Meansville Baptist Church

We here examine the inexpressible gift of God in His Son wrapped in Human flesh, what C.S. Lewis calls "the grand miracle." This is what Christmas is all about.

As we examine the doctrine of the virgin conception of Jesus, we see that it has a primary and not a secondary role in who Jesus is and how our salvation works.

As we examine the role of the Holy Spirit in the nativity accounts of Jesus and John the Baptist, we see He is still doing the same work among His people today.

As we begin our Advent series, we consider the necessity of Christ being named where He has not been named.

As we pause in between two great book marks in the book of Ephesians we find our lives our to be lived as lives of thanksgiving.

Faith in a Sovereign God or Fear of a world at war? In this passage we find Abram's nephew caught up in the middle of warring kings. The final scene prepares us to consider a king who brings righteousness and peace.

What does it mean to live by faith and not by sight? As Abram and Lots' herdsmen feud we see the difference between selfishness and satisfaction in God in the faith of Abram and lack of faith on the part of Lot.

Unfortunately, our Sunday AM installment in Genesis did not record. This is our Sunday evening message with a doctrinal emphasis on Hell.

Just as God calls Abram out of darkness in to His light and promise, so He does with all who would follow in faith today.

What makes a beautiful pulpit? On Tuesday evening, October 21, Pastor John had the opportunity to preach on the topic of Scripture Alone at the fall meeting of the Centennial Baptist Association.

What we find as we come to Tower of Babel: Man’s quest to find meaning apart from God will always end in rubble and confusion. We cannot have the blessings of God without the rule and reign of God.

As we come to the final episode in the text regarding the life of Noah we see that Noah is only a man at best and why we should be looking forward to the coming of Christ as God keeps His promises.

As Noah and his sons embark off the ark in to life after the flood, God makes provisions and promises to His covenant people and gives the sign of the covenant in the rainbow.

As we see Noah and his family disembark off the ark after waiting for 150 days, we learn more about the character of God and how these scenes foreshadow the coming of Christ.

As we begin one of the most famous accounts in the Bible we find this event tells us what we need to know about God, His character, grace, judgment and salvation.

As we trace the family tree of life through Genesis chapter 5 we see the grace of God in the life available in the line of Seth verses death in the line of Cain.

As the congregation at Meansville celebrates 129 years as a body we look to the word of God and to our historic statements of faith to consider our calling and challenge for the future.

As we consider the descendants of Cain we see that even as society advances man morally moves backwards apart from God.

As we see the beginnings of a Genesis 3 world, we meet these two brothers and witness what the failure to worship God and heed His word entails.

In the midst of the announcing of consequences after the fall of man and woman, God sounds forth His grace in the midst of judgment by ultimately providing a Messiah and a way back home.
