Christ our Sacrifice

In this episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett explores the biblical theme of sacrifice from Genesis to the New Testament. Why did God require sacrifices under the law? What was the difference between Cain and Abel’s offerings? How did the sacrifices of bulls, goats, and lambs point forward to Jesus Christ? Join us as we consider Christ, our perfect and final sacrifice, and the sacrifices believers are called to offer today in worship, praise, and service to God. Continue reading “Christ our Sacrifice”

Finding Rest in Christ

In today’s Words of Grace, Ben Winslett turns to Matthew 11 and Christ’s gracious invitation to the weary: “Come unto me… and I will give you rest.” This episode explores the burden of legalism, guilt, and striving—and the true rest found in Jesus’ finished work.

Raised According to the Will of God

In today’s broadcast, we turn to John chapter 6 and consider one of the most comforting truths in all of Scripture: that the resurrection of God’s people is rooted firmly in the will of God Himself. Jesus declares that all whom the Father has given Him will be raised up again at the last day, and that He will lose nothing. What does it mean for your eternal future to rest not in your strength, but in God’s sovereign purpose?

From John 6 to Romans 8 and Ephesians 1, we trace the unbreakable chain of salvation. The elect was foreknown, predestinated, called, justified, and will ultimately be glorified. This message reminds us that the same God who purposed salvation before the foundation of the world will surely complete it in the resurrection, raising His people incorruptible according to His will.

The Suffering Servant Rises

In the conclusion of this special Easter-season message, Ben Winslett returns to Isaiah 53 to consider the very heart of the gospel. Why did Christ suffer? Why was the Servant wounded, bruised, and cut off out of the land of the living?

This message explores the substitutionary sufferings of Jesus Christ, the mystery of the cross, and the triumphant hope of the resurrection foretold in prophecy. Isaiah not only tells us that Christ would die for sinners, he also shows us that the Servant would prolong His days, see the travail of His soul, and be satisfied.

To Whom Is The Arm Of The Lord Revealed?

In this special Easter-season broadcast, Ben Winslett begins a two-part message from Isaiah 53 and Acts 8, focusing on the Ethiopian eunuch’s timeless question: “Of whom speaketh the prophet this?” Who is Isaiah describing in this remarkable prophecy?

In this first part, we consider how Christ is revealed in the Old Testament as the Arm of the Lord—God’s saving power made known in the promised Messiah. This message explores the opening verses of Isaiah 53, the unbelief of man, and the glory of Christ foretold centuries before His coming.

This episode is the first half of last year’s Easter message and sets the stage for next week’s conclusion on the sufferings, atonement, and resurrection victory of Jesus Christ!

Why Are His Garments Red?

In Isaiah 63 the prophet asks a sobering question about the victorious figure introduced in the opening verse: “Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?” In this episode of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett continues this message by focusing on the work of the One who is mighty to save.

The imagery of the winepress presents a vivid picture of judgment, as well as the reality that Christ accomplished redemption by His own power. This passage declares that He trod the winepress alone, with none to help, securing salvation for His people while also bringing judgment upon His enemies.

Mighty To Save

In Isaiah 63 the prophet asks a striking question. “Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah… this that is glorious in his apparel, traveling in the greatness of his strength?” The answer comes with authority: “I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” In this episode of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett begins a study of this powerful passage and introduces the identity of the conquering figure Isaiah saw.

This message focuses on the opening verse of the passage and the declaration that the Messiah is mighty to save. While Isaiah 53 shows Christ as the suffering servant who bore the sins of his people, Isaiah 63 reveals him as the victorious Redeemer who comes in strength to deliver his people and judge their enemies.

Who Exactly is Shiloh?

In this Christmas-season episode of Words of Grace, we consider one of the earliest and most beautiful promises of Christ found in the Old Testament. From Jacob’s prophetic words in Genesis 49, we’re introduced to the mysterious name Shiloh—the One to whom the gathering of the people would be, long understood as a promise of the coming Messiah.

We then follow that promise into the book of Isaiah, where the child to be born is revealed as Emmanuel, God with us—the Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, and the Prince of Peace. The episode concludes in Psalm 8, reflecting on the wonder of the incarnation: that the eternal Son of God humbled Himself, becoming a little lower than the angels, taking on our humanity to redeem His people.

As you listen, may your heart be drawn not only to the warmth of the Christmas season, but to the ancient promises that find their fulfillment in Jesus Christ our Lord.

It’s All About Christ!

Everything about the Christian faith centers on one glorious truth — it’s all about Christ. From creation to redemption, from our new birth to our eternal home, all things are of Him, through Him, and to Him.

In this edition of Words of Grace, we feature a recent sermon from the pulpit of Flint River Primitive Baptist Church, reminding us that our greatest identity isn’t found in any earthly title or role, but in belonging to Jesus. Every blessing of salvation — being chosen, redeemed, and made new — is found in Christ.

Join us as we lift our eyes to the One for whom all things exist and in whom every believer finds purpose and peace.

Two Special Saints

In Luke’s Gospel, we read of two remarkable older saints, Simeon and Anna, who were blessed to behold the Lord Jesus when He was brought into the temple. Their lives of faith remind us that God honors those who wait upon Him, and that true consolation and redemption are found in Christ alone.

In this broadcast, Pastor Benjamin Winslett shares the story of these two faithful servants and reflects on the lessons they teach us about devotion, hope, and the joy of salvation.
