A Word From Our Elders

Greetings to all my OG family! Summer is in full swing as we enter the month of July, and I want to remind you one last time of the LRBA children’s and youth camp coming up the 21st-25th of this month. If you have a student or know of a student that has completed between 3rd and 12th grade and is interested in going to camp, it is not too late to sign up! Even if you do not have a student going, please commit to praying for the students and adults going this year. Pray for the clear presentation of the gospel, for eyes to be opened and hearts to be changed, for students to learn and grow in faith, and for the adults to model godliness and commitment to biblical truth.
On the 4th of this month, we also celebrate the birth of our nation, and that is a right and good thing to do. We have been given unprecedented freedom to worship God and for the true church to grow and to minister, and for that we should be thankful. It is important to remember, even as we celebrate the good ole USA, that our ultimate hope and allegiance is not to any earthly nation or power, but to Christ and his kingdom.
Our Bible reading plan for the month of July has us, fittingly, in the Old Testament books of 1-2 Kings and 2 Chronicles, which detail the history, division, and ultimate fall of the monarchies of Israel and Judah respectively. I say fittingly, for even as we today celebrate the history of our nation, it is important to remember that nations exist at the good pleasure of God. Furthermore, in the examples of Israel and Judah we see the dangers of embracing or being shaped by paganism and secularism in society. When the people of Israel compromised the worship of the true God and began to worship the idols of the nations around them, they were eventually judged through invasion and exile. Despite the growing wickedness of the nation of Israel, there were always a remnant who were faithful to God through it all. These were men such as Isaiah and Jeremiah and Elijah and Elisha, just to name a few.

In our own day, we too see and have seen throughout our nation’s history a growing disdain for the clear morality of God’s word, and a growing desire to lay aside God’s standard of righteousness and his definition of his creation, even of basic biology, in favor of what sinful humanity wants and desires to be true. As we see the growth of secularism, the growing trend of the watering down of doctrine and the gospel in so many churches, and the various attempts to redefine biblical teaching to accommodate sinful society, it is important for us to remember that believers are to stand firm on God’s word. Jude 17-21 tells us:

But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. They said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.

So, brothers and sisters, be encouraged this month and beyond to celebrate our national freedom, while remembering that our ultimate freedom is in Christ alone. Let us always strive to hold fast to the gospel, to be salt and light to a lost and dying world, and may our ultimate goal in all we do be to bring honor and glory to Christ our king.
May the Lord richly bless you in the grace and mercy of Jesus the Christ and grant you opportunity and courage to contend for the gospel.
Love in Christ,
Bro. Adam

Statement of Faith

What We Teach​

From the time of the Apostles to today, Christians have laid out doctrine (beliefs) in brief, definitive statements. As those who know God, we believe it necessary to set forth in a concise fashion the cornerstone truths that our church teaches as guided by Scripture. Our Doctrinal Statement summarizes essential Christian beliefs, shows unity in Christ, and affirms our belief in the Christian truths which have been held by the church throughout the ages and particularly since the Protestant reformation, including believer’s baptism, and congregational polity (government).

The Freeness of Salvation

We teach that the blessings of salvation are freely offered to all by the gospel, that it is the immediate duty of all to accept the gospel with a glad, obedient faith and Godly sorrow, and that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth other than his own inherent depravity (sinfulness) by which he refuses to listen and suppresses the truth in unrighteousness thereby rejecting the gospel which makes him wholly responsible for his just condemnation.

Grace in Regeneration

We teach that in order to be saved, sinners must be regenerated, or born again. This results in the mind being spiritually and savingly enlightened to understand the Word of God which is accomplished in a manner above our comprehension by the power of the Holy Spirit and the divine truth of the Word of God. This is done in a way that brings about voluntary obedience and faith which is evidenced by fruits worthy of repentance as demonstrated in righteous attitudes and conduct.

Faith and Repentance

We teach that faith and repentance are required by Scripture and inseparably linked graces that are granted to us as a gift by the regenerating Spirit of God that deeply convince us of our guilt, danger, and helplessness, and of the way of salvation by Christ. We then turn to God with true repentance, confession of sin, and pleas for mercy while whole heartedly receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as our Prophet, Priest and King, and relying on him alone as the only and all sufficient Savior.

Primary Preaching and Teaching Elder

THE CHURCH​

We are a church that believes in Jesus & loves God and His people

Adam joined the elders at Oak Grove Baptist Church in August of 2022. Prior to that, he served as the Associate Pastor at Sardis Baptist Church in Swansea, SC. Before entering full-time ministry, he taught social studies and coached football in both the Bismarck and Sheridan public school districts.
Adam grew up just outside of El Dorado, AR, graduated from Ouachita Baptist University with a bachelor’s degree in secondary education, and eventually went on to complete both a Master of Arts in Theological Studies and a Master of Arts in Religion/Biblical Studies from Liberty University Online.
He and his wife Kelly have three children (AJ, Eddie, and Halle), and they all enjoy spending time doing anything outdoors, whether it be hunting, fishing, gardening, hiking, or working with the dogs or horses. They are always up for an adventure and see the greatest adventure of all as having their lives spent in service to the savior.
