Three reasons support Paul’s warning to pastors about how to build the church: the value of the church, the fact that God has prescribed how we are to build the church, and that ministerial labor will be either rewarded or judged according to the degree of their obedience to God’s rules for building His church.

Stan, Let me begin by saying that I am happy to hear that you have not "lost your faith" as you put it. It sounds like you have struggled with sin in a very profound way and have come to know by your experience what the "total depravity" is which you… continue reading »

This is a most encouraging sermon for those in churches who strive to build the church as God commanded, even when in the midst of pressure from other churches and from its own members to conform to the evangelical seeker-sensitive megachurch down the street, filled with its programs, social outings, and whatever form of papistry it conceives.
Your congregation, as small as it may be in the world’s eye, is eternally grateful for and infinitely blessed through your ministry. Your devotion to remain faithful to the Word alone is indeed a manifestation of the Spirit’s gracious work.
Thank you dearly for your efforts Pastor Sawtelle.
