In tonights message, we look at four different kinds of entanglement. Foolish debates, False doctrine, fleshly defilement, and frivolous distractions. These are things we cannot avoid happening in our lives, but with Christ's help, we can avoid being entangled in these things, and overcome them in our daily spiritual battles.

To think that Christ never called anyone a fool is simple ignorance. In today's message we find that Christ called a Pharisee a fool, and got right to the point, and that was his heart. He knew how to make the outside look good, but the inside didn't match. Please tune in.

Ezra! This 15th book of the Bible is packed full of deep spiritual truths that can still apply to you today! Again, don't let the genealogies bore you. All scripture is given by inspiration of God. Each of these 10 chapters contains truths that you would do well to notice.

"...teach a just man, and he will increase in learning." "The just man walketh in his integrity..." "For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again..." There is much to learn about the "just man". Let us all strive to be like this man found throughout the book of Proverbs!

In this message, we look at a rich man in a parable being called a fool by God Himself! What was the reason for it? What made this man a fool? Please tune in.

While I and II Kings talk about what was happening with the children of Israel, I and II Chronicles talks about how these things happened in a large overview. Don't get bored with the genealogies! There is much to glean from these two books of the Bible!

In this message, we look at the life of David. We are nearing the end of David's life, and yet he still was faithful and still fighting God's battles. Psalm 18 is a powerful chapter that shows just how much David trusted in God for his protection.

In this message, we learn what a foolish man is. He is a man who bases his life on anything else except for the Bible. If you reject the Bible, you are a fool.

We continue our study in the Old Testament. This is the second part of the study of I and II Kings with some encouragement to follow the leaders that we have in our lives as they follow Christ.

In this message, we take a look at Joab. Was he on the right side? Was he on it for the right reasons? What kind of man was Joab at heart?

On the road to Emmaus, there were two men who were sad. Why were they sad when they had Jesus in their presence? Because they were slow of heart to believe all that the prophets had spoken. Is the same true for you today? Are you slow to believe the Word of God? Please listen to this sermon.

We continue our study in the Old Testament! I and II Kings are books filled with history, and this is just the first study in these books. We will continue the study next week!

Absolom is a perfect picture of the outcome of every person who decides to go against God's word and will, and live their lives the way they want to rather than what God wants them to. We would be wise to take heed.

Can just anyone be automatically qualified as a laborer in God's harvest? Or are there requirements for that? There are definitely requirements for a child of God when it comes to doing the work of the Lord! And these are things we must take heed to if we ever want to be used rightly for His work.

We continue to go through our Old Testament survey, and we take a look at mainly David's life, and learn many profound truths about him and so many other things in this book!

When DO things go as planned? We like to have our lives planned out months if not years in advance! But that is not how God works! and if you decide to no go according to God's plan, you will miss out on many blessings. Please tune in!

The story of the children of Israel wanting a king before God wanted them to is a very sad one. And it is a story that we should glean from and take heed lest we make the same mistakes. To refuse God's authority is to accept the authority of a dictator, which is what the children of Israel found out as a result of their rebellion against their Almighty King.

This is our midweek Bible study, and we are pleased to have Missionary Chris King with us. In this study, we take a look at I John 1. And the whole theme of the chapter is fellowship with God. There is no better gift besides salvation than the gift of fellowship with God for the believer.

David had five loyal men at his disposal, even when it seemed all Israel was against him. And they were simply faithful to do what David had instructed them to do. It's not rocket science for the Christian! We must simply follow every command God gives us.

What are you looking for in this life? Are you looking for that blessed hope? What is “that blessed hope”? It is the coming of our Savior! Listen to this message taken from God's word on how we MUST be living towards His imminent coming and be ready for it!

We apologize for no podcast in OT survey last week, but this is a continuation of our study in the book of I Samuel. As always, there are so many lessons to be learned from this book, and there are many pictures of Christ in this book, including the extraordinary example of David. You can watch the first lesson about I Samuel on our YouTube channel (Bonners Ferry Baptist Church).

We find that what refreshed David throughout the whole account you will hear of in this message, was his heart of worship toward the LORD! Don't miss the important truths in this message.

Galatians 6 is the passage for this message. If we are going to "continue" in our walk with Christ, we must learn to "faint not". How do you do this? By spending time with the One Who has all strength and power! Listen to this message, as there is much time spent in His Word dealing this subject.

This is a message preached at the Moyie Springs City Hall in Moyie Springs, ID. It is another clear picture of what the gospel is like. Christ is our Shepherd, and we must put our trust in Him to take us to His fold.

In this message, we find servants who had true devotion to King David. They had their own ideas about how they could serve, but were willing to do whatever their master, the king, told them to do!

As we continue to see different accounts of Gods people continuing, we look at the first church in the book of Acts. They continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine, breaking of bread, prayers, in one accord, etc. Listen to this message to learn how to continue, from God's Word!

The book of Ruth is refreshing and wonderful after you come out of the dark book of Judges and you can see that there were still men who followed God rather than doing what was right in their eyes, like Boaz! We see such a clear picture of Christ throughout this Old Testament book! 

We can see that David had complete trust in God when he said this! This was in reference to Absolom, his son that wanted him killed. But David had trust in God to keep him safe, therefore he had no fear of his son! Please listen to these powerful truths pulled out of God's Word!

Peter had some complications with his trust in Christ, and this would be a revealing and proving time for him! But we find that in the end, Peter realized that his Master always knows best, and he forsook all, and followed Him.

While the Book of Joshua was a book of victory, Judges is a demonstration of how horrific it can be when a nation does "that which is right in their own eyes".

Hushai was a friend to David when David's son was rebelling. Tonight, we will look at how they were friends, and how that applies to our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Do you struggle with living for Christ? Are you distracted with the things of this life? This message will encourage you greatly to focus, not on what is now, but to continue till Christ comes.

This evening, we look at the Book of Joshua. While Moses was like a shepherd, Joshua was more like a captain for the people of Israel. The key theme throughout the whole book of Joshua is victory, and Pastor Neal talks about some practical ways to have victory in our own lives. 

In this message, David is being pursued by his own son. Yet, David was was not afraid because of where his trust was. 

Again, the theme for this church this year is to continue in the word of Christ. And this message deals with the key verse for the theme: John 8:31. We must continue in Christ's word to be His disciples indeed, and then we shall know the truth, and the truth will make us free!

We continue in our Old Testament Survey, and study the book of Deuteronomy! There are so many wonderful truths to be taken from this last book of the Pentateuch, and as always, pictures and shadows of Jesus Christ throughout.

Not much is said in the Bible about the man Ittai, but we know enough about the man to say that he was faithful to the right king, and would not turn back, even when he was given freedom to do so, and this helped him earn incredible trust from King David himself.

The theme for Bonners Ferry Baptist Church for 2026 is to “Continue” in our walk with Christ. The passage for this message is John 6, where at the end of the chapter, almost all of Christ's disciples left because they were offended at Christ's words. But there were 11 that would continue even after the death and resurrection of their Master, because of Who they knew they were following.

Christ said that if a man put his hand to the plough, and looked back, he was not fit for the kingdom of God. These are strong words, but true ones. This message is on how we must continue to follow God's will, and no looking back.

Is it ever right to run? Is it ever not a cowardly thing to do? Yes! In fact, there are many times we are commanded to flee certain sins. In this message we see the necessity to run away from the rule of Absolom, and it was no cowardly thing to do, but a sign of complete allegiance to the true king.

Can anyone impress God? Is it even possible? It seems so if you look at the faith of the Canaanite woman in Matthew 15. Christ was amazed at the faith of this woman, and appalled by the hypocrisy of the Pharisees in the same chapter. It is faith that is the method of our Master.

In this morning's message, we looked at how Joseph was persuaded that what God said was true. Tonight, we look at his persuasion, or faith, in action. He obeyed what God said, no matter how drastically it changed his plans he may have had.

Joseph was a just man, so there were some doubts in his mind when Mary was with child. But when the word of the Lord came to him, all his doubts were dispelled, because he was persuaded of the absolute fact that God's Word was always right. Please tune in.

In this lesson, we look at the book of Numbers in the Old Testament. We see the generation of the children of Israel finding blessings and curses as they disobeyed, and we also see battles fought by the second generation and much more packed into this fourth book of the Pentateuch.

We see another example of how something representing the world can pressure someone representing the Christian into total defeat spiritually. In this message, we look at the sad story of Samson.

Who is the "prince of this world"? It is Satan and none other. He is a rebel and the father of lies. And even he will be overthrown by God, and therefore all his followers will. And God has been gracious enough to send a Comforter to reprove the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement, to help deliver the world from the clutches of this prince.

In this lesson, we look at the book of Leviticus. We see in this book, the theme is Sanctification and Separation.

All of us struggle with sin. But we must remember where our victory comes from. Christ overcame sin, and now offers us his strength to overcome the temptations that are common to man.

The life of Lot is a very sad story. He is known for his worldliness, and his very sad ending.    In this message, we will see how Lot continually pushed to get his way with the angels, and yet, did nothing to resist the evil men of his day. 

When we look at ourselves, we can think that we are pretty good people. But when we look at the righteousness of God, we quickly realize that we have fallen way short of the Glory of God. 

In this lesson, we look at the book of Exodus. We see in this book, the theme is Deliverance and Redemption. Over and over, God would provide, but the people would complain.
