Melvin Baptist Church

This is the time of year when I’m inspired to set goals for the “New Year”. Well your sermon has inspired me to focus only on knowing God and to let go of my other greedy aspirations. I’ll make a point to listen to them all. God Bless!!

Thankful for your sermons here. Keep up the good work proclaiming the word of God!

Excellent Sermon! Eagerly awaiting newer sermons as well!

Like how you use visual examples of your message for your congregation. (Yes, I know I can't "see" them in this audio, but I can visualize as well). Your congregation and listeners are much more likely to remember your message with these types of teachings. They will likely remember that God needs faithful men to stand in the gap between what His word says to do and what the world says is "alright". To stand or kneel before God and pray for this country (which is in very rapid decline and faithful women can do this as well). Also it isn't the productivity of the person God is looking at... it's the faithfulness with which we serve the Lord. I believe God is finding fewer and fewer faithful men in this time when He needs them most. Great sermon!

Excellent addendum sermon, would have been wonderful even as a "stand-alone" sermon! Compelling reasons why we should all be studying God's word daily. This is a "must-hear" sermon!

R. Lane, thank you for the information concerning the problem with the volume for some of the sermons. Indeed, I was not previously aware of the problem. I am now working on a fix for the problem.

I debated on whether to say anything... I hope you don't consider this as criticism, (but you may not be aware). Many of your sermons I cannot hear... it's a volume issue. I can set my setting to maximum volume and yet still strain to hear parts (or sometimes even most) of the sermons. I listen to a lot of sermons here, and so I don't think the sound volume problem is on my end. However, the ones I can hear, I've been blessed and thankful to hear! Thank you for uploading your sermons here!

Excellent Sermon! Are your friends like Shadrach. Meshach, and Abednego? I'm afraid my "friends" would be more like the tattle-tale Chaldeans. But no matter if your friends would or wouldn't stand with you on your day of persecution, we need to purpose in our hearts to stand for the Lord and the Word of God. This pastor brought out that peer pressure applies to adults too. Worldly pressure is getting ever-more prevalent. We need to be in the bible every day drawing closer to the Lord.

Amen! Good message! We need to determine (beforehand) ... WILL we stand for the Lord our God? Or will we bend to the world when faced with persecution? Even when all our "friends" abandon us? Sadly, in this once-great country, I think we will soon find out the answer on an individual basis.

Thankful there are still churches (such as yours) who have not been seduced by false doctrine and are upholding the word of God!

Can't find the volume button to turn up the sound!
