We uploaded an old message from Dr. Monroe Parker, former director of Baptist World Mission when he preached for us February 24, 1991. The audio quality is not great, but we thought some might be interested in the message.
Ye Must be Born Again – Dr. Monroe Parker, Feb 24, 1991
Our Wednesday evening psalm last week is the only one by Moses in the Psalter. This psalm was paraphrased by Isaac Watts in the hymn from which we get the title for our lesson.
O God Our Help in Ages Past – Ps 90, Jan 13, 2010
Sunday Messages
Our message from Romans 5.9 challenges the hearer to view salvation from the wrath of God as not merely our ‘escape ticket’ from doom, but as a motivation to mortify the lusts of the flesh and put off the sins of the inner man.
Free from Wrath – Rom 5.9
We continue with our look at Tyndale’s introduction to Romans. In this lesson we look at Tyndale’s summary of the first six chapters of Romans.
Our message from 1 Timothy challenges the believer to guard his good conscience in order to maintain his faith, part of successful Christian strategy in fighting the good fight.
War a Good Warfare – 1 Tim 1.18-20

Earlier in the week, our Wednesday PM look at the Psalms, Jan 6, 2010
The Meaning of Forever (Ps 89.1-52)
Yet I was shown Mercy [1 Timothy]
November 29, 2009
1 Tim 1.12-17
Do you think confronting error in a local church is tough? What do you think it would have been like to confront someone like Saul of Tarsus? The apostle offers up his testimony as an encouragement to pastors and churches to engage in confronting error. He seems to say, ‘If God could change me, he could change anyone.’

Using the Law Lawfully [1 Timothy]
November 8, 2009
1 Tim 1.8-11
The suggestion that false teachers in Ephesus desired to be ‘law-teachers’ gives rise to a discussion of the proper use of the law. When the law is used properly, its inherent goodness is made plain to all. The lawful use, then, is to reprove, rebuke, and correct sin and sinners. And Paul goes further – this use of the Law is connected with the Gospel – it is according to the Gospel entrusted to him, and through him entrusted to us.

Keeping Constant against Error [1 Timothy]
October 25, 2009
1 Tim 1.1-7
In this message, we look at ground we have already covered in 1 Timothy. We emphasize a major theme of the book, calling pastors and leaders to a vigilant ministry against error and foolish teaching that might crop up in the church. The opening paragraphs are an echo of Paul’s farewell message to Ephesus, Ac 20.28-31. His urgency to Timothy is an urgency every member of the church needs to receive and share: put a stop to error and false teaching creeping into the church.

The Pastor’s Goal [1 Timothy]
October 11, 2009
1 Tim 1.5
Paul’s first instruction to the pastor is to command men not to teach false doctrine or foolish doctrine. If a pastor faithfully fulfills this instruction, he is often seen as negative, unloving, unpastoral. Yet it is this very command that has as its goal the production of mature Christian love out of the direct fruits of correcting error – a pure heart, a good conscience and unfeigned faith.

Charge Certain Men [1 Timothy]
September 20, 2009
1 Tim 1.3-4
Our second message in the Pastoral epistles looks at Paul’s first instructions to Timothy. In these instructions, Paul authorizes Timothy to command the teachers of the church concerning both ‘other-doctrine’ and ‘foolish doctrine’. These prohibited activities are at best distractions of the Christian faith and at worst distortions of the Christian faith. Their presence can utterly debilitate a local church.
