Have you ever had one of those wonderful days when everything just seemed right? You're sitting in church with your family, everyone is happy, your heart is full of the Lord, and you wish that moment could last forever. As wonderful as those moments are, they're only a foretaste of the glory that awaits us! Think about that. The very best moment you've ever experienced in this world cannot begin to compare with what God has prepared for His people. And unlike the joys of this life, the joy of heaven will never come to an end. We simply cannot comprehend how wonderful eternity with Christ will be!

The Best Day of Your Life Is Just a Foretaste of Heaven!
Some people dream of escaping this world by traveling to another planet. But I've got a much better hope than going to Mars! Through Jesus Christ, we have the promise of deliverance from this present evil world, not merely from its troubles, but from everything that has been affected by Adam's transgression. Think about that! Our hope isn't simply to relocate somewhere else in this fallen creation. It's to be delivered from the corruption of this present age altogether, even from time itself, into the eternal glory God has prepared for His people. What a glorious hope we have in Christ!

A Better Hope Than Going to Mars! Rescued From Time Into Eternity.
We often hear people ask, "Have you found Christ?" But I believe there's a much bigger question: Has Christ found me? Think about the shepherd and his lost sheep. The sheep doesn't go looking for the shepherd. The shepherd goes looking for the sheep! Before Christ found us, we weren't seeking Him. We were lost in our own carnality. But thank God, our salvation doesn't depend on a lost sheep finding its way home. Christ is the Good Shepherd, and He finds His sheep! And ultimately, no one can hide from Him. Every person will be found by Christ, whether in grace or in judgment.

Have You Found Christ, or Has Christ Found You?
What does it mean to be born again? Is the new birth something we accomplish through faith or religious works, or is it a sovereign work of God in the soul? Continuing our series Unpacking Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett considers the gracious work of the Holy Spirit in bringing sinners from death in sin to life in Christ. From Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus in John 3 to Paul's teachings in Ephesians 2, Scripture presents the new birth as a work of divine power, accomplished by the Spirit of God, rather than the will or efforts of man. But God's grace doesn't merely give us spiritual life. It changes us! Those who have been born of the Spirit are new creatures in Christ, created unto good works and equipped with spiritual fruit that we are called to cultivate in our daily lives. Join us at Flint River Primitive Baptist Church as we consider the miracle of regeneration, the sovereignty of the Holy Spirit, and the beautiful transformation that follows when God makes us alive in Christ. Scripture references: Romans 8:29-30, John 3:1-8, Ephesians 1-2, Titus 2:11-13, Titus 3:3-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 5:16-25. #UnpackingGrace #GraceInTheNewBirth #BornAgain #Regeneration #SovereignGrace #HolySpirit #SalvationByGrace #PrimitiveBaptist #FlintRiverPrimitiveBaptist #BenWinslett #ChristianSermon #BibleTeaching
Grace in The New Birth | Unpacking Grace, Part 3
Think about this. We consider gold to be one of the most valuable things in the world. But in Revelation, the streets of the heavenly city are described as pure gold! Nobody goes out to the parking lot and collects chunks of asphalt because they're valuable. Nobody fills a bucket with dirt from an old Alabama dirt road and treasures it. Yet what we value so highly here is pictured as pavement in glory! I believe that's a beautiful symbolic reminder that heaven is so much greater than anything this world has to offer. The most precious things we know here cannot begin to compare with the glory that awaits us.

What happens when a church becomes so focused on defending the truth that it begins to lose sight of Christ Himself? This was the danger facing the church at Ephesus, the first of the Seven Churches of Asia Minor addressed by Jesus in Revelation chapters 2 and 3. Though Christ commended this congregation for its faithfulness, steadfastness, and commitment to sound doctrine, He also had a serious warning for them. In this edition of Words of Grace, we begin our examination of this remarkable congregation, considering its history, its leadership, and a sobering warning the Apostle Paul gave its elders in Acts chapter 20. As we explore the background of this church, we discover some important lessons about the necessity of defending the faith without losing sight of the One in whom our faith rests.

The Church at Ephesus, Part 1
Have you ever been with someone nearing the end of life who began speaking to people you couldn't see, or even spoke of seeing Jesus? Some dismiss these experiences as hallucinations or the effects of a dying brain. But I believe there may be something far more wonderful taking place. In Acts 7, as Stephen was being stoned to death, he saw heaven opened and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Could it be that some of God's children, as they approach death, are given a glimpse of the glory awaiting them? Could they be seeing the angels who will escort them home, or even Christ Himself? What a comforting thought for the children of God as we face our final moments in this present evil world! From the sermon "This Present Evil World," preached at Flint River Primitive Baptist Church.

Do Dying Christians Sometimes See Heaven Open?
Have you ever wondered why people who openly dishonor God sometimes seem to enjoy wealth, power, and an easy life, while God's children face hardship and affliction? One reason is that we belong to Christ! Just as loving parents set boundaries for their own children, our Heavenly Father sometimes tells us no. He chastens us because we are His children, and He deals with us as a loving Father. And we must also remember that we have an adversary. Satan is not a friend to God's people. He seeks to afflict those who belong to Christ. From the sermon "This Present Evil World," preached at Flint River Primitive Baptist Church.

Why Do the Wicked Prosper While God's Children Suffer?
When calamities strike and innocent children lose their lives, we naturally wonder, "Where is Jesus in all of this?" The comforting truth is that Jesus Christ is not absent in tragedy. He is delivering His children from the consequences of Adam's transgression and bringing them into His glorious presence. Though we grieve their loss here, those precious little ones are now in the presence of their Savior, before the throne of God. And we would not bring them back from where they are, even if we could!

Where Is Jesus When Tragedy Strikes?
Did you know the Bible describes God's grace toward His people before the world even began? In this second message of our Unpacking Grace series, Pastor Ben Winslett explores the biblical doctrine of election, examining God's sovereign choice of His people in Christ before the foundation of the world. Beginning with Romans 8:29-30 and Ephesians 1, we consider what Scripture teaches about foreknowledge, predestination, and God's eternal purpose in salvation. Far from being based on foreseen human merit or works, election is an expression of God's free and sovereign grace. We also explore how the gospel brings life and immortality to light, how believers find assurance through faith in Christ, and why the doctrine of election should encourage rather than discourage evangelism. Join us as we unpack this wonderful truth: Our salvation rests not upon our own will or accomplishments, but upon the mercy and grace of God! Scripture references: Romans 8:29-30; Romans 9; Ephesians 1:1-14; 2 Timothy 1:9-10; Titus 1; John 6, 10, 17; 1 Thessalonians 1:4-5; Acts 2; Acts 13:48. #GraceInElection #UnpackingGrace #SovereignGrace #Election #Predestination #SalvationByGrace #PrimitiveBaptist #BiblePreaching #Romans8 #Ephesians1
Grace in Election | Unpacking Grace, Part 2
Did you know that God repeatedly condemned Israel for mistreating the poor? Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, and Malachi all spoke against those who neglected widows and the fatherless, denied justice to the needy, withheld wages, and exploited the helpless. Amos even condemned people for selling the poor for something as insignificant as a pair of shoes! God's concern for the poor was never an afterthought. He commanded His people to care for them, and when they refused, He sent His prophets to condemn their wickedness. God takes the mistreatment of the helpless very seriously!

God Condemns the Exploitation of the Poor!
As we conclude our introductory message to the Seven Churches of Asia, our attention turns to the ultimate authority behind the letters of Revelation 2 and 3: The Lord Jesus Christ Himself. In this episode, we consider John’s descriptions of Jesus as the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, the prince of the kings of the earth, and the Almighty. We also examine John’s remarkable vision of the glorified Christ, who walks among the candlesticks and holds the seven stars in His hand. These truths remind us that Jesus Christ is the sovereign head of His church, and His words to the seven churches are just as worthy of our attention today. http://flintriverpbc.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/episode-0980-–-10-11-26-a-statement-on-authority-part2.mp3 A Statement on Authority (Part 2) (http://flintriverpbc.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/episode-0980-–-10-11-26-a-statement-on-authority-part2.mp3)
A Statement on Authority (Part 2)
When God gave Israel His law, caring for the poor wasn't merely a suggestion. It was the law of the land! Among the provisions God established was a tithe collected every third year for the support of the poor, including widows, the fatherless, and strangers. This was not optional charity. It was a legal obligation under the law of Moses. Sometimes we hear people say the Bible never teaches compulsory giving. Well, the Old Testament certainly did! God made provisions for the poor that were non-negotiable, demonstrating just how seriously He regarded their care.

Did You Know God Required Giving to the Poor?
Sometimes a Bible lesson becomes far more personal than we ever expected. While teaching an after-school devotion about God's care for the fatherless and widows, I suddenly realized that many of the children sitting in front of me were fatherless themselves. What began as a lesson about God's provisions for the needy became an opportunity to remind those precious children that even when an earthly father is absent, there is a God in heaven who loves them, cares for them, and has commanded that they not be forgotten.

No Interest Among Israelites? Under the law of Moses, God placed remarkable protections around the poor. Israelites were forbidden from charging interest to their poor brethren, and the Jubilee proclaimed liberty and release. These laws prevented permanent cycles of debt and servitude from swallowing up the needy. Whatever your perspective on our modern financial system, the economic structure God gave Israel was radically different from the world we know today.
