The Biblical marriage covenant is to be between the man, the woman, and God alone -- and therefore the State has NO RIGHT to intervene, to insert itself into, or to LICENSE that sacred Covenant. The right to marry and raise a family is the most basic, fundamental and inviolable of human rights, and therefore CANNOT be licensed by the state.

This sermon was preached by Pastor Sam Adams on 8/10/14 at Independence Baptist Church.
Bible text: John 10:1-33; Job 23:12
The Lord Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice." When was the last time you heard from God? If you are not hearing from God - if He is not leading you, then either (1) you are not listening, (2) God stopped speaking because of stubborn disobedience, or (3) you are not one of His sheep.
God speaks to us in many ways - primarily of course through His written word; but He also speaks to us through circumstance; through answered prayer, through open doors, or through "many adversaries."
Many times the Lord speaks to us through others - through our spouse or through others in the church, especially through the collective body assembled together.
But also, the Lord still speaks to us through that "still small voice" - giving us His peace about a matter, or a moment of conviction, or an impartation of truth we had not seen before.
This message first presents how God speaks, but then explains why some of us may not be hearing from God as we should. Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice." Are you listening?

Part 2 of a 2 of a two-part exposition of Peter's obsevation in 1 Peter ch. 3 that Noah's Ark was a type or figure of the salvation that we have in Christ Jesus. Having explained in Part 1 what Peter meant by the Spirit's preaching "unto the spirits in prison...", here in Part 2 we first explain why the "sons of God" in Genesis ch. 6 COULD NOT have been, as some believe, fallen angelic beings that allegedly mated with human women; and then we go on to show the many ways that Noah's Ark serves as a figure of the great salvation we have in Christ.
This sermon was preached by Pastor Sam Adams on 3-15-2020 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: 1 Peter 3:18-22, Genesis 6:1-7:16.

This sermon was preached on 12/28/13 by Pastor Sam Adams at Independence Baptist Church in Belleview, Florida. This is the third of six sermons in the series "Heresies of C.I. Scofield."
Bible text: Matthew 12:5; John 1:17
Since 1909 the Scofield Reference Bible has enjoyed great popularity - despite the fact that Scofield's notes contain many blatant, serious, and even "damnable" heresies, including 4 separate gospels in the N.T. era and dismissal of Christ's teachings as being irrelevant to the Church. This series of messages refutes Scofield's heresies from a balanced premillennial perspective, aiming to correct the hyper-dispensational brand of premillennialism that Scofield popularized, along with his false views of the Kingdom, of Christ's message and ministry, and of the Gospel itself.
In this important Part 3 message we refute Scofield’s most damnable and despicable of heresies; that the “Gospel of the Kingdom” preached by the Lord Jesus is not the same gospel that Paul preached or that we are to preach; that there are in fact 4 separate gospels that must be distinguished in the NT era; and further that Christ’s earthly teachings were for Israel alone and have no relevance to the Church. First however, we refute the heresy that Scofield taught to lead into the others; that there are 2 separate kingdoms in view in the Bible; (1) the Kingdom of Heaven, allegedly the earthly kingdom promised to National Israel, offered to Israel at Christ’s first advent, but rejected; and (2) the Kingdom of God, being the heavenly kingdom occupied by the Church. We show conclusively that these 2 are clearly one and the same; that Christ's kingdom is NOT divided; there is only ONE King, with ONE Kingdom.

One of the biggest problems today among Christians is the rampant "lone-ranger Christianity" caused by the inability of good Christians to find a good church worth attending that is not steeped in apostasy and idolatry. As a summary of the prior series of messages exposing the heresy of the non-existent "universal invisible church," this message provides thorough exposition of Christ's words in Matthew 16,"upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
This sermon was preached by Pastor Sam Adams on 10-6-2022 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: Matthew 16:13-18; Hebrews 10:14-25.
