The Truth About Living Sacrifices

May 07, 2023 16:00 - 34 minutes - 23.7 MB

I think when it comes to living this life God has given us, it comes down to one of two ways. The first, to see your life as YOUR LIFE, to do what you want to do, and that you see God, God loves you, sent Jesus to die for you, saved you, you have Heaven waiting, but you do what YOU want to do and hope God is okay with it, go to Heaven one day.

The Truth About God's Plan

April 30, 2023 16:00 - 34 minutes - 23.4 MB

Today as you can see by the title, we are going to discuss the truth about God’s plan. But as we begin, I want to state something very clearly… and that is that we cannot understand everything about God’s plan. Now the good news about this is...

The Truth About Israel and Salvation

April 16, 2023 16:00 - 35 minutes - 24.1 MB

Last week as we celebrated Easter, I shared with you that one belief can change everything about your life. Looking back, I might should have added…one belief can change everything about your life… but make sure it is the RIGHT belief.

The Truth About Salvation

April 10, 2023 03:00 - 26 minutes - 18.5 MB

Isn’t it amazing how JUST ONE BELIEF can change everything about your life? But it doesn’t have to be a new invention or a new discovery in space or technology… It can be something you believe about how the world is and what’s coming. Even if your circumstances don’t change, the most important change is in YOU and how YOU live and see the world

The Truth About the Spirit

April 02, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 44.4 MB

Instead of trying to find life only through the law, or by only living for the flesh, we instead are to live by the Spirit, walking closely with our “Abba” Father, who enables us to endure our present sufferings, but also reminds us that we one day will be freed from these sufferings.

The Truth About the Law

March 26, 2023 16:00 - 33 minutes - 23.1 MB

Even after being freed from the law, we still will struggle with living in the flesh.  We know we should do better.  And we know that we shouldn’t do things we keep on doing.  The law is not our master, but the law can be our teacher to continue to lead us to Christ. 

The Truth About Grace - Part Six

March 19, 2023 16:00 - 33 minutes - 22.7 MB

Before Christ, we were essentially slaves to ourselves, living only to satisfy our cravings.  But now we are under grace, not the law, so we should no longer let sin be our master (v. 14).  Grace is a gift from God. 

The Truth - The Truth About Atonement

March 12, 2023 16:00 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MB

Where did our sin come from?  Through one man, Adam, in the beginning.  Where does our salvation come from?  One man, Jesus, who gave His life for all of humanity.  He purchased us with His innocent blood and paid the price required for our sin, even before we knew Him. 

The Truth: A Study In Romans The Truth About Justification

March 05, 2023 17:00 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MB

The life and faith of Abraham gives us a good example of how we can be “justified”.  This word means being declared right with God.  Abraham believed God and God credited him with righteousness. 

The Truth About Sin

February 26, 2023 17:00 - 30 minutes - 21.1 MB

A hard truth for some to accept:  NO ONE is righteous enough to be saved on their own.  Sin means we all fall short of God’s standard.  No one can save themselves, but everyone can be saved by faith in Jesus. 

The Truth

February 12, 2023 17:00 - 40 minutes - 27.7 MB

The good news is that God loves us and that everyone can be saved, both Jews and Gentiles. But the bad news is that we cannot save ourselves. When we share the gospel, we must also share the truth, that we are sinners and without God, we will be destroyed by our depravity.

Strong and Courageous - A Study in Joshua - Choose Whom You Will Serve - Part Five

February 05, 2023 17:00 - 27 minutes - 18.6 MB

God does not force us to choose Him.  But He does clearly lay out for us the difference between following Him and not following Him.  It takes strength and courage to turn away from the gods of this world to follow our one true God. 

Strong and Courageous - Move Past Your Failure

January 30, 2023 04:00 - 36 minutes - 25.3 MB

Sometimes we like to make things sound better than the really are.  This may be no big deal with things like our job title.  But when it comes to our sin, it is a big deal.  God is ready to move us beyond our failures… but He wants us to face them and admit our guilt and for us to repent and to turn away from the things we covet so much. 

Strong and Courageous - Stick With The Plan

January 22, 2023 17:00 - 36 minutes - 25.4 MB

Love the story of the Battle of Jericho… but I think most of you know how it goes… Get to Jericho, walled city, march around it once day for 6 days, seventh day walked around it 7 times, then blew the trumpets, everyone shouted and...

Strong and Courageous - Accept Your Role

January 08, 2023 17:00 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MB

Did you ever dream of being a superhero as a child? Superman, being able to fly? Hulk, being super strong? Batman, think his superpower was being super rich. I liked Spiderman as a child, climbing walls, swinging from webs…But is this what God expects us to be?

New Year's Day Message by Larry Epps

An Unlikely Time

December 18, 2022 17:00 - 36 minutes - 25.2 MB

Merry Christmas! Are you ready for Christmas? Doesn’t matter, it’s coming next Sunday! A lot of things in like happen, even if we feel we aren’t ready for them. Because God doesn’t ask us if we’re ready, if we would like things done a certain way or not… do you know why?

Joy Full - Being Intentional

November 20, 2022 17:00 - 36 minutes - 25.3 MB

How many of you here think I’m competitive? Now see, did you notice how fast some of the hands went up? People who’ve known me for a while know that I can be pretty competitive. In fact, probably the longer you’ve known me, the faster your hand would go up. I love competition, I love games, I love...

Being Christlike - Joy Full

November 13, 2022 17:00 - 34 minutes - 23.7 MB

For the follower of Jesus, a “full” life is not about being full of worldly stuff and pleasures. The “full” part comes from walking with Jesus and trying to be more like Him in all our ways. Impossible? Sure, but..

Five Fabulous Sundays - Heaven - Part 5

October 30, 2022 16:00 - 33 minutes - 22.7 MB

Throughout this series, we’ve been using symbols and word pictures to get a better understanding of what love is like with God, what friendship is like according to God, purpose/mission, even death… Well, perhaps the most powerful word picture God gives to us is at the end of the Bible in Revelation. God “reveals” to John what Heaven is going to be like...

Five Fabulous Sundays - Death - Part 4

October 23, 2022 16:00 - 30 minutes - 21.2 MB

If you’ve seen your outline, you may have noticed that today’s topic is death. Not always fun but relates to us all because it’s going to happen to us all. And my hope for us today is to see how in the scriptures, we are supposed to have, and to live, with a different perspective on death than the rest of the world.

Five Fabulous Sundays - Purpose - Part 3

October 16, 2022 16:00 - 39 minutes - 27.1 MB

We’re in the middle of series called Five Fabulous Sundays, celebrating together and going deeper together on what I think makes being the church “fabulous”. First week, defined “fabulous”, comes from a French word for “fable”, means fairy tale or fantasy… Is being a church full of fantasy talk, we talk about love and friendship (last two Sundays), but is that really possible?

Five Fabulous Sundays - Part 2

October 09, 2022 16:00 - 38 minutes - 26.3 MB

Today, were going to read a section of scripture that is one of my favorites (all preachers, all scripture, all favorites), but the reason for this is because we have such detail about a specific moment. Other sections can be one scripture that can cover a whole week (from there they went to this town, later to another town). But as we read this passage in John 15, its actually just one part of...

Five Fabulous Sundays - Part 1

October 02, 2022 16:00 - 39 minutes - 26.8 MB

Mauldin First Baptist is a loving multigenerational family where the love of God leads us to share Jesus, serve others and make new disciples. Only one word repeated in that statement... love (loving and love). Love is the most important thing about being Christ followers.

It’s not unusual for people to ask me for scriptures related to a certain question or topic. And I'm always happy to oblige. Anything I can do to get people searching God’s word is a good thing.
