was the pertinent instruction for them 2000 years ago, how much more ought we to take this to heart now? Believe and Speak the Truth that Christ is Coming! Behave and Be Together in this Truth that Christ is Coming! What would that require of us today? How should the church look and function...2024-09-1831 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven - Matthew 18:1-6In kingdom language, being truly humble means to be as a little child. To be great in God’s kingdom, that is, to be someone with power, influence, and leadership, you must humble yourself. What does it mean to “humble yourself?” There is no need to speculate about it, Jesus tells and shows us, as he brings before the disciples a “little child.” Clearly, there are lessons we need to learn about kingdom greatness and true humility, from the nature of little children.2024-09-1147 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchO, Worship the King! - Psalm 45Psalm 45 is not simply a song about Solomon, it is a song about the True King of all Kings! Christ is the King Eternal and he is worthy. All earthly, all national, all political, all social allegiances, affections, and attentions being subjected to our first allegiance, affection and attention, which is our King and his Kingdom! 2024-09-0437 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Journey of Faith, The Sojourn of Fear - Genesis 20When we fear man more than we fear God, and put self-preservation ahead of obedience, we not only compromise our own soul, but we put those we love in danger. Yet, the true story of this chapter, really of all Abraham’s life and all those who love God, is not our failure, but God’s faithfulness! 2024-08-2737 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchCan Fear Lead You to Make the Right Choice? Psalm 3Every emotion was given to us by God, and therefore, serves a purpose to draw us closer to God. We certainly see many instances where fear lead an individual to making a terrible decision, but is there a lesson to be learned from someone who channeled fear in the right way? 2024-08-2729 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Fruit of Fear - Genesis 19:30-38 Proverbs 16:25 says, “There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” The entire account of Lot’s life is that “way that seemeth right” but ending in death played out. The end of the story, the end of Genesis 19, as awful as it is to read and take in, demonstrates this truth, that fear was driving this whole ugly mess. The Seed of Sin and the Fruit of Fear. Destroyed lives, ugliness in the heart and home, a man’s life fading into the background of defeat and sadness...2024-08-2041 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThere is a Way! - Proverbs 16:25/Isaiah 35 Proverbs 16:25 tells us, "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." How easily any one of us can fall into and travel along this pathway of what seems right to us. Our reason is brought into play. To reason is the ability of the mind to think, process, and make judgments, or decisions about what to believe or what to do. All of this is affected by something, or some things, or more importantly, someone or other. Human reason is not evil, it is just flawed, marked by t...2024-08-2035 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Lot in Sodom is a Lot Like Me - Genesis 19:1-16 Abraham and Lot represent two sides of our life, the walk in the Spirit and the walk in the flesh. Abraham reminds me of that part of us which has been made new, the new creature, the new heart. Lot reminds me of that part of us which is still grasping for this world and clinging to the desires of the flesh.  People of God are not immune to the world, or to the temptations of the devil, we are quite capable of being drawn into the sin. Being forgiven, being born again in Christ, does not m...2024-08-1448 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchViewing God as He Deserves to be Viewed - Hosea 5 Israel, more than any other nation, had seen God reveal Himself time and time again, yet they continually forsake God and commit adultery against Him. What is the response? Not only does God allow judgment, He brings judgment. The purpose of that judgment is twofold. To punish the wicked, who outright reject God, or who claim Him in name only, but in truth have no part with Him. To draw His true people back to Him. 2024-08-1343 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchWhat Can You Do When You’ve Done All You Can Do? – Genesis 18:16-33 When you find yourself in a place where you really want to help someone, you want them to be well, to be safe, spiritually you want to be saved, to know God, but you have done all you know to do, what do you do? In this incredibly intimate account of Abraham’s intercession for the city of Sodom, and for his nephew Lot, we see Abraham, less the Fixer, and more the Truster: Testing God’s Heart by Exposing His Own Trusting God’s Will as Greater Than His Own 2024-08-1341 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchIt is Past Time (But Not Too Late) to Take God Seriously! - Genesis 19:15-38 There are solemn warnings and priceless encouragements to be lifted out of this text, and we need to hear them today. There are four truths I want to show you here, two truths about God and two truths about each one of us here today, no matter our spiritual condition. All together these four truths will make it clear that we must take God seriously: God’s Judgement is Still Certain God’s Mercy is Still Available Our Compromise is Always Deadly Our Holiness is Always Life 2024-08-1340 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchFather Abraham, Fathered by God – Genesis 18:1-15 Charles Spurgeon, known for his exceptional preaching is also known for his extraordinary battles with depression, once said, “Excess of joy or excitement must be paid for by subsequent depressions.” That is not a rule, but it surely is a proven fact of life. Of course, truer than the upper-downer days is a God who is unchanging, who is always faithful and true, and a huge part of the story of Abraham is a lesson about learning to trust God, letting God grow us up through the highs and lows, the victories and failures. Being fit to fath...2024-08-1334 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchLearning to Trust God Through the Highs and Lows - Genesis 18:1-19 There is much in this chapter to demonstrate how God honors those who honor him. He honors Abraham as his friend. Yet, it cannot be overlooked that this great visit from God which Abraham received, brought with it both elation and depression. In this single day Abraham receives the final confirmation he has long waited for, and then the notification that God is about to bring judgement on a city where his nephew Lot is dwelling. Charles Spurgeon, known for his exceptional preaching, as well as his extraordinary battles with depression, once said, “Excess of joy or ex...2024-07-1834 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchWould You Be a Preacher Like Jesus? - Luke 4:1-31 Who would dispute this statement, that the greatest preacher ever was, is Jesus? Today, we are ordaining a young man into the ministry of preaching, and more specifically, pastoring, and there is no greater example of pastoring than Jesus, who said of himself, "I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep" (John 10:11). There is no higher example to follow in ministry than Jesus himself. The apostle Paul agrees, "Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which...2024-07-1848 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchCalled to a Spiritual Life - Romans 8 (Part Two) Romans 8 is a manifesto on the call of all who are saved to live the Spiritual Life. Not that it is a choice, in the strictest sense, because all who are "in Christ Jesus" will walk "after the Spirit." What is a "Spiritual Life" then? A spiritual life is one in which the believer, indwelt by God's Spirit, is daily acting in faith, being moved by hope, and growing in identity with, awareness of, and obedience to Jesus Christ. Spiritual life is a life in which we are being led by, filled with, and taught by the Holy Spirit...2024-06-1335 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchCalled to a Spiritual Life - Romans 8 (Part One)Romans 8 is a manifesto on the call of all who are saved to live the Spiritual Life.

Do not mistake God's intentionality for slowness. God is not slow. He made light speed! The question is, at what speed are we living life? The speed of sound, the speed of the Smartphone, or the speed of God? There is a great lesson we can take from this study, that you, me, nor anyone is going to hurry God! When it comes to God’s plan for the world, for your life, or for your child's life, you can disobey God, you ca...2024-05-2841 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchNo One Said Life Was Easy - 2 Timothy 2:1-6Every phase of life offers us new challenges and difficulties. That's the reality of living in a broken, fallen world. So what are we to do? How do we not only survive, but thrive in the difficult life we have not only been given, but called to?2024-05-2855 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchHow Do We Wait Well on God? Genesis 16:1-4Ten years is a long time to wait, particularly when you have trusted God, uprooted your family, and journeyed by faith into a place you had no knowledge of and no connection to, other than the promise from God that he would make you the father of a great nation by giving you a son. Ten years is long enough to take anyone to the precipice of either Getting Ahead of God or of Abandoning their Faith altogether! Yet, waiting has a way of weeding out the faithlessness. When we wait on God this is not killing...2024-05-0145 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAbraham: Growing in Grace to Greatness - Genesis 14What you have before you, in this Action/Adventure chapter, is a man who is growing in grace, a man who is being changed by his walk with God. It has been months, perhaps years, since that flight in fear down to Egypt. Over that time Abram has been learning to trust God. In this chapter there are five marks of that growth evident in how Abram responds to the crisis.2024-04-1654 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAbraham: Backtracking from the Backslide - Genesis 13We have all heard it said, "He/she has backslided." What does that mean? In short, there was once a time and place in life where that person was walking closer to God than they are now. There are people, perhaps listening right now, who are living like Abram in Egypt. You have compromised your faith, fearful that life was not going to work out, or that you would lose what you had, and in desperation you have turned to the world for support, supply, or comfort.  Maybe you have made hasty decisions, gotten a...2024-04-0945 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAbraham: An Early Trial of Faith Teaches Reliance on Grace - Genesis 12:10-20What makes a hero? Heroes are not the ones who soar in at times of trouble and rescue us from all our troubles. Heroes are not the people who look, act, and think perfectly. They are not flawless; they are not always right. That would not be a hero, that would be an imagined idol.  Heroes are people who fall but do not stay down. Heroes are people who make mistakes but learn from them. Heroes are real people, with real weaknesses, who, by way of trial and error, recovery and resolve, become stronger a...2024-03-2646 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAbraham, The Journey Begins (Or Resumes) - Genesis 12:1-9 The Journey Begins, or Resumes, everyone of us needs one of those things to be true about our life. Maybe today is the day you will decide to leave the old life behind, the worldly life, the soul vexing life. Or maybe, for some of us, today is the day we are done with settling for partial obedience and we are going to grab what God gave us, and move forward in God’s call, totally surrendered to the life he has intended for us. Either way, one word that describes it is Leaving! 2024-03-2646 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAbraham, The Call to the Pilgrim Life - Genesis 11 The greatest cost of the world on our lives, is that it takes us from the love of the Father! When we are pursuing the godless systems, the lusts and pride of socially organized flesh, we are not loving our Father as we should and could. Is there a greater transgression than this?  And so, we need to consider this Babel of the world and what towers of godlessness may be standing in our life and really commit to asking God to bring them down so that we, like Abram, can find ourselves on the journey of the pilgrim l...2024-03-1947 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchHow to Have a Heart for the World - Matthew 9:35-38We do not naturally love those that are not family and friends. We tend to shy away from loving the unlovely and sinful, but those are the exact people Jesus has called us to love. In this message, Missionary Dwight Tomlinson offers four words to show how Christians can have a heart for the world: Look Pray Give Go 2024-03-0530 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchAre We Building Up, or Tearing Down? Romans 14:19The church plays a vital, yet often overlooked, role in the growth and development of the believer. We have relegated this vital institution as little more than a convenient gathering and social activity. But what does edifying truly look like? How are we, each day, to allow others to play a role in our spiritual development, as well as intentionally enter into the same work in others? 2024-02-2740 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Commission Has Never Been Greater (But the Hour is Certainly Later) Matthew 28:28-30As a church we have had, in recent times, a heavy focus on that middle part of the Great Commission, “teaching them to observe (that is, to do) all things whatsoever I have commanded you” (v.20a) and we have not “scratched the surface” of the need in this. But, mission month is the call to pull back from my emphasis on the training side of discipleship, and remember that there is an evangelistic side of discipleship. In fact, doing all the things which Jesus said, would include, in a large way, the work of evangelism, and not just a corpora...2024-02-2731 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMission 24: Extend Our Reach - 2 Corinthians 10 (Part 2)Let us leave on the table, as a point of fact, that not everyone in the local assembly is called to “Go” somewhere as a missionary. Yet, we can , and must, consider these three things which every one of us are called to… 1. Give in the Spirit 2. Grow in the Faith 3. Glory in the Lord 2024-02-0641 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMission 24: Extend Our Reach - 2 Corinthians 10 (Part 1)As you look at much of the missions work and the missionaries going out today, most of them are going to places where the gospel has already gone. Now, we are glad for what has been done and is still being done in all those places, but what about the other places? Current reports have it at anywhere from 1-3.5% of missions giving goes to unreached areas. I believe Paul had a relentless drive to take the gospel to the people and places the gospel had not yet been, not for his own glory...2024-02-0641 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchLive Ready To Be Ready - Mathew 24:32-51Be Ready! Jesus says, because you know I am returning, and you know now what will happen, what to expect, you know that you must be ready for that day. But since we do not know when the day will be we must live ready every day in order to be ready for that day. How many of you, like me, would say, “I am not living as ready as I know I should, and to be fair to my heart, I am not living as ready as I know I could?” But we can...2024-02-0636 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchStay Under the Yoke of Jesus - Matthew 11:2-30 Jesus invites all to come to him, to follow him, and to abide in him. He says Come and be Saved! Follow and be Saved! Abide and be Saved!  We Come to Him to be Received, we Follow Him to be Remade, and we Abide in Him to be Resourced, For, only as we abide in Him do we truly receive everything needed to bear fruit for the glory of God, and everything required to live real life! Why is it then, that we sometimes seem to be under s...2024-01-2349 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchThe Foundation of our Identity in Christ - Psalm 11:3Can anyone claim to be righteous? In this message, Missionary John Alvies reminds us that every Christian is righteous because Christ is the foundation of our righteousness. Jesus Christ became sin for us so that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. 2024-01-1619 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchPrayer According to Jesus - Luke 11:1-4Here we are, one week into the New Year and for most, it is customary to begin the year setting some goals, deciding to live better, to become more of the person we long to truly be. Now, it makes sense to start with prayer because prayer is where all our life in the kingdom of God, in the way of Christ, must begin. There is absolutely nothing else which is more fundamental and necessary to the devout life than prayer. And in terms of learning to do all the things Jesus taught and did, there is nothing for w...2024-01-0946 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchA Good Plan for a Great Start - James 4No matter to what level you may make plans, set goals, or determine some resolutions for the New Year, we likely all have some expectations and hopes as we come into it. James offers us a very powerful approach to planning for the New Year in James 4, but long before we can even start planning, we have some other matters we must deal with!2024-01-0343 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchWhat if Jesus Had Never Been Born? - Hebrews 2In the movie, It’s a Wonderful Life, George Bailey thinks everyone in his life would have been better off had he never been born, but he gets the chance to see what the world would have been like without him. George affects innumerable lives, like a ripple through a pond, but think of the unfathomable hole in the world had there never been the birth of Jesus. It's quite a weighty thing to consider, and in a word, we might think, hopeless.   But thank God for the unspeakable gift, Christ was born and beca...2023-12-1235 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMissionary Charlie Russell: Spiritual Winter - Psalm 74:17In this message, Missionary Charlie Russell describes how God uses spiritual winter seasons in our lives to grow as believers.

The devil, Satan, is a Destroyer, a Devourer, and a Deceiver! He will split us, he will stalk us, and he will slaughter us, one by one, or in a great big swoop, if we let him. Yes, IF WE LET HIM! Ephesians 4:27, Neither give place to the devil.We have power and authority in Jesus name, to oust the destruction, to overcome the devouring, and to obliterate the deception.

Phase One is where the old and useless or hazardous parts get identified, ripped out, torn down, and taken away. Next, and only after all that, comes Phase Two, where the new, better, stronger, and beautiful is brought in and put together, so that the end result is the very essence of the word Renovate…“to restore to a former better state.” So, here we are, with this challenge before us, in this season as a church, "Will we Make the Turn?" 2023-11-2143 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchIntercessory Prayer: Praying for God's Will on Behalf of Someone ElsePrayer can sometimes feel like nothing more than a religious exercise. Yet the pages of Scripture remind us time and again that prayer is a powerful weapon in the arsenal of the child of God. The key is understanding both the purpose of intercessory prayer, as well as its practice.  2023-11-1439 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist ChurchWe Need to Make the Turn (Part Two) - 2 Peter 1That phrase may resonate with you in different ways, particularly for sports fans, as "making the turn" is often used to express a point in the event where a significant moment arrives that action must be taken and by that, success or failure will be determined. The church is at that point. The turn is being made by so many, but there is a right turn and a wrong turn.

In our day, when we hear about someone’s enthusiasm, or being enthusiastic, we think of excitement, celebration, just spun up about something, mostly in a good sense. It comes from a Greek word meaning, to be “inspired or possessed by a god.”  A way we might understand it is, to be in God and God in me in whatever I am doing. Or as they said about Jesus, “He has been consumed by God!” 2023-10-2432 minMcLeansville Baptist ChurchMcLeansville Baptist Church80th Homecoming with Dr. Alton BealThis week's sermon is from McLeansville Baptist Church's 80th Homecoming.

The purpose of our existence is to worship God! Our life will never be satisfying until we are living fully for His Glory!  Creation knows it! The heavens, the oceans, the forests, the mountains, the rivers, all of it is addressed in these psalms (Psalm 95-100) as being worshippers of God! You may ask how does a tree or a river worship God?

It is good that we know what it is, because when we know it then we can seek the power to change. But what is the power to real change? We have all experienced the loop of trying harder only to fail again, rinse, repeat.  Jesus is giving us the answer here.

One such phrase is, “The Will of God.” We talk about “Doing the will of God,” and we pray for “God’s will to be done.” But does it not seem that for many of us, those are statements made around church but perhaps not translating into practical living in our day to day lives?
