Part 1 of two-part message explaining the TRUE Biblical gift of tongues as bestowed at Pentecost, while exposing the excesses, heresies, and outright IDOLATRY of modern-day Pentecostalism.
This sermon was preached by Pastor Sam Adams on 8-27-2023 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: Acts 2:1-12; 1 Corinthians 14:1-40
This sermon was preached on 4/17/11 by Pastor Sam Adams at Independence Baptist Church in Belleview, Florida. This is the fifth of seven sermons in the series "The Church that Jesus Built."
Bible text: Matthew 16:18
This highly important message, as an introduction to Part 2 of the same title, sums up in only 15 minutes the previous messages in the series covering the critical doctrine of the Perpetuity of Christ's true church - from its founding by the Lord Jesus during His earthly ministry, through 3 centuries of bloody persecution by the Caesars, through the long dark ages when the false Roman Catholic church ruled Europe and continued that same bloody persecution, through the so-called Protestant Reformation when the Protestants became the persecutors, and on to the present day, when most who claim to be Baptist have shamefully abandoned the historic doctrines that once defined the true church, and are now no more worthy of calling themselves Baptist than are the Presbyterians, the Lutherans or the Methodists, NONE of whom can claim doctrinally or historically to be the true church Jesus built. Please listen to the message.

Israel neglected the Lord's house in Haggai's day - just as far too many Christians neglect His house today, which is His local, visible CHURCH -- not a building, but the Assembly: "...that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth." (1 Tim. 3:15)
This lesson was taught by Bro. Jade Lazaruis on 12-11-2022 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: 1 Timothy 3:15; Haggai.

In this Sunday School lesson, we look at the subject of the value of the peace of God mentioned in Phil. 4:7. We see the value of the peace of God that passes all understanding, as well as the value of the testimony that it gives the Christian. Then, we see the value of the safety found in the peace of God, because in the worst of circumstances, the peace of God keeps the Christian from anxiety, from fear, and from sin, as well as from insanity, confusion, and deception.
This lesson was taught by Bro. Jade Lazaruis on 4-28-2024 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: Phil. 4:7.

In this study of Phil. 2:15, we see that the Apostle Paul addresses the importance of the Christian's testimony. We see that the Christian must have a testimony that is harmless, that is blameless, that shows that he is a son of God, and that is without rebuke.
This lesson was taught by Bro. Jade Lazaruis on 9-10-2023 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: Phil. 2:15.

...in EARTH...as it is in heaven.
An exposition of Christ's kingdom, existing in this present age as a spiritual kingdom where Christ reigns spiritually in the hearts of his believers, while being greatly opposed and in fact at war with Satan's kingdom. One day soon however, Christ's kingdom will be transformed by His glorious return to put down all opposition, transform creation and reign personally and bodily as King over all the earth! God has not and will not surrender this planet to the devil.

This sermon was preached on 12/07/13 by Pastor Sam Adams at Independence Baptist Church in Belleview, Florida. This is the second of six sermons in the series "Heresies of C.I. Scofield."
Bible text: John 10:14-16; Ephesians 2:11-19
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 doctrines from a balanced historic (a.k.a. "classical") premillennial perspective, aiming to correct the hyper-dispensational brand of premillennialism that Scofield popularized, along with his false views of the Kingdom, of the Church and Israel, of Christ's message and ministry, and of the very Gospel itself.
Part 2 in the series disputes Scofield's heresy that there are 2 separate chosen peoples of God - Israel and the Church - which appears to form the basis and agenda behind Scofield's entire dispensational system, and behind his most damnable heresy - that there must be multiple gospels to accommodate unbelieving Jews, for them to retain status as "God's chosen people," to provide for them an earthly kingdom, and to promote the agenda of those whom the Lord Jesus referred to in Rev 2:9 and 3:9 as “them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.”
The New Testament is clear: there is only ONE chosen people of God who all share ONE destiny - there is to be ONE fold with ONE shepherd (John 10); there is ONE Olive tree with ONE root (Rom. 11); Christ has made of twain ONE new man in joining Gentiles with "the commonwealth of Israel" (Eph. 2-3). As such, no unbelieving Jew can call himself one of God's chosen people.
