“as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him….by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”

We’d like to publicly announce that NPBC is thoroughly Biblically Conservative, and does NOT use or rely on any non-Biblical philosophy or theories to interpret the Bible or to guide our doctrine. We reject the modernist and “woke” bent of the current American Church. We also are absolutely committed to, “Whosoever will may come” as the basis of the Gospel message and call to lost men To be saved.
This is the latest Episode of the YouTube series that Joe Hawkins and Buster Wilson are producing and putting out on YT and FaceBook and here. Please watch and share!
So, let’s talk for just a minute about this issue of transgenderism
I know it’s a very controversial subject, but why should it be? The issue of gender is just a matter of science! There are two genders. There is male and female in the human species. This is decided by our chromosomes and by our DNA. This is science; this is not politics. This is not some social construct or social positioning. This is simply factual science.
The problem with the WHOLE transgenderism issue is that it is one more opportunity for mankind to rebel against God and His established order.
He created us male and female. The Bible says that God created man as male and female. Male and female created He them, is how it’s recorded in Genesis chapter 1. Just to say that there is more than male or female, or that male and female is not enough, is to launch a direct attack against God, and His established, created order. This is the same issue with homosexuality of which transgenderism is a sub-variant. Homosexuality is not the created order of God. God created male and female so that they could have families, have a home, have babies and replenish the population of the Earth. Homosexuality comes along and destroys that established order and takes away the possibility of replenishing mankind, because two men cannot have babies, regardless of what people insist on today.
In the same way, transgenderism attacks the biblical order of God’s established creation. There’s a part of me that believes that desire of the left and the world system, the “new” world order, to reduce the population of mankind drastically, plays a role in this as well\. This is something that they have stated publicly! The famous Georgia Guide stones which are no more because someone blew them up, once had as one of its major tenants that the population of the Earth should be no more than 500 million. The reduction of population is a major goal of the left, of the world system of the new world order. With fewer people on the Earth, resources are not used up as quickly, the elite have an easier time of ruling a smaller group of people. It is also an opportunity for the left and the elite in the new world order to establish strict dominance over the smaller population.
So to accomplish this, what do they do?
They push something called abortion! They push abortion all the way to birth! And they also push homosexuality, transgenderism and any opportunity to keep men and women from being able to procreate and carry on the human population! These people are part of what I would call a “death cult”. They are all about death! You can’t say anything other than that when you have over 4000 abortions every day in America alone.
It’s absolutely insane that people are pushing the transgender issue today as they are. Especially when discussing things like, “gender, affirming care“ to minors, and even without acquiring their parent’s consent!
For over 5000 years IF men and women would cross dress, do drag shows, make up and act like the gender that they were not assigned by God at birth, they would have been seen as having a sickness, a mental illness or disorder. In fact, all the way until 2012, the American Psychological Association referred to these lifestyles as a mental illness and disorder! But now, it is being pushed on us as that which we MUST accept, what we must embrace and approve!
When we look at the Word of God, God’s position on these issues is quite clear. Paul‘s teachings in Romans 1 are devastating to the LGBTQIA+++ movement! He says, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men…” (vs 18); Because they, “hold the TRUTH in unrighteousness”! (Vs. 18). The TRUTH, that which is undeniable (like God created only two genders….) is undeniable and when denied, it’s held in “unrighteousness”!
He goes on to say, “Profession toe be wise, they became fools,”! (Vs 22). I’m led to think about the man, a local city counsel member in a a northern state, that just ‘came out’ as a woman, a lesbian and a person of color. He is NEITHER a woman (and thus cannot be a lesbian), nor is he a person of color. He is a WHITE MAN. He was self congratulating online his “breaking the glass ceiling and women’s barriers”! Professing himself to be wise, he demonstrated just how much of a fool he actually is!
Paul says that they, because of their lusts and uncleanness of heart, dishonored their own bodies (Vs 24). They changed the TRUTH OF GOD into a LIE! And by doing so, showed themselves to be worshipping the creation (themselves) over God (vs 25)!
There are other places in God’s Word that clearly address the foolishness of today! Check out Leviticus 18; Romans 1; 1 Cor. 6; 1 Tim. 4 and 2 Tim. 3. Keep yourself in a systematic, regular study of God’s Holy Word and you will have discernment to recognize these foolish doctrines of demons that are punctuating our world today!
Well, I would prefer to stay with the science! I’d prefer to stay with the Bible, and I would prefer to stay with the fact that you were born either as a male or a female.
I’m sorry Google: there aren’t 72 different genders.
There are only two.
And that is a fact
Please pray for Alice Hodge who is recovering from leg surgery and will be in rehab for quite a while.
Buster and Cherry Renfrow are doing their best to live at home with assisted help. Please keep them both in your prayers.
Mary Percell, Kitty Silas, Robby Harris and Claudean White and Quay Daniels are all in nursing `homes in Water Valley and Oxford, respectively. Please pray for them and visit as often as allowed. Write letters too.. Plus we have a few who are pretty much shut in at home, like the Renfrow’s and Betty Robertson.
Nearly every one of us as families, have loved ones that need a closer walk with the Lord. Pray with us that God will draw each and every one of them to Himself and repentant revival will occur in our community!
Wilbourn and Dot are two of our greatest “fighters”! The ole devil has tried to set Wilbourn back many times but he continues to fight through his every other day of medical treatment! Dot has been a loving caregiver and wife. Please lift them both up to the Lord often!
Betty recently has been placed on Hospice at home. She is in great need of our prayers, and Ross as well.
Luke has battled unusual chemical imbalances his whole life. For the most part, he is fine and is one fantastic teenage boy. But occasionally he gets a little sick and we need to remember to lift him up for healing and continued strength!
There is so much flu and RSV going around. Our God is the great Physician. Let's pray that He will keep everyone in our Church community well.
On a recent Wednesday night in our Gospel Series, Brother B taught about EMPOWERING THE GOSPEL by being Filled with The Holy Spirit!
This phrase defines the purpose and function of NPBC.
(These are all the more important as we walk through this current world!)
Our first desire as a church is to CONNECT, first with Jesus and then with each other.
Then, we are to GROW in our knowledge of God and our relationships with each other.
Then finally, we are to SERVE each other, our Church, and to reach out and serve the world!
This phrase defines the FUNCTIONS that we do as a Church and WHY we do them:
We CONNECT with God in our worship services.
We GROW in knowledge and relationships in Sunday School.
We SERVE through Ministry Teams and Gospel Outreaches.
PICK A POINT IN THIS SIMPLE PHRASE TO SEE WHERE YOU ARE IN YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY.
